When The Last Words Are Sighs
Parabelle Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I hope you listen
I hope you learned a lesson
That's paid for when my silver coins
Hit the floor and all I control

Be damned before it really happens
You'll find higher walls, higher ground at the lowest point
Feel my heart sinking in
Just feel my stomach turn!
Feel my arms breaking in (no!)
Feel my stomach turning
When the last words are sighs
It really makes you wonder

I hope you finish
I gotta hope you never finish
He came in with a silver gun
Hit the floor and all I hope
Be damned, just like it never happened
You'll form high walls, high hopes at the lowest point

Feel my heart sinking in
Just feel my stomach turn!
Feel my arms breaking in (no!)
Feel my stomach turning
When the last words are sighs
It really makes you wonder

All the fame you ravel in
All the worlds a stage of sin
I don't know where you are
Where you are

Fell my heart sinking in
Just feel my stomach turning!
Feel my arms breaking in (no!)
Feel my stomach turning
When the last words are sighs




And when the minutes are brought to life
It really makes you wonder!
