shut up
The Lives Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've screamed in vain of your blood shed over these wires over the heads of crowds that you will never see. I must have wasted all my breath over and over to get nothing more than crooked smiles when we meet
We saw set in stone examples you were the first, you were the best heartbreak ever. this is the epitaph sang for you we heard your first this is your last song ever
I've taken time to warm my hands over the fire over the fires that burnt up all your memories
And I have spit up blood for this and over these matters I have screamed until I was blue in the face.
I hope you're happy and I'm proud.
Suffer I was not made for suffering I was not made to suffer get it got it go
We'll be just fine
we'll be just fine he'll be just fine we need to get some sleep so go on home.

I love this extended version. I went immediately and bought it off iTunes. Please please release a longer version of this song than the current 2:50 version available for purchase or download. It's too good to limit to under 3 minutes.
