BLACKBIRDS lyircs


feelthless

Recommended Posts

I shiver and shake through warm or cold

I'm alone, on my own

In every mistake I dig this hole

through my skin and bones

it's harder starting over

than never to have changed.

 

With blackbirds following me

I'm digging out my grave

they close in, swallowing me

the pain it comes in waves

I'm getting back what I gave

 

I sweat through the sheet as daylight fades

as I waste away

they trapped me inside mistakes I made

thats the price I paid

its harder starting over

than never to have changed

 

*chorus*

 

That's what I have. The rap parts are pretty difficult with the current song quality so we'll have to wait for a good portion of those lyrics.

 

Edit - Here's my attempt:

 

I drop to the floor like I did before

Stop ----------------------- and I can't be more

What I want and what I need are a constant war

Like a well full of poison, --------------------

The blood goes thin, the fever stings

and I shake from the hell that the habits bring

lay the sick ones down, the bells will ring

put pennies on the eyes let the dead men sing.

Here's mine...changed it a bit to what you put since I some of your parts make more sense.

 

Drop like get up(?)

Take to the streets

On Iraq(?), yeah, get up

Face full of teeth

When it's hot(?), yeah, spit up

Tasting the beat(or heat?)

Like a beast(?)

(No idea what he's saying here..)

Speak from your gut like a rush of blood

Gave red on the (something) to the ones you love

Lay the sick ones down and the bells will ring

Put pennies on their eyes, let the dead men sing

 

 

I shiver and shake through warm and cold

I'm alone

On my own

In every mistake I dig this hole through my skin

And bones

 

It's harder starting over

Than never to have changed

 

With blackbirds following me

I'm digging out my grave (or brain?)

They close in, swallowing me

The pain, it comes in waves

I'm getting back what I gave

 

I sweat through the sheet as daylight fades

As I waste away

It traps me inside mistakes I made

That's the price I pay

I drop to the floor like I did before

Stop, watching I'm coughing, I can't be more

What I want and what I need over constant war

Like a well full of poison, a rotten core

The blood goes thin, the fever stings

And I shake from the hell that the habits bring

Lay the sick ones down

The bells will ring

Put pennies on their eyes, let the dead men sing

Drop, like get up, take to the streets

?

When they hock that spit up, pace to the beat

?

Pretty sure that's 100% correct outside of the intro - a couple corrections in the second verse and I filled in all the blanks in Mike's rap in the bridge. I think what I have so far for the intro is correct or close to it, but I'm really not sure about the 2 lines I haven't filled in.
