Shameful Metaphors - Live at The Metro, Chicago, IL - Chevelle

Fear, it's all the same

Should I evolve to tend to these sights?

Said out loud then said again

If fate's so wrong you'll start to feel lightheaded

By my admission nothing grows

Just a longer list of unsorted laws

So why then has all my life made no sound?

And are your eyes closing even now?

My life made no sound

I fear your eyes closing

Revolting man, this sacred chain

Brought down to trial

No better man could fail the way you needed all

Keep close the vein of empty thoughts

The finest river, the ravens tend

All along insisting we're worlds away

So why then has all my life made no sound?

And are your eyes closing even now?

My life made no sound

I fear your eyes closing

Behold the lost, behold a band aid

Behold the lost, behold a band aid

These shameful metaphors I fought it through the teeth

Shameful metaphors biting at your heels

Shameful metaphors I fought it cheek to cheek

So why then has all my life made no sound?

And are your eyes closing even now?

My life made no sound

I fear your eyes closing
