Sufficiently Breathless

And that discussion was all true
Until you decided to bust in with the old you
Now you're judging them all through your gut
And it sucks that you're stuck in with no shoes to walk in so
There ain't nothing to soften the blow
From that trailer burning coal to the rocks in the road
But you expect them to follow in your pussy-foot steps
Which couldn't ever work because you wouldn't look left

And yes there was love in the air
You should have took breaths
You know you should have
I said yes, there was love in the air
You should have took breaths
You know you could've

And yes, I'm leaving to rest
In the heart of your machine
While its bleeding to death
Until its carcass is clean
I'm feeding the rest of its still beating chest
To the lesser of your subjects

And they're bench pressing their grudges
Repeating the reps and blending them in with their crutches
And preaching their steps
I step lightly, tonight, there just might be a jailbreak
And more than likely its fail safe
Full speed ahead till the sail breaks
Take a deep breath
Man that ocean there has a stale taste
Of a centuries old war
Where it was either all for one
Or one on all fours

Now, they were trained to kill all the silence
Using nothing but silk gold and diamonds
They use their skills to build roads to islands
And I ain't gonna leave til the hills close their eyes

So double-knot the laces in your boots when you leave
Cause trouble's got the ace of every suit in its sleeve
So quit shooting the breeze or living lucrative dreams
And just loop and just loop and just looping it seems

Now, they were trained to kill all the silence
Using nothing but silk gold and diamonds
They use their skills to build roads to islands
And I ain't gonna leave til the hills close their eyes
