Lose Your Head

Lyrics

[Intro] Bittersweet memories Reform an amalgam of loyalty Curses cast in the name of spite Leave scars, unspoken, through the dying night Generations come and go Yet tears stay frozen through melted snow Leave your baggage with the dead But be sure not to lose your head [Verse 1] Through the pews of an old, rustic room Echo memories from before the womb (Dios te salve, Maria) Carving scars beneath a truth Could you say, in a way, it's a game Of rewriting pain in distorted hues (Dios te salve, Maria) Searching for a holy view [Pre-Chorus 1] Obscure the parts within your heart An apostolic work of art You know that it's the only way to Run away, run away See through the superficial fluff Laced with a sacrificial snuff You know that it's the only way to Run away, run away (Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha) Bleeding through the rubble (Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha) Scared of causing trouble (Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha) Knowing that the house of God (Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha) Was built upon the martyr's claws [Chorus] But, even with the days she couldn't ever run away Aching for the storybook ending she yearned for Rereading every page trapped in a melancholic daze Still praying Oh, Lord, please tell them that I say I need a family there for me, ah (l know we're still grieving these feelings But why can't you all understand) This decapitated apathy (Repeating again and again) As the cycle takes my head [Verse 2] I live as a lamb for the lucidly damned Still losing my grip from this body They all point and laugh, but can you be mad? I'm just not the way that they want me I'm running from time, but really, I'm fine I'm not gonna lie, I'm pissed that God made me this way in a morbid exchange Of theatrics and heavenly fate [Pre-Chorus 2] Obscure the damage in your heart A vitriolic work of art You know that it's the only way to Hide away, hide away See through the superficial fluff Laced with a sacrificial snuff You know that it's the only way to Hide away, hide away (Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha) Bleeding through the rubble (Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha) Scared of causing trouble (Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha) Knowing that the house of God (Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha) Was built upon the martyr's claws [Bridge] I wish you loved me in a way that didn't hurt I wish you knew me more than the parts of me you burned I know you're all trying to change, so it pains me to say how I've given up I've found solace in feeling stuck [Chorus 2] But, even with the days things never ever seem to change Done waiting for that storybook ending I yearned for Tearing out every page while cursing out a daemon's name Still praying Oh, Lord, please hear me when I say That, even with the days she couldn't ever run away Aching for the childish ending she yearned for Rereading every page trapped in a melancholic daze Still praying Oh, God, I'm begging them to say We'll be the family that you need, ah (l know we're still grieving these feelings But why can't you all understand) This decapitated agony (Repeating again and again) As the cycle takes my head [Outro] Generations come and go Yet tears stay frozen through melted snow (l know we're still grieving these feelings But why can't you all understand) Leave your baggage with the dead (Repeating again and again) But be sure not to lose your head
