Thrice - Eclipse/motion Isn't Meaning lyrics

rate me

ECLIPSE:<br />

Call everyone to arms<br />

We'll fill the heavens<br />

With the poisoned dreams of man<br />

Call everyone to arms<br />

We forged these weapons<br />

With the strength of our own hands<br />

<br />

We shot the sun from the sky<br />

Apollo dead at our feet<br />

We wander lost in the rye<br />

And gather 'round in the street<br />

<br />

For centuries we watched the sky<br />

And burned to bridge the great divide<br />

<br />

Call everyone to arms<br />

We'll fill the heavens<br />

With the poisoned dreams of man<br />

Call everyone to arms<br />

We forged these weapons<br />

With the strength of our own hands<br />

<br />

Eclipse the body with stones<br />

And lay him down with the rest<br />

I smile when I am alone<br />

And she'd a tear for the press<br />

<br />

For centuries we watched the sky<br />

And burned to bridge the great divide<br />

We dug the body up<br />

We drank his golden blood<br />

And light shone from our eyes<br />

But it was not enough<br />

And we still dream of deicide<br />

<br />

For centuries we watched the sky<br />

We burned to bridge the great divide<br />

But now we burn with power and pride<br />

<br />

MOTION ISN'T MEANING:<br />

What a beautiful way to fake it<br />

This sort of graceful defeat<br />

We found a pattern out on the pavement<br />

Sound the siren out through the streets<br />

Advance in perfect nonchalance<br />

Do it together with a rifle report<br />

Don't marvel at our confidence<br />

It's troubled, bottled, and above-all deformed<br />

<br />

Tell me that you wanna stop the war<br />

But baby you can't dance if there's no floor<br />

Motion isn't meaning<br />

It's just another drug<br />

But it's all we've got...<br />

<br />

What a way to keep it together<br />

A black box, a prescription for speed<br />

We found a freeway that goes on forever<br />

Drown the demon in the deep black sea<br />

<br />

Shield your eyes<br />

It keeps burning to the rhythm of the rifle repeating<br />

Paralyzed<br />

But I gotta keep movin' if I wanna keep breathing<br />

<br />

Tell me that you wanna stop the war<br />

But baby you can't dance if there's no floor<br />

Motion isn't meaning<br />

It's just another drug<br />

But it's all we've got...we've got nowhere to go<br />

<br />

I'll take the life on the easy ship<br />

We have our guns for the moment<br />

I'll take the life on the easy ship<br />

We have our guns!
