Anberlin - Godspeed Lyrics






Burning down neverland (scatter the ashes)
White lines black tar the matches
Is this another death by misadventure
Tell me what you got, what you really got (hey hey!)
We'll rest in our graves,
Lexington course your veins
Sleepers can't just wake the dead
When needles and lovers collapse on guilty beds

Fall asleep, don't fall asleep
Don't fall asleep

(They lied when they said that the good die young)

THEY LIED WHEN THEY SAID THE GOOD DIE YOUNG!
woah-oh-ah-oh
THEY LIED WHEN THEY SAID THE GOOD DIE YOUNG!
stay with me, stay with me tonight

Burning down bridges now (scatter the ashes)
Godspeed to all you're after
Is this a life left just to remember
Tell them who you were, who you really were (hey hey!)
Kill yourself slowly over time, fashion statement suicide
She's still asleep in a Chelsea hotel
Bad turns to worse, and the worst turns into hell

Fall asleep, don't fall asleep
Don't fall asleep

(God save the eyes that dim tonight)

THEY LIED WHEN THEY SAID THE GOOD DIE YOUNG!
woah-oh-ah-oh
THEY LIED WHEN THEY SAID THE GOOD DIE YOUNG!
Stay with me, stay with me tonight

WOAH-OH-AH-OH

THEY LIED, WHEN THEY SAID THE GOOD DIE YOUNG!
woah-oh-ah-oh
THEY LIED WHEN THEY SAID THE GOOD DIE YOUNG!
Stay with me, stay with me tonight
THEY LIED WHEN THEY SAID THE GOOD DIE YOUNG!
woah-oh-ahoh
THEY LIED WHEN THEY SAID THE GOOD DIE YOUNG!
Stay with me, stay with me tonight

  36. H.... R....

    I bought this CD on accident trying to find something else completely( i think it was Rise against or Three days grace or maybe Bullet for my valentine or something)
    but i kept it because i misread one of the songs as Whisper and a Claymore and thought it sounded so BA and wanted to hear what a song called that would sound like

    honestly i really really liked the CD it was like finding a ruby buried at a beach Exciting and Confusing and Really neat

    H.... R....

    Who buys cds anymore

    H.... R....

    @xps229

    1. I'm sure someone does having a Physical copy of anything is better in the end than having something that feels like it may become temporary

    2.I didn't give context as to when this took place so~ XD

    H.... R....

    xps229 Me, this guy, and tons of others, buddy

  37. h.... ....

    lol, I remember hearing this song and wanting to learn how to play the guitar...so I went and bought one. The guitar after the second verse impressed me

  38. Z.... ....

    2016 has arrived and I still love this song! <3

  39. B.... ....

    a sad reality that I've come to know all to well. death by needle is the sickest and ugliest reality known to man.
    the false sense of peace and happiness drives us, tripping us up, stealing the very breath from our lungs, the life from our veins.
    the prison we build around ourselves in this personal he'll we've created becomes all we know.
    I've watched as the people who are closest to me go mad and follow the illusion of light strait that takes their sanity and purpose.
    I've lost everything and everyone I've ever loved chasing the needle.
    things are twisted here in this world I I thought I loved.
    this world I thought I had control of.
    I'm laying here as I watch the love of my life feed his veins with the poison that has destroyed us .
    waiting on my own turn...
    it feels as though it's too late for us... I have hope of one day recovering. . hope that we will find our way out of this hell.
    but until then,
    we are the zombies fill of pain and rage.
    we are the dead inside
    slowly killing ourselves in the name of false joy.
    we are the broken and hopeless.
    craving our own death.

    B.... ....

    I know what you mean, using the needle to chase your veins with poison, being kissed by God while watching the person you love slowly disappear, its a sad truth but i can say its never to late. I never thought id get clean but i did. You got to be stronger than the drug. A strangers opinion is honest bc there is no reason to lie. I do wish you the best of luck, sometimes its all we got.

    B.... ....

    wtf are you two on about

    B.... ....

    aris I think they're just tweakers. It's best to ignore them

  40. I.... O....

  43. T.... ....

    I can't be the only one here because of t1movies

  44. T.... C....

    They lied when they said the good die young

    T.... C....

    +Tim Collison The good do die young, they're killed off before they can influence the world around them, depending on their traits and talents they might live longer or shorter than the others but in the end, the good die young. Slap yourself in the face and take solace in knowing that you aren't one of them.

    T.... C....

    +quinnton432 k
