As my eyes burn with frustration
And my heart is growing tired
In my head there's all the contradictions
in my hands a mess of splinters, chrome and wire
Dead guitars (x4)
Well I played her like a song
But now the song is gone
And I sung every one of her praises
Oh, she left me on empty phrases
Dead guitars (x4)
Well I see all these new faces
And they look to me like a row of trees
Of all the friends that have now departed
You're still the one that means the most to me
Let the silence steal the moment
Let it gain the upper hand
And I will surrender to that language
It's the only one I really understand
Dead guitars (x8)
Take a life in all its glory
All its sweetness rare and dear
Now I know that all that noise was just a cover
You came and went so that we might hear
[00:00.310] As my eyes burn with frustration
[00:09.779] And my heart is growing tired
[00:19.407] In my head there's all the contradictions
[00:29.074] in my hands a mess of splinters, chrome and wire
[00:38.259] Dead guitars (x4)
[00:54.849]
[00:57.598] Well I played her like a song
[01:06.494] But now the song is gone
[01:15.895] And I sung every one of her praises
[01:25.473] Oh, she left me on empty phrases
[01:34.215] Dead guitars (x4)
[01:51.814]
[02:11.874] Well I see all these new faces
[02:20.902] And they look to me like a row of trees
[02:30.348] Of all the friends that have now departed
[02:39.832] You're still the one that means the most to me
[02:46.113]
[02:49.439] Let the silence steal the moment
[02:57.379] Let it gain the upper hand
[03:06.734] And I will surrender to that language
[03:15.917] It's the only one I really understand
[03:24.758] Dead guitars (x8)
[04:02.008]
[04:55.745] Take a life in all its glory
[05:05.376] All its sweetness rare and dear
[05:14.272] Now I know that all that noise was just a cover
[05:23.295] You came and went so that we might hear
[05:34.814]
