"Shameful Metaphors" lyrics - CHEVELLE

Fear, it's all the same
Should I evolve to tend to these sights
Said out loud then said again
If fate's so wrong you'll start to feel light-headed

[Pre-Chorus:]
By my admission nothing grows
Just a longer list of unsorted laws

[Chorus:]
So why then has all my life made no sound?
And are your eyes closing even now?
My life made no sound
I fear your eyes closing

Revolting man, this sacred chain
Brought down to trial
No better man could fail the way
You needed all, keep close the vein of empty thoughts

[Pre-Chorus:]
The finest river, the ravens tend
All along insisting, we're worlds away

[Chorus:]
So why then has all my life made no sound?
And are your eyes closing even now?
My life made no sound
I fear your eyes closing

[Bridge:]
Behold the lost
Behold a Band-Aid
Behold the lost
Behold a Band-Aid

These shameful metaphors
Fought it through the teeth
Shameful metaphors
Biting at your heels
Shameful metaphors
Fought it cheek to cheek

[Chorus:]
So why then has all my life made no sound? (These shameful metaphors)
And are your eyes closing even now?
My life made no sound (These shameful metaphors)
I fear your eyes closing
