"Rise, Naianasha (Cut The Cord)" lyrics - COHEED AND CAMBRIA
Hell wakes you up choking
And you feel so afraid
Help, is this my place?
Searching to find what to say
Am I okay?
The fear, boy, you own it
Guilty, you find an angel in your arms
She's plucking her wings
She laughs while you go replace them
But there's something in your way
The mark that you missed, caution you throw
Lost in the dark, begging to go
I'm gonna tell ya, tell all
There's a change of the guard
So you play your part
Assuming you know where to start
As pieces start coming apart
She'll stitch those wings to your heart
But it's not what you wanted
She looks deep in your eyes
She sees all your flaws
And pulls you together
Say what you want 'cause you are
Go on now, let Heaven know
The beautiful boy that you are
[Chorus:]
Call me and I'll be there
When you need your great, your great destroyer
Oh, my baby boy, don't you cry
It's you and I in a do-or-die, overboard
Now cut the cord
Remember that blank space
Where static invades
All that you succumbed
Dead mind once trapped in a change
In the dissaving grace
As you live out all outcomes
The forever you want
Is the never you'll get when you learn
That you're gonna be so alone
Oh, when your mother and I go
But you've got to believe
You've got to be strong for her
[Chorus:]
Call me and I'll be there
When you need your great, your great destroyer
Oh, my baby boy, don't you cry
It's you and I in a do-or-die, overboard
Now cut the cord
[Bridge:]
Silence your tongue
Divide your lives
And gift us all your love
Your day has come
Open your mind
And do what must be done
[Pre-Chorus:]
Call me and I'll be there
I'll be your great, your great destroyer
Oh, my baby boy, don't you cry
It's you and I, do-or-die
[Chorus:]
Call me and I'll be there
When you need your great, your great destroyer
Oh, my baby boy, don't you cry
It's you and I in a do-or-die, overboard
Now cut the cord
[Outro:]
Over and out there
You'll meet your great (I'm your great destroyer)
Your great destroyer (I'm your great destroyer)
Oh, my baby boy, don't you cry
It's you and I in a do or die
Overboard, now cut the cord
Cut the cord
Cut the cord
Cut the cord
