lyrics

These are the words for my Carol Ann
The girl I broke in half
Oh I'm afraid there's nothing left
No pieces to put back in place

I was a monster
The things that I did I regret, I dismiss

Oh, it's a shame about Carol Ann
And all she could have been
She soared with such grace as her body sailed
Through the windshield from the passenger seat

I was a monster
Through neglect I replaced her love for these lonely days

Oh, she'll be forgotten
Oh, she'll be forgotten

Young hearts beat on
To a love that everybody wants
But we can't have it all
So we take what little we can

Oh, mother did ya see em comin'? Did ya see em?
Mother did ya see em sneakin' through the back door?
Stealing the time we wish we spent, but lost it all

Oh oh ooh
Oh oh ooh
The time we wish we spent, but lost it all
Oh oh ooh
Oh oh ooh
The time we wish we spent, but lost it all

Mother did ya see em comin'? Did ya see em?
Mother did ya see em sneakin' through the back door?
This time we'll reinforce the walls!

Don't turn the page, love
Its words don't hold your fate
The two will become one
And from their world you will escape

Through the walls of your heart
I will tear you apart!
Through the walls of your heart
I will tear you apart!

Through the walls!
Through the walls!
Through the walls!

Through the walls!
Through the walls!
Through the walls!
Through the walls!

This is what Coheed and Cambria wish they sounded like. Once the manic progressive metal slams into you like a flood of molasses, it's impossible to deny the powerful urgency of this amazing album. gebs
