Silhouettes lyrics

[Verse 1: Sadistik]

Silhouettes in my stomach till it pangs

Thunder reigns we think of summer when in pain

From windowpanes I think how some are just in pain

Then winter came out in the colors that I paint

Yea we runaway to try to find a better plain

In bed or plane it's fly or die in heaven’s name

Our fliers dyed by feathered wings

We buy our by and bys and go wherever zephyrs aim

And those who don't know decide by weathervane

Or put a slow poke inside a weathered vein

Whether vain or insecure the cure’s to sell the fake

Wrap it in cellophane sacrifice the self for fame

We celebrate the dead and mourn so I pour up

They said I'm plain and never more so I Poe em

I leave the Ravens, raving about my poems

To each their own but you can read my palm

They’re not impressed my stomachs tied in knots depressed

I've come to press the pressure present in my sunk-in chest

There's no treasure in this sunken chest

Under duress underdressed we can't suck in breath

In the breadth of the shrunken heads we call to you

Sonic booms is what the knocks turn to

We’re nocturnal dizzy from the crop circles

Acid burns we're taciturn and non-verbal

Still we mill through the mildew

They're frail with the brail but they still say they feel you

What you don't know can kill you

That one-in-a-mill you can't come from that milieu

They told us we could be anything

They always lie through their teeth

They told us we could chase any dream

And then we died in our sleep

[Hook: Lige Newton]

I sit upon my pedestal

Await the day you don't come home

Your shades fade into your throne

Your silhouette and what's soon to become

Your scent lingers as the Sun goes down

Your shape fades and times goes on

Your body burns at the break of dawn

And I've lost track of where we are

Your scent lingers as the Sun goes down

Your shape fades and times goes on

Your body burns at the break of dawn

And I've lost track of where we are

Your scent lingers as the Sun goes down

Your shape fades and times goes on

Your body burns at the break of dawn

And I've lost track of where we are
