so our open wounds will bleed until our veins run dry.
now we have to take this thorn and tear it from our side.
agitated at the fault line still agree to disagree
you're connected to the heart but tonight will set you free.

so swallow the knife
carve the way for your pride.
now our hands are tied.
the problems lie within.
so we pray for night to start over again.

even now as i write this down
our pretensions disappear.
now our impulses will bite
at the ankles of our fear.

so swallow the knife
carve the way for your pride.
now our hands are tied.
the problems lie within.
so we pray for night to start over again.

now our hands are tied.
the problems lie within.
so we pray for night to start over again.
(words are spoken words are broken down)

so lets make this night
be our best mistake.
so lets take the time
to wipe the blood away.

now our hands are tied
and our world is caving in.
now our hands are tied.
the problems lie within.
so we pray for night to start over again.
now our hands are tied
and the problems lie within.
(words are spoken words are broken down. broken down. broken down.)

"so lets make this night
be our best mistake. " That is one of the strongest few lines in their entire CD

im my opinion this lyric, as well as some others from this album have a very deep meaning, and although this song is, like TheReason said, powerfull, is unquestionably beautiful (at least in my opinion)

This song rocks. I really hope that SOTY ends up like AFI. Amazingly good band, but not many people know about them.

i disagree. I don't think he would be able to make songs anymore from the damage swallowing a knife would cause to the mouth, esophogus, and tongue.

Athough I am quite aware of the fact that this is just another "run-of-the-mill" sad break up song, I must admit I like it, and at times find myself singing along with the CD.
