Story Behind the Song
This song is quite a bit longer than the others and took about three weeks to write.
We recorded a good majority of it live since we had worked so hard rehearsing it after we had finished writing it. Therefore it did not take long to record. We doubled up on all of the parts with the exeption of the drums to give it a nice fat sound. The lyrics speak for themselves!
Lyrics
I would never dream, never be the one to
Give a little love when I’m not respected
You could never be, never me, hell no son
When you could never stare at your own reflection
I can feel it, I can see it, I can face it
If you could only do the same
What’s beneath us, what’s beneath it, what’s beneath you
I know what you hide, know what you try to disguise
Uninspired and tired describe you
With your nevermind and decline to motivate
Blaming everyone for your own failed actions
You have become everything that I love to hate
You can try to, tell a lie to
I see through you
You always seem to do the same
What’s beneath us, what’s beneath it
what’s beneath you
And you have no one to blame
Try to lock your mind
but I’ll break on through
Rehash others thoughts
never speak for you
I will pick you apart and look inside
Death is in control of your fragile life
Try to hide your soul but I’ll persist
Moment to moment live to exist
You can never mask what lies beneath
Choking on your failure, dying to breathe
Blow you’re fucking brains out through the hole in your arm
Numbing all the things you think cause you harm
You could never see, never dream, hell no punk
You’re cracked lip smile, on the tile, needle sunk
I can be it, do believe it, I embrace it
If you would only do the same
What’s beneath us, what’s beneath it, what’s beneath you
I know what you hide, know what you try to disguise
Going down a road
that does not lead back
Common sense and dignity
things that you lack
On raw palms, your head leads
slowly you crawl
No indications of grace
as you fall
I can feel it, I can see it, I can face it
If you could only do the same
What’s beneath us, what’s beneath it, what’s beneath you
And you have no one to blame
Try to lock me out but I’ll railroad through
Final judgement now, what will you do
Strung out, strung up, you had enough
Obvious panic, I call your bluff
Try to hide your pain but I’ll persist
Moment to moment live to exist
You can never mask what lies beneath
Choking on failure, dying to breathe
You can’t walk the line don’t try to / I can’t find the time don’t ask me
Lend my shoulder when you cry to / I can’t find the time
You can’t walk the line don’t try to / I can’t find the time don’t ask me
Lend my shoulder when you cry to / I can’t find the time
I would never dream, never be the one to
Give a little love when I’m not respected
You could never be, never me, hell no son
When you could never stare at your own reflection
I can feel it, I can see it, I can face it
If you could only do the same
What’s beneath us, what’s beneath it, what’s beneath you
I know what you hide, know what you try to disguise
Uninspired and tired describe you
With your nevermind and decline to motivate
Blaming everyone for your own failed actions
You have become everything that I love
to hate
