Silversun Pickups - Substitution lyrics
[Silversun Pickups - Substitution lyrics]
There's a vulture perching right off screen
And it's bitter and whispers chaotic things
And the weeps turn quick into bullying
It's so easy to see, everyone can agree
Stop listening
I know you've heard it before
But then it wasn't enough
You don't wanna be held
Back from the substitution
I know you've seen this before
And now enough is too much
You don't wanna be set back
When the substitution comes i'm sorry
You're a marionette in the center of
The twisting strings coming from above
It may seem too deep to recover from
It's so easy to see, everyone can agree
Just let it go
I know you've heard it before
But then it wasn't enough
You don't wanna be held
Back from the substitution
I know you've seen this before
And now enough is too much
You don't wanna be set back
When the substitution comes i'm sorry
I'm sorry
When the voices start spinning, just be aware
I have brought enough stones for us to share
That one's grinning, that one's burning
Aim for the throat
Let 'em choke on the stones
That we are to throw
It's the great downfall the big overthrow
If you shoot them down it'll make you soar
When reactions turn into hurricanes
And the middle ground seems a little tame
Whether full or empty, it's all the same
It's so easy to see, everyone can agree
You're not to blame
I know you've heard it before
But then it wasn't enough
You don't wanna be held
Back from the substitution
I know you've seen this before
But now enough is too much
You don't wanna be set back
When the substitution comes i'm sorry
And it's bitter and whispers chaotic things
And the weeps turn quick into bullying
It's so easy to see, everyone can agree
Stop listening
I know you've heard it before
But then it wasn't enough
You don't wanna be held
Back from the substitution
I know you've seen this before
And now enough is too much
You don't wanna be set back
When the substitution comes i'm sorry
You're a marionette in the center of
The twisting strings coming from above
It may seem too deep to recover from
It's so easy to see, everyone can agree
Just let it go
I know you've heard it before
But then it wasn't enough
You don't wanna be held
Back from the substitution
I know you've seen this before
And now enough is too much
You don't wanna be set back
When the substitution comes i'm sorry
I'm sorry
When the voices start spinning, just be aware
I have brought enough stones for us to share
That one's grinning, that one's burning
Aim for the throat
Let 'em choke on the stones
That we are to throw
It's the great downfall the big overthrow
If you shoot them down it'll make you soar
When reactions turn into hurricanes
And the middle ground seems a little tame
Whether full or empty, it's all the same
It's so easy to see, everyone can agree
You're not to blame
I know you've heard it before
But then it wasn't enough
You don't wanna be held
Back from the substitution
I know you've seen this before
But now enough is too much
You don't wanna be set back
When the substitution comes i'm sorry
