gill landry - dead language lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
(la la la la la lie
ooh
la la la la la lie
ooh)

[verse 1]
you give yourself away
with a hunger in your eyes
for the love that you betray
with those cold, poetic lies

[verse 2]
and you take what you can get
but it’s never what you thought
you never seem to know
if what you want is what you want

[chorus]
and all those pretty words
like poison in my ear
might as well be a dead language
i can’t feel a thing i hear

[verse 3]
it’s in the letter that you mail
all those broken promises
just ships without a sail
anchored to a dark abyss
[verse 4]
now you turn the bl++dy soil
always wantin’ more
sufferin’ the spoils
of a long+forgotten war

[chorus]
and all your pretty words
so cold and insincere
might as well be a dead language
i can’t feel a thing i hear

[bridge]
your dreams of isolation have left you all alone
in a prison of your making, masquerading as a home
now the die have fallen, the writing’s on the wall
if you can’t face your fear, you can’t see yourself at all
can’t know yourself at all
can’t see yourself at all
(la la la la la lie
ooh
la la la la la lie
ooh)

[verse 5]
don’t talk to me of love
it’s an illusion that you miss
since all there ever was
is only what there is
[chorus]
and all your pretty words
won’t change that, my dear
might as well be a dead language
i can’t feel a thing i hear

[outro]
(la la la la la lie
ooh
la la la la la lie
ooh
la la la la la lie
ooh
la la la la la lie
ooh)
