Between the Buried and Me
Mordecai
[Part one "Day one"]
Asleep mid-sentence, her words fell apart
No one is listening anyway
This day will soon turn black and my 'wants and needs'
Will spill on my burning ashes

I learned to be selfish today
I learned to be alive

These things I care for are for
My personal gain and my personal happiness only
Why should I sit in your chair and satisfy your standard?
I've done it all before and I've confused my self a thousand times

The tragic day that I call morality just doesn't do it for me anymore
No more choices, just standing in the cold
The day will turn black and I will have either lived or died

Asleep mid-sentence, my words fall to the ground
Swept into this dreamland
Economic satisfaction, never succeed
But happiness has its place
Justice will not lie in your corner

[Part two "Day two"]
Throw myself in the corner
I have nothing to complain about here
A tragic day seems too peaceful to most
Spoiled ambitions turned my heart to black
Living dreams
Loving dreams
Awakening
To what I've always dreamt of

Living dreams
Loving dreams
Awakening
To what I've always dreamt of

The familiar sound
The familiar sound
Of the lovely love
From the love of my life
Will keep the notes coming

From the reciting of the show
From the plip and the shevanel
From the grind that annoys
And the sarcasm they all hate
