Pan.a.ce.a Lyrics

-------------------------------------------------

Say Anything

To the lover I left on a queen-sized mattress

Warm, yet I am gone

Think me as evil, call me what you will

An asshole, selfish, bastard

Say something, anything

Show me how to begin to want to say anything to you

Don’t be salty; you tasted so sweet before

But oceans cried I can’t ignore

So think me as evil, call me what you will

An asshole, selfish bastard

Say something, anything

Show me how to begin to want to say anything to you

You must understand, this is not because of you my love

Everything changed; you are not to blame

I just don’t like all I have become

Vulnerable in your shadow, weak and defenseless, I feel so static

I need to get gone.

You must understand, I leave not because of you it’s just,

Everything changed; you are not to blame

I just don’t like what I have become

Can’t you understand it’s not about you?

Say something, anything

Show me how to begin to want to say anything to you.

What More

What would kill a man I took in stride.

You’re insatiable, never full, unsatisfied

Mustered all your breath to sigh

“I never loved you”.

I gave you time, I gave my all

Will it ever be enough for you?

Well what more would it take for you to speak your mind

‘Cause I’m tired of never getting anything right

Living in this fucking lie

What more can I do?

I gave you time, I gave my all

Will it ever be enough for you?

Well what more?

I’ve taken everything in stride

What more will it take to ease your mind

I have been with you all the while

Here I am standing by your side

What more can I do?

I gave you time, I gave my all

Will it ever be enough for you?

Well what more?

---------------------------

Battle Cry

Conquering my fears again

Barely I am

On knees and hands on back again

Cowered I’m there

Shut your mouth and listen up

Poison feeder

Life is not expendable

We are your people

I hear the victims of your battle cry

They are still alive

We are the victims of your battle cry

Wandering is some foreign land

Soul crusader

Propagating through the sand

Your propaganda

Shut your mouth and listen up

Poison feeder

We are not expendable

We are your people

I hear the victims of your battle cry

We are still alive

We are the victims of your battle cry

You must hear us out

We’re dying, we’re screaming, all for you

Sent our children to die for your cowardice

Send yourself in their stead you coward

I hear the victims of your battle cry

We are still alive

We are the victims of your battle cry

We are the victims, why won’t you listen?

-------------------------------------------------------

Statuette

Leaves are falling down, almost winter

Bitter cold out

Awfully different now that you are frozen

Truth be told

I have my measure

Intolerance the implement

To begin my endeavor

To keep you up where I want you

Keep my castle

I keep you up where I want

You came here looking for a friend

Teeth are bright on each an every glad-hand

But you were not the only one

Feigning pretense

My countermeasures

Intolerant of insolence

Will begin my endeavor

To keep you up where I want you

My keep, my castle

Keep you up

A statuette where I want you to stay

Keep you up

Where I want you

Keep my castle

Keep you on a pedestal

Where I want

--------------------------------

4 Reasons

There’s a hole in the ceiling tile

Falling in with my borders

All is lost in spite

Of patiently pondering your

For reasons you can but won’t explain

You’re better off alone

Four reasons too numerous to say

You’re better off so I’ll go

And leave you to rot and stink in your filth

Patient, I’m your medicated

You aren’t gonna try

But you doubted me and I’m

Pondering your four reasons you can, but won’t explain

For reasons too numerous to say

You’re better off so I’ll go away

In the silence you wanted to build but you broke

So I’m childish, that’s one

I’m ignorant, that’s two

Seeking decadence, that’s three

And I’m loving it, that’s four

So I’m childish, so what

I’m as ignorant as you

And this decadence I seek

Is with love and can’t be wrong

------------------------------------------------

Day of Remembrance

You fell on the day of my first step

And I’ve walked in freedom from then on

Over the sod of the family plot

The only foundation you passed on

Mongers observe from the outside

They are not ready to die

What beautiful sarcophagi we now dance upon

Raise your glass to the sky

This is the day of remembrance

One epitaph etched in each headstone

The wine pouring out like my heart

Over the sculptures adorning sepulchers

Where you now rest so I’d live on

As mongers observe from the outside

They only send us to die

What beautiful sarcophagi we now dance upon

Raise your glass to the sky

This is the day of remembrance

Don’t forget their sacrifice

Cadavers won’t dance if there’s no wine

We’ve selfishly consumed it all

When in sobriety we’ll find more

We’ll find another war

What beautiful sarcophagi we now dance upon

Raise a glass to the sky

This is the day of remembrance

Drink up, remember.
