Coheed and Cambria › Lyrics › Three Evils (Embodied in Love and Shadow)

Across the floor in the hand of where we drove the drill
A cautious ear to the mouth of your confession
Think of all the things we put him through
In the face of his God would he tell the truth?

Still recorded were the words that dribbled out his kiss
When eyes go blind in this man of what could once become
Sever the limbs off his torso in sleep
And burn what remains so the world may now see

No longer, will we wait for your answers
Back to the hell where you've come from
Think of all the times you've once had
Write them in a letter that says goodbye

You'll listen to reason
While you're face down in the dirt
You'll stomach the hurt
And break for him here just how, how much he's worth

Slowly discarded were the remains of his lonely youth
Among the alley where the dwellers scare to notice
Picture a young boy in pieces and streets
With leveled malfunctions no name to be called redeemer

We'll fix him restore him
With the love is no other
Think of all the things you did before
Write them in a letter that says reborn

You'll listen to reason
While you're face down in the dirt
You'll stomach the hurt
And break for him here just how, how much he's worth

Following you across the interstate walking away
I'll fire on
Following you across the interstate walking away
I'll fire on
Following you across the interstate walking away
I'll fire on

On the wrong way out
On the causeway to never where
On the wrong way out
On the causeway to never where
On the wrong way out
On the causeway to never where

Dear my friends in the time we've spent
Forever after beyond this when will our nightmare ever end, end, end?
Dear my friends in the time we've spent
Forever after beyond this when will our nightmare ever end, end, end?

Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops
Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops
Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops
Forever you will, forever you will learn

Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops
Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops
Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops
Forever you will, forever you will learn

Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops
Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops
Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops
Forever you will, forever you will learn
