You're Listening To A Dead Man Speak Lyrics & Chords By Clann Zú

They say true understanding
Only comes when you're alone
Well, here you'll find me standing
Lacerated to the bone

I'm lacerated to the bone
I never learn from my mistakes

I should have kept my distance,
Should have left well enough alone
And now I watch you feed me
The last remnants of my soul

I'm lacerated to the bone
I never learn from my mistakes

From your mouth, your words escape,
From the ground, you walk away

I'm lacerated to the bone
I crawl across this concrete floor
I hear me say, "I should have known
I've seen this happen all before"
I'm breathing in this vacant hole
Where no one comes and no one knows

I should have seen the weeping walls
And closed my ears to desperate thoughts
And now I'm breathing in this hole,
A strange corner far from hope

A headcrush man with hopeless fears
I should have known to leave this place
This bitter air this vacant space
I should have left without a trace

I should have run when you touched me,
A perfect touch laced with defeat,
A single touch to make me weak
You're listening to a dead man speak

I never learned from my mistakes
You're listening to a dead man speak
I never learned from my mistakes
You're listening to a dead man speak.

(I should have fuckin' known)

You're listening to a dead man speak
You're listening to a dead man speak
You're listening to a dead man speak
You're listening to a dead man speak

You're listening to a dead man speak
You're listening to a dead man speak
You're listening to a dead man speak
You're listening to a dead man speak
