And I Told Them I Invented Times New Roman (Tree City Sessions) Lyrics by Dance Gavin Dance

Tree City Sessions

2016

[Chorus: Tilian, Jon Mess]
By now you know that I am cold
Take me out now, I've dropped the mast down
And now I'm found
Take me out now, I've dropped the mast down
[Verse 1: Jon Mess, Tilian]
Duck down, then hide behind the file cabinet
Duck down, then hide behind the file, down
And without ever letting go, I knew you'd fallen
Duck down, then hide behind the file cabinet
Duck down, then hide behind the file, down
And without ever letting go, I knew you'd gone astray
Stranded here in this cold atmosphere
Waiting for the lifeless words to come from your mouth
Enduring every sound
[Verse 2: Jon Mess]
This is not why the cast is hollow
Sending the rats to follow under the weight of all these eyes
Fry
[Chorus: Tilian, Jon Mess]
By now you know that I am cold
Take me out now, I've dropped the mast down
And now I'm found
Take me out now, I've dropped the mast down
[Verse 3: Tilian]
I'll lay without understanding
I don't know why I feel this way
Oh, lay down, girl, and take my world
I know why I can't see your face
I've placed every mole there is to place on your wasted body
Oh, lay down, girl, and take my world
I know why I can't see your face
[Verse 4: Jon Mess]
As the window, left shattered now
We saw the withered body try to shout
You thought the price of your life was devout
And told us some things you can’t live without
And was this what was best for us?
And was this what was best?
[Verse 5: Jon Mess, Tilian]
(Rest where you ought to be)
Just let it show (Block out your misery)
I’ll bring you far (Wait for the call)
(You left in the hallway)
Well, I’ll go for it
(People, they change)
I’ll beg you when you know (I would still be ashamed)
I’ll beg you when it shows (To let the weight of the world)
Well, I’ll go for it (Rest on your shoulders)
And I don't believe the lies
I don't believe the lies
I’ll die for you
(I’ll fight 'til the war is over)
(I’ll fight 'til the war is over)
And I don't believe the lies
(I’ll fight 'til the war is over)
I don't believe the lies
(I’ll fight 'til the war is over)
It’s staged for you
[Outro: Jon Mess]
Left at my feet rests the soul of my brother
Vengeance will fall for the deeds of another
