The Sound of Violence Lyrics by VANISH

Familiar Faces

2019

[Intro]
I feel anxious
No one can help me now
Help me now
[Verse 1]
An ambiance of streetlights (Streetlights)
Hover over us like guillotines while we drive
All the crows on the power lines
Telling me to run for her life
And it'll save mine
And it'll save mine
(And it'll save mine)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
Cheers to all the ghosts
That keep me awake at night (Keep me awake at night)
Talking softly in your voice
You're crawling up my sheets
Oh God, it's the same damn bite
[Post-Chorus]
Bite
I think you're somewhere here hiding
Away from me
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
I promised you I wouldn't ever cave in
I can tell you like the sound of violence
Take all that you can and leave me starving
I've been down this road before, your hands are blood red
[Chorus]
Cheers to all the ghosts
That keep me awake at night (Keep me awake at night)
Talking softly in your voice
You're crawling up my sheets
Oh God it's the same damn bite
[Post-Chorus]
I scream, fight for me
Oh God I can't do this on my own
God I can't do this on my own
Whoa-oh-oh, oh, oh
[Bridge]
What's the point of losing sleep?
I think I'd rather just forget how to breathe
Breathe
Yeah
[Outro]
(Cheers to all the ghosts
That keep me awake at night
Cheers to all the ghosts
That keep me awake at night
Cheers to all the ghosts
That keep me awake at night)
If I keep living this way
I'm falling close to the grave
I know that I'm not the same
I know that I'm not the same
If I keep living this way
(Cheers to all the ghosts)
I'm falling close to the grave
I know that I'm not the same
I know that I'm not the same
Let's go
(You're safe in my arms
You're safe in my arms
You're safe in my arms
You're safe in my arms)
I promised you, I promised you
I wouldn't ever fucking cave in (Would never cave in)
Oh, I can tell you like the sound
Like the sound of violence
