100 Words (From Sing The Sorrow Sessions 2003) - AFI
This is the final night boys
We are the cracks in diamond walls
I tried to illuminate but the shadows kill
I'm overshadowed
See how I blend in with nothing
Now beautiful boys let's destroy
We'll shine as the lucite breaks and falls
Raise the new glitter god with the golden tears the tears that swallow
A smile that's touched so warms nothing
(Yesterday I burnt the sky)
Looked to the ground and wrapped it around me
(Still today I) have so much to burn
(Yesterday I longed to die)
Fell to the ground and the ground caught me
(Now today I) question why I fell
I fell
Deities fell to decoys
Tainting what's pure Let's
Cleanse them all
Infinite life reclaimed as the shadows kill they're overshadowed
We'll burn as they fade into nothing
(Yesterday I burnt the sky)
Looked to the ground and wrapped it around me
(Still today I) have so much to burn
(Yesterday I longed to die)
Fell to the ground and the ground caught me
(Now today I) question why I fell
So what can help me
To understand somehow
Why it always pains me to breathe
Pains me to breathe
We're no longer confined
Because yesterday I
I burnt the sky
We're no longer confined
Because yesterday I
I burnt the sky
Oh
(Yesterday I burnt the sky)
Looked to the ground and wrapped it around me
(Still today I) Have so much to burn to burn to burn
(Yesterday I longed to die)
Fell to the ground and the ground caught me
(Now today I) question why I fell
I fell (We're no longer confined)
(Because yesterday I)
I fell (I burnt the sky)
I fell
Because yesterday I
