Hounds Songtext
von The Flatliners

I sit and I wait
like a loyal dog
I′d be here anyway
My words excavate
age old feelings
Boring, fleeting, all the same
Shadowed whispers shake the ground beneath
and fall on ears who have grown numb to everything (like me!)
Don't always wanna be
drawing lines in the street
it′s getting embarrassing
being the one to piss and moan over your dial tone!


Like a loyal dog I sit,
sit and wait for this to break to break to break to break
I admit I'm full of shit
because I can't wait for this
to fall so I can sing out it′s mistakes!
So inadequate
that our story stopped and stalled
start it again
I′ll extend my hand
once these tears have shed
and when I fully understand
the value of an ear that is open
drowning my inhibitions
in a broken bottle rather than my friends

Like a loyal dog I sit,
sit and wait for this to break to break to break to break
I admit I'm full of shit
because I can′t wait for this
to fall so I can sing out it's mistakes!
Yeah!

I just can′t escape
all these weathered words
they tend to complicate
violent winds shape my vocabulary
to celebrate a bastards embrace!

Like a loyal dog I sit,
sit and wait for this to break to break to break to break
I admit I'm full of shit
because I can′t wait for this
to fall so I can sing out it's mistakes!
