Velvet Covered Brick Lyrics - Lowborn - Anberlin

Cyclical 

Stuck inside a never ending rhyme 

But you're comfortable 

Just another decomposing alibis 

Sing yourself to sleep 

Count the days gone by 

But outside of your walls passes real life 

So here's a velvet covered brick 

Death comes to us all too quick 

Here's your chance to live, but I heard you say oh 

"We're heading nowhere 

It's not close to them 

Even horizons can fade 

Hope says she's never a saint 

They're all waiting on a prayer 

If we're heading nowhere" 

Turbulence 

Am I causing you to think outside a cell for once 

Just feel comfortable 

Dissolving years like no one else before 

And I said, lead to where you are 

Lead your way through this 

But fear and fail has made you its captive, it's passive 

So here's a velvet covered brick 

Death comes to us all too quick 

Here's your chance to love, but I heard you scream, oh! 

"We're heading nowhere 

It's not close to them 

Even horizons can fade 

Hope says she's never a saint 

They're all waiting on a prayer 

If we're heading nowhere" 

Even horizons can fade 

Hope says she's never a saint 

They're all waiting on a prayer 

"We're heading nowhere 

It's not close to them 

Even horizons can fade 

Hope says she's never a saint 

They're all waiting on a prayer 

If we're heading nowhere
