Champing The Bit Lyrics - Singles - Every Time I Die

We drew a crowd 

The crowd drew the blood 

Fawning swindlers 

There's a shark in the stream where the newborns are baptized 

Who let the flatterer into the gallery on our sweet sixteen? Take him away 

Get him against the wall for the witnesses 

This is doom in a borrowed suit 

It's a pickup line at a funeral 

Cannibals along side the catwalk 

But it's OK we're got old blood and our veins are rooted to the hornets nest again 

New love is tasteless 

We're wearing down 

This is the year of the party crasher 

What is charm? Where are the heroics?

What is harm to the perfumed wrists of the stoics? 

Designer impostors find us twitching in the claws of the snake 

A fin is circling around the floor 

It appears we've lost our way 

The tide is swelling and we've fallen asleep on the shore 

Get inside, someone's yelling fire in the theater 

Oh dear god. Everybody stay calm 

Tell your husband that his screaming just invited it in 

The horsemen are crashing through the gates 

We had better learn to play dead 

Our hands are reeking of rapture 

It's dripping from our chin 

The tragedy of infant hearts 

But it's OK we've got old blood and our hair is woven to the same hotel again 

We're wearing down 

This is the year of the party crasher 

It's you and me for the first time in history 

We're history
