Silversun Pickups - Substitution

Silversun Pickups - Substitution

There's a vulture perching right off screen
And it's bitter and whispers chaotic things
And it reached in quick ain't it worrying
it's so easy to see, everyone can
agree, stop listening

I know you've heard it before
But then it wasn't enough
You don't wanna be held back from the substitution
I know you've seen this before
And now enough is too much
You don't wanna be set back when
the substitution comes I'm sorry

You're a marionette in the center of
All the twisting strings coming from above
It may seem too deep to recover from
it's so easy to see, everyone can
agree, just let it go

I know you've heard it before
But then it wasn't enough
You don't wanna be held back from the substitution

I know you've seen this before
And now enough is too much
You don't wanna be set back when
the substitution comes I'm sorry I'm sorry

When the voices start spinning just be aware
I have brought enough stones for us to share
That one's grinning that one's
burning, aim for the throat
Let him choke on the stones that we are to throw

It's the great downfall
Not the overthrow
If you shoot them down
It'll make you soar

When reactions turn into hurricanes
And the middle course seems a little tame
Whether full or empty it's all the same
it's so easy to see, everyone can
agree, you're not to blame

I know you've heard it before
But then it wasn't enough
You don't wanna be held back from the substitution
I know you've seen this before
but now enough is too much
You don't wanna be set back when
the substitution comes I'm sorry

Why do people come here and say that they listen to metal, but they also like this song? You don't have to stick to one type of music "genre". Music is music. Listen to everything.

To people who are new to the Silversun Pickups:

1. Yes, the singer is a guy.

2. No, I doubt he got kicked in the balls to hard when he was a kid.

3. This is an amazing band.

@MrSlayingsanta lol

Both are grammatically valid, but the meaning is different. If casually suggesting this means I'm "trying to look smart" then you must have some pretty deep insecurities.

[MrSlayingsanta]

@LHCLEGION You fucking idiot and or but in that sentence made sense. Stop trying to look smart. Its reaallllyyy sad actually mate.

[SourToiletSeat]

I like this song.

[LHCLEGION]

@neatborrito No they didn't.

[neatborrito]

@LHCLEGION Shut up.. Everyone knows what he meant.

[LHCLEGION]

@skylinefolife I think it needs to be rephrased. "I listen to metal, AND I like this song."

Big difference in meaning, when you substitute 'and' for 'but.'

[skylinefolife]

@artisticagi lol. I love you too. Hmmm... What about tomorrow? Will you love me tomorrow? *sad face* haha
