Cursive - The Casualty

THE CASUALTY

The night has fallen down the staircase
And I, for one, have felt its bruises
Equilbrium; inebriated
Our social graces have been displaced

As we sink deeper into the drink
The volume increases....
Night time resurrects fault lines
Silent wars -- rumble somewhere below
The surfaces verses...
The surfaces verses...
The shoe is dropped, lungs explode
Shards of words of a shattered voice
And there's still a hole where the phone was thrown

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah...
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah...

The moon is rising, a revolution
I close my eyes and the room is spinning
You're screaming:

"Sweetie, the moon has raped me --
It has left its seeds like a tomb inside me
So I must learn to abort these feelings
This romance is bleeding..."

Night time triggers the land mines
Bedroom wounds -- lovers like brigadiers
Marching two by two...
Marching two by two...
A soldier's down
Flood gates burst
I've said some things I wish you'd never heard
Like, "There's still a hole where the phone was thrown."
It's growing as we speak
And it's sucking us both in
A vacuum of sorrow to swallow up the day

AND TO EVERYONE WHO ISNT A FAGGOT

if you like this song i suggest  you buy cursive's domestica. the casualty is the first track and its a concept album so if you like this song the whole cd is pretty much talking about the same thing but you have to listen for yourself word peace

Whats with the "faggot" disclaimer dude?

These people piss me off at times too, but sinking to their levels is only a last resort.

@zurzan i bet you think chad kroeger is a fucking god and that nickelbacks lyrics are the holy grail... yup, called it.

indie is just a bunch of fuckos form pitchfork media with bland aspirations. cursive is...i don't know, power depression rock, with the insides ripped out and electricity buzzing thru the soft and intimate flesh. lol

[tootiekorps]

Favorite Cursive song. Has a unique feel to it, and it leads to The Martyr :D

Also the lyrics are really awe inspiring. Wonder what Tim was going through :|
