Asleep On The Frontlines Lyrics – The Bled

Asleep On The Frontlines Text

---

We'll keep on talking this out
But I've already made up your mind
I've been trying to gnaw through my tongue
To stop from confessing my crimes
And these conversations are wearing me down
What did my patience prove
If it's just another bed of nails
Always the silent treatment
Always the easy way out alive
If there's no further questions
I'll be on my way home.
And it's just another sharp pain
And it doesn't hurt like it used to
When I was a desperate man
When I still believed in the meaning of the word
You tried to warn me you and your consequences
If I am outnumbered if I am defenseless
If I come here unarmed in the middle of the night
On my own standing on the front lines
I will die if you invite me down
If it'll please the crowd I only go through this
For your amusement it doesn't hurt like should
When you're throwing your stones around
I'm alone trying to sleep it off
But it's hard not to shake at the sound of it breaking
When you're living in a house of mirrors reflecting all of my failure
I will concede to my replacement congratulations
It's over and over again I was in for the long run
When you cut me down another sharp pain a servant to our thrones
Always the one that got away always apologizing
Always the silent treatment always the stubborn child
I kept my mouth shut tight always the one
That got away always the bed of nails I only have myself to blame
