Artist: Coheed And Cambria
Album: The Afterman: Ascension
You made this harder than it had to be,
The absolute marker, etching into me,
You flashed your colors at me way prematurely,
And now I know what you’re up to, and it feels so good, it's right.
We've got your number written,
Reset the system screaming,
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
These sitting ducks in season,
The march of little children.
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
The truth will cut you down to pieces,
184, let's burn it down,
And if I can't keep from living with this regret,
I'll need to change the way I think about us.
I listen to them chuckle as they eat,
They're judgment hiding behind eyes and dirty teeth,
You think I care for all these phony pleasantries,
When I want nothing to do, I want nothing to do with your life.
We've got your number written,
Reset the system screaming,
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
These sitting ducks in season,
The march of little children.
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
The truth will cut you down to pieces,
184, let's burn it down,
And if I can't keep from living with this regret,
I'll need to change the way I think about us.
Baby, I'm bad company
And you don't have a mark,
You're the prettiest thing I have ever seen,
Come with me, I want to make you dirty.
184, let's burn it down,
I'll need to change the way I think.
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now
(Hang your secrets, hang 'em up, hang 'em up now)
“Let’s burn it down!” Here’s where they pick the album back up after some dead space. Equal parts mathy guitar and heavy drums in the intro, leading to an overall balance between metal-rock instrumentation and emo-pop lead vocals (plus more signature gang-vox); this is why Coheed has diehard fans.
