Lyrics of The Suffering by Coheed and Cambria
verse
Is there word or right to say
Even in this old-fashioned way?
Go make your move, girl, I′m not coming home
Would things have changed if I could've stayed?
Would you have loved me either way?
Dressed to the blues, day to day with my collar up
Decision sits, so make it quick
A breath inhaled from an air so sick
I cursed the day that I′d learned of the web you spun
(You had your hold 'til bleeding)
pre-chorus
(Hey, hey) if it was up to me
I would've figured you out
Way before the year clocked out
Oh, I hope you′re waiting
(Hey, hey) if it was up to me
I would′ve never walked out
So until the sun burns out
Oh, I hope you're waiting
verse
Would we have lived as a child would care?
With this vial to drink, I dare (oh where have you been?)
Only to cry all alone with your taste on tongue (oh, where have you been?)
(Oh, where have you been if it hurts to be forgiving? Bye)
Should we try this again with hope? (Bye, bye)
Or is it lost? Give up the ghost
And should I die all alone, as I knew I would?
(Then burn in hell, young sinner)
pre-chorus
(Hey, hey) if it was up to me
I would′ve figured you out
Way before the year clocked out
Oh, I hope you're waiting
Oh, I hope you′re waiting
chorus
Listen well, will you marry me? (Not now, boy)
And are you well in the suffering?
You've been the most gracious of hosts
You may be invited, girl, but you′re not coming in
Listen well, will you marry me? (Not now, boy)
And are you well in the suffering?
You've been the most gracious of hosts
I may be invited, girl, but I'm not coming in
pre-chorus
(Hey, hey) if it was up to me (you had your hope)
I would′ve figured you out
Way before the year clocked out
Oh, I hope you′re waiting
(Hey, hey) if it was up to me (you burned it up)
I would have never walked out
So until the sun burns out
Oh, I hope you're waiting
chorus
Listen well, will you marry me? (Not now, boy)
And are you well in the suffering?
You′ve been the most gracious of hosts
You may be invited, girl, but you're not coming in
Listen well, will you marry me? (Not now, boy)
And are you well in the suffering?
You′ve been the most gracious of hosts
I may be invited, girl, but I'm not coming in
Listen well, will you marry me? (Not now, boy)
And are you well in the suffering?
You′ve been the most gracious of hosts
You may be invited, girl, but you're not coming in
Listen well, will you marry me? (Not now, boy)
And are you well in the suffering?
You've been the most gracious of hosts
I may be invited, girl, but I′m not coming in
outro
And you′re not coming in
