DEAD FRETS - The Darkest Side of Town

We came to settle down
On the darkest side of town
We laid our weapons down
But for the one I keep around
We're the carnivores who feed
Making dead and dying breeds
We're the enemies you need,
And the secrets that you keep
Screaming from the shadows now,
You wonder how the silence got so loud
The devils on your shoulder sell you out
(We did then, we do now)
It seems like love to me
Only contradictory
Everything we say we mean
We know we don't believe
Thoughts without a doubt
That can't be said out loud
They gag and tie you down
Or whatever you're about
In the back rooms of your mind
Pulsing out of time
Is where we'll always find
The secrets that you never left behind
Screaming from the shadows now,
You wonder how the silence got so loud
The devils on your shoulder sell you out
(We did then, we do now)
It seems like love to me
Only contradictory
Everything we say we mean
We know we don't believe
Are we uncommon
Or are we just alive?
'Sorry for nothing'
What's one more lie?
Still, it's something
Screaming from the shadows now,
You wonder how the silence got so loud
The devils on your shoulder sell you out
(We did then, we do now)
It seems like love to me
Only contradictory
Everything we say we mean
We know we don't believe
