Thrice- In Years to Come

Again, it is far past the due date for extra credit on the song lyrics assignment for the blog posts but I still have the urge to share what is one of my favorite songs. Thrice is a melodic post-hardcore band from Irvine, California. Their lyrics and music have influenced me a great deal as I made the decision in high school to become a songwriter and continue my work as a musician today.

This song, as most in this genre are... is about feelings for a girl.

I would really suggest listening to this because it is filled with so much more emotion in the singer's voice and the variation of the music tempo.

thanks,

Josh Morgan




i want to take the bullet,the one aimed straight for your heart,

i want to meet the wolves halfway,and let them tear me apart.

but that's not the way they do it here.

i want to lay on the tracks,feel hot steel screaming at me,

expose the bones on my back,let me show you what i mean

yeah its a different kind of love,

i want to climb barbed wire fencesand warm our hands in blood.



and this is my gift,is asking you to fix my ruined hands.
and its a gift that keeps on giving,and its a gift that keeps on giving,
and its a gift that keeps on giving,and right now its all i have to give.



i want to write the perfect song,and play it just for you,while you are tangled up in sleep.i need you more than ill ever knowuntil i stop breathing my lungs will take you for granted.
