Lyrics to "at the seams"

You can listen to the live recording of "at the seams"

For a bit of fun, try and work out the lyrics.

I'll post my attempt later

A band member may come on later and laugh at our attempts.

Go for it

i tried it earier, i think its on one of the pages in the main forum but here is what i had...

i started these on the main forum but i will finish them now

anger, subsidence
wishing i;m convincing
I'm complaining about nothing and everything and anything
i'll always be hopeless regardless of the things i've said
making _____________ _______
just to see you makes my body shake
ooooo
____ _____ _____ ______
don't hold back now
_____ _____ _______

breaking me apart peice by peice
don't hold back now
making me feel better
rip through my heart
rip me at the seams
don't hold back now

running searching (working?)

i gave up after that, its too bad of a quality so i am sure that is all wrong





How do you communicate those emotions that are so intense that no physical expression or series of words can even scratch the surface?

ill give it a try:

full of anger, subsiding
wishing i'm convincing
while complaining about nothing and everything and anything
i'll always be hopeless regardless of the things i've said
Making __________ (Like Jorge i have no clue) ____
just to see you makes my body shake
ooooo

Waisting all your time, watch me fade
dont hold back now
_______

breaking me apart peice by peice
don't hold back now, you're
making me feel better
rip through my heart
rip me at the seams
don't hold back now, you're

Learning, searching, and your working
on putting off the hurting and coserving
yourself and me and all I see
you're calling me selfish
___(I cant figure out the rest of the verse)

Waisting all your time, watch me fade
dont hold back now
_______

breaking me apart ripping me at the seams
don't hold back now, you're
making me feel better
rip through my heart
rip me at the seams
don't hold back now, you're

ripping me at the seams (etc...)

and then the Chorus again x2

thats what i got.

Great job, Ian. This looks nearly perfect, in my opinion.

Since I don't know how to make different coloured letters, I just put cap locked words in place of all the things I added or changed. These are all complete guesses...I'm no good at figuring out lyrics most of the time.

One thing I think is that there is a small word between "time" and "fade" in the pre-chorus. possibly "and"

Edit: Sometimes when I read the "i'm convincing" in the second line as I listen along it sounds off and sometimes it sounds right. Other times it sounds like "conviction". Err...too much thinking. starting to hurt.

yeah, it sounds like that to me too, but convincing made more sense lyrically.

thanks Reivax i think i got more of it:

you're calling me selfish
SUBDUED BY YOUR OWN SELFISHNESS

but im not actually sure if he says "you're calling me selfish", it almost sounds like "you're calling them selfish", but what do i know?

That's what I was thinking, but the "selfishness" may make sense...but it sounds like he is saying 3 words like "Self __ __ "

It's probably "me", rather than "them", but, as you know, it's really hard to pick up.

i do too, but i think it's just a wierd sound that was produced between the lead and backup vocals.

Well, either way I don't think this song is going to be cracked until we get some official lyrics or hear a more clear version.
