Lyrics: Souls Before Bodies

The following page is reserved for the lyrics to the song "Souls Before Bodies", written and performed by American metal band Triple Seven. It is the third track off their fourth full-length LP The Innocent Demons Dance.

Lyrics
Baby, you used to look so cool.

So enticing you once were.

Now the shadows crippled you.

And extracted your soul from your body.

This story's grown stale so quickly.

Considering that I've heard it before.

Kid, I'm more sharp than you think.

Doesn't this tale get old?

Spin around in place, and stop.

Double take three times.

Don't forget the repetition.

I'm turning to Page 21.

On How Conceited We Are.

It gets less boring everytime I skim through.

And way more funny.

I can recall the horrors themselves.

But not quite the scare factor.

It was probably as transparent as you.

Love at first sight is the newest doom.

Returning is futile.

No matter what occurs.

Returning is not justified.

No matter what you do.

Returning is futile, regardless of what happens.

Above me is a disembodied head.

A head that evokes familiar feelings.

The cares I give are zero.

But my own soul is at a thousand.

(Time to think this over)

Weeks went by fast.

Just like the Road Runner on acid.

The air smells of nostalgia and generic romance.

Though I can't remember your personality.

I'm able to remember everything else.

Returning is futile.

No matter what occurs.

Returning is not justified.

No matter what you do.
