First I told to myself there was no more than the sound Of the wind through an open door, and if no one entered it was no crime, at least it was none of mine, and all I saw I kept at bay, an empty heard in an empty space, there was no reason for me to live, I had nothing to give, nothing to give I closed my eyes and to my surprise my heard was beating I was still alive Was there really nothing I could do? No, it can't be true! I've been lying to myself, lying to myself for so long I've been lying to myself, lying to myself And it can't go on 'Cause I'm lying in state, I've been lying in a state of grace I'm lying in state I've been lying to myself and it can't go on At first I tried to blame the world for all evils That were unfurled, flags of sin blowing in the Wind over church and state, the rich and the Great, but when I listened all I really heard was My own voice and my own words, sometimes Begging for love, sometime screaming with hate, screaming with hate I don't trust that voice in my head, it's not mine it's the voice of the dead And why do you ask me what I think is true? I learned it all from you! I've been lying to myself, lying to myself for so long I've been lying to myself, lying to myself and it can't go on Cause I'm lying in state, I've been lying in a state of grace I'm lying in state I've lying to myself and can't go on In the end, you are my only friend and all I see is you, and all I have to give, my friend, I will give it to you. Who do I mean? Who am I talking to? How could it be more plain to you? Wake up. Look in your heart. Who are you? What is your name? If I take a shit in your perfect world it's only so You'll know me by my smell And though you turn away like you don't understand You know all too well You don't want to look, you don't want to touch You don't want to pay cause it costs so much You just smile and wish me well Well, you can go to hell! 'Cause I'm lying in state, I've been lying in a state of grace I'm lying in state I've lying to myself and can't go on

Phenomenal track! Big fan for years, but didn't discover this version until about two years ago. Win!

I wish the vocals on the the worldhood of the world version were as raw as on here. I sorely miss that bit around 4:10 and the voice cracks that follow. Might just be because I've been listening to this version for so long, though.

Perché il sole continua a splendere? Perché il mare si precipita a riva? Non sanno che è la fine del mondo? Ora non mi ami più Perché gli uccelli continuano a cantare? Perché queste stelle brillano in alto? Non sanno che è la fine del mondo? È finita quando ho perso il tuo amore Mi sveglio la mattina e mi chiedo Perché tutto è come prima? Non riesco a capire, no non riesco a capire Perché la vita va avanti come va? Perché il mio cuore continua a battere? Perché questi miei occhi piangono? Non sanno che è la fine del mondo? È finita quando hai detto addio Perché il mio cuore continua a battere? Perché questi miei occhi piangono? Non sanno che è la fine del mondo? È finita quando hai detto addio

AWESOME bootleg (ish). how to write a song and present it to your brother? ROYAL BLOOD are trying this BIG BOOTS on!

a lot of bands present the song like this...its actually well recorded. he's putting so much into it, could be a radio broadcast or a peel session. Worldhood is too thin, its only flaw--the songs are there
