Let's call this the quiet city:
Where screams are felt as a wave of stoplights
Drive through the streets as gunshots punctuate the night
The sides we take divide us from our faith
And the morning dove gets caught in the telephone wire
Asleep you set the fire in your own house
And the night was a knife that cut
And I'm paralyzed
Cross out the eyes
Blur all the lines
Tearing this canvas from the wall
We crossed out the eyes
Put lines through these cries
We pulled all the leaves from the trees that fall
A silent dance that we did into this hospital bed
Hear voices from another room
"It happens all the time"
but you leave in the sand
the leaves fallen
counting down, days to live
Drain the blood from this valentine!
"We can rise on the wings of the dove
See blue skies getting caught in the trail of all this smoke
We can rise like candles in the dark-yours always"
and an envelope marked with your new address
Asleep you set the fire in your own house
And the night was a knife that cut
And I'm paralyzed
Cross out the eyes
Blur all the lines
Tearing this canvas from the wall
We crossed out the eyes
Put lines through these cries
We pulled all the leaves from the trees that fall
(Cross out the eyes!)
(Blur all the lines!)
(Cries!)
It was the first time face to face
I'm crossing the line
Talking to the other side of death
Hearing the words that choke memories into flatlines
I'm calling your name hoping for something to wash these dreams of you away
(till we die!)
(memories in flatlines!)
Cross out the eyes when you said all these lies
Cross out the eyes when you said all these lies!
Fence was blown down in a winter storm and this field
(cross out the eyes!)
Stretches out of this world into the sound
(A trace of!)
What can we do put a stop to the coming white days
(In a love song!)
I'm hoping for something to wash these dreams of you away
(Stretches out of this world
Lets drive back the dead
Stretches out of this world
Stretches out of this world)

Review about Cross Out The Eyes Lrics mean so much to me. | Reviewer: Oofft x | 9/16/09
I Think the lyrics are what makes this song to be honest. It reminds me of this boy that i really like. I dont know why, it just does, maybe it's supposed to do that.
The lyrics really are sensational. He was talking about someone he had lost. I love this song, and if he's reading this, i love you so much Nathan. I dont think you understand howmuch haha. Well, bye. See you in form. Nathan <3
well as for me as a writer i think that song is about moving of loved one and most likely about breaking up or suicide of beloved person and frurtration that comes with that, about all those feelings that come when you're not together with your soul mate
either way, this song is about losing someone that person held dear

waaaa
i love that song
i think it's 'bout the unfairs and global warming;
the human situation on these days and
'bout the carelessness of people about the others...
thats my point of view
I have absolutely no clue what this song is about. i feel like the lyrcs are really general and random. It's a really good song but i just don't undertsand the lyrics
This song has an unparalleled breakdown that instills a spectrum of emotion in my soul.
I give it a 7/6.
