NEVERENDER - Coheed and Cambria

This is my favorite song on the cd, so I took extra care in making sure it was
correct. The extra squeals in the verse were added in editing, I'm sure, so I
didn't put them in. Enjoy!

INTRO PT. 2
VRS
When you've gone about things all wrong bury them here
With a lifetime you would never regret
In savoring sleep what do you mean I toss and turn everywhere?
VRS W/ L
I'll miss you when you're gone in pretending that you meant the world to me
With that you'd call me a liar and in the making mistakes you'll rest incomplete
HORUS
(I'll be home) In graver mistakes dear mom and dad I write you in the letter that states
(I'll be moving on) When the new day's begun forget your son when he's out on his own
INTRO PT. 2
VRS
When the hand reads 7:30 and your night begins to sink in the short but faster fall
VRS W/ L
Anxious but calm retort to a mirror that frames your face baring the finest swell
When the day begins to break like the tears that run across your cheek
Stand straight and imagine you then
In the things and the way they could have been when the thoughts they race across your chin
Here in the Neverend
HORUS
(I'll be home) In graver mistakes dear mom and dad I write you in the letter that states
(I'll be moving on) When the new day's begun forget your son when he's out on his own
RI 1
Point your gun in another direction now that you've cried yourself to sleep
RI 2 W/ L
Point your gun in another direction now that you've cried yourself to sleep
INTRO PT. 1
Here in there after the fire
INTRO PT. 1 W/ L
INTRO PT. 2
(Before you walk home) Peace and figuring will he be home again?
(Signal loss and stereo) With wide open windows will she be waiting for
(The sounds surround the overpass)
With severed arm placement when the day's dark old and dead
(A dead man against you) We'll write her a letter with long time passing
HORUS
(I'll be home) In graver mistakes dear mom and dad I write you in the letter that states
(I'll be moving on) When the new day's begun forget your son when he's out on his own
RI 1 W/ L
Point your gun in another direction now that you've cried yourself to sleep
Here in there after the fire
RI 2 W/ L
UNTIL FADEOUT
(I'll be home to say I love you and I'll be moving on)
And I'll be bigger
