Lyrics:
-FIDDLE WHILE IT BURNS-i see the place behind your eyes
where the hidden monsters lie
i barely hold on to my skin
a routine that's too broken in
moods descending from above
angriest at the things we love
it's too late now for me to sleep
every sentence hides the spite beneath
another widow of a worthless cause
we're fragile people filled with flaws
who else could love me except you?
and who else would put up with you?
you came alive for me again
it was far too late to save anything
we'll just fiddle while it burns
cause what we had will not return
are we people, or are we turds
that just float through life without a word?

what a great collab. I LOVE the vocals here, bringing those lyrics to life. I really like how this song builds with moving intentionality. Nice pyrotechnics too! I wish it was about twice as long - thanks!

There's something about a human voice singing this passionately and well that's just wonderful. You guys are a really tight and talented band and I think it's awesome that you stepped back, kept it simple and let the music support the vocal this time around, because it's one hell of a performance. Terrific song and very tasteful arrangement.

loving the haunting sounds on the intro. oh your voice is a lot more mellow and sad on this i like that. this has a very emotional quality. i got the email that you posted a new one and finally made my way over here. think this will have to go with my other songs by you on my ipod :) awsome lyrics as always. wow lots of emotion on this one.. if i hadn't been thinking about the song in a way write a comment i think i'd have cried.. almost did at the end.

for all of the listens and comments! i hope you all know how much it means to us. glad your all enjoying this one!
chance, glad it tugged on your heart-strings a bit...that's what it was meant to do. greg really delivered on this number when it comes to expressing his feelings.
thanks again all!
sincerely,

I forgot to ask you for more accoustic stuff.This is really great.Reminds me of Alice in Chains, a band I miss a lot.
an enjoyable tune for me. a departure, and a good one. i liked the post- seattle scene/ folk feel of the tune. it was like 2 a.m. at the bar. go home, while we play this last song for all of you.....
very nice.
