    Default Are these correct? - Bury Your Head - Saosin

    Hey everyone.

    I've come here before to get some lyrics worked out, and you guys are all really cool and better at this than I am, so I'm back.

    This song is a few years old, but people have played telephone with it like crazy. Also, the lead singer has changed twice in the past few years. AND, their EP/demo lyrics are quite a bit different than their album version lyrics, and they have performed both live, too.

    There's tons of lyrics on the net for this song, but they're sooo mixed up. Most are from the EP/demo, people have mixed and matched them, and I want to be sure I'm singing the right ones here. So, if you could, please try to base your interpretation of the lyrics based on what you hear, and not Google searches.

    I've tried to listen closely, and watch this video over, and over again, reading their lips, to get my version of the lyrics. This version is the one I'm trying to get the lyrics to, not any of the acoustic/live/demo versions. I believe it's the album version. Luckily it seems they're singing the album version in this video.

    Anyway, if you guys could give it a listen and change what I've got, that'd be pretty cool. The more ears it falls on, the more detective's we'll have on the scene.

    //My attempt:

    Bury your head, bury your head
    I was feeling fine, you'll be coming clean tonight
    (And I'll be falling down with you, once again)
    Call me your valentine, call me once tonight

    And I (have then/haven't) said it's okay
    The things you said, I'm rehearsing them
    The things you said, I'm rehearsing them

    They went back on us
    (Closed eyes rolled back, couldn't step it up)
    I could know what to come on to
    When, it's the thought that emerges
    (Take back/that, couldn't step it up)
    I could never love the ion vein


    Bury your head, and the child smashed you down
    And the psalms will soon recall me again
    Fall down below
    I'll sleep tonight, when you're okay
    And I (have then/haven't) said it's okay

    The things you said, I'm rehearsing them
    The things you said, I'm rehearsing them

    They went back on us
    (Closed eyes rolled back, couldn't step it up)
    I could know what to come on to
    When, it's the thought that emerges
    (Take back/that, couldn't step it up)
    I could never love the ion vein


    They have been the one's who've seen her/enough
    This is what you call love

    They stole my lies
    (So write it all)
    They wandered around and 'round my mouth
    They stole my lies
    (So write it all)
    Stole it all
    They have been the one's who've seen her/enough

    They went back on us
    (Closed eyes rolled back, couldn't step it up)
    I could know what to come on to
    When, it's the thought that emerges
    (Take back/that, couldn't step it up)
    I could never love the ion vein


    You'll be coming clean tonight.
