Metaphor In Parentheses Lyrics


Darkness spreads its lonely wings
On the high horizons of our hopes and dreams
As long shadows grow, now they're fading
In the twilight of our hopeful waitingThe tide is rising, the tide is risingO girl, you're needed tonight
Behind your eyes there's a light
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful girl
Beautiful girlDo what you will I'm not leaving tonight
Under the weight of a clear endless sky
Seems like we waste all our time making time
I could spend all of mine inside your eyesDo what you will, I'm believing tonight
I've left behind all the 'Whens?' and the 'Whys?'
Seems like I waste all my time making rhymes
I could spend all of mine inside these linesO girl, you're needed tonight
Behind your eyes there's a light
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful girl
Beautiful girlO girl, you're needed tonight
Behind your eyes there's a light
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful girl

Beautiful girlThough I taste my tears there is victory
Love has conquered fear, truth will carry me

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
House of Heroes creates a unique and new breed of music: verging on the safe line of pop-punk rock and blending the dangerousness of indie-style rock. They are composed of members Tim Skipper (lead vocals, guitar), A.J. Babcock (bgv's and bass), Colin Rigsby (bgv's and drums), and Jared Rigsby (bgv's and guitar).

House of Heroes doesn't just sing songs, they tell stories. Songs like "In the Valley of the Dying Sun"(telling a version of the story of Jacob in the bible) and "Code Name: Raven"(the story of a spy in the time of World War II) draw listeners in by setting stories of love, sacrifice, and war to a non-specific song set-up and engaging music. Other songs, like "Friday Night", "Faces", or "The Drugs the Drugs" show the emptiness of man's meaningless desires. Distinguished lyrics and music that backs it up, pushing it forward, give listeners a unique experience. A band not scared of being different, House of Heroes certainly distinguishes themselves from the bunch.

Releases include: "What You Want Is Now", with tracks like "Julia", "The Lead Role In The Cage", and strings-backed "Uncomfortable" make the album House of Heroes's most rock-lead album. Self- titled "House of Heroes" and "Say No More" ( a re-release of the first with extra songs) posess the most edgy, indie-rock sound, lead by songs "Buckets For Bullet Wounds", "Serial Sleepers", "You Are the Judas of the Cheerleading Squad", and 9 minute closer "Angels In Top Hats." 2010 release "The End Is Not the End" gets its name from the lyrics in the acoustic driven song "By Your Side" of the album. Tracks like "In the Valley of the Dying Sun", "Leave You Now", and epic-like "Field of Daggers" make an argument to "The End..." being the band's most creative album yet. Their most recent release, "Suburba," continues the creative trend with the rock sound of "Independance Day for a Petty Thief" to the beautiful worship anthem "Salt in the Sea." Other releases include the holiday song "Silent Night", DC Talk cover "Day By Day", and the band's most different output, "The Acoustic End EP", which includes the acoustic version of the song "If'" (from "the End Is Not the End"),"New Moon", and "Ghost." A well-worked "Serial Sleepers (Acoustic)" is available for free on freehoh.com. The band has also released "Meets the Beatles EP" which includes three Beatles cover: "Can't Buy Me Love", "It Won't Be Long", and "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da."
Rumours from the band's facebook page indicate a new EP coming sometime soon.
