If You Could See Into My Soul Lyrics

1, 2, 3, 4

I hear you choking on your words again
The secrets in your throat
And I really wish you'd say
What you're thinking

We've been down this road
So many times before
My stomach can not take it
I've been killing time
You've been crossing lines
You say


Get ready, get ready, get ready for this
I'm taking out my dagger
Just say it, just say it, just say it for me
I'm holding it up to your throat
are you ready, are you ready, are you ready for this
you don't wanna hear it
just say it, just say it, just say it again
It will tear your soul apart again

I'm leaving you out in the cold again
I'll let you freeze to death
I wont let you see the flames
Just the chimney
Where there's smoke there's fire
But I'm such a good liar
You cant read the signals
And my lips are sealed

Saying words that deal
Your shame

Get ready, get ready, get ready for this
I'm taking out my dagger
Just say it, just say it, just say it for me
I'm holding it up to your throat
Are you ready, are you ready, are you ready for this
You don't wanna hear it
Just say it, just say it, just say it again
It will tear your soul apart

Stick to your guns
You've been betting it all on a long shot
Since day one
You gotta call a spade a spade
There is no ace up your sleeve
How can you believe you will win

Get ready, get ready, get ready for this
I'm taking out my dagger
Just say it, just say it, just say it for me
I'm holding it up to your throat
Are you ready, are you ready, are you ready for this
you don't wanna hear it
Just say it, just say it, just say it again
It will tear your soul apart again
It will tear your soul apart
I will tear your soul apart
It will tear your soul apart
Tear your soul apart again

Silverstein is a 5-piece post-hardcore band from Burlington, Ontario, Canada; formed in 2000. The band name was taken from the famous children's author Shel Silverstein.

After several lineup changes, the band acquired Billy Hamilton, a local fan who learned of the band's need for a bassist on the Internet message board "The 905 Board" (an Ontario area outreach board which used to be for local musicians). In Christmas of 2001, he joined the band after Shane Told helped him learn the music for the songs. Following a rehearsal on Boxing Day (December 26) in 2001, he officially debuted with Silverstein. The next spring, original guitarist Richard McWalter left the band to move to Victoria, British Columbia to study engineering. He was then replaced by Neil Boshart, childhood friend of Shane Told. The new lineup recorded a second EP, When the Shadows Beam, in preparation for their first tour in Eastern Canada.

The band then signed to Victory Records in October of 2002 with a complete lineup as Hamilton attempted to complete his secondary education one semester early. The January after, the band recorded their full-length debut CD When Broken Is Easily Fixed, released on the Victory Records label.

In 2005 the band performed on the Never Sleep Again tour with bands such as Aiden, Hawthorne Heights and Bayside—a tour during which Bayside's drummer John "Beatz" Holohan would be killed. In January-February 2006, they toured with fellow Canadians Simple Plan in Europe. They then toured Canada with the Taste of Chaos Tour, and also toured Europe, Japan, and Australia.

The band toured on the 2006 Vans Warped Tour, in support of their current studio album Discovering the Waterfront and an EP compilation 18 Candles: The Early Years. The Early years compiles the band's first two self-financed EPs with some acoustic and live material as well as single remix of the Discovering The Waterfront hit Smile In Your Sleep. Discovering the Waterfront was re-released in September 2006 with an extra song, the band's cover of Lifetime's Rodeo Clown and a DVD.

In 2006, Silverstein was nominated for a Juno Award in the "Best New Band" category, but lost to Bedouin Soundclash.

In Fall 2006, they headlined The Never Shave Again Tour, along with Aiden, It Dies Today, and He Is Legend. Following completion of their third CD, the band played a few shows in the spring, and then engaged in an all-summer tour with Rise Against. The band toured the United States in Fall 2007 with From Autumn to Ashes and then went on a month-long European tour with Blessthefall.

Following tours of Australia and Japan in January 2008, the band played their first "Cross-Canada" headlining tour with Protest the Hero, Ill Scarlett and The Devil Wears Prada, which sold out across the country. They recently completed a U.S. tour with A Day To Remember, Protest the Hero and The Devil Wears Prada. Protest the Hero dropped off the Tour and Pierce the Veil took over for them on a few show dates. They completed a 2008 Europe tour in for May and June, including several festivals, and are playing a limited summer festival schedule.

In September 2012, the band had announced that Neil Boshart had been fired and would be replaced by Paul Marc Rousseau, who also joined Billy Hamilton on backing vocals. The band achieved moderate success with their second studio album, Discovering the Waterfront, which was nominated for a Juno Award and reached No. 34 on the Billboard 200 charts, with the following two albums charting at similar positions. Silverstein has sold over 1,000,000 albums worldwide.
The band left long-time record label, Victory Records, in 2010; and after a period with Hopeless Records are currently signed to Rise Records.
