Pierce the Veil Lyrics
Pierce The Veil
Album one-A Flair For The Dramatic
Chemical kids and Mechanical Brides
Like a rush shot through you, everyone is watching you. Told you why I see no need for the sun, I've found a reason to say. A love you light is a love soon gone, if this is it. Don't bother cause this love is a lie, I'm a chemical kid you're a mechanical bride. When every vein is red out of the blue, I held a diamond to the sun. To count the moments on account of the way you smile for me, oh, we're in slow motion when you smile for me. But oh my God I've been looking, but I still hold your breath so you won't leave. Pastel red and porn star white, ghost on the altar. We breathe don't leave, say that the night sings alone. And if there's a God, then I'm letting him go. All for you, you alone. Raise my hands, at the thought of you leaving me alone. What if I still care, don't torture me or beg me. Can you make me believe in tiring, as you fall fast asleep it reminds me. Of the slow symphonies behind me, they sing along. All the nightmares you'll see tomorrow, all the stars on your ceiling they glow. But not for you, through the trees I'll blow.
Currents Convulsive
(So) congratulations, (long) break a leg tonight. What a shame, I heard the understudy died under the knife. Crying backwards under bedroom lights, (congratulations) I don't think you'll ever wanna love me. You'd gotta listen to your doctor, doctor. Sober up and bury the empty cup, in a backyard of Seattle we used to lie. When I sew you up, don't let me. Won't step bleeding, tiny stitches that you placed into my skin. Won't let me go, oh no, oh no. And they're ruining the mood, so I'll toast every beat of my heart like a miracle. And I, I don't think you'll ever wanna love me. You gotta listen to your doctor, doctors lie. (lie) lie (lie) lie (lie) If the dollar is right, oh, my sweet little girl. Hold your mouth and you'll be alright, gather round, gather round. Ladies and gentlemen, come from far, come from wide. The moment you've all been waiting for, tonight, join us as we explore the spine chilling mystery of death. And the miracle of resurrection, please understand me when. I'd rather see you dead, than live without me. So thirsty for more. Beyond the sea blue light, I met the love of my life. She'd rather see me dead than face me, I like your starry eyes. They yell surprise, surprise. I'm in love, but not for long. Our operation, call off the operation. Our operation, call off, off, off. Another wave has turned its back on me, crashed back on the eyes of the first I see. Can't count on anything (if your delicate eyes don't blink someday) For you, I'd count the salt (they might as well be gone) Under the sea (might as well be gone)
Yeah Boy and Doll Face
Were you honest when you said, I could never leave your bed. Wake me up and let me know you're alive. And will you fall in love again, is the scent slowly spreading? I've been answering machines all night, now the doctors dancing in. While the ambulances sing, another boy without a sharper knife. The moment that's where, I kill the conversation. Wrap this up with a knife that loves to feel, how do you know how deep to go before it's real? Take me home, can I even complicate your breathing? I guess I'm just your average boy, this is me with a knife in the back. And a grip on the glass, it's cold. And I don't wanna be here, I guess I'm never comfortable or situational. Are we losing or beginning, to try a new life without you? The moment that's where, I kill the conversation. Wrap this up with a lie that I'm enjoying, every minute with myself. And she could make hell feel just like home, so I'm never leaving her alone. But if your lightning lips aren't mine, then I don't know the awkward stranger to my right. But she's crying, I only need one hand to drive. When you're with me, you are my getaway. Oh, no. And don't you ever feel alone? And don't you wish you were home? Cut the lust tonight, alright, alright tell me why? My little Mona Lisa tola a lie, lie, lie, lie. Do you want me? Do you want to let me know that you're okay? A diamond gold ring, customized to cut your circulation. But I couldn't let you go, no I never let you go my dear. So keep talking cause I love to hear your voice. (Love to hear your voice, love to hear your) voice again.
I'd Rather Die Than Be Famous
Call the police, this whole place is gonna burn. Come on Holly put the gun down for me, call the police, this whole place is gonna burn. You love money and the sex in your veins, call the police, this whole place is gonna burn. They're trying to take it from us, they're trying to take it from us. Call the police, this whole place is gonna burn. You're so pretty when you dress for the grave, love me as you lay. Dizzy and falling your legs dangling. Although accidents happen, they happen to me. Try to forget the beginning and end. Forget the world without removing the glass from your lips. Call the police, this whole place is gonna burn. You love money and sex in your veins, call the police, this whole place is gonna burn. They're trying to take it from us, they're trying to take it from us. Call the police, this whole place is gonna burn. The sun's coming up and we're still awake. Am I the trigger of your gun, your pretty eyes don't give me much choice. But I'll take them home, I've done some thinking of my own. And when I come home, I want to be done. Don't want to be famous no more, leave that girl alone. My teenage heart attack keeps talking back, keeps talking back to her. And I can't pretend that off this balcony, we wouldn't want to jump off of it. And put an end to this. Call the police, this whole place is gonna burn. You love money and sex in your veins, call the police, this whole place is gonna burn. Doll up and sleep walk, until we have some teeth marks. Narcotic sweet talk, until we have some teeth marks. This whole place is gonna burn.
The Cheap Bouquet
Stay young, and at the top of your lungs. Our hands are free, our lives have just begun. It's getting dark we should go back, but what's the use if what you love is what you have. And I could die right now, for something beautiful to take me somewhere else. Oh, I try. But I can't calm down, as I drag myself along these severed hands. Are doing the very best they can, I'm gonna buy a cheap bouquet. Before it dies on the display, gonna break down. Break down the better side of me, the better side of me. Well I know, I know if I die young. Then we can wake up screaming in your bed, and our lungs are begging us to calm down. And I scare myself with all that talk of severing, doing the best or so it seems. You've been mistaken, your finger is on the scale. Burn like you never have before, stop, drop and roll don't work in hell. So what if I forget regret, so what if I. So what if I forget regret, I want you to know that I. That I've wrote this line a thousand times forget regret. This must be the way it ends, calm down. As I drag myself along these severed hands, are doing the very best they can. As I drive my car into the sea, I taste you like a hammer through my teeth. Will someone tell me what it means to be alive, it feels just like the feeling when you die. Oh, alright. I'm dead and I don't care, if it's cold outside anymore. So come on, let's have some fun.
Falling Asleep On A Stranger
Well you know that I'm cold, black on constellations gold. And you know that your soul's, black top under lacing won't let go. It was all for you, all for you and more. She won't chase him anymore, to the end never leave. Fall asleep on the first I face, and they say play the game. You and me found love, lost under the shade. Well you know I'm a ghost, pull the note out of my throat. And leave me alone, but it's all for you. All for you and more, he won't take her anymore. To the end, never leave. Fall asleep on the first I face, and they say play the game. You and me found love, lost under the shade. Come back to my heart tonight, I don't care, come back tonight.
She Sings In The Morning
Wake up, a voice hits the air on a lonely coast. And I'll sing along like a prayer for you, I can dream up the words. I'll never see your face again, if we wake at, if we wake at all. She sings to me, if we wake at, if we wake at all. We'll try to change, they say love will never mean a thing. Still our hearts beat, so come on. So stuck on the only thing that we know, what we know starts to waste. If we wake at, if we wake at all. She sings to me, can we be sure. If we wake at, if we wake at all. Oh my God.
The Balcony Scene
Don't react when I tell you, and don't react when I tell you. That bright lights mean nothing to you, cause no one would know the sound of a ghost. And I might be something to you, beyond beautiful is the sound of a ghost, can we lose our minds? And call it love for the last time? (yeah) My darling, never rest. Until the darker gets, the best of all we had. Can the cold carry on? When the light means nothing to you, then no one would know the sound of a ghost. And I might be perfect with you, but no one would know, so tell me, tell me. Have you ever really danced on the edge? Is something still scaring you? Have you ever really danced on the edge, the count of three is up. Have you ever really danced on the edge? Alright then tell me so, have you ever really danced on the edge? Just hold my hand and jump, and bright lights mean nothing to you. Cause no one would know (cause no one would know) The sound of a, the sound of a ghost. Oh, no one would know the sound of a ghost.
Drella
You're bust drawing heart, you run your fingers down the glass. An open mirror, now you're sleeping in the front seat. Like a crushed leaf, on the concrete night. Murder ring, what are you talking about. Murder ring, and how did you get into my house. I think you buried me too deep, you had your way. You almost seem alive, but I've been driving you around. I didn't think it could have lasted, now we broke another bracelet. Tore it off your wrist tonight, tonight the center of the sun. Will separate in sparks, they're climbing up the sky and down the dark. Do you think, you'd better love me back. You said you want someone who actually cares, but I'll say what I want. Because nobody's around when I talk, it feels better to fall asleep alone. Because that's the only way I know, but I've been driving you around. I didn't think it could have lasted, now we broke another bracelet. Tore it off your wrist tonight, and now that Cinderella's gone. She swallowed up the sun, a middle class explosion could be nice. If we're the dynamite, let us prey. Don't you miss me, or the night we snuck out your window oh. Because baby, baby, you're so crazy now. Looks like I'm not the only one now, and I can finally see the light. Oh, there's a million stars tonight, a single one could save my life. Red water leaves us, as we collide. Drella, Drella. Red water leaves us, and I drive.
Diamonds and Why Men Buy Them
Oh no, here we again. I look receive what the earth, and sea had thought it'd be best not to even give me. Even give me, now you say that I never bother you. The way he did (now open eyes) now I saw the moon divorce the sky. Is this what it's like, don't run. Spell out, spell out. Spell out to me babe, so every week we'll meet. A bed for the backseat, a love drunk memory. But such a beautiful routine, now you say that I never bother you. The way he did, (now open eyes) now I saw the moon divorce the sky tonight. This remedy is worse than the disease, and slowly killing me. We like to run our blood thin, and laugh at things we never did. We like to run our blood thin, and laugh at things. Resay, say hello. Resay, say hello (we like to run our blood thin) Resay, now you say. We're better off that way, now I saw the moon divorce the sky. Is this what it's like?
Wonderless
I don't care, if your beautiful lips. Exist out there, cause I'm wonderless. Why the best can't make it in Hlloywood, no more. It's like a long drag taken, before the smoke hits the white sky. Like the birds at night, and it's fake, just like the movies. Oh, yeah. And I can't wait, just to see you again. And your two faces are locked on mine, had the worst time chasing the thought away. No hope. (oh, no hope) Cause maybe I'm a fake, maybe you're to blame. Maybe I'm a star, (stumbling drunk light) my mistakes I've made won't leave me. Alone, oh no. And if you don't find me on the front page, find a way to say that you saw me. And if you don't find me in a movie, find a way to say that you knew me. And if you don't find me on the front page, find a way to say that you saw me. And if you don't find me at all, then I won't care. Oh, yeah. If I could find a place for the holiday, maybe I would call. You're a payphone away from the mess I've become. I'm destroying what I love.
Album 2-Selfish Machines
Besitos
You're my favourite explosion, a violin with no hands plays symphonies with no words. (with no words) A drowning boy with no voice prays, someone up there's telling me. You'd better not get back up! I spit my heart into this red cup, I'd better pick it back up, it might ruin your night (ruin your night) And she said, baby, leave the water by the bed for later. I woke up without a single drop, I told myself. I'm tired of holding up your backup plans, go down your list and be satisfied if all you have is not enough. (True love comes from more than just the heart) She said paint a picture on me, throw your dress up and your heart away. Yeah, I heard what you said (no!) A friend of a friend, these strangers at the party never paid. And if that doesn't turn you on, I'll keep talking till something does. As we're covered in sand, you roll over and smile. (smile, smile) I told myself, I'm tired of holding up your backup plans. Go down your list and be satisfied, it's all you have. And until that day (that day) I'll steal you flowers from the cemetery. Red roses! Red roses of the dead, how does it feel to breathe oxygen inside her head? So say it (say it, say) I'm in love, cause you called me crying. (crying, crying, cry) From your job, said you just got fired, and you don't have a back up plan. So don't expect me to understand. (A diamond bullet and a gun made of gold) (She was covered in blood last seen in San Francisco) Yeah! Alright! We all break down. Sometimes these bedroom walls become my only friends, but they were there from beginning to end. (there from beginning to end) I'm tired of holding up your backup plans, go down your list and be satisfied, it's all you have. You know I've never held a gun in my life, but now I carry one around in case I see you tonight. Bedroom walls, all these bedroom walls. Oh, I hate what it tastes like. (hey!) Woo!)
Southern Constellations
Please keep chasing me, your southern constellations got me so dizzy. It's cold, but you pretend that you are warm with me. (warm with me) Before I get you home, you're nearly frozen (you're frozen) But I'll never let you freeze without me. Oh no.
The Boy Who Could Fly
It's time to take you home, if feels so early, but I promised I would bring you to your door. Now our lips are numb as we walk, sharing warm alcohol. That kiss tastes like summer, I hope you like the stars I stole for you. One hundred million twinkle lights in neon blue, I'll be the brightest someday. I'll be the brightest someday, I'll be the brightest you'll see. Don't rain on my parade, it's gonna glow in the dark. I like it better when you can't keep warm. Don't ruin a perfect thing, a perfect thing. The boy on the blue moon dreams of sun. Now as the rain falls like shattered pieces of glass from the sky, we bleed like water colours. And drunken pastels down the stairways, and I ask myself: why do I still pray? When will it end? and who freaking cares? I swear to God, I did what I could. I practically begged you, I pretended everything was fine. A soul sacrifice, and American nightmare. I'd rather be dead, don't rain on my parade. It's gonna glow in the dark, I like it better when you can't keep warm. Don't ruin a perfect thing, a perfect thing. The boy on the blue moon, hears a nightmare in his head. I'll bet you money has you running to the bathroom, you barely started drinking but your beauty never stopped you. You died in California by sulfur and the sea. I guess I never should have loved you, but I do forever cause you loved me. And I break my glasses as I fall in the street, if you were gonna leave this world, how could it be without me? Now it's all over my tongue, and it still has no taste. Cause without you there is no me, there's no me at all. Sometimes love, love dies like dies like a, love dies like a dog. (So why don't we just this one take care of itself?) Don't rain on my parade, it's gonna glow in the dark. I like it better when you can't keep warm, don't ruin a perfect thing, a perfect thing. The boy on the blue moon dreams, don't rain on my parade, woah, no. I'm losing a perfect thing, a perfect thing, a perfect thing.
Caraphernelia
Sunshine. There ain't a thing that you can say that's gonna ruin my night, (but there's just something about) this dizzy dreamer and her bleeding little blue boy. Licking your fingers like you're done, and you've decided there is so much more than me. (oh-oh-oh) And maybe honestly it's harder breathing next to you, I shake. I brought a gun and as the preacher tried to stop me, hold my heart it's beating for you anyway. What if I can't forget you? (oh) I'll burn your name into my throat, I'll be the fire that'll catch you. What's so good about picking up the pieces? None of the colours ever light up anymore in this hole, nobody prays for the heartless. (no!) Nobody gives another penny for the selfish, (you're learning how to taste what you kill now) don't mind me I'm just reaching for your necklace. Talking to my mom about this little girl from Texas. What if I can't forget you, I'll burn your name into my throat I'll be the fire that'll catch you. What's so good about picking up the pieces? None of the colours ever light up anymore in this hole. Just give her back to me, you know I can't afford the medicine that feeds what I need. So baby, what if I can't forget you? (what if I can't forget you) Collide invisible lips, like a shadow on the wall. And just throw, oh no. You can't just throw me away. (oh) So what if I can't forget you? I'll burn your name into my throat, I'll be the fire that'll catch you. And what's so good about picking up the pieces? What if I don't even want to? Oh, oh oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh oh. What if I can't forget you? I'll burn your name into my throat, I'll be the fire that'll catch you. What's so good about picking up the pieces? None of the colours light up anymore in this hole. Just give her back to me, you know I can't afford the medicine that feeds what I need. So baby, what if I can't forget you? (what if I can't forget you?) I'd better learn to live alone. (What's so good about picking up the pieces?) (What's so good about, what's so good about) (What's so good about picking up the pieces?)
Fast Times at Clairemount High
I was saving, I was saving, I was saving. I was saving myself for you, I was saving myself for you. I waited my whole life for you, I was saving myself for you. Tonight we'll be throwing a party, under the sunset we started to drink. A little faster now, the celebration, so many faces. I say the words as the moon painted us blue. I've been saving myself for you, I've been saving myself for you. I waited my whole life for you, cause I was saving myself for you. Now brother bring that beat back, now hold on this is innocent blood. All the beach boys look like sharks, because without you nothing ever mattered. I scream and wave my arms, but you understand me. Now as I watch them feed you it's over, if I die, you die too. Because I'm saving myself for you, I've been saving myself for you. I waited my whole life for you, cause I was saving myself for you. I just wanted one dance with you, and one night under the smoke alarm. Every single door in this house is on fire, so melodramatic but it turns me on. I close my eyes it feels just like a movie, I'm convinced that we don't make sense. But, I'd kill anyone who gets close. I've been saving myself for you, I've been saving myself for you. The sharpest thing I find for you, cause I was saving myself for you. I've been saving myself for you, I saved myself for you. Don't you know I'd die for you, I saved myself for you. Without you, what's the point?
The New National Anthem
Drag my hand behind you like a chain behind a truck, sparks over your carpet while I chase you through the darkness. Somebody's supposed to fall in live, but nobody even calls. Somebody's supposed to tear this place apart, until you find me hiding silently I wait. You'll be excited just to see me someday, everything's okay. Summer and gold throw their colours at the dark. A mother tell her son: Darling look at the sparks. But you hold my attention without even trying, a beautiful reflection from firework eyes, but never means forever. Desperation and hanging in the backyard at night. Somebody's supposed to fall in love, tear this place apart. Until you find me hiding, silently I wait. You'll be excited just to see me someday, everything's okay. Love, don't forget to bleed (so slowly) haunted hearts, we melt over fabric of your floor. I'm holding her just like she's gold, but I've been running from the sun. Oh, no, no. And if I ever catch the ones who hurt you I, I'm hoping that God looks away this time (so) So, why would I let you go? (why would I let you go) Let you go, tear this place apart. Until you find me hiding, silently I wait. You'll be excited just to see me someday, everything's okay.
Bulletproof Love
I breathe you in with smoke, in the backyard lights. (backyard lights) We used to laugh until we choked, into the wasted nights. (wastes nights) It was the best time of my life, but now I sleep alone. (sleep alone) So darling don't, don't wake me up, cause my thrill is gone. (say I'm wrong) In the sunset turning red behind the smoke, forever and alone. Yeah! You've gone and sewn me to this bed, the taste of you and me. (you and me) Will leave me lips again, under the blinding rain. (blinding rain) I wanna hold your hand so tight, I'm gonna break my wrist. (break my wrist) And when the vultures sing tonight, I'm gonna join right in. I'll sing along, oh. Cause I don't know any other song. I'll sing along, but I'm barely hanging on. No, I'm barely hanging on. By the time you're hearing this I'll already be gone, and now there's nothing to do but scream at the drunken moon. This isn't fair! (No!) Don't you try to blame this on me, my love for you was bulletproof, but you're the one who shot me. And dammit, I can barely say your name, so I'll try to write it and fill the pen, with blood from the sink. Whoa oh, oh oh. But don't just say it, you should sing my name. Pretend that it's a song, cause forever it's yours. And we can sing this on the way home. I'll sing along (oh) cause I don't know any other song. (oh oh) I'll sing along, but I'm barely hanging on. No, I'm barely hanging on. By the time you're hearing this I'll already be gone, and now there's nothing to do. But tear my voice apart, nothing to do and scream at the drunken moon.
Stay Away From My Friends
Waking up your neighbors downstairs, I've been inside your bedroom a thousand years. And as you tie me to the bed for good I say, that I want you in the most unromantic ways. Louisiana, you're torturing me with a beautiful face. Ana, come on, I thought we had a damn good thing. A penny is the couch and a diamond ring, so baby stay away from my friends. Cause I need them to carry me when it's over, I'll count back from ten. And you can listen to glass hearts shattering. I don't know how you got into me, down my throat and made a home in my veins. They used to be the rivers that would take us away, now you only call me every Christmas and my birthday. I still can't believe how you look next to me, just like a strip club bedroom scene. Baby, stay away from my friends (my friends) Cause I need them to carry me when it's over. I'll count back from ten, and you can listen to something that you've never heard before. (Never heard before) (never heard before) But you don't know what it's like, to wake up in the middle of the night. Scaring the thought of kissing razors, this blood evacuation is telling me to cave in. Stay away, away. Just stay away, away. From my friends.
I Don't Care If You're Contagious
Bury me in the bedroom where I, I can sing you to sleep all night. Put me next to the open window, promise me a second time. Cause I don't wanna leave without you buried by my side, I'd rather kill the one responsible for falling stars at night. Cause they fall all around me, the night can be deadly. And they'll never take us alive, (can you chase away the darkness?) To live in love and die, last night she recited every reason she's fine. So if we're heading there together at the same time, you sing while I drive. Move like a fugitive tonight, (dance on the ambulance) because I would rather spend my vacations in bed. With you like drunken summer kites, and this is only a test. Sober and scaring me to death, they'll never take us alive. (can you chase away the darkness) To live in love and die, and I don't care if you're sick. I don't care if you're contagious, I would kiss you even if you were dead. Would somebody make me go blind for the rest of my life, cause I'd do anything to hold your hand. And I don't care if you're sick, I don't care if you're contagious. Oh, no. Would somebody make me go blind for the rest of my life, cause I'd do anything, anything. They'll never take us alive, cause I'll chase away the darkness. I'll live in love and die, I joined the party for the recently blind. So if we're heading there together, you can sing all night. I'm gonna tear out the thread one by one from your skin, till your bones feel embarrassed from all the attention.
Disasterology
I laid down, I drank the poison then I passed the **** out. Now let me tell you about the good life, I have a million different kinds of fun. When I'm asleep and in a dream that I'm your only one, can we create something beautiful and destroy it? Nobody knows I dream about it, this is my imagination. If you come over tonight, we can travel through time. We can sleep on the ceiling and creep under black lights, I have a million different girls that hide under my bed and when I let them out they treat me right. Oh what a waste of a perfectly good clean wrist, you were screaming till the police came. Can we create something beautiful and destroy it? Nobody knows I dream about it, this is my imagination. If every living thing dies alone, what am I doing here? If every living thing died alone, what am I doing here? If it's the end of the world, if it's the end of the world. You and me should spend the rest of it in love. Can we create something beautiful and destroy it? Nobody knows I dream about it, this is my imagination. If every living thing dies alone what am I doing here, if every living thing dies alone what am I doing here? What am I doing here, oh no.
Million Dollar Houses (The Painter)
So what if I was just a painter? Painting houses on the rich blue coast, would you ever try to leave me, for somebody who deserves you most? Cause darling, I am just a painter (ooh) I'm painting houses for the rich old folks, I'm gonna make a million dollars. (ooh) Cause nobody's gonna steal you, no. For diamonds and gold, for diamonds and gold. Cause I've broken bone for you, and for you only. I make money, but we just can't keep this home. Give me your heart and your hand we can run, we can run, we can run, baby run now. We can run, baby, run. She's like a bullet through an ocean, I still remember how you moved so slow (so slow) You tried to kill me with a shotgun, bang, now we're even. We don't stop till someone's bleeding, we don't stop till someone's bleeding. I've broken bones for you, and for you only. I make money, but we just can't keep this home. Give me your heart and your hand and we can run. We can run, we can run, baby run now. We can run, baby, run, baby, you're my hope. Permanently yours (oh) sometimes the moon looks brighter than the sun. As times like this run up my wrists, she hates all of the guts and blood. Splash around with me, while we move like flames on burning sheets. And your doctor won't stop calling me her medication, but baby no, sometimes things don't work out the way we've planned. To live is just to fall asleep, to die is to awaken. ooh, oh. Maybe we're meant to lose the ones we love, but I'll fight for you till then. And if he stole you from me, on my arm there's a tattoo of your name. I've broken bones for you, and for you only. I make money, but forget money, we want love. Give me your heart and your hand and we can run. We can run, we can run, we can run. We can run, we can run, we can run.
The Sky Under The Sea
I still remember the night, you tried to kiss me through the window. I tried to settle for the taste of touching glass over the sound of answering machines, because I love the way your voice, it says it's gonna get back to me someday. As I brace my knees you hold me down with your eyes, and someday I'll drive, close both my eyes. We'll swim in circles in the blue light, it's gonna be the best day of my life. And, oh my God, you'll never be as beautiful without me. Beauty needs an animal to breathe, baby, you'll be all right as long as I'm not. So do that dance in the dark, sharpen your teeth and bite as hard as you want. And someday I'll drive, close both my eyes. We'll swim in circles in the blue light, and I just want to fade away into the sky under the sea. A million kisses underwater as we walk into the ocean, (ocean) oh no. And this is gonna be the best day of my life, (of my life) a celebration of an ending. Come on! And do you really trust your tongue or did you bury the taste, and is this fantasy real or is all homemade? And did you call me last night just cause you couldn't get laid? Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce the selfish machine. That's freaking right! Do you think you're the only one? (afraid) Do you think you're the only one? (afraid) Do you think you're the only one afraid of this machine? Oh! And someday I'll drive, close both my eyes. I'll be your breath if you can be mine, and I just wanna fade away into the sky under the sea. A million kisses underwater, we walk into the ocean waves. Oh no, oh no. One, two, three, and do you see me at all under the tall waves? And do you see me at all?
Album 3-Collide With The Sky
May These Noises Startle You In Your Sleep Tonight
If you wanted to set me free, why the heck wouldn't you say something? I was just over seventeen, may the poison cave in free. Oh no, please don't abandon me. Mother, father, I love you so. But this is just me, disguised as me. I'm the killer who burned this home. (This home!) (I burned this home!)
Hell Above
Cannot spend another night in this home, I close my eyes and take a breath real slow. The consequence is if I leave I'm alone, but what's the difference when you beg for love? Cause I run through glass in the street, Kerosene hearts carry the name that my father gave me, and take the face of the wolf. Cause this is a wasteland, my only retreat. With heaven above you, there's hell over me. I met a girl who never looked so alone, like sugar water in your mouth lukewarm, she tied a cherry stem for me with her tongue. We fell in love in love and no we're both alone, cause I don't need anymore friends. And another kiss like a fire on pavement, we'll burn it down to the end. oh oh. This is a wasteland, my only retreat. With heaven above you, there's hell over me. The water is rusted, the air is unclean. And there for a second I feel free, cause this is a wasteland, my only retreat. I've waited all this night to honor you and say, I know it's hard, but who are you to fall apart on me, on me? This is a wasteland, my only retreat. With heaven above you, there's hell over me. Cause this is a wasteland, my only retreat. With heaven above you, there's hell over me. You said what about us, well what about me? Hang from the gallows, asleep in the rain. This is a wasteland, my only retreat. Paralyze me, don't let me jump, don't let me fall.
A Match Into Water
Let's go! I kissed the scars on her skin, I still think you're beautiful. And I don't ever wanna lose my best friend, I screamed out God you vulture! Bring her back or take me with her. Tear it down, break the barricades. I want to see what sound it makes, I hate this flavor with a passion, and I freaking hate the aftertaste. How does it feel? (How does it feel?) Well, it feels like I'm on fire. Wake up I know you can hear me, make me a promise here tonight, love like a tidal wave. Dreamless and early graves, I never want it to be this way. The chemicals will bring you home again, this is it, when it's done we can say that. When it's sudden death we fight back, (oh yeah this was just as I suspected) pretend like it don't entice you. I've seen you circling the sky above my head, you traitor! I will never be taken for granted again, (keep digging holes in the desert) say a prayer for you. I know that you're pain, but if we die at the same time does it still scare you? Make me a promise here tonight (let's go) dreamless and early graves, never want it to be this way. The chemicals will bring you home again, this is it, when it's done we can say that. Oh my God we're not gonna make it. We will bring the tidal wave, we will bring the tidal wave, we will bring the tidal wave, we will bring the tidal wave, we will bring the tidal wave, we will bring the tidal wave. And nothing will remain! She's mine, you stay away from her it's not her time. Cause baby, I'm the one who haunts your dreams at night. Until she's satisfied, make me a promise here tonight. Love like a tidal wave, dreamless and early graves. I never want it to be this way, the chemicals will bring you home again. This is it, when it's done, we can say that. When it's sudden death we fight back, go! Forget it.
King For A Day
Dare me to jump up this Jersey bridge, I'll bet you've never had a Friday night like this. Keep it up, keep it up, let's raise our hands. I take a look up at the sky and I see red, red for the cancer, red for the wealthy. Red for the drink that's mixed with suicide, everything red. Please won't you push me for the last time, let's scream until there's nothing left. So sick of lying, I don't want this anymore. The thought of you is no freaking fun, you want a martyr? I'll be one. Because enough's enough we're done. You told me think about it well I did, now I don't wanna feel a thing anymore. I'm tired of begging for the things that I want, I'm over sleeping like a dog on the floor. The thing I think I love will surely bring me pain, intoxication, paranoia, and a lot of fame. Three cheers for throwing up, pubescent drama queen. You make me sick, I make it worse by drinking late. (scream, scream) Scream until there's nothing left, so sick of playing I don't want to anymore. The thought of you is no freaking fun, you want a martyr? I'll be one. Because enough's enough we're done. You told me think about it well I did, now I don't wanna feel a thing anymore. I'm tired of begging for the things that I want, I'm over sleeping like a dog on the floor. Imagine living like a king someday, a single night without a ghost in the walls. And if the bass shakes the earth underground, we'll start a new revolution now. Now. (alright, here we go) Hail Mary, forgive me. Blood for blood, hearts beating. Come at me, now this is war. (mess with this new beat) Now terror begins inside a bloodless vein, I was just a product of the street youth rage. Born in this world without a voice or say, caught in the spokes with an abandoned brain. I know you well, but this ain't a game. Blow the smoke in diamond shape, dying is a gift, so close your eyes and rest in peace. You told me think about it well I did, now I don't wanna feel a thing anymore. I'm tired of begging for the things that I want, I'm over sleeping like a dog on the floor. Imagine living like a king someday, a single night without a ghost in the walls. We are the shadows screaming takes us down, we'd rather die than live to rest on the ground. (dang)
Bulls In The Bronx
Do you know, I count your heartbeats before you sleep. I bite my fingernails to bone, and then I crawl back under the stairwell to a place I call my home. I really hope you enjoy the show, because for me it's just a bad day. You need people like me to fail, maybe we're just having too much fun. Maybe you can't handle yourself, staring at me with your lips and tongue. You'll never know, I don't know where I'm going to sleep tonight. She said: Hotels are cheap and there's one down the street but. Oh, don't you threaten me with a good time, murder the moment, my God I'm the serpent. I'm sorry I can't see that you truly love me, maybe we're just having too much fun. Maybe you can't handle yourself, staring at me with your lips and tongue. I've been having this dream that we can fly, so maybe if we never wake up we can see the sky. Oh, alright. Please don't take this out on me, cause you're the only thing that's keeping me alive. And I don't wanna wait for the down set date, cause I would rather end it all tonight. If I mean anything to you, I'm sorry but I made up my mind. Maybe we're just having too much fun, maybe you can't handle yourself. Staring at me with your lips and tongue, I've been having this dream that we can fly. So darling close your eyes, cause you're about to miss everything. (about to miss everything) About to miss everything. (about to miss everything)
Props & Mayhem
Self medicate. While they sleep, we let the night chase. Evil things away, and we're like animals homesick from shows. We've got to kill everything, before the night gets wasted. Maybe it's seem so strange, but we don't even stress at all. Cause we've got poisons in out wall, (poisons in our wall) come at me with everything you've got. Burst into flames, scream in the dark. I'm gonna light up this place, and die in beautiful stars tonight. Does it even make a difference? When I'm sober, I feel pain. Cause we run under the stars through cemetery backyards, celebrate the way the night hides scars. So dance! If it moves you, jump in the fire. If it burns you, I'll throw my arms around you darling. And we'll turn to ashes drowning in the flame, scream in the dark. I'm gonna light up this place, and die in beautiful stars! What if these demons keep falling from the sky, sometimes I love the way you swing the flame and everything inside. Separate me from my own two hands, I've killed so many times. But I can't save the world from the creatures that don't die, I kinda like the way you tell me, baby please come home. I need you here right now, I'm crying in the water so you don't hear the sound. Burst into flames, scream in the dark. I'm gonna light up this place, oh oh oh yeah. And I will be the only light, I'll be the only light.
Tangled In The Great Escape
Don't you say you had a part of it, I guess we'll never know. Oh would you say that had a part of it, well I guess we'll never know. Constant recovery, I see you choke and it takes my breath away. When all is good, we close our eyes. They all accept the lie, so bury what you want outside. Brother, promise you won't leave me. I know you're tortured within, your eyes look hungry again. But I'll never wander, my friend. Well, somebody believed in this suicide. Am I the only one that thinks that you should stay alive, oh became the train as you backed up on the ropes. To arm yourself and lie, so asking mayday. I'm in trouble, send somebody on the double. Scratching at the floor inside my mind, they all accept the lie. So bury what you want outside, brother please don't be afraid oh. I know you're tortured within, your eyes look hungry again. But I'll never wander, my friend. I let you down, and started to run. Never meant to be your pain, what have I become. Show me, show me the way back. I know you're tortured within, your eyes look hungry again. But I'll never wander, my friend. No, I'll never wander again. Not what I want, not what I know. Can I just have one more day, just to make it through the day. You're tangled, you're tangled in the great escape. Great escape, oh. I never meant to hurt nobody, no no yeah. I never meant to hurt you, no no no. I only meant to do this to myself, to myself, to myself. Great escape, great escape, great escape. Oh, great escape. I was lost yeah, baby I was lost yeah.
I'm Low On Gas And You Need A Jacket
Choke, try to wash you down with something strong. Try but the taste of blood remains, cold, empty mattresses and falling stars. My, how they start to look the same. So keep in happiness, and torture me while I tell you. Let's go in style, a million hooks around. A million ways to die, darling it's cold outside. No, no more eyes to see the sun. You slide into bed while I get drunk, slow conversations with a gun. Meaning more than I've ever said to anyone. Anyone, so keep in happiness. And torture me while I tell you, let's go in style. A million hooks around, a million ways to die. Darling let's go inside, it'll be alright. But last night, you said you ended up in Palm Springs dancing on tables. Almost fought some **** at the club, got kicked out of your hotel, and lost your shoes. Well, **** what am I supposed to be impressed? You're just another set of bones to lay to rest, I guess it's time to say goodnight, I hope you had a really good time. Good time, I'll soon forget the colour of your eyes, and you'll forget mine. So keep in happiness, and torture me while I tell you. Let's go in style, a million hooks around a million ways to die. Let's go outside, it'll be alright. But last night you said you ended up in Palm Springs dancing on tables.
The First Punch
Where you from fool? This world is about to change, in one, two, one, tow, three, four. Look into my eyes and look out the words you say, blood on your tongue with a crass embrace. I found a kiss on the day we met and said, this will ne a night we won't forget. Speak slow now, I don't wanna miss when you cry. Glass over diamond blue eyes, and it's good enough to make me wanna fall in love. So move a little bit closer, hear the sound of your voice. We're screaming, why can't we just be friends? It's not that easy but it's half of the fun, to see you throw the first punch (now) it's such a shame you had to go and run your mouth. Life is what you make it but at least I've got real friends, can you hear me now? Now that I'm a big star, forget you and your new love for yourself. (it don't meant anything) And it's good enough to make me wanna fall in love, so move a little bit closer, hear the sound of your voice. We're screaming, why can't we just be friends? It's not that easy but it's half of the fun, to see you throw the first punch now. I've got so much to give, but I would kill just to feel less invisible. And you've got so much to learn about gravity, so live it up, baby don't look down. Live it up baby don't look down. and it's good enough to make me wanna fall in love. So move a little bit closer, hear the sound of your voice. We're screaming, why can't we just be friends? It's not that easy but it's half of the fun, I saw it coming when you threw the first punch. You threw the first punch, now it's your turn to run. This is the breath that will take my life, there's no future but matches and propane. And through the mutated words I write, kill it fast and never watch it die.
One Hundred Sleepless Nights
I can't wait to see your brilliant face, light up the room around the pillowcase. She said can you come over to my LA place, I got something to tell you and I just can't wait. (oh) When I showed up, you held the door in tears. Sat on the couch under the chandelier, you said you're having a baby, and before I cry. You're leaving me just when I thought you were mine, but I don't see your face. Taken by the one hearted race, oh now don't tell your other man. I got a hell of a plan. Failing lights amass one hundred sleepless nights, and I might be holding onto too tight. But there's a beast in my heart, and he won't let you leave alive. Nightmares no longer wait for sleep (no) crawl on the ground on both your hands and knees, just like a lion and you're the queen of the pride. And we will feast together till the bones are gone, but I don't see your face. (oh no) taken by the one hearted race, oh now don't tell your other man. (He's not a part of the plan) Failing lights amass one hundred sleepless nights, and I might be holding on too tight. But there's a beast in my heart, and he won't let you leave alive. Do you still love me? I am dying to know, or did you forget what we shared? (oh) Out of sight, out of mind, I was never even there. Failing lights amass one hundred sleepless nights, and I might be holding on too tight. But there's a beast in my heart and he won't let you leave alive. This is the price you'll pay, thoughts in your head that will never die. So don't you forget what we had, it's like I was never even there. Go!
Stained Glass Eyes And Colourful Tears
I changed your mind and ended up here, through stained glass eyes and colourful tears. Fine, maybe I'll pretend right now. But I swear to God, I'm gonna change the world. And I promise you someday, we'll tell ourselves: Oh my God this is paradise. I cherish my American girl, she holds them down while I destroy the world. My desperate cries, she don't seem to care, oh, yea. She bites her tongue and we can tell each other, baby this is paradise, and it's so damn good. Now we live like we should, fine maybe I'll pretend right now. But I swear to God I'm gonna change the world, and I promise you someday we'll tell ourselves. Oh my God this is paradise. Fine maybe I'll pretend right now, but I swear to God, I'm gonna change the world. And I promise you, someday we'll tell ourselves oh my God this is paradise.
Hold On Till May
She sits up high, surrounded by the sun. One million branches, and she loves everyone. Mom and Dad did you search for me? I've been up here so long, I'm going crazy. And as the sun went down, we ended up on the ground. I heard the train shake the windows, you screamed over the sound. And as we own this night, I put your body to the test with mine. This love was out of control, three, two, one where did it go? Now don't be crazy, yes now of course you can stay here. Been in a touring band for going on ten years, big deal she said. I guess you're official, I only said it cause I know what it's like to feel burned out. It gets you down, we've all been there sometimes. But tonight, I'll make you feel beautiful once again. And as the sun went down, we ended up on the ground. I heard the train shake the windows, you screamed over the sound. And as we own this night, I'll put your body to the test with mine. This love was out of control, three, two, one, where did it go? If I were you, I'd put that away. See, you're just wasted and thinking about the past again. Darling you'll be okay. And she said, if you were me, you'd do the same. Cause I can't take anymore, I'll draw the shades and close the door. Everything's not alright, and I would rather. And as the sun went down, we ended up on the ground. I heard the train shake the windows, you screamed over the sound. And as we own this night, I put your body to the test with mine. This love was out of control tell me where did it go?
Album 4-Misadventures
Dive In
Dive in, take a breath. Blow the smoke from through the hole in my chest, still choking on the bed. Found your waste while the ember red, keeps falling down and burning holes. Until the pillow and the mattress glow, now I wanna be the tattoo ink. That swims through the needle in your skin, and I wish I was poisonous. Like a bottomless sound, like a violent drug. Do you remember the knife I kept? The sharper it got, the more you wanted me to use it. I was lying to you, but you were lying too. So what's left to do, what's left to say? Stop making friends, just us. I'll decompose with you. So light the fuse inside your brain and we will detonate, you threw your drink at the wall. It started raining wine and glass so, stay and warm me with the Gentleman Jack. Gold locks on the cage, turn your diamond keys. Open the door, you'll see me digging out my getaway. (away, away) Hang the stars, who pulled the pin out of my heart? And just because you're screaming for my attention, does not mean I will waste my time. So hold your breath, and swim under the ice. And modern anxiety, that mother******never rests. Our adrenaline is kicking in so play the beat faster, head for the streets. We're the puke and decay, we're only dreaming what's your problem baby? Don't mean to break your heart, I'm the new fragrance in fermented jars. In area code, so just because you're screaming for my attention. Does not mean I will waste my time, so hold your breath and swim under the ice. They're everywhere, nothing can stop them. Nothing! Kill me if I end up like you, and just because you're screaming for my attention. Does not mean I will waste my time, so hold your breath and swim under the ice. I know that it's not safe here, you did this to yourself but have no fear. Just hold your breath and swim under.
Texas Is Forever
(Here we are) Can you tell that story, it's my favourite one. You freaking disappointment, I can't entertain you anymore. These stupid states of mind, everyone punishing me all the time. (Why?) But don't cross your boundaries and think that it's cool, misguided by darkness and lost on the road. But I'm such a sucker for the rain, here we are crashing once again. Into the center of your moonlit face, our caved in ribs. Your tears, they fall on my tongue and out lips are letting go. As we laid on the side of the road. (Go) Pull the trigger tight and watch our distances explode, (explode) if Texas is forever, where's your home sweet home? If anything should happen to me, I'll want you to know. I've loved you since ever since then, don't dance around me, I know what it means. No communication, cannot be received. But I'm such a sucker for the rain, yeah. (oh) (Here we are) Crashing once again into the center of your moonlit face, our caved in ribs. Your tears, they fall on my tongue and our lips are letting go. As we laid on the side of the road, (don't chase your nightmares) Yeah) Here we are, crashing once again. Into the center of your moonlit face, our caved in ribs. Your tears they fall, our lips are locked in Lemon Groves. And I can never let them, never let them grow. (The side of the road) So take a deep breath, and chase it with mine, your southern hospitality won't mind.
Floral & Fading
Rage in us, your thirst I'm taking. Pull the plug, I'll keep on shaking. And thrusting about your apartment, drowned on the blankets floral and fading. Painful lust, two aching guts, they tear through each other in the mirror. This happy vacation, with no motivation to hold me up. You say you wanna chase the moon like fire, well together we can fake our own deaths here. Just wanna be alone and watch as you all just disappear. Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh-oh, D-d-d-darker now. Kicked out and sleeping in your car, you roll the window down. Enough to dream and make believe, our lights knocked out, turned upside down. I'm just a stupid mother****** can't figure it out. I want devil horns, I wanna breathe in your rush. I wanna leap when you want me to fly, but darling I don't mean to beg. But these horns on the stem, are nearly tearing up my skin. And now you wanna chase the moon like fire, well together we can fake our own deaths here. Just wanna be alone and watch as you all just disappear. Tony. Close your eyes, picture you and I. Selling daylight, for gasoline. So now we're gonna chase the moon like fire, well together we can fake our own deaths here. Just wanna be alone and watch as you all just disappear, whoa-oh. Just wanna be alone and watch, why can't we be alone and watch?
Phantom Power and Ludicrous Speed
I'm mastering the art of miracles and flawless tragedies, in here I spend every day in captivity. Devoured while the walls grow hands and teeth, I cried and listened to the rain in a rental car. One day somebody's gonna go and get pushed too far, but now I don't know what to say. Shall I deny my lungs, their breathing rights? So give it up, give it up. Don't let your mind slip away, don't drink, don't get so high. Your beat's too obvious, not gonna say what you want me to say. I guess you're right, the less you're seen, the less you are. But I don't even care anymore, anatomy of a ghost, invisible friend. I won't pay for sanity, cause I don't want to know. Some things are better left alone, but thanks for your concern and calls. I'd put a bullet in my head and if I ever lost you now. Never even owned a bed, just a blood red couch. You think you're getting the best of me, disarm the smoke alarm. Forget you, no one is gonna ruin all out fun. All that we want is this temporary release and distraction, anatomy of a ghost, invisible friend. I won't pay for sanity, cause I don't want to know. Some things are better left alone, it seems (are you there?) I'm not everything you wanted me to be, so I suggest you pray for a. A full recovery, a full recovery. Your words were written in, your words were written in cold blood. Even with phantom power and ludicrous speed, I can't run because betrayal won't come from my enemies. Anatomy of a ghost, invisible friend. I won't pay for sanity, so baby here's a toast. To things much better left alone, it seems. I'm not everything you wanted me to be, in a dream on the way to the hospital, I'll slip away what's happening to me? And as you drag the lake and pull me out, do you feel the shame inside you? And as my body lays before you now, do you feel my skin is cold?
Circles
Listen, do you hear my heart beat thump. Over the monitors, you pretend to close your eyes. Don't breathe in, pieces of candy and leaks of light (leaks of light) paint the floor round me. Then without hesitating (hesitating) You took my hand and then we both started running, both start running there's no place to go. Another bullet and we both started running, both started running too. Save yourself, don't ever look back. Nowhere to go, and so we both spin around in circles. Creeping through these labyrinths I find. another dead end to the weekend, but is this real life? Paper hearts turned ash begin to fly, over out heads I begin. Screaming while the exit signs read heaven's waiting. You took my hand and then we both started running, both started running there's no place to go. Another bullet and we both started running, both started running too. Save yourself, don't ever look back. Nowhere to go, and we both spin around in circles. And I said hey, what's on your mind? I think about my life without you, and I start to cry. And I said hey, it's alright. We'll make it and I'll never leave your side. You took my hand and then we both started running, both started running there's no place to go. Another bullet and we both started running, both started running too. Save yourself, don't ever look back. Nowhere to go, and so we both spin around in circles, circles. Ohhh let's go!
Today I Saw The Whole World
Baby, pour over, tell me are we concrete? What would you do without my perfect company to your undressed spine? But I can hear you drag behind my car by your broken legs, swallowing stitches in her sleep. As she stole my only view, may I never blink. While you stood over the pavement, I was biting the curb. Sick entertainment, but I'll bet it feels good coming down. Can't bear to wash out the wasted time, between your lips and mine. Zero friends, followed your voices into a sea of crosses. She blends in with the foxes gold and feels like home, under the surface, my love. But beware, beware, beware. And take it slow tonight, we're on the other side of the road. I think we're bleeding out, while you stood over the pavement, I was biting the curb. Sick entertainment, but I'll bet it feels good coming down. Can't bear to wash out the wasted time, between our lips. So come on and swing it back and forth just like, my heart is on the pendulum tonight. If your lungs are mine, I only watch your clouds linger in the darkness. Oh, can't you feel it? You're feeding on my restless soul, oh, can't you see that. It's never enough, it's never enough. Oh, can you feel it? You feed on my restless soul, oh can you see that. It's never enough, it's never enough. Today I saw the whole world, think heaven has a plot to take my life. Listen, I'm the one who made you. I'll be the one who brings you down, but this will be the last time, bite on the curb. Ah, your sick entertainment, but I'll be it feels good when you're coming down. Can't bear to wash out the wasted time, between our lips. So come on swing it back and forth just like, my heart is on a pendulum tonight. If your lungs are mine, I only wanna watch your clouds linger in the darkness. Sing it one more time.
Gold Medal Ribbon
Are you up there? Just give me a signal I'm reaching you now, cause I remember the sound of your voice. But I don't remember what we talked about, it doesn't matter that's a waste of time. So take off your rings and lipstick for me, I swear that I can hear you in the wind. You're singing to me and you're, dancing in the halls outside again. I'm always listening, sending me off into space on this rocket invention. We'll look at the lights over the atmosphere, eat gold medal ribbon till we die. Up here it's self sabotage, suffocation, and stale taste of blood. I swear that I can hear you in the wind, you're singing to me and you're. Dancing in the halls outside again, and I'm always listening. I'll teach you to love, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh. I'll teach you to love, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh. Again. I swear that I can hear you in the wind, you're singing to me and you're. Dancing in the halls outside again, I'm always listening, I'm always listening. (I swear, I swear, I swear, oh)
Bedless
Surf to me, and whenever you're breezing through. Keep tearing my world apart, as we lost the light. Wet cash on the bar, she fell victim to a violent wave. And died on the jagged rocks, but don't believe. It's a never ending summer, cause they don't exist. Tied around your tongue in all the rage and spit, so why am I the one falling apart? Cause you don't even know, you're an angel. Foolish am I for the times I come and go, these stars defy love, so I close my eyes. And sleep inside your worn in bed outline, splash over your body while you drown on me. You ain't seen nothing yet, enter the galaxy of our sober demise. To the young and without type, (oh) in the morning hear all the birds sing. It never stops then with tears in your eyes, you smiled dressed in coppertone tan lines. Oh-oh, I hope you don't regret me. Don't believe, it' s a never ending summer cause they don't exist. Tied around your tongue, in all the rage and spit. So why am I the one falling apart? Cause you don't even know, you're an angel. Foolish am I for the times I come and go, these stars defy love, so I close my eyes. And sleep inside your worn in bed, and it won't be long till we drop this match. (oh) When I burn to your fingertips, you can throw what's left. So long, let's go and play those games you like. Let's go and play those games you like. (oh) But I don't believe, cause yesterday I found her with her clothes still wet. Crying in the shower on her knees, she screamed. Why the heck am I falling apart? Cause you don't even know, you're an angel. Foolish am I for the times I come and go, these stars defy love, so close my eyes. I'll sleep inside your worn in bed, and it woke me up like a heart attack. When you talk in your sleep, I'll be there to slow your breath.

Let's go! Cry in silver rings and pose, in a second you'll be high and in the clouds alone. I never thought I'd see the day, but I see stars around your face. Just like we're in the movies and you're scared, this was never my intention after all. So tell me, what the heck did I do? Damn, not even from my lifeless cold dead hands. We're made to destroy, tell me what you want until it hurts. I'll hang myself in lights and I will glow for you, the colours oh my God, it says you. Spinning on this circus ride, you're further than you've ever been. Stuck in zero gravity we laugh, I think we're in over our heads. I can't deny it's getting worse, trust me it's blessing and a curse. Call me if you're crashing, we'll take turns. Hello, welcome to Southern California. Go back home. Stand back, I can't believe. Do the math, the sky will fall anyway. Trust me this is a blessing and a curse, this much I can't deny. I can't deny it's getting worse, trust me it's a blessing and a curse.
Song For Isabelle
She paints in grey, and she closes her eyes. Till fireworks and palm trees almost look alike, she looks up to and whispers. I won't be here in a year, so I take the long road to think and wonder why. I can't sleep with all this sunlight, if there's still evidence of us. Why can't that be enough? I don't mean to drag you down, you taste just like you always do. Isabelle hides, so I can't find my way. I'd give anything just to surround your dreams, the envy of the dead. The sound of scissors and sleep, I can't believed you dreamed. And pulled all of your clothes off, you're not supposed to drink. With what's inside your purse, and not expect me to not to call (call you out) I'm guiding your chin to my lips, using only my fingertips. All we have are parking lots and nowhere to go. If you love me, then show me more. Isabelle watches me from far away, I'd give anything just to surround your dreams. I know you like when the temperature rises to a boiling heat, the chlorine and wine found. He sees through her nightgown, and everything fades away. The stars awake, but we can't see them out. So why pretend? Is there a train that travels back to yours at 5 am, or are we walking? Car alarms and leaves that blow, they're calling out our names. But it's gone too far, your butane mouth will spit me into flames. Sorry about it, I can't help it. I'm an anarchist in love, and I forgot to call you. I can't break you down, while I think about honey. And the sweet New York sounds, Isabelle hides so I can't find my way. I'd give anything to carry one and on the same way, the temperature rises to this boiling heat. The chlorine and wine found, he sees through her nightgown. As Saturday burns away, back in the days when I was young. I'm a not a kid anymore, but some days I sit and wish I was a kid again. Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore. But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again.
Album 5-Jaws of Life
Death Of An Executioner
Headlights on your back tonight. Kill the weight now, we're fast and light. Please don't cool my war machine, performance high and deafening. Blood dries on the sparkling lead paint, kill the competition. I bleed your fuel I'm siphoning, the soul left out. I hold my breath and drive, staring at the sky. Luminous and bright, running out of time. Blood red moonlight, gaining till you're over me. Beautiful as everything is crumbling, the flames dance off your eyes. Cigarettes on a dark bent highway, follow you from a distance like. Demons in a death machine, I feel your stomach tightening. Power lines from above see nothing, so tell the world what I want I'm gonna get. I pray for bones to break and mirrors to shatter. I hold my breath and drive. Staring at the sky, luminous and bright. Running out of time, blood red moonlight. Gaining till you're over me, beautiful as everything is crumbling. The flames dance off your eyes. (blood red moon) (blood red moonlight) (blood red moon) Blood red moonlight, gaining till you're over me. Beautiful as everything is crumbling, the flames dance off your eyes. Blood red moonlight, gaining till you're over me. Beautiful as everything is crumbling, the flames dance off your eyes. Oh, blood red moonlight.
Pass The Nirvana
(Yeah) Sink until you're unimpaired, slow motion like a rolling eye. We can hear you loud and clear, suicide season is upon and high. Why you always saying, let the good times roll. Kick your mind open like a punk rock show, uppercut bleeding to the soffit nose. If you didn't come home injured, would you say it was a good show? Cause every single freaking day, I try to roll my eyes and breathe. One hit, now I'm off this stuff. Give up, give up, give up. I can't hear you, through the tension, through the tension. Through the tension, right now. (this is only a distraction) Swing, batter up, let's play. Power until the target bleeds, this gun, (this gun) will never turn on me. So Paul Meany, will you drop that beat? Why you always saying, let that stuff go? Pennywise fashion on the sad skid row, a gentrified neighborhood of blood soaked homes. Draw the lines a little further, now they're coming back to get you. Cause every single freaking day, I try to roll my eyes and breathe. One hit, now I'm off this stuff. Give up, give up, give up. I can't hear you, through the tension. Through the tension, through the tension. Through the tension right now. Yo, I can't shine to save my life, but I'll feel through the dark without you. I set fires ablaze inside, and stepped into the light to blind you. Give up, give up, give up. I can't hear you, through the tension. Through the tension, through the tension. Through the tension right now. I can't hear you, I can't hear you, I can't hear you.
Even When I'm Not With You
I could run all night, I would never tire or slow. I could hold you tight, tighter than that sold out show. I believe in the slow ride, so I drag your heart through the sand and snow. I couldn't live by the old school rule. I binge watch every episode, I oh, I've been wrong. Heart under the gun, look how far we've come. Think I've finally won, red lipped Snow White, (red lipped Snow White) sipping beer through a straw real slow, I had a perfect high. (high) Lip locked in a bathroom stall, I, I believe in the slow ride. So I drag your heart through the sand and snow, I inhale the future slow. I exhale the past, let go, I oh, I've been wrong. Heart under the gun, look how far we've come. Think I've finally won (won, won, won) even when I'm not with you, I'm still with you. Even when I can't see you, I still feel you. Even when I can't touch you, I pretend to. Even when I'm not with you, I'm still with you. Even when I think I hate you, I still love you. Even when I can't kiss you, I still wait to. Even when I'm not with you, I'm still with you. Even when I'm not with you, I'm still with you. (with you) (still with you) Oh, I've been wrong, heart under the gun. Look how far we've come, think I've finally won. Oh, I've been wrong, heart under the gun. Look how far we've come, think I've finally won. It's good to know that I'm the only one, who can cut you further. What is love besides, two souls trying to heal each other.
Emergency Contact
There's no greater vengeance, than learning to enjoy again. Hope you get the message, nobody's shatter resistant. Therapy is tiring, but so is hiding how you feel. You can bring the villain in, and I can bring the sex appeal. Leave me, something. Or let me out, I'm starving. Push me, pull me. Waiting for the start of things that I want, this happily ever after. You choke on your words, but you swallow them faster. I sleep on the couch, while you're passed out in the back. Just want you to be my emergency contact, balanced on a razor blade. Lick you like a battery, your speakers can't handle the bass. But you look so good under the LEDs. Leave me something, or let me out, I'm starving. Push me, pull me. Waiting for the start of, things that I want. This happily ever after, you choke on your words. But you swallow them faster, I sleep on the couch, while you're passed out in the back. Just want you to be my emergency contact. You're my angel, you're a freaking angel. All mine, mine, mine, mine, mine. Leave me, something. Oh my God, I'm starving. Push me, pull me. Waiting for the start of things that I want, this happily ever after. You choke on your words, but you swallow them faster. I sleep on the couch, while you're passed out in the back. Just want you to be my emergency contact.
Flawless Execution
Blink and I'll explode, I'm just the type. Perverted, lonely that's defined. I'm not obsessed, far worse, I'm fine. Pain is unavoidable at times, but if it gets stuff off your mind. I understand, that's kind of why. I'm here, right? Yeah. Please don't worry, I can be your freak. I'll scar you with my flawless execution every time, shame (shame) I'm just a tiny parasite. But I won't eat you up alive, all of your tenderness the flies swarm around. Do you really crave a life? (That's not beholden to me) I didn't mean to burden you with love in my condition, please don't worry. I can be a freak, I'll scar you with my flawless execution every time. Horrified, swallowing your perfume, why? Won't you save me, you and I are blood and wine. Please don't worry, I can be a freak, I'll scar you with my flawless execution every time. Every time, every time, dead right.
The Jaws Of Life
Maybe I should go and buy a gun, point it at the mirror make me run. Now part of me has holes in it, and part of me is whole. We've only begun, we're screaming in the belly of your car. This energy is flying me to mars, part of me is alien and part of me is ghost. Falling through holes, I can't decide. Maybe it's enough to get by for now but, I'm having the time of my life. Rotting in the sun, we're inside the jaws of life. Seasonal depression tortures you, so heavy I don't mind it. Cause I like the flavor blue, dissolving apart. Part of me is younger now, and part of me is old. Trying to hold on, I can't decide. Maybe it's enough to get by for now but, I'm having the time of my life. Rotting in the sun, we're inside the jaws of life. I live in the vacant and the dark spaces, in between beats of your heart. Hiding in the places that you thought were empty, I'm having the time of my life. Rotting in the sun, we're inside the jaws of life. Maybe it's enough to get by for now, I'm having the time of my life. Rotting in the sun, we're inside. The jaws of life.
Damn The Man, Save The Empire
Heaven is a place here on your floor, I'm falling off the carpet edge, and it's a long way down. I laid before the monuments of love, now I'm buried underneath them. So maybe when we're old or dead, then we could all hang out. But probably not. No one likes this anyway, anyway, anyway. No one likes this anyway, anyway so. Tell me what I want, only what I want. Tell me what I want to hear now, you only see the dark side of my love. A fetish for the afterlife and dented microphones, sharp enough to cut. Now our lips are bleeding from the touch, but you don't see the difference between. The colour of the dry blood and the rust, tell me what I want. Only what I want, tell me what I want to hear. Tell me what I want, only what I want. Tell me what I want to hear, what if I told you I'm phasing out. And I'm not wearing any skin, I hope you leave a scar. Or can we just get deeper, heaven is a place we can't afford. Life goes on and on, the breeze feels nice. Maybe I should find another ride cause, no one likes this anyway, anyway, anyway. Tell me what I want, only what I want. Tell me what I want to hear, tell me what I want. Only what I want. Tell me what I want to hear.
Resilience
When the wildfire is over, and everything is gone. Incinerate my tires while we race into the wide open. See, I don't really wanna think about it, or how it all went wrong. Houston there's a problem, someone sucked out all of the sun. But I'm, I'm better tonight. Don't waste that hand, non operational for anything else. You're jealous of my resilience, when the royal crown is gone. And everything is ours, regenerate that kind of power. Reserved for the Marvel gods, see I've been coming to the realization. That all you do is shine, black lights to my problems. Swallow the dirt, you rotten swine. But I'm, I'm better tonight. Don't waste that hand, non operational for anything else. You're jealous of my resilience, and it's odd that I've. Been running into spider webs at night, and it's odd that I keep running in to spider webs at night. I'm better tonight, don't waste that hand. Non operational for anything else, jealous of my resilience. My resilience, my resilience.
Irrational Fears (Interlude)
In the unlikely event if the aircraft having to make an emergency landing. You'll be told to take this protective, the brace position. We hope you have a relaxed and enjoyable flight.
Shared Trauma
Am I still your excuse to go get high? Flatline who I am to stand record of time, if I go down in flames, then what's the point of even trying? Cause we share trauma, it takes it to break it, whoa-oh-oh. We share trauma and nothing's ever gonna erase it, so face it to you. (to you) I'm drawn across this universe (yeah, I am) For you (for you) I'm tempted from my dreams and curse, (in a) state of emergency. I'm afraid it's getting worse, cause we share trauma and as we share trauma, it takes it to break it. Whoa-oh-oh, we share trauma and nothing's ever gonna erase it. So face it. I'm running on empty, will you remind me? For better or worse? Afraid that all my rings and never ending tragedies. Will bleed my heart empty, and scare you away? Cause we share trauma and as we share trauma, it takes it to break it, whoa-oh-oh. We share trauma and nothing's ever gonna erase it, so face it. Oh (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,) We share this, we share this, we share it.
So Far So Fake
So far, so far, so fake. I don't wanna answer the phone, rather watch it rain. Away, take me away. Before I begin to enjoy the metallic taste, (the world is twisted) I know you wanna distance yourself from me. The head is only a dangerous dead weight, I'm cauterizing the veins you lacerate. In the end, you took it all away from me. Skin, flawless and thin. But your apologies are only selfish with vain intent, so what? Just like brain freeze, you'll fade. Now there's a fire in the speakers, and blood on the master tapes. (the world is twisted) I know you wanna distance yourself from me, the head is only a dangerous dead weight. I'm cauterizing the veins you lacerate, in the end you took it all away from me. I keep it hundred in case you twist your blade, I cut out because I think that I'm sick. Be still your heart, and do not resuscitate. In the end, you took it all away from me. These days I think are so strange, no cuts, no trust, name no names. Armless, we swim over flames. It's coming around this time, it's coming around this time. These days I think are so strange, no cuts, no trust, name no names. Armless, we swim over flames. It's coming around this time, it's coming around this time. I know you wanna distance yourself from me, the head is only a dangerous dead weight. I'm cauterizing the veins you lacerate, in the end, you took it all away from me. I keep it hundred in case you twist your blade, I cut you out because I don't think that I'm sick. Be still your heart, and do not resuscitate. In the end, you took it all away from me.
12 Fractures
Tell me, if I were to smile now. In the dead of the dark, would it even exist. Or is it hard to tell, you treat me like a cheap motel sometimes. But nevertheless, I was prepared to die. For that thin in your chest, forget your money. I fantasize about those nights, you held me down. And sewed your lips to mine, now I miss that pain sometimes. In this so called life, there were shortcuts into heaven through your eyes. We emptied our wrists on the dotted lines, now I stay on my side of the city. A refugee, no MTV. Oh well, thank God for THC. Now I miss that pain sometimes, in this so called life. There were shortcuts into heaven through your eyes. Now I miss that pain sometimes, in this so called life. There were shortcuts into heaven through your eyes. Am I the taste that you watered down, or am I the dust on your candy. You washed me off, then spit me out. Once I lost taste inside your mouth.
