 Armor For Sleep-Smile For Them Album Lyrics

Smile For The Camera

What if you find out everyone that's in your life, is only being paid off by a TV studio. And every conversation everyone's had with you, was scripted by the writers living in Los Angeles. Smile for the camera. Put on a show for the viewers back home, hide the truth so they'll never know. You hate what you got, can't you love what you got? So smile for the cameras that keep rolling, (smile for the cameras that keep rolling) Smile for the cameras that keep rolling. What if you find out everything that's in your life, was only put in in front of you. By people waiting for you to fall. And every time you trip up, it's all just a game. Nothing's really mattered and nothing was as bad as you thought it was. Smile for the camera. Put on a show for the viewers back home, hide the truth so they'll never know. You hate what you got, can't you love what you got? So smile for the cameras that keep rolling, (smile for the cameras that keep rolling) Smile for the cameras that keep rolling. The banquet, the recession, it was all for you. Affectionate obsession from the masses grew, little did they all know. You're just scared, you're just scared. You're just scared of when, they'll write you off your own show. Put on a show for the viewers back home, hide the truth so they'll never know. You hate what you got, can't you love what you got? So smile for the cameras that keep rolling (smile for the cameras that keep rolling) Smile for the cameras that keep rolling. (Smile for the cameras) Love what you got, can't you love what you got? Love what you got, can't you love what you got? Love what you got, can't you love what you got? (Smile for them) Love what you got, can't you love what you got? Love what you got, can't you love what you got? Love what you got, can't you love what you got? Love what you got, can't you love what you got?

Williamsburg

Hold your own, jacket please. I'm not in the mood, millions of trains under the ground. This city was the blueprint for hell. Passed out, sleeping at your party. Dream of leaving in the morning, you will all die in Williamsburg. Too hip to even clean your nose out, your grave is pulling at your pants now. You will all die in Williamsburg. Bored again, watching the rats. Eat all your food. At least you'll be used to the place you'll be soon, this city was the blueprint for hell. Passed out, sleeping at your party. Dream of leaving in the morning. You will all die in Williamsburg. Too hip to even clean your nose out, your grave is pulling at your pants now. You will all die in Williamsburg. Do you know how obvious you are? You were born in New Hampshire, but you say you're from the O.C. Brooklyn's a deathbed, for clones of the same kid. Stuck in the party, that was lame to begin with. At least you'll be used to, the place that you'll be soon. This city was the blueprint for hell. Passed out, sleeping at your party. Dream of leaving in the morning. You will all die in Williamsburg. Too hip to even clean your nose out, your grave is pulling at your pants now. You will all die in Williamsburg. You will all die. 

Somebody Else's Arms

Saw you laughing aloud to your friends, when I was across the room. I was across the room. I'm sick of standing alone when you're here, who's good enough for you? Who's good enough for you? Well it's only love it's not real anyways, it's only love, it's not real. You're gonna die in somebody else's arms, and I have to live with that. You're gonna die in somebody else's arms, and I have to live with that. But I hope you have a good life, hope you have a good life. Well I hope you have a good life, and I'll say send me a card when you can, to where you think you should be. Are where you think you should be? And too bad, you're missing the boat and I'm gone. Call me when you come around. Will you call me when you come around? Well it's only love it's not real anyway. It's only love, it's not real. You're gonna die in somebody else's arms, and I have to live with that. You're gonna die in somebody else's arms, and I have to live with that. But I hope you have a good life, hope you have a good life. Well I hope you have a good life, hope you have a good life. I'll be happy to see you happy, if it's with me or without me around. I'll be happy to see you happy, if it's with me or without me around. There's too much, too much I know I'll never say. Please take me back, please take me back. But you're gonna die in somebody else's arms, and I have to live with that. You're gonna die in somebody else's arms, and I have to live with that. (I have to live) Well I hope you have a good life, hope you have a good life. Well I hope you have a good life, hope you have a good life. Well I hope you have a good life, hope you have a good life. 

Hold The Door

There's plenty of space for me in the back of your car, I can move all your things around. Was standing alone on the side of the road, till I saw your headlights catch me. I keep to myself on the right, trying hard to hide all the dirt that covers me. You only can hide who you are if you don't care where you're going anyway. I don't wanna be who I was back then, (I almost lost you again) I don't wanna see through the eyes of a liar (hold the door for me) I set them of fire back there, they didn't know what hit them. It's always the ones you never suspect, don't want to accept what I've become. I don't wanna be who I was back then. (I almost lost you again) I don't wanna see through the eyes of a liar. (Hold the door for me) I don't wanna be who I was back then, I almost lost you again. I don't wanna see through the eyes of a liar, hold the door for me, for me. Don't wanna take the wheel from you, just keep on driving, keep on driving. Just tell me what you want me to do, just keep on driving, keep on driving. I don't wanna be who I was back then, I almost lost you. I don't wanna be who I was back then, I almost lost you. I don't wanna be, who I was back then. I almost lost you again. I don't wanna see through the eyes of a liar, hold the door for me. I don't wanna be who I was back then, I almost lost you again. I don't wanna see through the eyes of a liar. Hold the door for me. I don't wanna be who I was back then, I almost lost you again. I don't wanna see through the eyes of a liar, hold the door for me. Hold the door for me, for me. 

Run Right Back In

I've got soul working for me half the time, only when I'm half alive. Thinking of someone else. I saw you praying just to pray for me, I felt something happening, I was just falling asleep. But thanks for your help, thanks for your help. Pulling me from the flames, (and stop the fire) I'll just wait till you leave, then run right back in. I'll run right back in, I'll run right back in, I'll run right back in. I've got plans mostly just to hang around, hoping for a hand me down. Staring at my bright future, I drive around waving like a sad parade. At the kids all out to play. I'm good, go have fun on your own. But thanks for your help, thanks for your help. Pulling me from the flames, ( and stop the fire) I'll just wait till you leave, then run right back in. I'll run right back in, I'll run right back in, I'll run right back in. Can you see my room from there, burning, burning? Pulling me from the flames, (can try to pull me out) Pulling me from the flames (can try to pull me out) I'll run right back in, I'll run right back in, I'll run right back in. Pulling me from the flames, pulling me from the flames, pulling me from the flames. I'll run right back in. 

Snow Globe

I used to believe that no one else was alive, that all of the world was just a show. Inside my own mind. The dog's on a leash, tied to a pole shaking above the snow. I try to pretend, I try to pretend. Everything's just in my head. The choirs in line, belting its soul over the dying crowd. Singing for love, their voices will soar. And disappear through the floor. I used to believe that no one else was alive. That all the world was just a show, inside my own mind. 

End Of The World

Tidal waves are gonna swallow your town alive, terrorists are gonna poison all our skies. Bodies are gonna wash up on the beach, hell is gonna bring your parents to their knees. You escape, I'll stay. I'm so tired of running away. I wanna stay at home for the end of the world, falling asleep while they're dropping the bomb, this is all a dream. That's what I'll be singing. I wanna stay at home for the end of the world, falling asleep while they're dropping the bomb. This is all a dream, that's what I'll be singing. Pack all your bags, and lock all your doors behind. Clear out the cities and pray for your little lives. You've all escaped, I've stayed. I'm so tired of running away. I wanna stay at home for the end of the world, falling asleep while they're dropping the bomb. This is all a dream, that's what I'll be singing. I wanna stay at home for the end of the world, falling asleep while they're dropping the bomb. This is all a dream, that's what I'll be singing. Everything around you is gonna turn into the biggest pile of ashes, that you could ever imagine. Everything around you is gonna turn into the biggest pile of nothingness. So keep on running, keep on running. I wanna stay at home for the end of the world, falling asleep while they're dropping the bomb. This is all a dream, that's what I'll be singing. I wanna stay at home, I wanna stay at home, I wanna stay at home, I wanna stay at home. This is all a dream, that's what I'll be singing. This is all a dream, that's what I'll be singing. 

Stars In Your Eyes

Na, na na na, na na na. Na, na na na, na na na. I was swimming slowly through the pools in my head, when I felt a cold hand wrap around my throat. And pull me out of my little day dream. I was sailing backwards through the wind in my head, when I saw the lights turn on and you were dragging me out. Again in my little day dream. The stars in your eyes, they are burning you alive. I was better off all alone, in my own world. I'm not gonna fall for something I made up, I was better off all alone in my own world. Na, na na na. Na, na na na, na na na. I was chasing comets with a butterfly net, thinking I could pull one down again. But I was just slipping into my little day dream, California plastic melted your heart away, and I'm never gonna go back again. Cause I was just perfect here in my little day dream. The stars in your eyes, they are burning you alive. I was better off all alone in my own world. I'm not gonna fall for something I made up, I was better off all alone in my own world. I was better off left alone, I was better off left alone. Stars in your eyes, they drag me away this time. I get so bored, everything is working out just fine. That I have to get tangled in something. I get so bored, everything is working out just fine. I have to get tangled in something, tangled in something. I can't help myself. The stars in your eyes, they are burning you alive. I was better off all alone in my own world, I'm not gonna fall for something I made up. I was better off all alone in my own world. Na, na na na. Na, na na na. (I was better off left alone) 

Lullaby

Didn't they teach you? Everything's okay, if you settle enough? Forget your dreams, let's pretend I'm everything you want me to be. Complicated breathing, you never had the guts just to throw me away. Life moves slow, when everything's a worse version of what you need. And I'm just the ground that you happened to fall on, when you lost your balance. Walking around, in the rain. And you got to your feet, scratched your head. And started to gather. The life that you dropped all around me. I can't fight for a graveyard anymore. Some people have their money, to keep their legs pumping away at the ground. What moves me is fear, that I'll always be alone at the end of the day. (at the end of the day) And I'm just the ground that you happened to fall on, when you lost your balance. Walking around in the rain. And you got to your feet, scratched your head. And started to gather, the life that you dropped all around me. I can't fight for a graveyard anymore, I can't fight for a graveyard anymore. I'm just the ground, that you happened to fall on. I'm just the ground, I'm just the ground, I'm just the ground. And I'm just the ground that you happened to fall on, when you lost your balance. Walking around in the rain, and you got to your feet. Scratched your head, and started to gather. The life that you dropped all around me. I'm just the ground, I'm just the ground, I'm just the ground, I'm just the ground. I can't fight for a graveyard anymore. 

Chemicals

The lights in your room keep on blinking off, and I'm on my back on your floor. Tell me how you fooled the world again, I like how you laughed when you tell it. Play dead, cause I'll be playing dead with you. I'll play you, when you're dead in a year or two. Can you please me point me to your chemicals, I need to feel like I've got rocks in my eyelids. The only superhero I've ever known was you, about five years ago. It was you about five years ago. The lights outside turn into knives on me and I forget how to get home, it only feels like it's the summer now. Cause everyone's always wearing the wrong clothes. Play dead, cause I'll be playing dead with you. I'll play you, when you're dead in a year or two. Can you please point me to your chemicals, I need to feel like I've got rocks in my eyelids. The only superhero I've ever known was you, about five years ago. It was you, about five years ago. I can picture your coffin in the hallway, and your family standing inside the doorway. They'll point all their fingers at me say, where are your drugs today? We need them. Where are your drugs, we need an escape. Where are your drugs today? We need them. Where are your drugs, we need an escape. Can you please point me to your chemicals, I need to feel like I've got rocks in my eyelids. The only superhero I've even know was you, about five years ago. Was you about five years ago. Where are your drugs, today we need them. Where are your drugs, we need an escape. Where are your drugs, today we need them. Where are your drugs we need an escape. Where are your drugs, today we need them. Where are your drugs? 

My Saving Grace

Am I toy to you? With strings around my fingers, for you to pull and watch as I collapsed when you want. The coldest night to me, is a switch that you can't control. Tip-toe around your words, just to calm you down again. There's too many people that we both love, and too many secrets I don't wanna know. You're still chasing him, my saving grace, is saving face. Lost on the back burner, good for, good for you. My saving grace, is saving face. I just sit and wait. There's always just enough of you to pull me back, but I can see your eyes drifting past what you have. I'm flagging down a ship when it's on its way to sea, the horn is blaring out, but I just don't want to believe. I never left you in a sandstorm, I never left you for a second at all. You're still chasing him. My saving grace is saving face. Lost on the back burner. Good for, good for you. My saving grace is saving face, I just sit and wait. I thought you were an angel, I guess you were a vulture. Either way, spread your wings and just fly away. You're still chasing him. My saving grave, is saving face. Lost on the back burner. Good for, good for you. My saving grace, is saving face. I just sit and wait. I just sit and wait. (Spread your wings and fly away) 

Stand In The Spotlight

They can't see your heart, they don't care to see who you are. They're just a pack of wolves, don't let them break you down. Don't let them break you down. You are the starlight that sparks up the whole night, just let their voices fade out and stand in the spotlight. Take a bow. Everybody's lost, most people think they're not. But I'm losing you now, I don't think I can at all. Don't let them break you down. You are the starlight that sparks up the whole night, just let their voices fade out and stand in the spotlight. And take a bow. Please don't run away from me, I don't wanna find you lost in their lies. Please don't make a fool of me. (a fool of me now) Cause I don't wanna find you lost and alone. One day they'll see, one day they'll all see. One day they'll be shouting the truth, one day they'll all be cheering for you. They'll all be cheering for you, they'll all be cheering for you, they'll all be cheering for you. You are the starlight, that sparks up the whole night. just let their voices fade out and stand in the spotlight. Take a bow.
