Blood On My Hands

You felt the coldness in my eyes, and something I'm not revealing. Though you got used to my disguise, you can't shake this awful feeling. It's the me that I let you know, cause I never show I have my reasons. I hate to say that I told you so, but I told you so, yeah. There's blood on my hands, like the blood in you. Some things can't be treated, so don't make me, don't make me. Be myself around you. Straight from your eyes, it's barely me. Beautifully so disfigured, this other side that you can't see. Just praying you won't remember, feel the pain that I never show. And I hope you know it's never healing, I hate to say that I told you so. But I told you so, yeah. There's blood on my hands, like the blood in you. Some things can't be treated, so don't make, don't make me. Be myself around you, straight from your eyes it's barely me. Beautifully so disfigured, (there's blood) This other side that you can't see, just praying you won't remember. There's blood, there's blood. There's blood, blood, blood. There's blood on my hands, like the blood in you. Some things can't be treated, so don't make me, don't make me. Be myself around you. (There's blood) there's blood on my hands. (There's blood) like the blood in you. (There's blood) some things can't be treated. (There's blood) so don't make me, don't make me. Be myself around you. There's blood, is it really that hard for you to believe? 

Empty With You

I haven't lost anything except my mind, expect a thousand confessions that you will not find. I try to take off my head sometimes, because I can't escape the memories. I haven't lost anything except my mind (except my mind) You could be empty, and I can be right here empty with you. Or you could be hollow, and I can be right here hollow with you. If you want to say goodbye to everything, I could say goodbye too. I can be right here empty with you, I haven't wasted anything except my time. (except my time) Forget the treasures we burned because we'll be just fine, I try to take off my head sometimes. Because I can't escape for the life of me, I haven't lost anything except my mind (my mind) You could be empty, and I can be right here empty with you. Or you could be hollow, and I can be right here hollow with you. If you want to say goodbye to everything, I could say goodbye too. I can be right here empty with you. Instead of going underground, instead of calling them out. Instead of running cause you're still breathing. Instead of swallowing lies, instead of buried alive. Let's twist the knife, till they can't stop bleeding. If you need a confession, I'm guilty. Let's chase the knife till they can't stop bleeding. Do you think I feel sorry? Forgive me. Let's chase the knife till they can't stop bleeding, instead of going underground. Instead of calling them out, let's chase the knife till they can't stop bleeding. You could be empty, and I can be right here empty with you. Or you could be hollow, and I can be right here hollow with you. If you want to say goodbye to everything, I could say goodbye too. I can be right here empty with you. 

Born To Quit

Exorcise the demon that is living up inside you, after all you think you've been through. Just what have you been through? Try to get beside yourself, this tearing at your insides. And did you end up on the wrong side, always standing so strong. Sharpen up your teeth, your dreams are more than worth defending. In a fight that's never ending, go on. Go ahead and prove me wrong, the further you go, the less you know. You're born to quit, you've blown it. (you've blown it) You need to let go of letting go, you're full of shit. You're born to quit. Something supernatural, it seems it could possess you. No malevolence about you, then that might not be true. (that might not be true) How they care to demonize the messed up situation, how you killed all the angels taking notice of you. Sharpen up your teeth, your dreams are more than worth defending. In a fight that's never ending, go on. Go ahead and prove me wrong, the further you go, the less you know. You're born to quit, you've blown it. (you've blown it) You need to let go of letting go, you're full of shit you're born to quit. You've blown it, you're born to quit. Sharpen up your teeth, your dreams are more than worth defending. In a fight that's never ending, go on. Go ahead and prove me wrong, the further you go, the less you know. You're born to quit, you've blown it. (you've blown it) You need to let go of letting go, you're full of shit, you're born to quit. You've blown it, you're born to quit. You've blown it. (You've blown it) (You've blown it) 

Kissing You Goodbye

Cut yourself in conversation, cut the line to make me feel alive. Cause you know I'm not alive. And leave me with your complications, take your life you feel like taking mine. Leaving God we stand in line, not alone. Nowhere to go, I'm not leaving, not going. I'm not kissing you goodbye. On my own, I'm nothing, just bleeding. I'm not kissing you goodbye. Trust to take the right to leave me, waiting on the dark clouds for the rain. Praying lightning strikes the change, as history gets lost and as I take that final breath I felt alive. Leading God to stand in line, all alone. Nowhere to go, I'm not leaving, not going. I'm not kissing you goodbye. On my own, I'm nothing, just bleeding. I'm not kissing you goodbye. Don't let me go, don't say goodbye. Cause know that I'm not alive, don't let me go, don't say goodbye. Don't let this love die, don't let me go, don't say goodbye. Cause know that I'm not alive, don't let me go, don't say goodbye. Don't let this love die, nowhere to go, I'm not leaving, not going. I'm not kissing you goodbye. On my own, I'm nothing, just bleeding. I'm not kissing you goodbye, I'm not kissing you goodbye, I'm not kissing you goodbye. 

Sold My Soul

I think if the worm that I've become, left blind from the brightness of your halo. No one shines like you do, my filthy mouth and broken words. This small disease that leaves me crawling, crawling to you. Crawl under ground for comfort, stay close to the dark to keep from falling. From falling, sold my life to bring the rain. Maybe to wash we clean, sold my soul to stop the pain. Hoping you'd set me free, I have feared, I have saved. You know that you can lay it all on me, you can lay it all on me. I took every chance to latch my tongue, you wore the scabs just like an angel. There's something about you, horrible things that I have done. Seems this disease is slowly spreading, start running what would you do? I crawl on the ground for comfort, staying out of my mind to keep from dying. From dying, sold my life to bring the rain. Maybe to wash me clean, sold my soul to stop the pain. Hoping you'd set me free, I have feared I have saved. You know that you can lay it all on me, you know that you can lay it all on me. Could you forget then what I say, and how I died inside my head. We're starting over, not pretending that the past is dead. All the pain you feel you own, and the times I should've known. Don't keep it inside, let it out and lay it all on me. Sold my life to bring the rain, maybe to wash me clean. Sold my soul to stop the pain, hoping you'd set me free. I have feared all the pain, you know that you can lay it all on me, you can lay it all on me. 

Watered Down

In my eyes, course and jaded. It's no surprise the lights have faded, I always walk away. You'll always hear me say, I don't need this. I've been given such a gift, shame to take advantage of it. Watch it, wasting leaves you wanting more. Be careful what you're wishing for, nothing that I can hold on to, with my broken hands. Not thinking that I should anyway, so I leave holding nothing. Don't care what you say, cause it makes no difference if I throw it away. Yeah, it makes no difference if I throw it away. Now my days are feeling numbered, this sad cliche I'm hiding under. This spider web or dreams, I'm stuck here as it seems to be breaking. Shining brighter than you burn, something that I would never learn. I could never lay this curse on you, cursing the days where there's, nothing that I can hold on to. With my broken hands, not thinking that I should anyway. So I leave holding nothing, don't care what you say. Cause it makes no difference if I throw it away, cause it makes no difference. Yeah, it makes no difference if I throw it away. Makes no difference if I throw it away. Throw it away, throw it away. It all just ends up tasting watered down, (instead of being so complicated) And everyone has found an easy way out, an easy way out. Nothing that I can hold on to, with my broken hands. Not thinking that I should anyway, so I leave holding nothing. Don't care what you say, cause it makes no difference if I throw it away. Cause it makes no difference, yeah, it makes no difference if I throw it away. Throw it away, throw it away. Get outta town by Sunday, I say if they don't get outta town. We kill the men, we kill the women, we kill the children, we kill the babies, we kill the blind, we kill the crippled, we kill the crazy.

On The Cross

We were taught to kneel and bow our heads, tried simply standing up instead. Heard rumors of transparent legs, and walked for days and days. These days we reach for so much more, we reached the point where we can't go home. Alone, we wait here underground. Amidst the others waiting, so pray then. If it makes you feel safe, but all I can say is we go our own way. We go our own way, so save us. You were guessed, you were the chosen one. The right place, you were the firstborn son. Once questioned stable state of mind, to spend some time in the gutter. A full collapse and caving in, just wait for faith to kick in. Lost track of time as I stood in line, amidst the other believers. So pray then, if it makes you feel safe. All I can say is, we go our way. So pray then, if it makes you feel safe. All I can say is we go our own way, we go our own way. So save us. Over and over and I still cannot believe, we can't save ourselves. Give me a chance up on the cross and watch me bleed, now ask for help. Having faith in something you can't see, takes something else. Over and over and I still cannot believe, we can save ourselves. So pray then, if it makes you feel safe. All I can say (all I can say) is we go our own way. So pray then, if it makes you feel safe. All I can say (all I can say) Is we go our own way, send your prayers our way. To save us. 

Come Undone

Opened up my failure, when you refused to go insane. I felt you get excited, when I whispered all the things you love to hate. Like you're the one who kills, could kill me with a drug, your weapon. Let's pretend there's nothing wrong with my direction. (Hate me) I'll be your, your loaded gun. (Burn me) Waiting to come undone, I'll set it up inside you. To watch you burn. (Hate me) I'll be the, I'll be the end that you deserve. Open lacerations, a slower cut to feel your pain. Heat the blood to boiling, as it passes from your lips into your brain. Cause you're the one who kills, could kill me with a drug, your weapon. Let's pretend that, I'm not dead, it's in your head. (Hate me) I'll be your, your loaded gun. (Burn me) Waiting to come undone, I'll set it up inside you, to watch you burn. (Hate me) I'll be the, I'll be the end that you deserve. I'll be the end that you deserve. I can turn you on like fire, set fire deep inside you. Eat you alive and watch you, come and let me up on the sonisphere. I'll be your, I'll be your, I'll be your. I'll be the end that you deserve. (Hate me) I'll be your, your loaded gun. (Burn me) Waiting to come undone, I'll set it up. To watch you burn. (Hate me) I'll be the, I'll be the end that you deserve. I'll be the end that you deserve. 

Meant To Die

Past midnight, breathing in the dark. Same strange friend comes to visit, never intend to open the door. You take it to places that no one's ever been, you let in. You let in. Your insides caving in, you pushed and pulled, still wanting some more. This time I've gone all the way, without you. There's nothing more I can say, so maybe I took a little too much. Maybe life didn't want this part of me, if it helps to know, I never let you. Sure, I lost my mind. But I never really meant to die, last heartbeat's fading in the night. Only expected darkness, surprised to wake and follow the light. The second you let it become a part of you, you'll never forget it. No matter what you do. You lost it all, still wanting some more. This time I've gone all the way, without you. There's nothing more I can say, so maybe I took a little too much. Maybe life didn't want this part of me, if it helps to know. I never let you go. I'm sorry I lost my mind, so baby I took a little too much. Maybe you sucked the life right out of me,  should have let you know. I never meant to go, sure I lost my mind. But I never really meant to die. Never stay forever, never stay forever. Come on. Never stay forever, never stay forever. Come on, so maybe I took a little too much. Maybe life didn't want this part of me, if it helps to know. I never let you go, I'm sorry I lost my mind. So baby, I took a little too much. Maybe you sucked the life right out of me, I should have let you know, I never meant to go. Sure I lost my mind, but I never really meant to die. 

The Best Of Me

I could forget your name, I could forget your face forever. I could forget about the smile you always faked, the one you thought I bought but never. I could forget your lies, I could forget the height for always. I could forget how desperately you tried, flattery will get you nowhere. I could forget how you had, tried to get the best of me. You'll never forget that you never got me, you never got me. Real nice to know that you care, to leave me soaking wet. I'm so surprised you weren't dead, you make me want to forget. (Make me want to forget) I could forget your pride, I could forget your wandering eyes. I could forget about the way you made me feel, you talked to me so condescending. I could forget how you had tried to get the best of me, you'll never forget that you never got me. You never got me, real nice to know that you care. To leave me soaking wet, I'm so surprised you weren't dead. You make me want to forget, real nice to know that you cared. To leave me soaking wet, I'm so surprised you weren't dead. You make me want to forget, never got me, never. Real nice to know, that you cared. To leave me soaking wet, I'm so surprised you weren't dead. You make me want to forget, real nice to know that you care. To leave me soaking wet, I'm so surprised you weren't dead. You make me want to forget, you make me, you make me. You make me want to forget, you make me. F*** you.

Men Are All The Same

Always safe to know, what is good for taking blood stains from your clothes. Like I said before, when I bite your tongue out of your mouth, you'll know. (You'll know) Just what am I supposed to say, and tell you why I turned out this way. Don't make me, don't make me. If you love it, then let it go. And how I died, you'll never know. Just don't blame me, don't hate me. You'll never make it alone. (It's easier to go) You've always been on your own. (It's easier to go) Nothing safe feels real, waiting here to die. Just hoping I reveal (There's something) Picking up my brains, you can tell your mom that men are all the same. (The same) Just what am I supposed to say? And tell you why I turned out this way, don't make me, don't make me. If you love it, then let it go. And how I died, you'll never know. Just don't blame me, don't hate me. You'll never make it alone, (it's easier to go) you've always been on your own. (it's easier to go) You'll have to pay to watch me die, then I'll love you more. You'll never make it alive, it's easier to go, it's easier to go. Nowhere to go, not leaving, not going. I'm not kissing you goodbye. On my own, I'm nothing, just bleeding. I'm not kissing you goodbye. She'll never make it alone, (nowhere to go, not leaving) you've always been on your own. (Not going, I'm not kissing you goodbye) She'll never make it alone. (On my own, I'm nothing) You've always been on your own. (Just bleeding, I'm not kissing you goodbye) She'll never make it alone. (nowhere to go) You've always been on your own. (Not going, I'm not kissing you goodbye. She'll never make it alone. (On my own, I'm nothing) You've always been on your own. (Just bleeding, I'm not kissing you goodbye)
