I wear mask
in this masked town
covered in darkness
ask anyone around
this is no means a dead town
ask around
look in our eyes
you'll see the fear
of what you said you despised
its all one big happy lie
and our tears
fall from your sky
you can't hear us
but were all asking
"why?"
"why?'
"why"

Was I first?
Second?
Third?
How many others have you hurt?
How many other voices
We're not heard?
How many many are dead?
You played with our heads
What a way to start
But were gonna tear you apart
The monsters you made were human
But we are no way
humane
now
see how many more you can tame

Do I need you to survive?
yes!
Is that a lie?
no!
Put your love to the test
Can you survive longer than the rest?
Oh its such a mess!
But, hey!
maybe it'll be all
ok
maybe you really deserve to
stay

hey doll,
wanna play?

"thats all you had to say"

stuck in my head
I cant tell if you
love me
or want me dead
doesn't matter, your in my head
your loves so sweet
but your oh so mean
blood on my hands
looking at me
like you don't know who I am
way to drunk to stand
now I'm crashing
but I know I'll land
right back in your hands

sewing my arms shut
from emotional blood spilling out
only to cut through it
i couldn't do it

Its a new day
step out of my shadows
my curtains made of tears
stepping into the light might bring fear
but I can feel the warmth
a new start
but this may be the hardest part

Sit on the ground
watch the parade march around
go through the whole town
no one notices
that jugglers are choking
and the little kids are smoking
the balloons are deflating
everything escalating
and its so frustrating
but the pills are sedating
