the first time
that I felt
your gravity
our worlds
collided and I
was devastated
but I stood
in the ashes
and I had
faith in...
you, me
this, us

I begged you
please please
don't go
down that
desolate road

now I don't
know who
you are
and I don't
recognize
myself
don't know
what this is
I can't even
remember
what we
were like

I begged you
please please
don't go
down that
desolate road
if you do
you'll be
going alone

She's got your eyes
She's got your smile
She's got your voice
But she looks for weakness
She lusts for my blood
She uses her tongue as a weapon
She's not the girl I know
I'm sorry I looked away
when you were searching
in my eyes for what you
couldn't say
I know I've made mistakes
but I've never ever ever
ran away
She's got my memories
She's got my heart
She's got pictures
But she wants to forget
She wants to break it
She wants to keep it in a box
She's not the girl I love
I'm sorry I looked away
when you were searching
in my eyes for what you
couldn't say
I know I've made mistakes
but I've never ever ever
ran away

I didn't know when
you were giving me a light
that you would lead
me into darkness
I didn't think when
we were making out
I was making the biggest
mistake of my life

should've left me
before I loved you
believe me
I never wanted to

I never knew while
I was falling in love
I was falling into
the deepest hole
how could I know
you wrapped your arms
around me just to
stab me in the back?

should've killed me
before we built our life
believe me
I just wanted that night

can't hate you
for what you didn't do
can't blame you
for what I should've done

should've never
lit that cigarette
that ****** burned
my fortress down.

You're name pops up
on my phone
***?!
Leave me alone
but...
I'd be a liar like you
if I said that
My heart didn't inquire
every now and then
where you've been

Don't get it twisted
Reading into
What I just said
It's not like I miss you
I miss being distracted
from the outside world
thinking it was just
the two of us

Let's not speak about
what we just did
Sometimes I think
You do things to me
Just to see
If you still can
To see if you're flame
Still burns me

indulge in the days of your youth
for they are few
they are futile
rejoice in the insanity of today
for you will miss
all of it someday
is that you pulling on my sleeve?
or am I just caught on a memory?
all I have left of the year
I spent under your spell
is that big dent in my car
and a hole in my heart
run the cities streets until
you wear the shoes
off of your feet
make the most of tonight
because none's promised
the morning light
is that you pulling on my sleeve?
or am I just caught up a memory?
all I have left of the life
we built with our blood and tears
is a scar on my arm and
a chill in my spine

It starts with a thought,
And you think almost nothing of it
There's poison working it way
From your brain to your heart
Pumping black blood
Through your veins
By the time you bleed,
It will be too late

She's not the cure,
She is the strain.

And you feel it in your bones
It won't leave you alone
And you chase the only escape
From the constant pain
And you love every sick second
All the terror and the tension

So you've got this nervous tick
And you just can't control it
That's her working on your last nerve
She's flirting with disaster
Her love like a pathogen,
By the time you have any symptoms
You'll have one foot
in the gave

She's not the cure,
She is the strain.

And you feel it in your bones
It won't leave you alone
And you chase the only escape
From the constant pain
And you love every sick second
All the terror and the tension

she said,
"keep your
pretty little
head up"
don't cry,
don't waste
your mascara
you better
believe she's
not crying
for you
you better
believe she's
not dying
to be
with you
get up
on your
feet and
make her
see what
she's missing

you wrap
around me
like a snake
I can't breathe
I can't move
I'll suffocate
if I don't
get away
from you

you used
to say
we're never
gonna be
like everybody
else is
we're never
gonna take
each other
for granted
you're never
gonna stop
holding
my hand

you wrap
around me
like a snake
I can't breathe
I can't move
I'll suffocate
if I don't
get away
from you

if I don't
get away
from you...

I dont care to know
where you roam
I'm walking the
bar district alone
I'm not your girl
I'm just a friend now
I'm not your world
you don't have
to pretend now
in my hands my
phone feels cold
will you call tonight
asking me to come home?
You're not my girl
you're somebody else
We shared our own world
but you kept it to yourself
I don't even remember
the straw,the last fight
the tug that tore us apart
turned day into night
I don't care whats
been done wrong
I don't want to write
this broken heart song
I want to lie naked
in your arms and
not feel exposed
I want to go where
the night takes me
but still feel close
I'm not your girl
I'm just another dead end
I'm not your homeland
There's nothing to defend

doesn't matter how clever I am
I can't figure this out
doesn't matter how beautiful I am
I can't captivate you
doesn't matter how good I am
it's just all bad
you've stolen my smile
you smothered my laughter
you used my tears to wash
the blood off of your hands
all of the screaming and crying
all of the pushing and fighting
now you tell me there's nothing
left between us
doesn't matter how far I go
I'm still here for you
doesn't matter what I say
you're not listening
doesn't matter how loyal I am
You'll betray me
you've stolen my smile
you smothered my laughter
you used my tears to wash
the blood off of your hands
all of the screaming and crying
all of the pushing and fighting
now you tell me there's nothing
left between us

Forgive you?
I wish I could
Wash my mind clean of this
Like you washed away
the evidence

I can't get it out of my head
Her hands all over your skin
I wonder did she smell me?
Did she feel my impression?
I never questioned you,
I questioned myself

Forget about it?
I wish I never knew
Common sense tells me
to write this down

We tied the knot,
The noose around my neck
And when I fell for you
I fell to my death
I'd like to think that I
would not do it all again

Forgive myself?
Well, I wish I could
Shake this feeling
Like I did something wrong

I know I'm in love with
a charactor you made up
I know she's a villain,
I know I'm to play the victim
This is not a love story
This is an account of history

Forget this?*
I wish I didn't have to
Know that true love exists
And I let it slip
Through my hands

(THIS IS REALLY A VERY PRETTY SONG<3)

there's something about
the way I move
that makes a liar
out of you
I know you mean those
words when they're
falling out of your mouth
but it won't mean a thing
by the time you get it all out

it's like a sickness
that you expel

I don't mind
watching you glow
when you say
that you don't care
it's the silence
that takes the toll

there's something about
the way you move
that makes a fool
out of me
I know you're running
around on me
I'll admit that I can't
resist the chase
but I don't want to
finish this race

it's like a sickness
that you expel

I don't mind
watching you glow
when you say
that you don't care
it's the silence
that takes the toll

yeah, it's the silence
that swallows
me
whole.

if you get close enough to me
I'm not free
I'm not free
if you make a home for me
I'm your pet
I'm your pet
I don't wanna be that
I don't wanna be that
won't be the calm
before your storm
I won't be the nails
that you hang from
I won't be your anything
I'm nobody
I'm just roaming the streets
trying to stay alive
if you start feeding me
I'll crave you
I'll crave you
if you start taking care of me
I'll need you
I'll need you
I don't wanna do that
I don't wanna do that
won't be the calm
before your storm
I won't be the nails
that you hang from
I won't be your anything
I'm nobody
I'm just roaming the streets
trying to stay alive

Your name in my phone
has been "don't answer me" for months
From time to time, I think
about how sad it is that it
has come to this divided identity

I can't keep your name off my lips
I can't wash my hands clean of this
I'm so guilty...I'm so guilty
but I'll die before I confess

You turned the tables on me like a DJ
Spinning an infectious melody
That I hate but can't get out of my head
But I will never love you again

Your name incites
a million tiny riots inside of me
And to think it's been
that way since the moment we met
Oh my sick muse, how could I forget?

I can't keep your name off my lips
I can't wash my hands clean of this
I'm so guilty...I'm so guilty
but I'll die before I confess

You turned the tables on me like a DJ
Spinning an infectious melody
That I hate but can't get out of my head
But I can never be with you again

so you go
but leave your key
you're not allowed
back inside of me
don't know why
I keep expecting
anything less obscene
knowing your cruelty
far exceeds any
hole inside of me
don't know why
I keep expecting
a ******* miracle
knowing the cancer
growing inside of me
when did I get bit
by this infectious madness
when did I turn into
a blood thirsty beast
how can you go on
knowing you did
this to me
how can you claim
to be the victim
knowing the disease
that you left
inside of me
I'll never be
rid of you
but I will
be over you
I will transcend
this addiction
that leaves me
screaming for you
I won't go
no I shouldn't
have to go
I don't know why
I let you make me
the trespasser
knowing that you
came here and
I haven't moved
I don't know why
I keep rationalizing
your dependency on power
knowing that you are
the monster I created  
so you go
you go
you go
before I throw
you out.

You step to the left, I step to the right
Been stepping on each other toes all night
We used to move together like fluent tongues
Dancing instinctively to our own song

But winter's chill took over our bodies,
Froze our hearts and devastated our minds
We used to play on the same team,
Used to pass the ball to you when
I was surrounded by the enemy
But you dropped the ball...

You shut down, and a explode
We somewhat expected this meltdown
Kept a blind eye to the unstable core
Until we reached a critical point

Summer's heat drenched us in regret
Now we're drowning in our own skin
We used to walk together,
The world was so alive and so were we
And I watched everything die
along with you inside of me...

This once fertile land, is now a cemetary
What once was alive and beautiful
Grew feble and sickly with times decay

But oh, like a tree in the fall
You and I will be stripped bare,
But oh, like sweet spring
Life will return to our putrified limbs

The rain almost seemed alive as it scattered
from the trees and houses onto the hot ground.
It was cold.
The coupling of the two bore a thin, ghostly steam.
The night hugged her like a warm vignette.
She wore gypsy boots, a cowl hoodie, and a camera around her neck.
She liked the way the lights danced in the water.
As the steam lingered, as if hypnotized by the slick, black diamonds slowly dripping from the sky.
The music in her head, as does her voice, has no sound.
Not silent.
Not to be heard, to be played.
It is the only thing that moves her.
She almost seems happy when she's dancing in the rain.

have you ever woken up
screaming?
have you ever wanted to
tear everything you love
into pieces?

nothing satisfies me like
it did
there's a mouth watering
craving that has
borne its way right
through me

you take
it all
you fake
a fall
you wait
for
an encore
but I
don't
play
anymore.

have you ever stopped
dreaming?
when you find out
nothing is what it seems
and it never stops
bleeding

nothing touches me like
it did
left a wound so wide
and so deep it never
closed again

you take
it all
you fake
a fall
you wait
for
an encore
but I
don't
play
anymore.

I'll sing this song
for you
I'll give you my all
but I don't want to
everybody says
I'm still in love
but thats not it
I'm just so addicted
that I can't quit

strike the bell
call the match
it's all gone to hell
this can't be fixed

I'll bear this cross
for your sins
I'll fall on my knees
but I don't believe
in any of this
everybody thinks
that I'm a martyr
but I don't have anything
worth dying for

blast the sirens
call the time of death
you can keep trying
to save me but
I've already ascended

You move through me like blood
Always in and out of my heart
If I lose all of you
I know that I will die
The sun rises every morning
But there is no light
And when it goes down
I lose myself in a crowd
And I don't dream anymore
I just playback memories
Like a movie I've seen before
Am I like the drag from your cigarette?
Blackening your insides
You **** me in, you ******* out
You know you should stop
But you're addicted
If you quit me completely
You'll be going thru withdrawal
you can pretend that your
body isn't fiending for me
when you're not on me
you feel nothing

Please don't do this
Don't run away again
Your immunity to my tears
Drives me ******* insane
Are you really going to
Make me watch this die?
Are you really going to
Tell me another lie?
Everything you ever gave,
Pales in comparison to what you take
Everything we every made
Pale in comparison to what you break
Please don't leave like this
Don't walk away angry again
Your thirst for my blood
Is beyond what I can explain
Are you really going to
Treat me like you hate me?
Are you really going to
Hold me down and **** me?
Everything you ever gave,
Pales in comparison to what you take
Everything we every made
Pale in comparison to what you break

If anyone asks,
I was never here
what happens tonight
is neither here nor there

you put me through hell
expecting me to be an angel
you dragged me through the mud
expecting me to come clean

Tonight, I'm a ghost
You can't touch me
Even if you see me
You won't believe

If anyone asks,
I couldn't care less
What happened last night
Just whispers behind my back

you asked me for my heart
expecting that not to leave a hole
you stripped me of everything
expecting me to still have my diginity

Tonight, I'm a ghost
You can't touch me
Even if you see me
You won't believe

nobody gets what they deserve
nobody gets a second chance
nobody gets what they give
you get what you get

If anyone asks,
I was never here
what happens tonight
is neither here nor there

you're drifting
away from me
I feel you ripping
away slowly like
a band-aid
I won't be your
anchor this time
I am just a wound
that you never
let heal right

you say it makes
you sick the way
my face lights up
when I say her name
And I can't deny
You've caught me
Red handed
Is is still a lie If I
Don't want it to be true?

You're breaking
down on me
Like a vehicle
Leaving me stranded
So far out of
my boundaries
I can never come
back from this place
I won't fix you again
But I'm too invested
to just trade you in

you say it makes
you sick the way
my face lights up
when I say her name
And I can't deny
You've caught me
Red handed
Is is still a lie If I
Don't want it to be true?

This is my silent confession...
I don't know if I have
what it takes to be a woman
And walk away from you now
I miss the way you
would beg for me stay so
you could wake up next to me
Now there's nothing
left between me and you
But this invisible thread

And it pulls me
back and fourth
Like a pendulum
But I don't have the time

This is my silent confession...
I don't know if I can
live the rest of my life
Knowing you were once mine
And we'll always wonder
If we would've listened
If we would've shut our mouths
What would've happened
If we could've slowed down
If we never got lost in the crowd

And it haunts me
Like a guilty heart
pounding in my head
Eventhough I cut it out

Watch me walk away
I get lost in the darkness
I like the way it covers me
I like the way it changes me
I search the night for
what was stolen from me
I roam the streets looking for
something to occupy my mind
I get lost in it
I get lost in it
We dance in our underwear
fall out of love
We wear last nights mascara
out to the club
We don't care
We don't care
Watch me dance anyway
I get lost in the crowd
I like the way we move to the beat
I like the way we forget the world
I search all the faces for
someone to captivate me
I have a lot of suitors but
No one takes me away
I'm so lost in it
I'm so lost in it
We drink to silence the voices
ghosts of lovers past
We live as if everyday
is our last
We don't care
We don't care
We don't care

you're always on my nerves
to think of all the lines you crossed
and the one line you could never walk
just thinkin of how you did me wrong
and dancing away like you're having fun

oh how times flies
when you're blind
you don't think of
the days and years
you're missing
just the one who
stole it all away

you're the reason why I can't go home
you burned it to the ground
should've never let you light me up
I'm haunting the streets the a ghost
well, at least I know that I'm dead

oh how times flies
when you're blind
you don't think of
the days and years
you're missing
just the one who
stole it all away

I wish that I could cut you up
and use you like my favorite drug
you're the worst kind of addiction

oh how times flies
when you're blind
you don't think of
the days and years
you're missing
just the one who
stole it all away

for all the times
you left me speachless
for all the times
I left you, defeated
for all the drinks
we cheered to forever
for all the things
we said that we'd never do

Should I swallow my pride
Just to keep you in my life?
Should I speak my peace
And finally say goodbye?
But I still have these dreams
And
I live for this / I die for this
I live for this / I die for this

to all the promises
we made in arrogance
to all of the things
we lost in the process
to all the nights
we screamed and cried
for all of the things
we lived and died for

Should I swallow my pride
Just to keep you in my life?
Should I speak my peace
And finally say goodbye?
But I still have these dreams
And
I live for this / I die for this
I live for this / I die for this

can I take a step
without you following me?
can I take a breath
without choking on my words?
can I rise above this
without you lifting me up?

I'll admit, it was selfish of me
to keep you just so you couldn't
be with anyone else
knowing myself, I couldn't face
the fact that I might not be
good enough for you

But I can't stop tapping this vein
It's the only release from this feeling
Like I'm a rock, tumbling down a mountain
I'm going to hit the ground so hard

When I remember, it's the only time
that I can touch you again
I can see you, I can feel you and
it's more than I can stand
I would ****, I would do anything
not to feel this way ever again

But I can't stop tapping this vein
It's the only release from this feeling
Like I'm a rock, tumbling down a mountain
I'm going to hit the ground so hard

You're never going to catch me,
You'll always have your hands full
I can barely remember what
it's like to be with you
I wish I could let it settle,
get up and brush it off

But I can't stop tapping this vein
It's the only release from this feeling
Like I'm a rock, tumbling down a mountain
I'm going to hit the ground *so hard

I would rather you
of broken every bone
in my entire body
than that one
promise you broke
I would rather you
of ripped off my skin
than the one thing
you ripped from my hands

you were the flame
I was the cigarette
you lit me up and
I turned to ashes

I would rather you
of taken everything
that I have than
take me for granted
I would rather you
of spilt my skull
than split up our
little family

you were the flame
I was the cigarette
you lit me up and
I turned to ashes

I shouldn't have to have
this conversation with you
You already know what
you did was low
You knew it before you
picked up the phone
And called her into our home
You knew it before you
took off her clothes
And let her sleep on my pillow
You know
You know
You know
You Know You're Low
I'd give anything to hate
you for what you've done
But I've already forgiven you
Before anything happened
You knew you had me
the first time you told me a lie
And I let it slide...
You knew you had me
when you took that low blow
and I smiled and held
my tears inside...
You know
You know
You know
You Know You're Low
You shouldn't be saying
I'll never happen again
If you gave a **** this
problem wouldn't exist
You'll change
You're sorry
You love me
But it's the same
Sorry apology
You don't love me

I've got your eyes
You've got my smile
You'll be forever blind
And I'll remain silent
You stole my heart
I took a part of you
I'll be forever heartless
And you'll be incomplete

I can't hear this
Not tonight
I can't do this
No, not tonight
I can't see you
No, not tonight

I got over it
You went under
I'll always be high
And you're just low
You twisted my will
I pushed you away
I can't think straight
You're in outer space

I can't hear this
Not tonight
I can't do this
No, not tonight
I can't see you
No, not tonight

I know why
you stand so far
away from me
cause there's
someone in
between us

she can't be a ghost
cause you never let her die
all of this time
you kept hope alive
and it's killing everything
between you and I

you can't  kiss me
goodbye with her name
on the tip of your tongue
you can't see me 'cause
she's caught your eye

she can't be a ghost
cause you never let her die
all of this time
you kept hope alive
and it's killing everything
between you and I

I won't watch you
look for her in me
I don't want your heartless
body lying next  to me
I'm not sorry that I
won't be that girl

she can't be a ghost
cause you never let her die
all of this time
you kept hope alive
and it's killing everything
between you and I

If I stand and fight
Would you turn and run
I waited my whole life
Just for that one moment
You wanna take it away...
Over my dead body
we love to hate each other
we hate to love each other
I watched you rip apart
our life we built together
I watched you take my heart
and swallow it like spit
I watched you run away
I never liked the chase
I watched myself die
so you could live a lie
throw them stones
but you can't touch me
say what you want
but you'll always want me
tie me up and crucify me
but I'll always be your savoir
if you never loved her,
you could never hate her
I watched you rip apart
our life we built together
I watched you take my heart
and swallow it like spit
I watched you run away
I never liked the chase
I watched myself die
so you could live a lie

looking at you now
I don't see how
I couldn't see through
your veil of lies
I look into your
cold dead eyes
and I don't want
to love you
I want to
bury you

oh, it makes me crazy
thinking about how
you got away with ******
but I'll tell you this,
if you ever hurt her
again
just know that I know
how to keep a secret
buried

saying it aloud
it seems crazy
to me now
how I love you
in spite of the way
you brutalize me
what does it
say about me?
that I can
bury anything

oh, it makes me crazy
thinking about how
you got away with ******
but I'll tell you this,
if you ever hurt her
again
just know that I know
how to keep a secret
buried

just wanna be
without you
even for just
a moment
don't want to be
all about you
this isn't living
this is worship

what will it take
to liberate
you from
my bones?

leave me alone
leave me alone
leave me alone

I carved a great
divide that
split the world
in two halves
and everytime
you breathe
you exepell
things that
poison every
-thing

what will it take
to wash
you from
my brain?

leave me alone
leave me alone
leave me alone

Tonight, there's nothing between us
We were never in love
There were no sleepless nights
Lying awake angry at each other
No words that were fashioned
into tiny little knifes

So come over here baby
There's nothing to be afraid of
I will never hurt you again

We call, we hang up
We get drunk, slip up
We get mad, take it back

We look thru each other
Like we never touched
We move thru the night
Like we've never spent it
how can you be so sure?
This won't last forever

Tonight there's nothing between us
I walk by like a lure on a line...
I've got your attention,
You don't want to get caught up
but didn't I cut you lose last time?

So come over here baby
There's nothing to be afraid of
I will never hurt you again

We call, we hang up
We get drunk, slip up
We get mad, take it back

We look thru each other
Like we never touched
We move thru the night
Like we've never spent it
how can you be so sure?
This won't last forever

I wonder
will I ever
understand
why you took
what you took
from me?

did it ever
occur to you
that maybe
I just want
an answer
so I can
move on?
I loved you
so much
oh why?
because your
black heart
can't see in the dark
the gold you
struck to create
that spark

so tired of
feeling low that
I just want to
be high
all the time

I wish that
things were different
but they're not
should've told
you all of this
when I had
the chance
instead of
drinkin and wishin
I was dead
but I won't
waste my last
breath

I'm tired of
feeling what
you won't
come now,
who's the
broken one?

She got her heart broken
Just like a child's toy
She is less of a woman
Because of a little boy
She opened another book
But it's the same story

sacrificial lamb
offer your neck
die for their sins

we aim high
but strike so low
we say goodbye
but we never go

She had her eyes opened
Like a flower in the night
She is left hopeless
Because of your vice
She turned around
To be stabbed from behind

sacrificial lamb
offer your neck
die for their sins

we aim high
but strike so low
we say goodbye
but we never go

Have your cake
And eat mine too
I'll watch you grow
Fat and soft
While I become
Small and hard

if I went cheap shot
for cheap shot with you
who would end up
on the floor first?
If I matched you
white lie for white line
do you think that
I would die?

if you're gonna lead me on
take me somewhere fun
if you're gonna lead me on
take me away from here

If I sponsored every
mile that you run
away from me
would I run out of money?
if I broke a bone
for every broken promise
you would be just
a pile of flesh

if you're gonna lead me on
take me somewhere fun
if you're gonna lead me on
take me away from here

I'll never tell
you not to leave
you are a free woman
you are free like the wind
I'll never tell
you I love you
You should be able to feel it
You should see it in my eyes
You've got a mouth full of lies
I've got a mouth full of venom
Let's see who makes it out alive
You'll never play fair with me
You always have something up your sleeve
Just because you cheat,
doesn't mean you'll beat me
I'll never tell
you what I'm thinking
I'll never show my cards
It's not like me to be layed out
I'll never tell
you I miss you

I've faught wars in your honor
for causes which I did not believe in
I've always been your right hand
now there's nothing left to defend

now that the world is against me
where are you?
where are you?
now that I'm the last one standing
where are you?
where are you?

I've brought you back the heads
of those who challenged your crown
I have always been your weapon
now there's nothing left to defend

now that the world is against me
where are you?
where are you?
now that I'm the last one standing
where are you?
where are you?

you're like a clown
with that painted smile
you've always got
something up your sleeve
but you're tricks don't
entertain me at all

don't cry to me like
you have a conscience
don't lie to me like
I haven't already heard it

there's no morality in your manner
there's no sincerity in your banter

you're like a book
that I've already read
despite your cover,
I already know the end
and it was never a good
story to begin with

don't scan my face for
any signs of forgiveness
don't hold yourself like
you've got an ounce of respect

there's no justice in your retribution
there's no faith in your communion

don't speak to me like
we never knew each other
don't look at me like
I don't know what you're thinking

so you go
you've seen
the light
and I know
the darkness
will fill all
of the holes
and I dwell
between the
flash of light
and the girls
that bite
I think hell
is the sun
burning away
that sweet night
I don't ever
ever ever
want to see
the light
you are faceless
you are vapor
traceless
disappearing
I breathe you in
but something
else comes out
poisonous
invisible

no, I won't
answer the phone
no, I'm not
gonna have this fight
but I...
wanna rip out your heart
show you how black it is
I wanna call you out
and leave you stranded

if you want to make me jealous
you're gonna have to do better
better than her

no, I won't
fall for your charms
no, I'm not
the girl you left behind
but I...
wanna spit in your face
when you say you miss me
I wanna turn my back
when you really need me

if you want to make me jealous
you're gonna have to do better
better than her

baby
you can do
better than her!

I thought I had a fortune
I wrapped my arms around it
but it crumbled like the dust
it always was
if I keep digging
if I keep digging
will I find something?
I keep digging
I keep on digging
my own grave
I thought I had an empire
I stood before countless faces
but they all were blind like the mice
that they were
if I fall asleep
if I fall asleep
will I wake in a dream?
if I keep telling myself
if I keep telling myself
will it become true?

I look down at my hands
try to feel again
what was once so heavy in them
but it's long gone
and the worst thing ever
watching the one
who loves you pretend
to love someone else
I don't dream anymore
it's too dangerous
to wake up with
the thought of us

if I don't ever listen
why are you still talking?
if you're gonna leave me
why aren't you walking?

look me in the eyes
and tell me that
I won't cry because I
know you're lying
I couldn't take another hit
never thought that
I'd ever raise my fist to you
we've crossed these lines
there's no going back
we're both in dangerous territory
which one will make it out?

if I don't deserve better
why did you fall apart in my arms?
if we're meant to be together
why did I have to become someone else?

all these questions...
we already know the answers.

if my words escape me
like vapors
my thoughts betray me
like lovers

let the night get the
best of me
let tomorrow get the
rest of me

I want to feel the night
in my hair
I want to feel nothing
but your hands
whoever you are

if my intentions twist
like a road
my actions commit
me to follow

let the memory fade
like the sun
let the night take me
like a stranger

I want to feel the night
in my hair
I want to feel nothing
but your hands
whoever you are
whoever you are
whoever you are

you are a
crisp white
tee shirt
I want to
hang you
in my closet
and only
take you out
to show
my friends
how good
you look on me
in a manner
of course
in which
I don't seem
to care
maybe I'll
throw you
on the floor
when I meet
some random
girl at a bar
you never know
you never know
until you're
lying there
watching them
so before
you treat me
like an object
remember
how bright
you are
how nice
you are
to me
and any day
you could fade
and I could
give you away.

My heart is beating
out of my chest
Try to speak but
I can't catch my breath
Oh, how I live for this

My eyes are trying to
hold back bricks of tears
Try to regain myself
But I can't get a grip
Oh, how I live for this

My dreams are memories
I can't escape to my secret place
My memories are regrets
I can't see the light in any of this

Was the time of our lives
when we first met?
Was that the best
we're ever going to get?

My head is spinning
like a broken record
try to stop it but
It just keep going round and round
Oh, how I live for this

My body shaking
like a leaf in a storm
I try to hold on
But you keep blowing me away

My dreams are memories
I can't escape to my secret place
My memories are regrets
I can't see the light in any of this

Was the time of our lives
when we first met?
Was that the best
we're ever going to get?

I love you so much
that I could never
take anything from you
I won't ******* you
so you can't run away
I won't cover your mouth
so you can't lie to me
I won't tie your hands
so they can't betray me

live it up
live it up
while you can
one day
I'll be gone
and she won't
let you get away
with ******

I love you so much
that I could never
let you be punished
for your crimes
I won't turn against you
not even to save myself
I won't put you in a cage
though you're a monster

live it up
live it up
while you can
one day
I'll be gone
and she won't
let you get away
with ******
