synapses fire crimson is gold garland chemistry sets up the lye hand me your keys let me drive you home dire need for validation no one gives a care about your progression listen to your heartbeat in my lungs feet hit the floor as I'm running to my death overwelming panic, sweat it out at home she didnt lie when she said watch out dystopian lies will never carry us to our front door but you know how to cope (supposedly) girl i'd drag you by the hair to the hearse if you dont wanna live here than leave im spent of tears for those whom i loved i ran out of love when i heard your hatred wasn't pure enough slammed to the floor by the devils hammer she didnt know better i guess dealers choice buy me any drink you like cuz id rather win with the sinners than die alone payback my love is an arrogant ******* i pray for your bones & soul my wholesome as you strike the match, just another effigy i thought being drunk & naked would be enough change my thoughts, let's paint the town red alcohol hitting every nerve tonight i wanna taste your pain & place it inside me lunar ascension in the city as i wear my pain like a tattoo my sunglasses darken the shades of night trunk full of bottles so i dont have to explain to anyone feel like dirt & the pain never goes away im at my darkest with the sweetest smile sin is an itch i scratch over and over again am i forlorn or just slowly dying doesn't my heart arrest its beating precision its harder outside the bubble of safety silence all your quiet riddles baby im getting off this turbulent ride cant get off, can only cry like an infant **** this misery and give me sanctuary
