Splinter my tongue Inspired by serpents Cutting teeth on wicked prayers Sharpened on limestone caskets I try too hard to deceive Where and when will it all end Diamonds, roses, words These things are promised Homes, spirits, and bones These things are broken Broken I've been here all along Laying roses on your grave Roses on your grave We die too quickly This telethon is over Fireworks in the clear blue sky Fireworks in the clear blue sky Fireworks in the clear blue sky

Black And Blue And Broken Bones For Two
Splinter my tongue Inspired by serpents Cutting teeth on wicked prayers Sharpened on limestone caskets I try too hard to deceive Where and when will it all end Diamonds, roses, words These things are promised Homes, spirits, and bones These things are broken Broken I've been here all along Laying roses on your grave Roses on your grave We die too quickly This telethon is over Fireworks in the clear blue sky Fireworks in the clear blue sky Fireworks in the clear blue sky
