It's just passed midnight and I'm staring holes through the back of your head
because under nightfall everything seems a little more nostalgic
so here goes nothing as I throw up all these words all over you
new romance is becoming saturated in our eyes
oh how cliche it is to sing about the stars
when they burnt out about ten years ago
its just passed midnight and she's laughing at every word that I said
another frightful moment and
I need a mayday when I'm burning down
so much for spilling out my guts
because you never even gave a damn
selfish agenda blaming everything on me
oh how cliche it is to sing about the stars
when they burnt out about ten years ago
won't toss and turn tonight
we ride out fast
we'll burn the houses
and we'll torch the souls until they get it right
this letter is scarlet because it's addressed to you
We are the leaders and the preachers
teaching you what is right from wrong.
And even if a hint of nonsense has made us clearly conscious,
We'll be the first ones to act, be the first ones to act in.
Tick-tock on the clock and a knock at the...
Oh oh oh - look at what we've all tried not to become:
another fabricated self-portrait.
Oh oh no - take another glance and remember we're the ones
Setting you up to take our fall.
You are the so-called weak and reckless.
Waiting for the next big explosion,
No matter if it's wrong or right.
If we let you have this,
you'll be the first to destroy, be the first to destroy it.
Tick-tock on the clock and a knock at the...
Oh oh oh - look at what we've all tried not to become:
another fabricated self-portrait.
Oh oh no - take another glance and remember we're the ones
Setting you up to take our fall.
The simple ways we roll our eyes
are exactly how we disguise our secrets.
You know you need this.
The simple ways we roll our eyes

You know you need this.
Tick-tock on the clock and a knock at the...

that boy smiles just like hollywood
that girl acts interested
here I am dressed to massacre
all alone in the corner of a crowded room
lights camera wait
no ones getting any action
take a sip while no ones looking
just to try to ease the tension
director cut to my dying slowly
on the floor in the corner of a crowded room
I'll ask you a question
sharp and witty with my tongue
I'll do whatever I have to
till I have my way with you
look into my mirror (you could close the eyes, you could close the eyes. I'm everything you want)
and tell me what you see (you could pass a glance, you could pass a glance. I'm everything you want)
a hole in my chest by the face in the reflection of me
slit slash I'm making a gash on your ego
cause I'm far too good for you
is this the liquor talking?
lights camera wait
no ones getting any action
take a sip while no ones looking
just to try to ease the tension
director cut to my dying slowly
on the floor in the corner of a crowded room
I'll ask you a question
sharp and witty with my tongue
no need for hands with you
I'll undress you with my eyes
look into my mirror (you could close the eyes, you could close the eyes. I'm everything you want)
and tell me what you see (you could pass a glance, you could pass a glance. I'm everything you want)
a hole in my chest by the face in the reflection of me
you will never be caught seen with me
cause I'd be caught dead before I was seen with you
brace yourself and watch your back
it's time I bury this
hatchet so deep inside your chest
you'll wish you never asked for it
brace yourself and watch your back
it's time I bury this
hatchet so deep inside your chest
you'll wish you never asked for it
when you tell me that everything was right
were you conscious of your subconscious on that night
so,look into my mirror (I'm everything you want and need)
and tell me what you see (I'm everything you want and need)
a hole in my chest by the face in the reflection of me
all I need is you on me
Tried to find both my life and my love
Took the time to write down all my thoughts
Found that I need to let go of you (Let go of you)
All of my worst insecurities
'Cause I've got the tendencies
Of dancing away at anything alarming
And so...
Can you, will you
At least attempt to stay now
Just turn around
I'll make you break through
Never betray you
And now I know that I
Can't go back on all those promises I shredded but
Can you, will you
At least attempt to stay now
Wonder why, why its taking so long
To step back and admit all my wrongs
Always gave everything you had to me (Everything to me)
Tell me why I continue abusing
My insecurities have taken away
What I consider charming
And so...
Can you, will you
At least attempt to stay now
Just turn around
I'll make you break through
Never betray you
And now I know that I
Can't go back on all those promises I shredded but
Can you, will you
At least attempt to stay now
Whoa, I'll never tell you why I do those things I do
Whoa, Oh please just show me some understanding, baby
Whoa, Just trust my soul that I, I'm trying, God I'm trying
Oh, To let you know that I, I've tried to tell you that...
My insecurities have taken away
What I consider charming
and so...
Can you, will you
At least attempt to stay now
Just turn around
I'll make you break through
Never betray you
And now I know that I
Can't go back on all those promises I shredded but
Can you, will you
At least attempt to stay now
Go around and tell all the neighbors, go around and tell everyone
Theres a storm thats coming for her, this time the rain will make her fall in love
This girls so condescending mysterious but beautiful
So go around and tell all the neighbors I'm gonna grab her heart and won't let go

Hey make it rain
Flood the streets if only for today
Hey make it rain
I need you I want you oh
I just can't help it
Baby all we got tonight
Hey make it rain
Yeah
Her favorite place to dance is outside
Especially when the stars are bright
So thats exactly where I'm headed
She's beautiful under night skies
I've been waiting for this weather
Come rain, come shine, shes mine
Go around and tell all the neighbors
The storm is coming better get inside
I've never wanted you so much as I do right now
I can't believe this is happening to me
Hey make it rain
Flood the streets if only for today
Hey make it rain
I need you I want you oh

You will be loving me till the morning
Hey make it rain
Flood the streets if only for today
Hey make it rain
I need you I want you oh
I just can't help it
Baby all we got tonight
Hey make it rain
All I want is to be with you
All I want is to be with you
Show your cards, show me what you got
We'll break these poker faces, like it or not
Everyone's in my head
But I want you in my bed
I never wanna go a day without you
I could never go a day
Come closer to me baby
I've got everything you need
To feed your hunger pains for tonight
Warm me up beneath the sheets babe
I've heard all about how you can save,
I don't wanna go a day with out you
Warm me up beneath the sheets babe
I've heard all about how you can save,
I don't wanna go a day without you.
Innocence meet jealousy.
Isn't she stunning?
She'll make you smile so hard inside
Make you wish you could bring back those nights
Take a walk with me through my head
I'll show you where I rest
All those nights when I'm without you
Draw a new breath; I swear I'll show you
Come closer to me baby
I've got everything you need
To feed your hunger pains for tonight
Warm me up beneath the sheets babe
I've heard all about how you can save,
I don't wanna go a day with out you
Warm me up beneath the sheets babe
I've heard all about how you can save,
I don't wanna go a day without you
Come closer to me baby
I've got everything you need
To feed your hunger pains for tonight
This can all be a reality
If you just say you'll stay with me
I'll make sure everything is done right
[Chorus]
Left alone, your voice once gave me the comfort to continue.
2,000 miles, I'm hopeless and broken
You're gutless and hopin' to run into hope
And this isn't getting any easier
They won't understand it
What you've hidden from them,
And this isn't getting any easier.
So is this what you wanted?
Too bad, it's what you got.
So should this be my farewell?
Come on, you know me too well.
So is this what you wanted?
Too bad, it's what you got.
So should this be my farewell?
Come on, you know me too well.
Once again, your lies still give me the heartache to continue.
1000 miles, you're coming closer
It's been so long I can hardly remember
This is getting so much easier
They won't understand it,
What you've hidden from them
And this is getting so much easier
So is this what you wanted?
Too bad, it's what you got.
So should this be my farewell?
Come on, you know me too well.
So is this what you wanted?
Too bad, it's what you got.
So should this be my farewell?
Come on, you know me too well.
Once again, your lies still give me the heartache to continue.
So is this what you wanted?
Too bad, it's what you got.
So should this be my farewell?
Come on, you know me too well.
So is this what you wanted?
Too bad, it's what you got.
So should this be my farewell?
Come on, you know me too well.
when the summer finally burns your insides
we'll know you put the lies in allies
when the summer finally says its time to see
we'll see the blueprints of a broken heart
no matter what your apology confesses I still know
you read me like a soliloquy from my head down to my toes
sometimes apologies don't mean a thing
like four in the morning when you're in bed sleeping
you don't need a phone conversation to wake you up to bring you down
cause when it's over we both know
so here we are again
I'll take your fragile hand and say
a million of the ugliest lies that allies could ever tell
you can't express yourself and you've tried 10,000 times
exponentially meaningless and even less with time
so this is what I want from you
a list of everything you'd try to make things worse
and make things hard
so this is where we draw the line
standing at the great divide
plotting revenge
take me off this
in your sleep you cry my name
in your sleep you choke your sheets
one more time
one more slit
your tongue keeps moving like a mute
tied in knots by your deceit
one more time
one more slit
so sleep with one eye open tonight
cause this will be your final resting place
your hands on one another and pray that you make it out alive
I've been sneaking glances and writing lines about you.
What you think you can take back are the things that are going to haunt you.
This time won't be the last time
That I'm coming straight for your heart,
You know how I move.
And if I must say, I know that I'm worth...
More than you thought.
You've never compromised without rolling your...
I know you've completely torn apart the fact that we could be.
I'm on the search, 2 floors high.
I see the girl that I've been chasing after.
Wishin' her eyes would just reach mine.
Please girl, you know exactly who I'm after.
I can't begin to explain this infatuation that I've grown with you
And all that has to do with every moment that I'm here and you're not.
More than you thought.
You've never compromised without rolling your...
I know you've completely torn apart the fact that we could be.
I'm on the search, 2 floors high.
I see the girl that I've been chasing after.
Wishin' her eyes would just reach mine.
Please girl, you know exactly who I'm after.
And I thought that I would make it,
But you escaped it.
And you swore that you would take this somewhere, somewhere.
Now I'm lost and you're just fakin' with the way you played this.
The escape game never seemed so cruel when...
I'm on the search, 2 floors high.
I see the girl that I've been chasing after.
Wishin' her eyes would just reach mine.
Please girl, you know exactly who I'm after.
[x2]
My hands and hair smell of smoke
My tongue of old, black lust and jokes
Oh no
That have been passed through liars
Lips on to this old, weathered parchment
That has been torn to shreds
That had stated
I was there for everything
That you needed me to, to hold on
I know I didn't say enough
But I know you can't go forcing love
I know I shouldn't call you up
'Cause I'd look so desperate for your love
Got caught on calloused heels
Barefoot, undressed, and such a mess
Unprepared for the next event
You said you had to go
What happened to the boy you used to know?
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
But I stated
I was there for everything
That you needed me for
Just hold on
Sick of how I tip-toe through problems
Looking for a way out
And around them
I know I didn't say enough
But I know you can't go forcing love
I know I shouldn't call you up
'Cause I'd look so desperate for your love
I broke someone's heart
Too bad that it happened to be my own
Come home
I can promise a better man
We can push things
Start, start fresh, introduce ourselves again
And mend all these aching battle scars
I know I didn't say enough
But who says you can't go forcing love?
I know I didn't say enough
But who says you can't go forcing love?
I know I shouldn't call you up
'Cause I'd look so desperate for your love
Chapter 1 takes place on empty canvases
And idle hands are silencing the oxygen.
The clock keeps the beat,
The sweat turns to beads,
And the salt burns me alive,
But my tears have all run dry.
I haven't slept in days.
The devil's just like cocaine,
Gradually constant and permanently pain.
Stop and breathe.
It was just an awful dream.
A nightmare. A night scare.
Nothing to worry
Stop and breathe.
It was just an awful dream.
A nightmare. A night scare.
Nothing to worry about.
Chapter 3, the things that lawyers never tell.
Chinese finger trap,
Arms tied behind your back,
And you wish that we'd lend a hand,
But that wasn't in the contract.
This is your fascination, inflammable exaggeration.
Signature signed in blood, but it's artwork that we love.
I haven't slept in days.
The devil's just like cocaine,
Gradually constant and permanently pain.
Stop and breathe.
It was just an awful dream.
A nightmare. A night scare.
Nothing to worry
Stop and breathe.
It was just an awful dream.
A nightmare. A night scare.
Nothing to worry about.
Wrap your hands around this pen
I'll show you what it is to live.
[x4]
Stop and breathe.
It was just an awful dream.
A nightmare. A night scare.
Nothing to worry
Stop and breathe.
It was just an awful dream.
A nightmare. A night scare.
Nothing to worry about.
Am I the one you see in your so-called nightmares?
Wake up and dance, dance to the beat of the drama.
Since beggars can't be choosers, I'll play the victim while you play the fool.
This one goes out on, this one goes out on popular demand.
So hit me back, here's another track you can count on losing.
So take that, here's our plan of attack so count on bruising.
We are the ones you've named the, the unaccepted.
Wake up and dance, dance to the beat of the drama.
Since liars can be bruisers, you'll play the victim while we play the fool.
Tonight this goes out on the shelves because of popular demand.
So hit me back, here's another track you can count on losing.
So take that, here's our plan of attack so count on bruising.
[x5]
What you, what you see is something you can't distinguish,
Something you know that you love.
What you, what you need is something she'll never be.
I think it's time to let you go.
Better ask the Captain.
Do it now.
Do it before we drown.
It's too late, it's too late
I think the tide has come to wash you out,
Wash you away from here.
[x2]
Here comes the storm, it's moving in and swallowing
Like the bottom half of an hour glass
And we're running out of space.
Better ask the Captain.
Do it now.
Do it before we drown.
It's too late, it's too late
I think the tide has come to wash you out,
Wash you away from here.
[x2]
Empty ocean is all we see,
The north star is all we need.
This time is probably right for everyone to say their goodbyes.
"May day! May day!" she said to me,
However it's too late
Captain, oh Captain, we've lost our direction.
It's too late
It's too late
It's too late.
It's too late, it's too late
I think the tide has come to wash you out,
Wash you away from here.
[x2]
you guard your laughter
just like the president and
your weeks are numbered
just like an element and
it's not so much what you say
it's mostly how your saying it
you make me melt like kerosene on candle wax
in flames and on your porch
she's knocking on your door
and she won't leave until your ash is on the floor
and all your pictures
couldn't keep me warm
if I burned them
I'm bleeding bloody coughs
from the fire in my lungs
I left you in my memories
so if the train comes
lay down on the tracks
and forget me
and how we used to kiss
I can't stand the person that you've grown to be
you guard your laughter
just like the president and
your weeks are numbered
just like an element and
it's not so much what you say
it's mostly how your saying it
you make me melt like kerosene on candle wax
in flames and on your porch
she's knocking on your door
and she won't leave until your ash is on the floor
and all your pictures
couldn't keep me warm
if I burned them
I'm bleeding bloody coughs
from the fire in my lungs
I left you in my memories
so if the train comes
lay down on the tracks
and forget me
and how we used to kiss
I can't stand the person that you've grown to be
(so this is me, testing you. staring through the colors of the cornea. concentrating until no color remains. your life, your mind becomes black and white. show me your inbalance. show me your true self. all thought is a chemical reaction. it's all in your head. it's all in your head)
(the bathroom mirror and lipstick, the syllables run down without meaning, and you have the guts to call yourself intellectual)
after this you will be in more pain than you could ever imagine
just the two of us left bleeding sadly after
and to think you said we had nothing in common
Come with me if you want to see anything worth while, my child
I'll show you anything and everything
Go to heaven for the weather
But to hell to sell your soul
I'll show you where mine went so long ago
Teach you everything you need to know
The way to love and feel it in your bones
Grab the sheets and make her toes tremble
Her lips respond
She wants you, Oh!
The more you listen to me, you'll see
Everything that you need to be, for me
I'll show you all that you need, to be
The greatest lover to come after me
Oh, I can show if you want to know exactly how to say her name
To make her scream and shout, but not from pain
Ecstasy is all that she'll feel when you kiss her lightly
It's frightening
There is no room for sparks, show her lightening
Teach you everything you need to know
The way to love and feel it in your bones
Grab the sheets and make her toes tremble
Her lips respond
She wants you, Oh!
The more you listen to me, you'll see
Everything that you need to be, for me
I'll show you all that you need, to be
The greatest lover to come after me
I can't wait to see inside
See exactly what your made of (made of)
I can see right through your eyes
See exactly where you came from (came from)
I'll take you out around the town
I will break you down (I will break you down)
I'll leave you high and dry, girl
I'll make your body cry, girl
I'll make your body
Make your body
Make your body cry out!
Teach you everything you need to know
The way to love and feel it in your bones
Grab the sheets and make her toes tremble
Her lips respond
She wants you, Oh!
Come on girl and take a ride with me
Take your time and lose your need for speed
I'll take it slow and make you lose control
Your lips respond
I want you, Oh!
The more you listen to me, you'll see
Everything that you need to be, for me
I'll show you all that you need, to be
The greatest lover to come after me
[x2]
The crimes I've committed aren't heard by any judge
And there are only two in this courtroom and I must confess.
What's done is done and I'm not the type that can't be conned into being convinced.
We both know this.
I should be ashamed of this, I'm not,
'Cause I have tasted grapes.
This smile, don't look.
It's my bait, my words, the hook.
[x2]
These acts of immorality are the only things keeping me quiet
Why can't you just accept the fact that I'm only as loyal as my options?
I can't believe that you would ever trust me.
I should be ashamed of this, I'm not,
'Cause I have tasted grapes.
This smile, don't look.
It's my bait, my words, the hook.
[x2]
You could call me a rolling stone
'cause I'm always on the road
Every night I wonder if you're there alone.
I should be ashamed of this, I'm not,
'Cause I have tasted grapes.
This smile, don't look.
It's my bait, my words, the hook.
[x2]
I should be ashamed of this, I'm not,
'Cause I have tasted grapes.
This smile, don't look.
It's my bait, my words, the hook.
[x2]
Tonight I finally get the chance
To show you what I'm feeling
So now I'm taking out the time
To know you and your latest trends
Don't even get me started
On the topic of lovers eyes
Their attempts are so off-target
They don't know what is it to try
Baby, save me
Tell me that you wanna take me
To the place where we kissed the sky
Rain by day, shoot stars by night
[x2]
Now that we made it up into the sky
I've been wondering why
Why can't we keep away from everything
Stay high, just you and I
I'll make sure everything is all right
Sit tight
Don't you say a word
See the earth turn
Take a breath and stare like you
Have never, ever seen the world
Don't even get me started
On the topic of lovers eyes
Their attempts are so off-target
They don't know what is it to try
Baby, save me
Tell me that you wanna take me
To the place where we kissed the sky
Rain by day, shoot stars by night
[x2]
Baby, tell me what you want
What you need
Everything you've never seen
But you dreamed of a place out of space
We'll erase and be free in a scene
To a world that's been turned all around, upside-down
Never knowing what's around
Every corner of our horrible story
I'm glad we both found the ground
Safe and sound
Don't even get me started
On the topic of lovers eyes
Their attempts are so off-target
They don't know what is it to try
Baby, save me
Tell me that you wanna take me
To the place where we kissed the sky
Rain by day, shoot stars by night
[x2]
I was once a young boy
Never fled too far from home
Now I've lost my name
And misplaced my home
I retreat back to places
Where I am someone they love
Bright lights serving justice up from above
Everybody thinks they know my name
And where I've been
I've got news for you that'll turn your head
I'm not exactly who you think that I've been all along
Shut your fuckin' mouth and sing my song
I always knew I would be the one
To make you believe
(To make you believe)
In sleeping in castles with no guards
But all the pleasure it brings me
I flee from situations
When I know that I've done wrong
But face to face with faith
He strings me along
I'll shoot for the moon
So long as you raise your arms too
My marksmanship is perfect
My aim is true
Hitting targets
Marked their rage all over mother's glow
Smoking out the world atop my throne
I take the names of victims
That I've gunned down on my own
I please with love and ease
So I aim for gold
I always knew I would be the one
To make you believe
(To make you believe)
In sleeping in castles with no guards
But all the pleasure it brings me
I always knew I would be the one
To make you believe
In sleeping in castles with no guards
But all the pleasure it brings me [x2]
I was once a young boy
Never fled too far from home
Now I've lost my name
And I'm all alone
my lips were writing checks my heart couldn't cash
cause it was empty with nothing but your memories
your perfect smile and innocent eyes
I'm sorry that you feel this way
I'm sorry for taking up space
I'm sorry that you'll never love again
sorry for being sorry all the time
don't want the agony back
I never lied when I said
that I loved you
and that I still do
put the 12th stitch inside of my chest
and just say goodnight
just say goodbye
even a spider would get caught up in this web
of all the lies that you spun on me everyday
you'll never see the pain that you've caused
I'm sorry that you feel this way
I'm sorry for taking up space
I'm sorry that you'll never love again
sorry for being sorry all the time
if I could I'd break into your house
and steal all of your clocks
just to take back all the time you stole from me
I'd do I'd do anything
I'd do I'd do anything for you
(scan the skyline and horizon this our final showdown this is our permanent request)
I'm looking for love in all the wrong places
falling for the wrong faces
I'd do I'd do anything
I'd do I'd do anything for you
(final search focus the spotlight this is our fashion hour this is a lost cause)
I'm looking for love in all the wrong places
falling for the wrong faces
Can someone please just shake the lies out of me?
It seems that every word I say don't mean a thing
I've tried so hard reel you closer to freedom
With every cast I just exhaust all my options
Tonight, tonight we are going to make all the headlines
It's so damn hard to push my pride to the side
Take back everything I said
No that I'm never coming home again
I know thats it's for the best
Come back when I know I've been
Washed clean, all but emptiness
With these words I'm leaving less
I feel I'm constantly restricted by shackles
This so-called ball and chain is all I've ever known
I've climbed some mountains I thought I'd never tackle
They gave me sense of hope, and most of all, a sense of home
Tonight, tonight we are gonna make all the headlines
I've tried for nights to write a new beginning, I've failed every time
Take back everything I said
No that I'm never coming home again
I know thats it's for the best
Come back when I know I've been
Washed clean, all but emptiness
With these words I'm leaving less
Oh girl, you know
Everywhere I want to go
I won't stop, I can't stop
'Til I get just the one I want
[x2]
Tonight, tonight we are gonna make all the headlines
Oh it's so damn hard...
Take back everything I said
No that I'm never coming home again
I know thats it's for the best
Come back when I know I've been
Washed clean, all but emptiness
With these words I'm leaving less
Smother your breath with cheap champagne
The stewardess will bring me two of the same
These sort of things project through my microphone
Projecting love into your stereo
I won't go unheard or unknown
Carry me like jet planes crossing the sea
You fly so high that my eyes can hardly see you
Lock on to me
And cabin pressure's high from body heat
This chemistry will keep us glued to our seats
It's got this boy shaking in both of his knees
A loss of breath from extreme altitude
Of the signals that you're sending
Help me follow you
I won't go unheard or unknown
Carry me like jet planes crossing the sea
You fly so high that my eyes can hardly see you
Lock on to me
And cabin pressure's high from body heat
Carry me like jet planes crossing the sea
You fly so high that my eyes can hardly see you
Lock on to me
Mayday, mayday
We're going down in flames
Maybe, maybe
This is destiny
Repeat, repeat
Just what you want from me
I can make tonight the best of your life
Oh, without a fight
Carry me like jet planes crossing the sea
You fly so high that my eyes can hardly see you
Lock on to me
And cabin pressure's high from body heat
Carry me like jet planes crossing the sea
You fly so high that my eyes can hardly see you
Lock on to me
Mayday, mayday
We're going down in flames
Maybe, maybe
This is destiny, yeah
Don't be so hard on yourself
The name of the game is humiliation,
And thanks for your admiration.
I never thought I'd say this:
The way that we play has such confrontation:
And guilt by association.
"Hold me, hold me..."
"If I were to..."
"I can't, can't, I swear I can't let you."
"It's all in your hands but I'll do what I can,
So you can do what you have to."
[x2]
Don't think too hard about it,
You never thought I'd get this far,
Would get this far without you.
Relax, stand back and watch it happen.
I'll wave my goodbyes into the night and say
"Hold me, hold me..."
"If I were to..."
"I can't, can't, I swear I can't let you."
"It's all in your hands but I'll do what I can,
So you can do what you have to."
[x2]
Say you'll never, ever. Say you'll never, ever.
Say you'll never let me go.
Say you'll never, ever. Say you'll never, ever.
Say you'll never tell a soul.
[x2]
"Hold me, hold me..."
"If I were to..."
"I can't, can't, I swear I can't let you."
"It's all in your hands but I'll do what I can,
So you can do what you have to."

sticks and stones
may break your bones but his words can't hurt you anymore
but it never bothered him before when he used to make the room spin round
he is responsible for every headache that you get
he is the cut inside your mouth that never heals
he is the rope that ties you down
he is the one that keeps you here
he is the thorn in your side
he is the romance in your life
your eyes look like the blue skies
that turn to gray
tears swell up round your nose and
blood on your shirt
tell my why you think that it's ok
it's not alright
to let him treat you this way
breathe please swallow and digest
that snake bit off more than he can chew
does this sound familiar
does this sound like you
but you are far too gracious
to waste your life with him
the sparkle in your eyes
becomes the darkness in the night
I am the knife that cuts you free
I am the key that lets you out
I am the gauze that heals your wounds
and I pray this pen won't fail me now
your eyes look like the blue skies
that turn to gray
tears swell up round your nose and
blood on your shirt
tell my why you think that it's ok
it's not alright
to let him treat you this way
breathe deep close your eyes self-esteem runs low
whisper something in my ears that I don't know
just to write this letter saying nothings alright
you'll get through my darling you'll get through tonight
making snow angels in broken glass
hope that he falls into a heart attack
to hell with you I'm done with feeling sorry
to hell with yourself she's had enough
to hell with yourself
it's over and over
tomorrow will let you go
it's over and over
tomorrow will bring you hope
Who is it tonight, Doctor Jekyll or Mr. Hyde?
The bookshelf spins,
when I pull the Websters from the third row,
second from the right,
and this is where the chemicals grow,
this is where reactions flow,
the dictionary chemical cookbook was meant to hook you into me.
Would you please take off your lab coat, kiss me as we roll through every chemical.
Would you please put on your dance shoes? 'Cause I'm sick of dancin' alone.
Who is it tonight, Doctor Jekyll or Mr. Hyde?
Two hints lust, then I mix some charm with a dash of wits.
Add some good looks and then, close the door and dim the lights.
(This will finally be the night)
where the dictionary chemical cookbook will finally hook you into me.
Would you please take off your lab coat, kiss me as we roll through every chemical.
Would you please put on your dance shoes? 'Cause I'm sick of dancin' alone.
Stolen everything you worked for,
love was lost but better to remember,
left side, left side suicide.
Please take off your lab coat and kiss me as we roll,
please put on your dance shoes and join me in this waltz.
Would you please take off your lab coat, kiss me as we roll through every chemical.
Would you please put on your dance shoes? 'Cause I'm sick of dancin' alone.
Please take off your lab coat, kiss me as we roll,
please put on your dance shoes 'cause I'm sick of dancin' alone.
For so long
I have been attacked by your words
And never holding back
Now you're scared
Of where I have been
I was never alone
And I won't ever let this go
This is the path, the life I chose
My livelihood resides on my back
I'll keep my legs as strong as I can
I've been misguided by you
I've been mistreated, too
If you think I'm gonna take it, no [x2]
Thought you had me
Tied up by a string
On the side
Something I've been wanting
Said you're leaving
But to my defense
I was never alone
And I won't ever let this go
This is the path, the life I chose
My livelihood resides on my back
I'll keep my legs as strong as I can
I've been misguided by you
I've been mistreated, too
If you think I'm gonna take it, no [x2]
Say you want more
But it's all I got
I wanna make sure
That you know I won't stop
You thought you had me, baby
You thought you had me, baby
Say you want more
But it's all I got
I wanna make sure
That you know I won't stop
You thought you had me, baby
You never had me, baby
I've been misguided by you
I've been mistreated, too
If you think I'm gonna take it, no [x2]
