This is a lot like sleeping with alluring shotguns, and a lot like kissing fingers crossed.
Did doing what you did make you feel important?
Or was it just another worthwhile reason to spread your legs.
I think I'm in love with you baby. Or at least I love to think so?
It's on nights like these that heads will roll, and we will feel. Feelings like we've never felt before.
Tonight will signify everything I've eradicated, I hope to leave you shaking.
So I'll face this apathetic crowd. I'm unarmed, but I'm ready to fire. Yeah!
I've loaded up on ambition, and I've got myself a good/pure soul.
It's simply just the sex that's killing me. You're killing me.
Can't you see it? Coward, I won't lie when I say. I've always found you weak.
And tonight,
This will mean nothing.
It won't matter for we were never prepared for what life had planned for us.
We were so innocent,
We never expected this.
For you and I are passed our dancing days,
Our sinful eyes decorate the sky with flames.
This will end soon.
Just hold on tight,
It will be alright.
So dance your fucking heart out.
So we'll lock the doors,
And I'll put on the radio,
It still won't drown their screams.
The people and places we once loved are all dead.
Maybe if we pray,
We'll make it through this night with a kiss from a righteous angel that fell from the sky.
Eyes,
Look your last.
Arms,
Take your last embrace of me.
It will be hard to sleep tonight.
This will end.
Soon.
Pretty you are, enough to be in magazines,
But I know and you know, you're worth more than
that to me.
But my desire to kiss you, completely diminished,
Due to the fact that your lips on my lips
Just might as well be your foot on my throat,
Holding back the hidden "I love you"'s
In all the songs that I've ever wrote.
And his swells have come to suck you in
And steal you away from me yet again.
To drown everything important
To assure you forgot about me.
To remain embraced by something stronger than
me, warmer than me, better than me
More suitable to best accommodate your needs.
At the moment he touches your face, caresses your
body, just to feel
I will break at the knees, and I will combust
I will.
His swells have come to suck you in
And steal you away from me yet again.
To drown everything important
To assure you forgot about me.
So it won't hurt so bad to see you love again.
So it won't hurt so bad to watch as you forget about
This is not where we're supposed to be.
Causing ears to bleed,
And hearts to ache,
Is this us improving?
Apparently my lips.
Apparently my lips are stale.
Cast me into the sky,
Just as you've done with everything you've ever loved.
Please,
Can we meet at the end of it all?
I'll bring the wine,
You bring the heartache.
Hand-in-hand we'll drown.
This must be love,
Because you're still not dead to me.
Just shut up and kiss me.
And we're both still standing.
Cast me into the sky.
Just dead to me.
I stand here, helpless, star struck, by the starlet at the masquerade. Spare me the dramatics
I get where I am and where I'm heading.
But you see I've realized my wrongs, I know I can't take them back.
But I'll spend eternity taking every chance I get.
I am doomed and gloom has it's harrowing arms wrapped around her.
Just listen to the words, in every love song...
They're all about us, every single word. Every single lie. All great romances start with you and I.
I am jealousy's advocate, and for that I have nothing.
I am the man who invented the excuse, woe, me.
Just listen to the words, in every love song...
They're all about us, every single word. Every single lie. All great romances start with you and I.
Can I say a word without you interrupting me? Or do I not have a choice?
To take your hand, is to let go of all else.
The cold only served me keeping you warm;
Roaming your body like a serpent of some form.
Now I ain't got nothing pumping through my veins but gasoline.
Could you ever love a machine?
It's all about driving the demons in me out.
It's hard to be sincere when I'm lodged in the jaws of a shark.
It's constantly reminding me that I like you better in the dark.
If you're screaming at the drain for days...
...you know its love.
And if god were a villain, he would be me.
I am a martyr without belief in anything
So what does that make me?
If cowardice ranks amongst royalty then crown me king.
I am that of desperate,
I am that of cancerous and I'm loving this.
I've been screaming at the drain for days,
My stomach and I are parting ways...
Brace yourselves, everyone! We've got a whore on our hands.
Fasten your seat belts. Grab your loved ones, do anything you can.
It's impressive how you've managed to destroy my world again.
But this time baby, I know how it ends.
And it's on love you that I'm hellbent.
I'll play the lover, you play the liar and we'll lie like lovers do.
How much longer must I remain convinced that I'd die without you.
Rest-assured last time I checked I had it all under control.
I may be drunk and my judgement may be fucked but I've been blessed with good looks.
God said true true love would save me, somehow.
I've got just one questions, where's my savior now? Follow to where your inner thighs desire.
Wake UP!
This day might pass you
Leaving you in ashes
Hold this piece of glass
To my chest
I'll lean on it for you
Who knew that we'd come this far
Cleanse yourself of this residue
Cleanse yourself of this residue
That is me
Pray as long as you kiss me
While you kill me
I don't care
Take back all your words
Because I can't breathe
On my own
This is pathetic at it's best
These rooms they wont envy
"I'm sorry I never meant to help you breathe
I'm only here to love you and sweep you off your feet"
This time stab me
It is time stab me
Embrace the ???
Staring at the ???
As long as you kiss me while you kill me
I don't care
Maybe the birds fall silent
When you enter the room
Your flowers slowly wilting
Resembling you in every way
Your knife shines
And it's beautiful in my back
You always liked me better in pieces
Kiss me with those
Lips of lead
Tonight you will destroy me again
As my shaking body trembles and moves on
As I lay shaking to my death
you will sit and paint me in my best
I gave you my legs
Only so you could use them to run away
How cold that pistol that you carry
You're cornered!
It's loaded bearing the words
"I love you always"
Only to take one more straight through the heart
Kiss me! Kiss Me!
With those
Lips of lead!
Tonight you will find me dead
As I lay shaking to my death
You will sit and paint me in my end
I will take this knife
This paint brush and paint you
A new you
Sink 'em in, loving how depravity tastes.
As it runs down your lips, relief showers your face.
We sleep all day, just to stay alive,
just so we can all go out and die a little at night.
Aropax princess got herself a case of the shakes.
She gets her fix too little too late.
Being easy ain't pretty my sugar coated baby,
my achromatic, post-traumatic baby.
You are barely alive.
Something wicked this way comes.
I've been looking for you along horizons.
Maybe that's why it took me so long.
If I don't beg you to stop, would I become one of them?
Could I be irresistible to you?
Could I be that shine in your spit?
Could I be the breath that you don't have?
Could I be the reflection that you seem to lack?
If it could kill me, would you let it?
Something wicked this way comes.
Something wicked this way comes.
I've been looking for you along horizons.
Maybe that's why it took me so long.
If I don't beg you to stop, would I become one of them?
Sink 'em in, sink 'em in. Come on, come on.
Sink 'em in, sink 'em in. Come on, come on.
Sink 'em in, sink 'em in. Come on, come on.
My words they won’t impress the people I want them to
They won’t make a goddamn difference to any of you
Yet I keep spilling my guts and I’m so fucking sore all the time
I’ve lost all but one tooth
I’ve lost all but one tooth
I’ve lost you all
It’s all just out of some deformed act of love
I’ve tried my best but I guess I’m not fake enough
I cannot help but think I am part of the rot that’s tainted you all
The bullshit used to be so easy to sniff out
I thought I had found you out
My ruin lies upon my tongue
No one will care to notice when I’m gone
The impression I leave will be a weak one
I plan to kill this teen delusion before I’m done
I’m insignificant and I’m well aware of it
I can promise you this will be the last time I give a shit
I can see now that I have been part of the rot that has tainted you all
The bullshit used to be so easy to sniff out
Now it’s leaking from my mouth
Assemble yourselves in accordance to
The deaf, the numb, the blind
And you will find yourselves standing in the same line
My ruin lies upon my tongue
No one will care to notice when I’m gone
The impression I leave will be a weak one
I plan to kill this teen delusion before I’m done
I’ve lost you all
I'll be honest. My patience has come and gone. I messed up real bad this time.
So I'll apologize for my poor appearance, and ever awful pronunciation.
I'm shot, full of hope and I'm slightly intoxicated. Yet I'm searching for something more.
And I long for a little bit more.
It's the disappointment that's far too much to cope with when everything is a fabrication.
Our lives, our hopes, our dreams, our love was all exaggerated.
Yet I'm searching for something more. And how I've longed for so much more.
Here I am to admit defeat, I've never been one to beg pardon, but yet I'm on my knees
The ground is giving away beneath me
Worms are feasting on my feet
Soon enough you'll find
Your place is of similar taste
Something tells me I'm far from dead
I can still feel them gnawing at the meat
You can preach all you want
But if there's one thing I'm sure of,
They couldn't have paid me enough
To believe a single word
If there is a god
If there is a god
Stick the stake in,
Hold up my hands,
And welcome me onto it
We've been the best of friends
If there is a god
If there is a god
He rejected us
Once he saw what we were capable of
Fasten your hands if you want
Are you proud of what you have created?
Another dead and useless,
Faithless and vacant
Will not willingly sell my soul
To feel anything more
But that's what got me here before
I will harness the finest
Bury your shroud
It's a shame I won't be remanded
There is no grave deep enough
For low lifes like me
(There is no grave, there is no grave)
(There is no grave deep enough)
All my god damns got me nowhere
All my god damns got me...
He'll take my head apart,
Examine it carefully
So there won't be others like me
Are you proud of what you have created?
Another dead and useless,
Faithless and vacant
Will not willingly sell my soul
To feel anything more
But that's what got me here before
Are you proud?
Have I made you proud?
Are you proud of me now?
I am all I am
I am all I am
I am all I am
'Cause they never
My name is in lights above a rundown tavern. And it calls me.
It's where the women want, need, and bleed for you.
This is the kind of place where dreams come true.
And God's shaking hands with the devil.
They've got bids placed on my head! And it seems as though god is routing against me.
And the devil's my best friend. And I swear I won't give in, to this feeble attempt.
So try and stop me, from seeing you, from feeling you.
There is something about the way you move it dull this shiv of a man I am and my love for you.
She was bad news, she smoked her cigarettes slow.
... And you may have a bulletproof smile, but you are easily penetrated where it counts.
If it's the sex that you love, I'll give you something to lust about.
Goddamn, it's happening again - I'm running out of time.
I've got a gaping hole in my chest but it's alright, it's alright.
Cause I'm a hopeless romantic by day and a sex machine by night.
So cock and load your vocal cords and scream like you've never screamed before.
You wreak havoc upon my world, but yet you're so worth waiting for.
If I'm the kind of clichés, then you're the God of catastrophe.
We are ever lasting, we are what love is made of, nothing can stop us now.
I am lovesick with the machine gun blues.
Goddamn I cannot shake it out. I am lovesick with the machine gun blues.
The Romeo that you knew is dead. And It can't get worse than this.
I am a sorry excuse for a fucking hero. I am not, I am without, I am never was.
Oh, how you terrify!
With love bundled up in the backseat, and worthless confined.
In the trunk, somewhere worse is where I should've ended up.
I guess it's just my luck that I don't know how to love,
But only how to fuck things up, all these things up.
Sin is the new black, and it licks it's eager lips.
It loves how innocence tastes, it can't get worse than this. This matinee is gonna be a killer!
I was living a lie, now I'm dying to know the truth were his lips as soft as mine.
Did he make it so you found it hard to breathe, did he sweep you off your feet?
And I believe something tells me the finale will be something to see.
Preacher, Preacher, on the black box upon this stage,
Before these misguided kids,
filling up their heads with nonsense,
Of something greater after all of this.
How much more bullshit must we be fed?
Hands up, reach for your money-made god,
and let the money rain down upon your pretty little head.
We're all laughing at you, we're all laughing at you.
I may be a fool, but I'm well aware
I am meant more for this world than you,
I don't wear a cross,
I sin and I'm lost in denial.
But what is faith, if we don't lose it once in a while?
Oh what a blessing naivety is.
Oh what a blessing naivety is.
I've fallen in love with harlots,
I've danced before the devil and dined with wolves.
If cleanliness, and godliness be the case,
you haven't looked at the world lately.
I may be a fool, but I'm well aware
I am meant more for this world than you,
I don't wear a cross,
I sin and I'm lost in denial.
But what is faith, if we don't lose it once in a while?
Oh what a blessing naivety is.
Oh what a blessing naivety is.
I’m about as holy as a bullet riddled body is
I’m crooked, I’m bent, been left for dead
And I’m malcontent
With the fact that I’m feeling fine
Aside from my blackened lungs and misshapen spine
I gave myself to the night
And if you come to me in search of faith
You will find me rotting in the bowels of a saint
We’ve polluted our own
We reap what we sow
And nothing can save our souls
Do we want it? no
Do we need it? no
Do we believe it?
Are we compelled to care for love
To find a love we know nothing of?
We gave ourselves to the night
We gave ourselves to the night
I believe in sin cause sin believes in me
It carries my head on a stick and worships it
How can I forgive when I’m up to my neck in this?
You better repent
You’ve carved yourself a witch
You’ve carved yourself a witch
Come on, come give yourselves to the night
Come on, give yourselves to the night
Do we want it? no
Do we need it? no
Do we believe it?
Are we compelled to care for love
To find a love we know nothing of?
We gave ourselves to the night
You will find me rotting in the bowels of a saint
I keep a set of matches safely encased inside my ribs.
Beside my lungs and lack of common sense for times like this.
Hold your fire. Hold your fire.
The orchestra of a million great deceivers
are broadcasting on every t.v. screen!
This will rattle your bones. This will rattle your bones.
As the violins swell, the corridors fill with carosine
and we weep with each stroke of their strings.
We are all mechanical.
I got pockets full of day stars and my guts lay strewn across the floor.
My hearts crept up inside my throat, and I think I like it.
This means more than you'll ever know, and I hope you like it.
The orchestra of a million great deceivers
are broadcasting on your t.v. screen!
As the violins swell, the corridors fill with carosine
and we weep with each stroke of their strings.
We are all mechanical.
We pathetic ones, we cerebral ones.
Lovely, lovely ones. Lonely, lonely ones.
Hold your fire, hold your fire.
They will remember me after this,
they will remember me after this.
Cause I played this crowd like a harp from hell, like a harp from hell.
My heart's riddled with stitches
I'm an asphyxiated kind of blow
I've become arthritis
From touching you
I've become arthritis
Anesthetic don't come cheap
We all float,
We all float down here.
You are white and tasteless
Wide-eyed and shameless
Do you get it yet?
My conscience ain't clearing
How the hell did I end up here?
Do you get it?ÿ
Get it? Get it yet? Get it?
Get it? Get it yet?
Reaping machines taking hold of me
And let me underneath
So look at me
Always a part of me
We'll be fucking inseparable
We'll be fucking inseparable
I can't breathe, I can't breathe
(What have you done to me?)
(We all float, we all float down)
You are white and tasteless
Wide-eyed and shameless
Do you get it yet?
My conscience ain't clearing
How the hell did I endÿ up here?
Do you get it?
Get it? Get it yet? Get it?
Get it? Get it yet?
We all float down here,
It's party night tonight, just like every night;
And once again, you've death defied.
And how are those things that crawled up inside your head?
Polish off this bottle and pour yourself into bed.
Let's shoot some drugs and fall in love,
'cause I feel like...
And you're sick all the time
It's a constant battle with sunshine
But I love the way you electrify.
There's something very damaged about you,
But I've got a bad habit of never giving up
Even when you want me to.
(Touch me)
(Come apart)
Let's shoot some drugs and fall in love,
'cause I feel like getting tangled up in your bones.
Someone gave you up; you were prosthetic in love,
But I will keep you carved inside my gun
Until morning comes.
I can feel the dawn peering in,
And I'm gonna lose you all over again.
(Over again, over again, over again, over again)
I've been so high on you, I never quite came down.
Let's shoot some drugs and fall in love,
Cause I feel like getting tangled up in your bones.
Someone gave you up; you were prosthetic in love,
I am young, and I'm in love. Post-apocalyptic?
Sure.
But it's something I'm working on.
Equipped with a bible and a rifle, I should be fine, with this holiness on my side.
But what's the good in a god by your side, when the devil creeps around my neck like a snake?
We march, in the damnation parade. We're cast, Ill-starred in an operatic gun ballet. I apologize.
I have prior affairs I've arranged, I have a date with the gallows and I can't be late.
I don't care much for your advice, this drink here is rather convincing,
But your horns and tail tell me otherwise.
So I'm getting the hell out of here. The stench of deceit is far too much to bare.
And when we dance, oh how we'll dance before a conflux of crows.
Like wolves, I can't help but lick my lips at the thought of biting.
Into your skin, and tasting grace.
Oh god what I'd give to feel the slightest bit alive again. Temptation has a killer body.
I hope you never read this,
Because hurt comes early this year.
And I'll die if you stay here.
And you're screaming,
And only in you I confide.
I admire you.
I admire the sound.
I admire the strength you lack in your heart to pull through.
When the stars,
Have all burned out,
So will you.
We watched it explode before us,
Along with the people and places we took for granted.
So long love,
We'll crash and burn.
Murder this world,
Before this world murders you.
I've spent too much time letting you get away with derailing trains,
Like bombs to planes,
You are the reason for all this.
Murder she wrote,
Murder she sang,
Murder was all she could speak.
Who knew this is where we'd come to?
You always forgot to dot your I's,
And cross your T's.
Your writing was never legible,
But I know you meant good things.
We are a fucking abomination,
Love to love,
Look below at the city radiant with orange and smoke.
Was this because of us?
If so,
Let's celebrate with a glass of wine,
And a toast to those who made it out alive.
Why am I not surprised to see that we made it out alive?
Speak to me,
We can still be perfect like the charred city that held onto us for so long.
Tonight is a night to remember.
It's the start of the end of us.
Bleed baby,
For their sake will you ever give up?
Or is it something that you have no control of?
You’ve fashioned a tear that cannot be repaired
By the hands of Jesus Christ
That pale horse brings out the finest whores in us all
If you could only learn to close your mouth
You’d be loved by now
I’ve been displaced by your lack of grace
And I know sin
What a fucking failure love is
Yeah and I would pray
Yeah and I would pray only to hear you say nothing back to me
It’s quite the shame
Yeah quite the shame cause now you’re the one to blame
Come on, let’s all get high on eucharist tonight
I often question who has been steering your brain
This war will never reach an end unless I grow some
Grow some fangs or bestow my blood
Spit your sermons, cast your spells
Instill upon the weak willed
That they are aimed straight for hell
There is no devil, there is no need
I’ve found a far worse evil in front of me
Yeah and I would pray
Yeah I would pray only to hear you say nothing back to me
It’s quite the shame
Yeah quite the shame cause now you’re the one to blame
Now you’re the one I blame for everything
Come on, let’s all get high on eucharist tonight
Come on, let’s all get high on eucharist tonight
While it sleeps in bliss
You will breed an ignorance
And your children will get the worst of it
You will breed an ignorance
And your children
And your children
We are but sinners, swimming in the stomach of the shark.
But I'm making it out, and I'm making my way to his heart.
But a lot like the world, this beast is heartless. And a lot like the shark, I'm hungry for your kiss.
And I've been set in stone from the day I was born.
I'm but a thief, stealing the teeth of wolves while.
They sleep. I'm charismatic in the way I captivate!
I cannot believe I made it here, I deserve the worst
Come on, get your asses of the floor.
And prepare to witness something like you've never seen before.
It's enchanted, it's romantic, it's everything you've ever imagined.
Just for a second let's pretend that I give a damn.
I lost my dignity to a lousy girl. And I abandoned my compassion at sea!
Lord I can't deny my appetite... Come on.
I've been cast out of heaven, and I've been spit outta hell. I'm a walking desperado...
I can’t say I will miss these tender moments
Of acute hemorrhaging
It seems the only love that I let
Is that which smells of death
I’m so tired of these appendages
My skin wants off my bones
And these phantom limbs are starting to itch
Take from me and leave something
Of the nothing you bring
We found us a grim love
The kind of love where everyone’s expendable
You gnash your teeth and lash your tongue at me
I wanna bury you all
Now I’m loaded up with a bad blood
I thought I was incapable of
All you kids will be the death of me
And I will gladly let you lead me to my grave
Cause you are all just as dead me
Cause you are all just as dead me
I can’t tell if you’re hanging up here with me
Or you’ve been the ones banging in the nails
I will grin on the day I leave you with nothing
I will grin on the day death becomes me
We found us a grim love
The kind of love where everyone’s expendable
You gnash your teeth and lash your tongue at me
I wanna bury you all
Now I’m loaded up with a bad blood
I thought I was incapable of
You’ve confused me with someone who gives a damn
The only love I let is that which smells of death
The only love I let smells of death
Pretty,
You are.
Enough to be in magazines.
A "front page fuck" for this month.
It won't matter now if the cameras come,
Because they won't recognize who they're taking pictures of,
There is so much blood,
There is so much.
We'll make history tonight,
And we'll take it down with us.
I'll dress you up.
You'll radiate for miles.
I love it how you always said:
"When I go down, I'm going down in style".
So here's your wish.
The engines of the brakes are shot,
It's funny cause even when you're dead I still do what you want.
We'll make history tonight,
And we'll take it down with us.
I never thought this would be how I die,
Next to you as dead as when you were alive.
I'll do it for love.
But what's love right?
One last kiss, One last cigarette, One last chance to look back.
One last kiss, One last cigarette, One last chance to look back and forget.
One last kiss, One last cigarette, One last chance to look back,
And regret this.
Goodnight,
Quiet city good night.
Goodnight pale princess,
Goodnight in shining armor,
Goodnight Romeo,
What is left of me sits burning in the bottom of this ashtray.
I'm an ugly mess, I'm full of it, and I'm a lame excuse for a poet.
It really all comes down to my love for misfortune.
A weak stomach and a mouthful of bad intentions. Watch your mouth!
Cause I'm the son of a gun, tempt not one in love.
I live my life by a night stand bible from a motel in limbo.
I have a way with failure and I'm the poster child for giving up on you.
And this lack of belief is what leaves me room for loving you.
Relax, come on - relax and give in I was born to make you moan.
You let her climb inside your ribs and let her tangle herself up in your bones.
Don't think for a second, that she gives a damn.
It's a shame you try so hard just for a girl. Who doesn't know your name or care to remember.
And it's a shame I can't remember anything.
I can't even recall your taste or the monster that I became.
I've tasted death, it's graced my lips, I wanna give it back.
Goodness gracious how can you kiss without lips
My fingers keep getting stuck in your ribs
Have you learned nothing from this?
Skeleton skeleton skeleton
You siphoned the hearts of all your loved ones
You’ve lined your pockets with everyone’s despair
If you search the places you’ve destroyed
No one, no one will greet you there
Should you come back
I will rend you limb from limb
It’s a shame suicide ain’t in
If you come back
I will rend you limb from limb
Lord knows you’d be all over it
Do you don the red hood or act the wolf?
Your teeth are filed down from gnawing on the bullet
But you can’t help it after all, we are as animals
You were born into this, a soul turned to shit
Wont be something I will miss
Were you staved of love? had you not enough?
There is no amount of attention that will seal the crack inside your heart
You’re as desirable as a kick to the head
Blessed be all your deathbeds
All your deathbeds
But you can’t help it after all, we are as animals
You were born into this, a soul turned to shit
Wont be something I will miss
You’re worse, far worse, than the cancer you fake
Than the cancer you fake
I’ll see you at the troth
We found religion amongst the party people,
we found the answer beneath our nose.
We gave in to our intoxication and sexually transmitted
our self-centeredness onto those
who cease to admit how badly they wanted it.
Stellar in our dope-indused malevolent ways,
keeping the blood flowing all through our veins.
Let's get comatose tonight,
let's have ourselves a good time.
Let's overdose on fluorescent light,
cause we ain't dying yet, right?
We cough up debauchery from our pseudo lungs,
Makeshifted by what we've lost.
What has happened to us?
What has happened to us?
We don't make love anymore,
that is something the hopeless adore.
So what are we here for?
The drugs.
Cause it makes the world look prettier,
cause they make everyone look prettier
Let's get comatose tonight,
let's have ourselves a good time.
Let's overdose on fluorescent light,
Thank you for your words,
They are truly needed on nights like these,
When lungs collapse and hearts become lodged in throats.
You make me choke.
You make me.
You make me choke,
Preventing the right words from escaping.
It was only a kiss,
One fucking kiss.
Where did he come from?
This was ours,
I have so much love to give and the "dead" need it more than your whore of a heart does.
We drove dead highways into oblivion,
Shooting every star with our eyes,
Write our names on the glass waiting for any kind of sign.
Can you feel it drag across your throat?
We corrupt our young and we speak in tongues
We’re content with lust cause we’re in love with our guns
Hallelujah, put your hands in the air
You bare the grins of dead carps
Do you love him enough to bring blood?
I’ll praise he who counsels me
But so far I’ve heard nothing
And I ain’t shaken
And I ain’t shaken
You’re the product of kindred love
Parade around the cross to cover it up
You thrive on the faint like rats on remains
Who think they need you like a needle to the vein
Sh sh shoot it up and drift away
This faction is only fashion
And it’s fallen on its face
They lure you into their dead lights
Holy spirit compels them to
So it makes it right
So it makes it right
I truly resent you
Or maybe its envy I’m feeling
But I’ve already come to terms with feeling nothing
We’re content with lust cause we love our guns
We’re content with lust cause we love our
You’re as charismatic as a strung out fanatic in need of new holes
Keeps you fiending for more
You captivate with your words
You spit em out like clock work
And I bet it keeps your bones nice and warm
You thrive on the faint like rats on remains
Who think they need you like a needle to the vein
Sh sh shoot it up and drift away
This faction is only fashion
And it’s fallen on its face
You captivate with your words
You spit em out like clock work
You're only out
To lose yourself in a whirlwind of
Hedonistic, sun-soaked, booze drenched, depraved fornication
How is your spine?
It's been quite some time
Since it packed its shit up
And left you behind
We've all been fooled
Into believing you're well
I was crazy to think
You had a chance in hell
I love you so much I've been contemplating removing your head
I love you so much I've been contemplating removing your head
Yeah!
Ive been growing weary of
Watching you twist and coil your tongue
In and around all the ones I love
Consuming what is left of all of us
You lack any ambition
Your god awful habits are starting to sting
You like to think that you're capable
Of getting away with anything
Drink up and further dull
Your ability to feel
And I'll pray that your lack of sobriety softens the blow
When your face hits the windshield
I know what you want
I got it for ya
A one way ticket outta here
So you can die in California
Oh you rebel you
We somehow cannot grasp
The concept of steady feet
We dance amongst our sins
Which only brings us to our knees
I can't say I'm any better
Cause I've been here time or two before
But I lie...cause I'm a stubborn fuck
Who keeps coming back
Even though I am shit out of luck
Lets see what tonight throws up
Maybe a lung, maybe a slew of tongues
Maybe some old-fashioned lonesome
Really its you who keeps dragging me back
By my larynx and my lack of common sense
Everyone has been dying to have you
But I've been the only one killing for it
Line em up
One by one
Hell hath no waste like us
Ain't being empty fun?
It eats its way
Right through your head
So you never remember
The nights we spend
We are all victims to
Some form of chemical bliss
But I think deep down you really need it
Kill off this desire
Before it kills me first
Oh no, whats left in the clip
Upon this covetous thirst
Line em up
One by one
I ... (?)
We are rusting at our hinges, we are coughing up asbestos.
We are loveless, careless automated animals.
Fundamentally lonesome, and socially inept.
Come on, come on, come on, come on. We are as good as it gets.
Always in the wrong place at the wrong,
drained of our vital fluids and feeling fine.
Oh, the machines we are.
Oh, the machines we are.
Don't it seem so strange what we're willing to exchange for the world's attention?
It's a failing world we've devised (we keep broadcasting our shame)
When we want our failures televised (cause it keeps the world entertained)
The anxiety in another's eyes (keeps us feeling alive)
It gets us off, it gets us off.
Glory be to vanity cause god's too busy staring in the mirror.
Glory be to vanity cause god's too busy staring in the mirror.
We can only settle our synthetic hearts by the sound of recoil.
We determine our caliber based on how much and who we despoil.
What are we, but hornets to the swarm...
When only the body of a stranger keeps us warm?
It's a failing world we've devised (we keep broadcasting our shame)
When we want our failures televised (cause it keeps the world entertained)
The anxiety in another's eyes (keeps us feeling alive)
I've been foolishly biting my time
But its fangs are sharper than mine
Paranoia has taken the place, taken the place of god
But that's all its purpose was
Keep your faith
Keep your faith
if it's what you got, by all means
Believe what you want
I've been spitting on my own grave
No amount of grace can get me saved, get me saved
And yet I'm surprised
My heart has become
The dwelling place of demons
One of these days,
I won't wake up as much as I'll come to,
It has something to do with you
I feel you coursing through my veins
Who knows if you leave I won't be the same
I've been spitting on my own grave
No amount of grace can get me saved, get me saved
After I'm reduced to waste
And this world's washed its hands of me
Godforbid I come back late, the only instruction you'll need
Get off your knees
Get off your knees
I'll be alright, believe me
I'll be just fine, believe me
Get off your knees
Get off your knees
My heart has become
The dwelling place of demons
One of these days I won't have the lungs
to be pardoned for what I've done
and even if I do, it won't be poetic ones?
There is panic in the streets.
The women and children are screaming.
They're running with glass in their feet,
And it's getting harder and harder to see anything.
So we'll just sit here,
Waiting and watching the world illuminate like a new sun.
From here,
We see like god.
And it's a...
Burn,
Baby,
Burn.
Abandon all ships,
The end is coming.
We can't stop this from happening.
Love can't stop this from happening.
Love can't stop this from happening.
So we'll just sit here waiting and watching the world illuminate like a new sun.
From here,
We see like god.
And it's a fucking party.
We thought we could make it through hell and back.
Just you and I,
Two star-crossed lovers.
But we were so wrong.
Now who is going to save us?
Somebody save us.
Somebody.
You’re so damn good at making it hurt so bad
Are you feeling anything yet?
You haven’t loosened your grip around my neck
Your love is amphetamine
I’ve lost all feeling in my extremities
But I could be
I could be your one and only
Convince yourself your not rotting inside
And that tonight’s the best night of your life
We’ll be serpentine..joint intravenously
We could be the perfect disease
But you don’t belong to me
We could never belong
And I want to tell you that I surely do give a damn
But I cannot tell you cause I’m sure as hell scared to death
Are you feeling anything yet?
This is my skin you’ve been crawling in
This is my skin you’ve been crawling around in
You perch atop the skulls of those persuade (looking down on me)
Pleased by the mess you’ve made
You are the perfect drug in the sense that you keep me stoic
And detached and I love you for that
If this is love load me up
If this is love load me up
If this is love load me up
If this is love
I want to tell you that I
And I want to tell you that I surely do give a damn
But I cannot tell you cause I’m sure as hell scared to death
Are you feeling anything yet?
I’d love to have you, but you don’t belong to me
