1. YOUR SWORD VS. MY DAGGER
I'm cutting through, you're bleeding out
And I would tell the truth, but I can't help myself
Red rushes out, dissect this nerve
And I'll stop myself before I reach my cell
I wasn't asking for the world
And you know that I'm not one to follow through
All these city streets the people look the same
And I can see your face, and I can hear your name
I wasn't asking for the world
You're stabbing in. Permanent scars
And you'll justify it all inside yourself
You've finished me, my pulse is gone
And you're satisfied to put this all to hell
I wasn't asking for the world
And you know that I'm not one to follow through
All these city streets the people look the same
And I can see your face, and I can hear your name
I wasn't asking for the world
Drink the poison, when you think it's over
(Drink the poison)
Stabbing yourself, when you think it's too late
Tragic endings are your thing, you love them
(Tragic endings)
You love letting go, the ending's the same
Drink the poison, when you think it's over
(Drink the poison)
Inevitable, Verona lives inside of you
I wasn't asking for the world
And you know that I'm not one to follow through
All these city streets the people look the same
And I can see your face, and I can hear your name
I wasn't asking for the world
2. SMILE IN YOUR SLEEP
When I'm lying in your bed play the motions through my head
you know that I'm thinking, I'm thinking...
and I have reasons to believe that I'm not the only
one you spend this time with, but I'll stay...
[Chorus]
You say, you're weak,
you wont let me down (x2)
you lie through your teeth
you smile in your sleep (x2)
When we met you said we were the same, you know
that we're different, we're different,
and all the times you promised me that everything would
work out in the end, you were gravely mistaken
[Chorus]
You lie (x4)
You lie through your teeth
you wont let me down, you lie
I deserve better than this
I dream of steel.
Maroon and warm, your end.
You gasp for air. I'll see this through,
I'll see through you, your pale blue eyes.
When you're lying in your bed, your eulogy's been read
You know that it's fitting, you lie.
[Chorus]
You smile (x4)
I deserve better than this
3. IDES OF MARCH
Tie me up with sheets, and hang me from your tree
I'll stay out here all night, it doesn't even matter
As long as I can see, into your room and feel
Like I'm inside your life, I'll follow you forever
Don't cut me down just yet, I'll make things right again
Don't close your blinds on me, on me...
I will never recover from this
I will never believe in this again
And I can never go back to the way I used to be before this started
The snow won't go away, My nose runs down my face
No one sees me here, It doesn't even matter
And every step I take, I stay in the same place
I can't begin to start again why can't I just be perfect?
I will never recover from this
I will never believe in this again
I can never go back to the way I used to be before this started
I will never recover from this
I will never believe in this again
I can never go back to the way I used to be before this started
You see my ghost and you'll never forget it
My face is as white as the snow that haunts me
Your windows my door and nothing can stop me
Sometimes betrayal can make you happy
Don't cut me down just yet, I'll make things right again
Don't close your blinds on me, on me...
I will never recover from this
I will never believe in this again
I can never go back to the way I used to be before this started
I will never recover from this
I will never believe in this again
I can never go back to the way I used to be before this started
4. FIST WRAPPED IN BLOOD
(Come on!)
Finish me off, follow the plan
break all the bonds, sever the ties
and now your mission is complete, find and destroy me.
torturing me, with words from your lips
filleting my skin, pulling my teeth
please forgive me for not being good enough.
Drown your sorrows in my pain (pain)
and it's something you can't explain.
when I'm choking on words you'll never say (say)
and you'll never feel the same
(Same!)
Bound and gagged, I cannot move or speak
these things I want to say, I can't explain them anyway
so if I had it all again, if I could start from the first words I ever said
I would do it all the same.
Drown your sorrows in my pain (pain)
and it's something you can't explain.
when I'm choking on words you'll never say (say)
and you'll never feel the same
Your joy is my pain
my fingers are yours to cut off
and my bones are yours to shatter in pieces.
my teeth are yours to pull out and my soul is yours to slowly rip apart.
I can't trust anyone I meet.
From now on, my chest feels more like
a fist wrapped in blood
5. DISCOVERING THE WATERFRONT
I will promise myself I won't care
distracting myself from your stare
and I've seen this mistake once before
with your games I will never fall for
I've hung up my guns....
I won't kill again
[Chorus]
I won't forget you (I won't forget you)
I'm not gonna let you win (I'm not gonna...)
but I'm tired of lying
tired of fighting you
and it's not gonna change
You ask for my heart
you know that I'm down
but not the way you lie to me,
you tear it all apart and beg for me to say
I sail off to sea (I sail off to sea),
I'm not coming back
[Chorus]
Counting down
Make that sounds
When you know it makes no sense
Counting down
Till you mess around
When I know you can't ever change
Why am I trembling?
Throw it overboard
When I'm ready to we'll progress
Counting down
Make that sounds
Break the silence
Pretend it's not for never,
I'll pull myself together
I'll say that I'll forget her,
I'll breathe.
And I'll say she never hurt me,
And look at it as learning,
And laugh about the good and the bad.
Because I won't live forever
We don't belong together,
I know I'll be all better,
One day when I can make it through.
[Chorus] (x2)
6. DEFEND YOU
I'm lying down
And you can't see why
I've gone to sleep
Try to relate
Can't give in to your temptations (temptations)
All your hopes and dreams,
Washing away silently
Forget everything you taught me (you taught me)
When I looked up to you
Fall to your knees
And give up your aspirations (aspirations)
Falling to your knees
[Chorus]
So how can you expect
Me to just close my eyes
And forget your mistakes?
Defending you is getting
Harder everyday, day
I'm breaking down
The ending's near,
The final call to make it through (make it through)
You'll choose
Try to relate, forget everything
You taught me (you taught me)
When I looked up to you
[Chorus]
I'll look inside myself for strength
Like a million times before
You'll never let it in because
I know you said
I know you said
I know, I know, I know, I know
Fall, how can you let it go? (let it go)
How can you be this way?
I'll never forget (never forget)
Where I come from, where I've been
I'll never become you
[Chorus] (x2)
You've lost it all
7. MY HEROINE
The drugs begin to peak
A smile of joy arrives in me
But sedation changes to panic and nausea
And breath starts to shorten
And heartbeats pound softer
You won't try to save me!
You just want to hurt me and leave me desperate!
You taught my heart, a sense I never knew I had.
I can't forget, the times that I was
Lost and depressed from the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine!
You won't leave me alone!
Chisel my heart out of stone, I give in everytime.
You taught my heart, a sense I never knew I had
I can't forget, the times that I was
Lost and depressed from the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine!
I bet you laugh, at the thought of me thinking for myself. (myself)
I bet you believe, that I'm better off with you than someone else.
Your face arrives again, all hope I had becomes surreal.
But under your covers more torture than pleasure
And just past your lips there's more anger than laughter
Not now or forever will I ever change you
I know that to go on, I'll break you, my habit!
You taught my heart, a sense I never knew I had.
I can't forget, the times when I was
Lost and depressed form the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine!
I will save myself!
8. ALWAYS AND NEVER
This took my fate, giving in
To your lips, To your Lies
You say that, that it would come back to haunt me
Crooked smile, the reflection in your eyes
That shows Why wait this for Beautiful mistakes
Something that I know you've seen before
I'm not the first
Set the trap, I've fallen for it every time
I can't believe, everyone you told this to
This would come back to haunt me
I can't stand to see you now
How could I ever trust you
Take it back to the streets
I'll start again
I'll never look back
I'll never look back, back
How do you feel it if
You don't feel anything
Don't have a heart attack
Don't have a heart attack
But I won't stop you
Cutting Me, razor blades and perfect lines
Were just, you'll get anything you want
Broken hearts surround everything you wanna say
Which shows, why wait this for Falling in my path
My wallowing despair that shines in black
It consumes me, I'll take it back
Give it back, to what it was
I can't believe Everyone you told this to
This would come back to haunt me
I can't stand to see you now
How could I ever trust you
Take it back to the streets
I'll start again
I'll never look back
I'll never look back, back
How do you feel it if
You don't feel anything
Don't have a heart attack
don't have a heart attack!
But I won't stop you
Everyone you promised to
This would come back to haunt me
I can't stand to see you now
How could I ever trust you
Cut me out, of your life
Like its nothing (like I'm nothing)
Wait for this
You can't love, Don't explain it
Part of me is gone,
You've taken (x4)
Part of me is gone,
You've take (x2)
A piece thats from me
Take it back to the streets
I'll start again
I'll never look back
I'll never look back, back
How do you feel it if
You don't feel anything
Don't have a heart attack
Don't have a heart attack
But I won't stop you
You won't stop, you'll never change
You won't stop, you'll never change
9. ALREADY DEAD
You won't find me here
The place that you expected me to be
In my bed on the second floor
I'm outside your house
I'm closing in on you
And all the times you smiled
You said hello and thought I was ok
I was planning your final struggle
[Chorus]
When you wake up I'll be there
When you see me you'll be on your back again
(When you, when you, when you, when you)
Know you're already dead
You'll love me too
You will find me here
The place you least expected me to be
Breaking through your basement window
I'm outside your room
I can hear you breathe
And all the times you laughed
You shook my hand and thought I was your friend
I was planning your tragic ending
[Chorus]
You'll look down on me, with eyes of endless tragedy
Try and stop the pain, but there's never closure
Find your solace in what you could have been
When they look for me, the evidence is buried deep
Try to guide the way into the darkness
[Chorus]
Looking down on me through eyes that never stop crying
looking down on me, will you ever look away?
10. THREE HOURS BACK
Let's go!!
Indifference grows, indifference feeds on me
A sickness fills the pathways were I breathe
Miles away from where I want to be, want to be
One day you will see!!
Nothing is this simple, this simple
One day you will see!!
It takes its toll on me, toll on me
Hey! Lie awake and wait out all those
Days! Till I finally come home
Changed and jaded, everything that I hate
I'll be there...
Trading in my youth, for broken wings
As I slowly watch you
Walk away, so walk away
Will you stay, will you stay, will you walk away?
Fall asleep to flashing screens and paper cuts
Waking up with vacant eyes and broken hearts again!!
One day you will see!
(One day you will see!)
Nothing is this simple, this simple
One day you will see!
(One day you will see!)
It takes its toll on me, toll on me
Hey! Lie awake and wait out all those
Days! Till I finally come home
Changed and jaded, everything that I hate
I'll be there...
11. CALL IT KARMA
Blame it on the weather, but I'm a mess
And this february darkness. has me hating everyone
And I know I give you comfort, but this trouble makes me sick
And the longer I lay here, I know it's harder to get up
without you
[Chorus]
Lose another day here
Lose another year here
I'm with you
Find me something out there, that's making sense
And it's just another trend carefully hidden in your dress
And the cycles neverending, and the fashions overdone
And the further that I run away, the further I'll come back
to shelter...
[Chorus]
You are the fire, on my apartment floor
Sixteen stories, I'd rather burn then fall
It isn't fate, that took us all by storm
It's just the turn of a card
[Chorus]
You are the fire, on my apartment floor
Sixteen stories, I'd rather burn then fall
It isn't fate, that took us all by storm
It's just the turn of a card
Goodbye old friend
Goodbye goodnight
I'll move on
You'll call it fate, I'll call it karma
We had our time, it was fun
While it lasted
I'll look back, with honor
And no regrets
I won't be mad, won't feel bad
These memories will never leave me
Don't be sad
Cause life goes on, life goes on
It's getting too late
Tomorrow is here
12. RODEO CLOWN
Return it to you, that I kept it for a year.
All these times I figured you'd be here (Hey!)
The last time I saw you, I tried to move right through the crowd
And I was calling your name, but the band played too loud
The last time I saw you, I tried to move right through the crowd
Was calling your name but the band played loud!
Note that I kept it for a year
All these times I figured you'd be here (Go!)
The last time I saw you, I tried to move right through the crowd
And I was calling your name, but the band played too loud
The last time I saw you, I tried to move right through the crowd!
Was calling your name but the band played loud!
Rodeo clown (x2)
Did you know?
