I've already come to terms with bridges I have burned We all make mistakes We keep preparing for the worst So we won't seem adverse Just like we rehearsed Click, two, three heartbreaking music So close to loss we use it How much honesty's healthy Say what's on your mind The only way to be Drugs are only for dessert do your homework first We do not administer the cure for that thirst Cause it's always been heartbreaking music so close to death we use it (killing) writing this over and over it'll never mend I am the jest malignant cell playwright to your hell I think I knew you well But I wish I were as smart as you I could have changed your mind Would have, should have, the question 'til I die But it's always been heartbreaking music so close to life we abuse it (killing) |

Get up, smile, find a need, wash your hair, bleach your teeth
Develop habit, Automatic Compromise, build a bridge, Sacrifice, sacrilege Sell yourself, Automatic Nobody out there knows None of them have intent Pretension and purpose Fashioned in plastic heads Everyone drives all day None of them have a goal Everyone's lost their way All of them play the game Set a goal Make it happen Imagine love Fake a passion Change your name Stay in fashion Make a deal Make it happen Compromise, build a bridge Sacrifice, sacrilege Same cars Same clothes Same desires Same woes Lose it all Automatic Nobody out there feels None of them sees the end Pretension and purpose Fashioning plastic heads Everyone drives all day Searching their empty hearts Everyone's lost their way All of us fall apart Automatic Automatic |

Don't leave me in this room
The walls are closing in This is the space I used to say The line is drawn for you each day But every day you show With sound of caving walls Some day this song will have no pulse And I'll cave alone But there we are Waiting for your answer Your arms speeded elation Beating out your salvation But when the tape stopped you were gone A half measure from home This week I recreate Edit you back into The blare that could define you Coveted by few who knew The phone rings without pause This grief wills everyone All I have is our shitty song How could it ever be enough? Here we are in our final accord A mortician and his tools Sonically bury you You could have chose another chord to resolve on |

We colonize a better place
(Unable to transform our fate) We follow whatever path grows (Directions no one knows) Given the choice for normalcy You seem content in who you've come to be They said he re-installed his plague (Said to have re-vamped that limp vein) As if it all ends formulaic (Painless escape) We share the same virus of love and hope And it's a fleeting beauty You did everything you could You were there for him through bad and good So disappear before you follow suit The parasites, they are still there to swallow you Beating through an obtrude chest Every emotive plea's a stretch No praise enough to build a life (No words to instill pride) And through your life disorder rides I did everything I could Mostly there for him through bad and good I disappeared as always waiting for the born-again call The one that signals to us all This bender's over again Listen for one last faint heartbeat (Holding his hand in hopes he breathes) All of those sad years have come to this (Your head lay on his sunken chest) The thought of you at his deathbed The latest virus in my head Unjust, unjust Selfless you tended to our ghost Katherine an unconditional untiring host Well you were there for him when he needed you the most I hope someone restores your heart I hope something restores your world |

Used to recognize the gun in your hand
Promise, squandered Used to understand the stake in your heart Mileage, road worth But it's hard to recognize the massive burden Born of love and bad deeds And it runs in the family from beginning to end It is just revenge Everybody build a monument to pain Flowers, fast cars Everybody raise the thief in their heart It's just a beating And it sounds just like a million other tributes Customs and demons And it runs in the family with a million regrets It's just (It's just revenge) revenge Everybody build a monument to fear Unsafe people Everybody raise a paranoid child It's just an over-stimulated mind And it sounds just like a billion people starving with no resource for love And it runs in the family with a million missteps It's just revenge Everything echoes Everyone emulates Everyone is a victim of their blood Everyday initiate Everything echoes Everyone echoes All of us are running with the wolves All of us are running out of life |

In a chalk dotted line
Draw a kid, left behind Severed limbs in harmony Strumming from a few good deeds Carry it to survive To a bed half alive Held before a dozen times Deep inside a funeral for a friend Runs in portions like film clips Run, run Rundown the list The memoirist Like kindling Burn, burn, burn, burn down I will stay inside The saved It's a good mourning They will ignite you The doomed I will write for you Of a boy, damaged goods Of a bench, understood For a spell, the soul resides In a yellow chalk outline Carry on the camel's back Have another heart attack To the cure I would drive Played that scene a hundred times to date Today's ambition, to relate In a sustaining saccharine state Impart the burden and get well It's what everyone's trying to sell Anything you want to be Weigh the screenplay and revise Warp, warp, warp with the contortionist So hopelessly ill-fated everyday He will stay inside The doomed It's a good mourning to loom They will inspire him The saved Innocently filling graves |

As you sat on the bed
Moments from your end Inconceivable dread Inches from your head I can't bear to imagine you In that horror scene One too sad to be In my mind's eye I am there Embracing you so scared Now you kill me too You killed me too Decidedly willing to lie for you Absolutely willing to cry for you Ill at ease in saying goodbye to you A part of me will never know I am there, again, intervals of red An accomplice to Things I couldn't do In a fable disabled I say words like foolish son God what have you done I'm a thin blue clich??????짤, hopelessly I'm a mouthful of doubtful Decidedly willing to lie for you Say again Willing to cry for you Finally saying goodbye to you A part of you I'll never know Looking through the spyglass in a punctured sky While your garden died You couldn't see the sky for your fallen stars Endless in your arms You were still alive even as the sad astronaut |

How does it start?
When does it end? Blood and love graces everyone You only want to touch it once He didn't give it up She wasn't long enough They didn't save your falling smile He never had a chance But there it is You're finally blessed And you can't handle it The worst What did it say? All you really need is love But you're gonna make those fuckers pay You're gonna hurt someone That's all there really is The ones that don't survive They lied to you a thousand times And your starving heart has died But there it is You're finally blessed Failure, failure, failure A cement frown breaking Allows a straight line blown away It fell at thirteen You're wide awake Hours blind every winding curve You start the fall from grace The worst You never had a chance But here it is You're finally blessed |

Controlled, consumed
Thoughts unattached Each one a failed synapses detached from fact One positive, one negative Desperate, holding on to healthy images Remember witness, wattness, matters we're not gonna make it Provoking everyone but no one gives a... Half laugh, half sigh Half-sad, half-smile Losing ability to recall his half-life Burn from the stove Keys locked inside Dazed as impending anger turns up in reprise Remember green light, keeper, easy and eyes on the road ahead Provoking everyone with all the words he said Infectious I won't speak of all that would have been Gained, lost, spent But I won't think of all that could have been Controlled, consumed Thoughts unattached Outburst, these images are melding in my head Remember Franken, Milkweg, Lintfabrik The weirdest we have seen Fires and blown-out tires Perfect tragedy Infectious Infectious But I won't think of all that should have been Waste, lost, spent But I won't think of all that could have been Goodbye old friend I won't speak of all that could have been Goodbye old friend I won't speak of all that could have been Goodbye old friend |

The days are full of storybook romance
the myriad of thoughtful acts A million ways I'm into you I'm never getting over you I'm sorry for exposing you I know you hate it when I do But I had to write one for my better half The days are new, the nights unwind You break my world, you change my mind Run out of love, come down from life Run out of pain, my life has changed It's obvious it's all been said in cheesy poems and chick flicks The mushy shit that people say, it makes us chuckle everyday So how can I express to you the recent dramas we've been through I wouldn't have been fine without your help The days are new, the nights unwind You touch my world, you change my life Run out of love, run out of life Come down from hate, the world has changed But we may never have met if it weren't for him Hey Derrick, maybe somehow you're listening Today's mantra is gratitude You changed my life I'm sure you knew I'll never forget the words that you said The life that you lead I'll never forget, I'll never forget |
