I am waiting 'til there's nothing left I'm a prayer, all you see is breath I am empty, I am skin and bones, I'm a ribcage Well, I'm out the door with apathy But I'm coming home with sympathy I am realized, I am shamed, I choose to stay here You got a sign, so I paid the ransom You felt sorry, so I felt the wrath come Had a nice grip on my life 'til you twisted my arm My arm There's a song I love so much I stole Every precious note I took, I sold Now I spit out words, do you see my lungs on the dance floor? To a hopeless cause, I sold my soul A romantic plastic piece of shit you can mold Until I break into chokable pieces You got a sign, so I paid the ransom You felt sorry, so I felt the wrath come Had a nice grip on my life 'til you twisted my arm My arm And I open up like the back of a book I ruin everything with just a quick look And I settle down like a rocket explodes Hit the ground, but how far out who knows You got a sign, so I paid the ransom You felt sorry, so I felt the wrath come Had a nice grip on my life 'til you twisted my arm My arm
Here we are again with handguns for hearts They had a master plan, wanted to tear us apart Nothing to hold, all hope deleted Our demise has been completed now Nowhere left to go but down The flames of hell they give me hope, I drown In oceans of this tragic part of town Where nothing's heard for miles but the sound Of children wishing they were safely underground We are the walking dead, we hold this ghost in our arms We take our daily breath and thank our unlucky stars Tried to get by on bread and water Craving blood poured from the alter now Not much left to do but drown In flames of miscommunication, down Then out and off in search of someone proud To translate what we truly dream about As we lay in this bed thinking out loud I'm screaming uncle, mercy me And my broken telepathy For I'm left with nothing but this bloodless riverbank West Memphis, please I'm begging you to stop praying for me Down The flames of hell they give me hope, I drown In oceans of this tragic part of town Where nothing's heard for miles but the sound Of children wishing they were safely underground

There's someone down below blowing you a kiss. They watch from their windows as all arms fall to their sides, and all eyes fix on the death of tomorrow. And you found everything you need to make a life complete, completely revolting and they have safety and relief For sale up the street. I see you in line every day You had time to waste and I'm not sorry, such a basket case, hide the cutlery. I had time to kill, it's dead and buried. You've got guts to spill but no one trustworthy.

It's not just the pain, the pain in my back That laughs in my face, my face every night Or the poison that took my lungs That keeps me from feeling warm
And how could a rooftop view in London Look just the same as one in Brooklyn? Nothing has changed, but now but now I fight with the words And I can't see so good
And there's gotta be more, much more than this I got pages of dreams, they're covered in piss And the poison that took my soul That keeps me from feeling anything
And how could a rooftop view in London Look just the same as one in Brooklyn? Nothing has changed, but now but now I fight with the words And I can't see so good

There's a lightning storm each and every night Crashing inside you like motorbikes We toss and turn, sleep so loud Grind the teeth in our Our empty mouths (are empty...) There's a forest fire burning bright Spreading quickly towards our last rites Nowhere to run, pointless to hide Just lay there and scream, pretending to try Pretending... Intending to burn, pretending to fight it Everyone learns faster on fire Things took a turn, lost all desire You live and you burn You live and you burn This impending doom is left deep inside And it's haunting you each and every night Like starving wolves counting sheep We close our eyes, pretending to sleep Descending... Intending to burn, pretending to fight it Everyone learns faster on fire Things took a turn, lost all desire You live and you burn You live and... Like hell we are anxiously waiting Like hell burning silently strong Somehow we fell down by the wayside And somehow this hell is home As we burn, pretending to fight it Everyone learns faster on fire Things took a turn, lost all desire You live and you burn You live and... Like hell we are anxiously waiting Like hell burning silently strong Somehow we fell down by the wayside And somehow this hell is home Right now, this hell is my home

Not sure how this is supposed to feel Cutting like a red hot knife of surgical steel Brought fresh from the autoclave. She came, she came with sterile warning Screaming from her blade, Singing, ""I want to make you bleed."" I watched them fall in line, as I fell victim To double suicide on your television We heard our records backwards too many times I'm wasting my breath, we're wasting our time Wasting our time Down on my knees, but not to pray Hit so hard across the skull, it buckled my legs They told me I had hell to pay I came, I came too close to heaven Had nothing to say for myself I had to walk away I watched them fall in line, as I fell victim To double suicide on your television We heard our records backwards too many times I'm wasting my breath, we're wasting our time Wasting our time Time Wasting our time Wasting our time I watched them fall in line, as I fell victim To double suicide on your television We heard our records backwards too many times I'm wasting my breath, we're wasting our...
it's not so much a storm, but just a cloud that lives inside of me he doesn't stir so easily these days, but when he wakes he goes the distance in a marathon of days too long open containers that sing songs, ""you'll never dream again, but you can pray"" i guess we only settle in to what we know i guess we always settle in, and we know. that there is comfort in a world where darkness is the only thing we see and cold is all we have to breathe where affectations keep us company, where the lies we tell to the eyes that roll in doubt are somehow out of our control. it's not about the scars, but more the crowds that walk all over me they don't give up too easily these days, but when they break they go to pieces. fall apart right here in north side bars under a sky that knows no stars you'll never shine again, but you will stay. i guess we only settle in to what we know i guess we always settle in, and we know. that there is comfort in a world where darkness is the only thing we see and cold is all we have to breathe where affectations keep us company, where the lies we tell to the eyes that roll in doubt are somehow out of our control. And there is comfort in a world where darkness is the only thing we see and cold is all we have to breathe where affectations keep us company, where the lies we tell to the eyes that roll in doubt are somehow out of our control. we lost control.
You're on your own my little nightmare you cannot stay here It's far too bright for you If they attack you just lay there, Play dead dear, it's your only hope of pulling through. And seconds they seem like a lifetime. A dream, recurring, a dream that can't come true. And they'll pin it all on you after all you've been put through. ""Sadie G. she's crazy, see?"" That's what the white coats say. Now Ms. Susan A. you're losing every opportunity to put us all away. Now run along my little nightmare. Your job is done here. You've scared them all to death. If they revive them just sit there. Just smile dear. Make them thankful for every breath. The sentence may seem like a lifetime, a scream, that's curdling the blood they found on you. And your knives and clothing too. Charlie's broken .22 ""Sadie G. she's crazy, see?"" That's what the white coats say. Now Ms. Susan A. you're losing every opportunity. Well they found you and they shipped you up the river the same way that you've bound and gaged. You've shot and stab. You tried to set them free, but they've thrown away the keys. [Spoken:] ""He represented a God to me that was so beautiful that I'd do anything for him. I'd do anything for God. Even murder, if I believed it was right. How could it not be right if it is done with love? I have no remorse for doing what was right to me. I have no guilt in me."" Whoa Whoa Whoa Whoa
