It's beyond me why you always. Second guess the things you're offering. Why won't you just take things as they are?. . Is the reason rooted in your broken heart.
If it's bad timing, it's alright. If it's bad timing, it's just fine. Alright. . You want an answer, I can't give. You want to be selfish, want to be saved.
One hoped they'd break the patent when they die cast me in stride. A simple steel specimen, truly empty down inside. With copper-core wound veins, a pumping cold hydraulic heart.
This is the last night in my body, yeah. This is the last night in my body, yeah. . (Somehow, for now, this skin will have to do). This is the last night in my body, yeah.
I'll be the salt that resides. From the water that drains from your eyes. The sting that burns your open wounds. . I'll flood the ground. I swear on your grave I'll bury this town.
How did you know to find me here?. Tipped off you tiptoed to the tune of tapped wires. And insider information. . This manifested destiny. You think you can bestow on me.
Don't love me and don't you dare care for me. I will only bring you pain. All the pleasure you can gather in this place. Will just amount to shame. . All the bright colors I've ever loved.
I've got this little itch that I never learned to scratch. It seems that even if I had, I'd rather itch than not. When the pleasure is the lesser and it's giving to the pressure.
This little light of mine. I was told to let it shine. But I stood idly by. And watched that poor flame die. . I kept it from the bushel and brush. Away from the grasp of men.
thought about holding my breath last night. until my face turned blue. and waited for my world to turn black as I laid in your arms,. an air deprived suicide.
Men are waiting patiently. Remove me from the scene. A sea of faceless souls in suits. A sight for eyes, like thumbs. Sore crooked and bow and foul relief.
Your gross fabrication of pretext could bore. Yet still I fall victim to syntax omitted. Just shy of something I could understand. . So blissful, I press on to the sound of the organs.
The apparitions tango to the sound of their heels tapping. A procession of prosthetic limbs and mannequins. They're all perfect models of imperfection.
Look alive gentleman. Or fake your death. Tour wounds undressed beneath your costumes. Some are so well rehearsed. For hearses it hurts. Always the first to wave the white flag.
Alongside all hearts. As they finish with backdrop cities. As jagged teeth are digging deeper. Ripping new wounds for former scars. Stricken with insomnia.
We have the chance to turn the pages over. We can write what we want to write. We gotta make ends meet before we get much older. . We're all someone's daughter, we're all someone's son.
It's my turn, it's not your turn. It's my turn, get outta my way. It's my turn, go on complain. I'm comin' through anyway. . Don't ask me why I'm like this.
Second Place to you is the last place I ever thought I'd be. and in this race the selfish survive while the selfless suffocate in suffering. I'm choking on the words that kept us alive.
We were younger then, you and me. Full of dreams, weren't we?. I went my way, you went yours. Where did you go, dear?. . Someone said, you have left. The life we lived, together then.
Its the consequence of privileged information. You can run, you can hide but light will find a way. And wither away, haunted and haunting. We all are followed by shadows from martyrs and mercenaries.
