Well now this could be the last of all the rides we take,
So hold on tight and don't look back. We don't care about the message or the rules they make, I'll find you when the sun goes black. And you only live forever in the lights you make. When we were young we used to say That you only hear the music when your heart begins to break. Now we are the kids from yesterday. All the cameras watch the accidents and stars you hate, They only care if you can bleed. Does the television make you feel the pills you ate? Or every person that you need to be Cause you only live forever in the lights you make. When we were young we used to say That you only hear the music when your heart begins to break. Now we are the kids from yesterday. Today, today, We are the kids from yesterday. Today, today... Here we are, and we won't stop breathing. Yell it out 'til your heart stops beating. We are the kids from yesterday, Today. Cause you only live forever in the lights you make. When we were young we used to say That you only hear the music when your heart begins to break. Now we are the kids from yesterday. We are the kids from yesterday. We are the kids from yesterday. We are the kids from yesterday, Today, today. Shaking like a dog shittin' razorblades,
waking up next to nothing after dreaming of you and me I'm waking up all alone, waking up so relieved while you're taking your time with apologies, I'm making my plans for revenge Red eyes on orange horizons If Columbus was wrong I'd drive straight off the edge I'd drive straight off the edge Taking your own life with boredom, I'm taking my own life with wine - it helps you to rule out the sorrow, it helps me to empty my mind Making the most of a bad time I'm smoking the brains from my head Leaving the coal calling the kettle black and orange and red This kettle is seeing red I've got a big fat fuckin' bone to pick with you my darling In case you haven't heard I'm sick and tired of trying I wish you would take my radio to bathe with you, plugged in and ready to fall Shaking like a dog shittin' razorblades, waking up next to nothing after dreaming of you and me I'm waking up all alone, waking up so relieved while you're taking your time with apologies, I'm planning out my revenge Red eyes on orange horizons If Columbus was wrong I'd drive straight off the edge I'm seeing red I've got a big fat fuckin' bone to pick with you my darling In case you haven't heard I'm sick and tired of trying I wish you would take my radio to bathe with you, plugged in and ready to fall Plugged in and ready to fall Plugged in and ready to fall Plugged in and ready to fall My point of reference makes me afraid to begin convincing,
But you might as well just change your name. 'Cause I only recognize this shadow, Kinda blackened superhero with nobody's best interests in mind. Now there's blood in the water, that heart bleeds from this stone here, And we turned into our cheap wine. And I swallowed every drop, yes, I could feel my stomach rot, And you were so supportive as I drank through the pain. You recognize this shape, it's the back of your hand. (Whoa-oh whoa-oh [x2]) You placed it on my face here again, and again, yeah. (Whoa-oh whoa-oh [x2]) And I don't wanna be the one who takes this place in vein. Dove off that east side platform, jack-knifed a bone dry floor. One broken ankle save my name. And this eraser burn, I dig in deep at every turn. It keeps getting darker and the fear stays the same. You recognize this shape, it's the back of your hand. (Whoa-oh whoa-oh [x2]) You placed it on my face here again, and again, yeah. (Whoa-oh whoa-oh [x2]) And I don't wanna be the one who takes this place, Don't wanna be the one who takes, I don't wanna be the one who takes this place in vein. (Whoa-oh whoa-oh, Whoa-oh whoa-oh oh [x2]) I don't wanna take, I don't wanna take this place, no. I don't want to take, I don't wanna take this place, no. No-oh, no-oh. I don't wanna take this place, no. No-oh, no-oh. I don't wanna take this place, no. You recognize this shape, it's the back of your hand. (Whoa-oh whoa-oh [x2]) You placed it on my face here again, and again, yeah. (Whoa-oh whoa-oh [x2]) And I don't wanna be the one who takes this place, Don't wanna be the one who takes, I don't wanna be the one who takes this place in vein.

I never meant to be the one who kept you from the dark, But now I know my wounds are sewn because of who you are. I will take this burden on and become the holy one, But remember I am human, and I'm bound to sing this song. So hear my voice, Remind you not to bleed. I'm here. Saviour will be there, When you are feeling alone, ohhh. A saviour for all that you do, So live freely without their harm. So here I write my lullaby to all the lonely ones. Remember as you learn to try to be the one you love, So I can take this pen and teach you how to live, But what is left unsaid, the greatest gift I gave. So hear my voice, Remind you not to bleed. I'm here! Saviour will be there, When you are feeling alone, ohhh. A saviour for all that you do, So live freely without their harm. Saviour will be there, When you are feeling alone, ohhh. A saviour for all that you do, So live freely without their harm. When I hear your cries Praying for life, I will be there! When I hear your cries Praying for life, I will be there!!! I will be there! I will always be there! I will be there! Nothing is real
I know this cause I made a deal With the devil He told me that I was just wasting my time on the moon So I flew to the sun Lost track of my soul on the run Suffering 12 degree burns I learned that the sun was no fun So I went back to earth Tripped and fell in the glorified dirt Honestly, gravity sees me as a liability So I held my breath Til my soul left my body for dead I ripped through the clouds To talk with the man in the sky I said "Take this for what it is I think you're a tad bit prejudiced Against the ones like us that are searching for the answers" He said "Kid you don't know shit You should go back home and live In that quiet little town you left behind" I'm coming home Don't you cry (don't you cry) I'm coming home Just in time (just in time) I am a fake A constant go-getter of fate I lost track of time I carried my mind on a plate I seasoned it well With acid and M.D.M.A. Then I howled at the moon Til the sun burnt out both of my eyes So I checked my pulse Standing there white as a ghost I lacked a complexion And stabbed my reflection 12 times So I held my breath Til my soul left my body for dead I ripped through the clouds To talk to the man in the sky I said "Take this for what it is I think you're a tad bit prejudice Against the ones like us that are searching for the answers" He said "Kid you don't know shit You should go back home and live In that quiet little town you left behind" I'm coming home Don't you cry (don't you cry) I'm coming home Just in time (just in time) I don't know what I've been told I will sell my soul To rock and roll I don't know where to go I have lost control Oh, no I don't know what I've been told I will sell my soul To rock and roll I don't know where to go I have lost control Oh, no I don't know what I've been told I will sell my soul To rock and roll I don't know where to go I have lost control Oh, no I don't know what I've been told I will sell my soul To rock and roll I don't know where to go I have lost control Oh, no I'm wide, I'm wide awake at night
And my mind's preoccupied and the silence won't reside Or resolve the feelings that exist, because it's easy to dismiss And it's harder to get hurt. And I wish that I was stronger than the people that you meet, And I wish that you were lost without me. And though the more I think about it the easier it seems, I'll be just fine, so here's to moving forward. Were we made as corresponding shapes? Our two pieces tassellate Were we designed to fit as one? And it is with patience that I wait As these romantic notions take my dignity and tact. And I wish that I was stronger than the people that you meet, And I wish that you were lost without me. And though the more I think about it the easier it seems , I'll be just fine so here's to moving forward. And as the sun sets on this now, You'll be the one I thought about. And as the sun sets on this now, You'll be the one I thought about. And I wish that I was stronger than the people that you meet, And I wish that you were lost without me. And though the more I think about it the easier it seems , I'll be just fine so here's to moving forward. So the lie now is my weapon Like a bush dried withered in the sun With this spark I'll go up in flames. I'd lay my guts out but they're too small to see It's kinda cute how I pretend to be Everything but the instrument I am. Peace or happiness So let it enfold you A birth to life is what I'm after My first name won't be my last one Let the light just drip into your eyes. So it's true my words are contrived I tell lies just to get into your mind I'm as fake as a widow's smile. This mask of glass is what I choose to wear So I won't ever have the need to bear The total truth to anyone but me. Peace or happiness So let it enfold you A birth to life is what I'm after My first name won't be my last one Let the light just drip into your eyes. The light (the light) into (into) your eyes (your eyes) all night I'm just a bad actor stuck with a shitty script All of my lines are cheap and the cast is weak There was no music for the first time I got kissed There was no femme fatale, my mistress wasn't rich. So I've been formatted to fit your TV screen The film went straight to tape, I'll bow out quietly. So quietly. So quietly. Please do this now I beg Duct tape my arms and legs Throw me into the sea (Please save me, please save me) [x2] Now watch the waves eat me Setting my cold heart free I'll wash ashore in weeks (You can't save me, can't save me) Now watch the waves eat me Setting my cold heart free I'll wash ashore in weeks (You can't save me, you can't save me now) Note: This song was actually inspired by a poem by Charles Bukowski. You can read it here:
Do you know that i could never leave you?
And you know i could never beat you? And if i, if i could never find you Never mind, i would not forget you Can i stay alive forever? Can i stay alive forever? Can i stay alive forever? Forever Can i feel a chemical reaction? Because i feel a hideous attraction Could we share a poison apple? Could it be maniacal and awful? Can i stay alive forever? Can i stay alive forever? Can i stay alive forever? Forever Forever Stay alive forever Forever Stay alive forever Stay alive forever Stay alive forever Stay alive forever Stay alive forever Dès le premier jour
Ton parfum enivra mon amour Et dans ces instants J'aimerais être comme toi par moment Mais depuis ce jour Je n'ai qu'un seul et unique regret My wing tips waltz across naive, wood floors they creek, innocently down the stairs, drag melody, my percussive feet serve cobweb headaches as a, matching set of marching clocks, the slumbering apparitions that they've come to wake up, Here I am composing of burlesque, Out of where they rest their necks, Sunken in their splintered cradles And ramshackle hands, They asked for it, as a girl, You have set your heart on, Haunting me forever from the start, It's never silent, Ever since we met, I only shoot up with your perfume, It's the only thing, That makes me feel as good as you do, Ever since we met, I've got just one regret to live through, And that one regret is you, How does a heart love, If no one has noticed its presence, And where does it go? Trembling hands play my heart, Like the drum but, The beats gone and lost in the show, You have set your heart on, Haunting me forever from the start, It's never silent, Ever since we met, I only shoot up with your perfume, It's the only thing, That makes me feel as good as you do, Ever since we met, I've got just one regret to live through, and I regret ever letting you go, Ever since we met, I only shoot up with your perfume, It's the only thing, That makes me feel as good as you do, Ever since we met, I've got just one regret to live through, and that one regret is you, Mona Lisa please to please ya (my one regret is you) Mona Lisa please to please ya (and that one regret is you) Mona Lisa please to please ya |
