This is what I brought you, this you can keep
This is what I brought, you may forget me
I promise to depart, just promise one thing
Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep

This is what I brought you, this you can keep
This is what I brought, you may forget me
I promise you my heart, just promise to sing
Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep

Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep

This is what I thought, I thought you'd need me
This is what I thought, so think me naive
I'd promise you a heart, you'd promise to keep
Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep

Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep
Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep

I'll lay me down tonight
Much further down
Swim in the calm tonight
This art does drown

What follows me as the whitest lace of light
Will swallow whole, just begs to be imbrued
What follows has led me to this place
Where I belong with all erased

What follows

All insects sing tonight
The coldest sound
I'd send God's grace tonight
Could it be found?

What follows me as the whitest lace of light
Will swallow whole, just begs to be imbrued
What follows has led me to this place
Where I belong with all erased

I'll lay me down tonight
Much further down
Watch stars go out tonight
On sinking ground

I'll lay me down

What follows me as the whitest lace of light
Will swallow whole, just begs to be imbrued
What follows has led me to this place
Where I belong with all erased

What follows will swallow whole

Listen when I say, when I say it's real
Real life goes undefined, why must you be so missable?
Everything you take makes me more unreal
Real lines are undefined, how can this be so miserable?

Under the summer rain
I burned away
Under the summer rain, burn
You turned away

Listen, I can't make, make a sound or feel
Feel fine, I kissed the lies, why must they be so kissable?
Listen as I break, break the fourth wall's seal
Gorgeous eyes shine suicide, when will we be invisible?

Under the summer rain
I burned away
Under the summer rain, burn
We burned away

Under the summer rain
I burned away
Under the summer rain, burn
You turned away

This is the fall, this is the long way down
And our lives look smaller now, and our lives look so small
This is the fall, this is the long way down
And our lives look smaller now, and our lives look so small

Under the summer rain
I burned away
Under the summer rain, burn
We burned away

Under the summer rain, burn
I burned away
Under the summer rain, burn
You turned away

So, I'm feeling much worse now
You're better, you're better
Your designer drug
Won't work, won't work for me

Connect to a three volt
I hope your battery dies
How could you run
On such, on such voltage?

All the same, I remain
The one to blame and I'm
Demonized, purified
Justified as you let yourself show

So now you'll love these screams, what's left of me
Don't speak
Love these screams like I do
My name

As the infinite stops cold
Just nine and the six are gone
Guess I was the one to
Ride that, ride that dirty ride

That is turning so fast now
I cannot, cannot hold on
But at this pace
Who would, oh, who'd want to?

All the same, I remain
The one to blame and I'm
Demonized, purified
Justified as you let yourself show

So now you'll love these screams, what's left of me
Don't speak
Love these screams like I do
My name

Don't ever speak my name

Don't ever speak my name again, don't ever speak it
Don't ever speak my name again, don't speak, don't speak
Don't speak my
Don't speak my name

So now you'll love these screams, what's left of me
Don't speak
Love these screams like I do
My name

Walked into our world and made horrible sounds
I can still hear them today
Strangely, they seem beautiful now
Though they outlast my love

Still, each time I always meant
Every word, every one
Though, in time they finally bent
Every word, every one, every word

"I will wait for you"
She said, "endlessly"
"I will wait for you"
So spoke misery

I returned to you but found my empty home
The radio told me to stay
As it burned down, I sang alone
You will outlast my love

Still, each time I always meant
Every word, every one
Though, in time they finally bent
Every word, every one, every word

"I will wait for you"
She said, "endlessly"
"I will wait for you"
So spoke misery

I have been waiting for you
Biting as you taught me to
I have come to relieve you
Of life and love

I will wait for you
I will wait

"I will wait for you"
She said, "endlessly"
"I will wait for you"
So spoke misery

And I will bite
Straight through
As I wait for you, dear
Endlessly

One at a time,
Constants becomes surreal
One at a time,
Heart attacks are concealed
I can see that I
Lose the joys of life
one at a time
Suicides are revealed
You will see that I lost another life
But tonight

I'll let you tear it up
If you don't wake me up
But if you tear it,
We can't repair it
So please don't wake me till someone cares
now no one cares

One at a time
I watch them all forget
One at a time
I'm lost in little deaths
It's the place that I
I forget my life
Like tonight

I'll let you tear it up
If you don't wake me up
But if you tear it,
We can't repair it
So please don't wake me till someone cares
now no one cares

Will the flood behind me
Put out the fire inside me?
Will the flood behind me
Put out the fire inside me?

I'll let you tear it up...
Oh Oh Oh
I'll let you break it up
Oh Oh Oh
If you don't wake me up
Oh Oh Oh
But if you tear it
Oh Oh Oh
We can't repair it
Oh Oh Oh
So please don't wake me
Oh Oh Oh
Till someone cares,
Now no one cares...cares

I'll let you tear it up
If you don't wake me up
Cause it's apparent
That you don't care and
It's nothing to me
Cause I don't care
Now no one cares

I, I came here by day,
But I left here in darkness
And found you, found you on the way.

But now, it is silver and silent.
It is silver and cold.
You in somber resplendence,
I hold...

Your sins into me,
Oh, my beautiful one.
Your sins into me.
As a rapturous voice escapes
I will tremble a prayer
and I'll beg for forgiveness.
Your sins into me,
Your sins into me
Oh, my beautiful one.

Light, like the flutter of wings,
Feel your hollow voice rushing
Into me as you're longing to sing.
So I, I will paint you in silver.
I will wrap you in cold.
I will lift up your voice as I sink.

Your sins into me,
Oh, my beautiful one, now
Your sins into me.
As a rapturous voice escapes
I will tremble a prayer
And I'll beg for forgiveness.
Your sins into me,
Your sins into me


Cold in life's throes.
I'll fall asleep for you.
Cold in life's throes.
I only ask you turn away.
Cold in life's throes.
I'll fall asleep for you.
Cold in life's throes
I only ask you turn
As you seep into me,
Oh, my beautiful one, now...

Your sins into me,
Oh, my beautiful one.
Your sins into me.
As a rapturous voice escapes
I will tremble a prayer
And I'll beg for forgiveness.
Your sins into me,
Your sins into me

Your sins into me,
Oh, my beautiful one, now
Your sins into me.
As a rapturous voice escapes
I will tremble a prayer
And I'll beg for forgiveness.
Your sins into me,
Your sins into...
Your sins into me
Your sins into me,
Oh my beautiful one!

Will you join me in this dance, this dance of misery?
Cradled in imposs- impossibility
Swooning, I am swept away
Swept off my feet, with step by step by step
We take the lead as drop by drop, we start to bleed

Oh, we dance in misery, and we dance on, and we dance on
Oh, we dance in misery, lost in the arms of our misery
Oh, we dance in misery, and we dance on, and we dance on
Swept off our feet by our misery, we're swept into the shadows

Will you lend yourself to beauty that will horrify?
Let me hide within your black, the still inside your eyes
Deafened, caught within a cry
So sensual, as step by step by step, I separate
As breath to breath, as I suffocate

Oh, we dance in misery, and we dance on, and we dance on
Oh, we dance in misery, lost in the arms of our misery
Oh, we dance in misery, and we dance on, and we dance on
Swept off our feet by our misery, we're swept into the shadows

So who will follow, who is the lead?
I know I'll leave a stain because I bleed
As we dance, we all dance
We all have no chance in this horrid romance

Oh, we dance in misery, and we dance on, and we dance on
Oh, we dance in misery, lost in the arms of our misery
Oh, we dance in misery, and we dance on, and we dance on
Swept off our feet by our misery, we're swept into the shadows

I cannot leave here, I cannot stay
Forever haunted, more than afraid
Asphyxiate on words I would say
I'm drawn to a blackened sky as I turn blue

There are no flowers, no, not this time
There will be no angels gracing the lines
Just these stark words I find

I'd show a smile but I'm too weak
I'd share with you, could I only speak
Just how much this hurts me

I cannot stay here, I cannot leave
Just like all I loved, I'm make believe
Imagined heart, I disappear
Seems no one will appear here and make me real

There are no flowers, no, not this time
There will be no angels gracing the lines
Just these stark words I find

I'd show a smile but I'm too weak
I'd share with you, could I only speak
Just how much this hurts me

I'd tell you how it haunts me
I'd tell you how it haunts me
Cuts through my day and sinks into my dreams

I'd tell you how it haunts me
Cuts through my day and sinks into my dreams
You don't care that it haunts me

There are no flowers, no, not this time
There will be no angels gracing the lines
Just these stark words I find

I'd show a smile but I'm too weak
I'd share with you, could I only speak
Just how much this hurts me

Just how much you...

Of late, it's harder just to go outside
To leave this dead space, with hatred so alive

Writhing with sickness
Thrown into banality
I decay, killed by the weakness
But forced to return

Turn it off

I watch the stars as they fall from the sky
I held a fallen star and it wept for me, dying
I feel the fallen stars encircle me
Now as they cry

Out there, so quickly, grows malignant tribes
Post-human extinction excels unrecognized

Feeling surrounded
So bored with mortality
I decay, all of this hatred
Is fucking real

Turn it on

I watch the stars as they fall from the sky
I held a fallen star and it wept for me, dying
I feel the fallen stars encircle me
Now as they cry

It won't be all right
Despite what they say
Just watch the stars tonight as they
As they disappear, disintegrate

And I disintegrate
Cause this hate is fucking real
And I hope to shade the world
As stars go out and I disintegrate

It won't be all right
Despite what they say
Just look to the sky
As stars go out

Hope unknown, sometimes just waking is surreal
I pass right through the nameless ones
I know that hope's unknown, sometimes the water feels so real
As I walk through it fills my lungs, my god I'm drowning

This day never seems to end
This pain, never
This day never seems to end
This rage I cannot let go

I hear them calling my name
I feel them gnawing out holes
All throughout my flawless soul

I hear them calling my name
I feel them gnawing out holes
All throughout my flawless soul

So alone, sometimes I swear that I can hear
The taunting of the voiceless ones
I fear that I alone fear those who finally ceased to feel
That they're alone inside this place, I am the misplaced

This pain, never
This day never seems to end
This rage I cannot let go

I hear them calling my name
I feel them gnawing out holes
All throughout my flawless soul

I hear them calling my name
I feel them gnawing out holes
All throughout my flawless soul

Now every face looks familiar
Found every face would melt away until now
Everyone, do you know?
I know your deception

Now every face looks familiar
Found every face would melt away until now
Everyone, do you know?
I know your deception

I hear them calling my name
I feel them gnawing out holes
All throughout my flawless soul

I hear them calling my name
I feel them gnawing out holes
All throughout my flawless soul

Warn your warmth to turn away
Here it's December every day
Press your lips to the sculptures and surely you'll stay
Love like winter, for of sugar and ice I am made, I am made

It's in the blood, it's in the blood
I met my love before I was born
He wanted love, I taste of blood
He bit my lip and drank my warmth from years before

She exhales vanilla lace
I barely dreamt her yesterday, yesterday
Read the lines in the mirror through the lipstick trace
Por siempre, she said "it seems you're somewhere far away" to his face

It's in the blood, it's in the blood
I met my love before I was born
She wanted love, I taste of blood
She bit my lip and drank my warmth from years before

Love like winter

It's in the blood, it's in the blood
I met my love before I was born
He wanted love, I taste of blood
He bit my lip and drank my warmth from years before

Let's admire the pattern forming, murderous filigree
I'm caught in the twisting of the vine
Go ascend with ivy climbing, ignore and leave for me
The headstone crumbling behind

I can't help my laughter as she cries
My soul brings tears to angelic eyes

Let's amend the classic story, close it so beautifully
I'll let animosity unwind
Steal away the darkened pages hidden so shamefully
I'll still feel the violence of the lies

I can't stand my laughter as they cry
My soul brings tears to angelic eyes
And miles away my mother cries
Omnipotence, nurturing malevolence

Hey Miss Murder, can I?
Hey Miss Murder, can I?
Make beauty stay if I
Take my life?

With just a look, they shook
And heavens bowed before him
Simply a look can break your heart

The stars that pierce the sky
He left them all behind
We're left to wonder why
He left us all behind

Hey Miss Murder, can I?
Hey Miss Murder, can I?
Make beauty stay if I
Take my life?

Dreams of his crash won't pass
Oh, how they all adored him
Beauty will last when spiraled down

The stars that mystified
He left them all behind
And how his children cried
He left us all behind

Hey Miss Murder, can I?
Hey Miss Murder, can I?
Make beauty stay if I
Take my life?

What's the hook, the twist within this verbose mystery?
I would gladly bet my life upon it
That the ghost you love, your ray of light will fizzle out
Without hope

We're the empty set just floating through, wrapped in skin
Ever searching for what we were promised
Reaching for that golden ring, we'd never let go
Who would ever let us put our filthy hands upon it?

Hey Miss Murder, can I?
Hey Miss Murder, can I?
Make beauty stay if I
Take my life?
