1.Gasoline Kisses for Everyone
I think I'd be lying
if I said I don't enjoy this.
waking up soaked in sweat
wondering who you're laying with.
the sinking center in me
dips to reach that perfect place
where we've all been trapped before,
caught living in the life you missed...
the reason, had to leave,
held your breath and couldn't see.
missed the reason, had to leave,
held your breath and couldn't see.
I hear songs of this cancer coming on.
I love the sound of your voice breaking off,
so I sing along until you're gone
and out of this canvas we paint this song.
I think I'd be lying
if I said I didn't miss this.
slipping off the edge of the bed,
I know I could kiss you better than that.
one more try, one more goodnight.
don't pull away so fast.
10 more seconds is all I ask.
you missed the reason, had to leave,
held your breath and couldn't see.
missed the reason, had to leave,
held your breath and couldn't see.
I hear songs of this cancer coming on.
I love the sound of your voice breaking off,
so I sing along until your gone
and out of the canvas we paint this song.
one more try, one more goodnight.
one more try, one more goodnight.
so bad, this feeling never catches up
and your threat are the arms
of a sunburned boy you love.
I know what you're all about now,
I know where the engine runs out.
I know what you're all about now,
I know where the engine runs out.
so I sing along until your gone,
sing along until your gone.
(I think her away)
2.Day One and Counting
A voice says dont bother screaming
Day one has come and gone away
Served on this diet of needles and knives
Convincing myself to stay alive
Are these the eyelides you tried to save?
(I drink to forget your face)
We all know what goes on,
And we know justt what you've done
It is even worth it to say im sorry, just because
Such simple things I missm in spite of all this
Is it even worth it to say im sorry, just move on
A voice says dont bother leaving,
Day one has come and gone away
Choking on hopes, and words I never wrote,
I'll try to survive on this long night
On this warm night the taste gets worst
The lips I thought I touched now just hurt
Come on and catch me, I know that you want me
It's written all over your obvious arms
The smell of your breath
The feel of your neck
The scent of assurance spilt over my neck
3.Pomona for Empuse
Are we still connected or was it just a plot,
to get yourself off, and hope that I'm not
listening when it happens.
(she said)
I can't begin to say how sorry I am,
I never ment for this to happen.
Sun goes down, the knife come out..
I'm on the island you left me on,
such a sickend strip of sand;
no lifeboats, no getting off.
We give up, we give in, we take what we can;
we're trapped deep without a second chance.
we give up, we give in, withought blinking;
Jesus Christ, what was I thinking?
Are these lungs desperatley filled by someone
charming and sad,
because you know your lover,
won't be back?
Are these words useless and absurd?
Such a sight of this,
makes the harbor and the water sick.
Shall I stay rejected or in a drunken song?
Like a bitter old man sunk in his fangs.
Try not to get caught.
(he said)
I know you didn't miss the sound that I made;
it's simple, it's sad, and easy to fake.
Live wits down, the knife come out.
I'm on the island you left me on,
such a sickend strip of sand;
no lifeboats, no getting off.
We give up, we give in, we take what we can;
we're trapped deep without a second chance.
We give up, we give in, withought thinking;
I'll be there the night you go down.
Are these lungs desperatley filled by someone
starving and sad,
because you know your lover,
won't be back?
Are these words useless and absurd?
Such a sight of this,
makes the harbor and the water sick.
I understand your reasons,
for this awkward dance.
I'd leave me, too,
if I thought I had the slightest chance.
I cry loud to these sheets they grip back tight.
Fall asleep to the sound of my own life.
If I drink this bottle fast enough,
4.Conversations With Emily
Hey pretty, what's on your mind
Nothing here, an endless night
Fed up and sick, tired of me
My thin boy voice ruins everything
Oh sweetheart, don't say such things
We don't know who's listening
Don't talk, don't smile
Just silently walk on by
My emily says 'oh ladd
What has she done
To my darling innocent boy?
My favorite late night someone'
I wish you were here to kiss me
And scream damnit ladd I need you back
Emily rolls over in bed and says
'is it really so bad?'
Hey pretty are you secretly sad?
Questions I dare not ask
Fed up and sick, tired of this
Such simple things I miss
Oh sweetheart, don't say such things
We don't know who's listening
The only thing that can fill this gap
Is the one who doesn't want me back
My emily says 'oh ladd
How long can this last?'
As long as it takes to get that attention
So safe at last
I wish you were here to hold me
And scream 'damnit ladd, I need you back'
Emily rolls over in bed and says
'you don't want that
So here's my advice to you
This should've turned out different
But it didn't, so get over it
But don't you find it reassuring?
That one constellation glowing
My darling boy, it won't snow where she is going'
5.Which Wrist First
Don't let me shut this light
For the killer in my head
Needs a signal to prove that I am not dead just yet
But burned out and going blue
The salt is set with open wounds
Doused and fresh
I can open my eyes for a second
And hope the sails catch us
I can open my eyes for a second
And hope that you just won't hear this
A shipwreck
An anchor
A slowly sinking sailor
Somehow, someway
Someones bound to stay
It's in this grave we lay
Watery and saved
Just act as if I'm gone
And decaying in my room
I hold a shadow as close as a silver ghost
Grasps onto an image known to him as you
At this fast rate, I'll be lucky if I'm dead by morning
I can open my eyes for a second
And hope the sails catch us
I can open my eyes for a second
And hope that you just won't hear this
A shipwreck
An anchor
A slowly sinking sailor
Somehow, someway
Someones bound to stay
It's in this grave we lay
Watery and saved
One touch one taste
It's enough to make you stay away
Tonight I'm spent
Pretend this razor is your lips
You're finding ways to kiss
(Ways to kiss me)
Deeply on the wrists
I loved what I had
It's impossible to get it back
I loved what I had
It's impossible to get that back
It's in this grave we lay
Watery and saved
(To get that back)
It's in this grave we lay
I hope that you just won't hear this
6.Numerous Murders
All night long
I am watching you connect the gaps and cracks which make me
famous
I'll pull this knot out from my throat
Recite the reasons how not to choke
(You are the one that keeps me far from asking)
Just sit back
Try not to react to the tone you use that makes me kill us
You cut the ropes that make me slack
And free the tension around my neck
(You are the one that keeps me far from asking)
(Breathing believing)
An unexpected expectancy
An ending an opening
A catch phrase uncaught but still complete
A smile and a grin
The perfect moment
The bitter end
Far from now
You will hear me say 'I'm addicted to the sleep you're taking'
I'll cut my throat to make this right
And bleed all the words I've left inside
(You are the one that keeps me far from asking)
All this talk
Has given in to ache from the noise you use that makes me
jealous
I'll cut my throat to make this right
And bleed all the words I've left inside
(You are the one that keeps me far from asking)
(Breathing believing)
An unexpected expectancy
An ending an opening
A catch phrase uncaught but still complete
A smile and a grin
The perfect moment
The bitter end
Free the tension around my neck
Bleed all the words I've left inside
Free the tension bleed all the words I've left inside
Bleed all the words around my neck
(Breathing believing)
An unexpected expectancy
An ending an opening
A catch phrase uncaught but still complete
A smile and a grin
The perfect moment
The bitter end
7.Dear Sweet Impaler
The thin part is feeling so suffered.
This bedroom, a voice, and a matress.
It says 'Don't sleep, don't think, just drink'.
You'll find yourself faster when passed out cold.
(Where are you, tonight?)
This is the last time I fear your face;
along with my brother,
they won't hear me say 'Where are you, tonight?'.
Wrapped up in some bedroom,
screaming for dear sweet you.
The worst part is being so desperate,
this basement, a noose, and a casket.
I want to feel that warmth again,
assurance of you, asleep in my head..
(Where are you, tonight?)
This is the last time I fear your face;
along with my brother,
they won't hear me say 'Where are you, tonight?'.
Wrapped up in some bedroom,
screaming for dear sweet you.
So why not, end it all in one shot?
Never ment anything, I've ever had.
It won't lose it's grip, and stop kissing my neck.
Desperation sets in, holding me close, much like you did.
And every line has a face, a voice that's the same.
My dear sweet impailer... it's all you this time.
It's there to remind me, how much I hate, this, life.
I remember you laughing and leaving,
slamming my door, to the sound of my screaming,
'Don't leave just yet, I didn't mean any of what I just said.
I swear by my wrists that we're better than this;
much more to me than words in a notebook.'
You sigh and say 'I'm through',
(You sigh and say 'I'm through')
and god damn you for breathing, 'I love you'.
I love you, I love you, I love you.
8.Your Latest Victim
Throw me hard so I hit the concrete
Scream words that you never did mean
Even I can't stand this evidence, it's clear so clear
The Ringing in my ears won't stop
and you've been smiling all along
(Burnt Out)
She's in it for the nicotine, boys
More poised than perfect, not worth saving only leaving
She's in it for the nicotine, boys
More poised than perfect, not worth saving only leaving
Break me up so my heart is shattered
Three words that you never did mean
Even I can't stand this evidence, it's clear so clear
The ringing in my ears won't stop
and you've been laughing all along
(Burnt Out)
She's in it for the nicotine, boys
More poised than perfect, not worth saving only leaving
She's in it for the nicotine, boys
More poised than perfect, not worth saving only leaving
I can sit in this room and breathe abused
I can do without the warmth from you
But your knifelike smile needs a victim
Worth your while
She's in it for the nicotine, boys
More poised than perfect, not worth saving only leaving
She's in it for the nicotine, boys
More poised than perfect, not worth saving only leaving
I can do what stab wounds never do
I can peel the skin back just for you
Beautiful you, perfect pretty gutless and cute
A lonely victim (*also played behind the chorus*)
9.This Would Be Easier If You Would Just Die
If you can hear this
And I know you won't
The blood cut from our throats
Echoes where we deserve to go
Straight into that red man's hands
Alive with fire and one last chance
What would your sisters do if they happend upon the real you?
See what you have
You're better than this
Selfish and sad
Don't forget what you had
See what you have
You're better than this
You're better than this
If you can hear this
And I know you can't
The blood cut from our veins
Echoes spelling out both our names
Straight into our aching chests
Alive with fear and cut up necks
What would your sisters do if they happened upon the real you?
See what you have
You're better than this
Selfish and sad
Don't forget what you had
See what you have
You're better than this
You're better than this
Slip into sleep
Don't even breathe
Dive into your bedroom
And your one sure thing
Slip into sleep
Don't even breathe
Dive into your bedroom
And your one sure thing
Can someone say
You're safe, it's going to be okay
Desire means we don't need anything
Just a fractured hint that we knew we were something
Desire means we don't need anything
Just a fractured hint that we knew we were something
See what you have
(See what you have)
You're better than this
10.Codex Avellum
Let's give up
Let's give in
Desperate, pathetic, the same place I've been
Sing all night
Sing all night
Sing all night long
I had it, a feeling of failure sucked dry
Lost like a camera's wide open eye
We've lost it a feeling for staying alive
Free from infection
Free from this life
(Some days)
Some days slip while others come crashing in
(Some days)
Some days...
I had it, a feeling of failure sucked dry
Lost like a camera's wide open eye
We've lost it a feeling for staying alive
Free from infection
Free from this life
Sing all night
Sing all night
Sing all night long
I had it, a feeling of failure sucked dry
Lost like a camera's wide open eye
We've lost it a feeling for staying alive
Free from infection
Free from this life
(Free from this life!)
Let's give up!
Let's give in!
Let's give up!
Let's give in!
Let's give up!
Let's give in!
Let's give up!
Let's give in!
Some days slip
Some days slip
Sing all night
Sing all night
Sing all night long
Sing all night
Sing all night
Sing all night long
