Bite your lip it's so misleading The tension breaks when it's all repeating But I'll shrug it off, forget it, wait until the weekend. "She's been toying with her demons It's just that basic..." Pretend, pretend, To fall for every trumped up thing he says.... You wait until the weekend to rhyme with every reason… Splashing number five in sackcloth and ashes. (But you don't have the guts to pass convenience) I should have planned for the least expected (When dealing with intemperance) Was it worth everything you got (Given what you got) Was it worth everything you got? (Given what you got) Was it worth everything you got? (Was it worth it?) I'll hold this tongue and scrape along, Painting portraits of a sequence gone wrong. (Hints of purple and red voice the dissidence in my head) As you’re crawling back again you’re crawling back again. The truth appears distant and near When you're locking eyes with a funhouse mirror (It's simply so severe...) (But you don't have the guts to pass convenience) I should have planned for the least expected (When dealing with intemperance) Was it worth everything you got (Given what you got) Was it worth everything you got? (Given what you got) Was it worth everything you got? (Was it worth it?) Well I've been thinking... I'm not funding you incentives Unless you're die to come clean Let's put this in perspective... Stop begging, stop begging... Was it worth everything you got? (you don't have the guts to pass convenience) Was it worth everything you got? Was it worth everything you got? (I should have planned for the least expected) Was it worth everything you got? Was it worth everything you? (Given what you got?) Was it worth everything you got? (Given what you got?) Was it worth it?

Have another it can only help I see my fears drown at the bottom of Bottom of a well Life never turns out the way you plan, So just go with the cards in your hand And play the best you can A deep seed burns inside The only thing keeping me alive, Is this pint in my hand. It takes me away to distant lands Where I climb back up the rope I’m not being taken as a constant joke Your skewed occipital lobe of so long ago My life comes together while falling apart, I can’t sleep with the holes in my heart I try to fill them but just confuse I try so hard to be self-righteous But I regret swallowing indecisiveness From all the outside thoughts Infused I can’t win and I can’t lose. I lay and curse the twilight In hopes I fall asleep tonight A deep seed burns inside The only thing keeping me alive Is this pint in my hand It takes me away to distant lands Where I climb back up the rope I’m not being taken as a constant joke Your skewed occipital lobe of so long ago I try but I just can’t find my way Holding onto hopes for better days A deep seed burns inside The only thing keeping me alive Is this pint in my hand It takes me away to distant lands Where I climb back up the rope I’m not being taken as a constant joke Your skewed occipital lobe of so long ago.

You’re waking, you’re stirring The reality keeps recurring Life moves in a rapid pace You couldn’t, you shouldn’t Absolutely sure you wouldn’t in plain sight of a bullet? Can you remember what was once crystalized? Cut ties with everything you had in mind… Cut ties…channel focus towards the prize. Veins like twisting rivers wrap around your eyes. Can you externalize want with your life? Out of sight, out of mind for one more night. The sun will rise eventually…eventually. Whatcha see, whatcha see? Anatomy rotting at the seams (I won’t forget…) Whatcha see, whatcha see? Desire tearing at my dreams Whatcha see, whatcha see? Anatomy rotting at the seams (I won’t forget…) Whatcha see whatcha see? Desire right in front of me This fate’s forlorn, this fate’s forlorn This fate’s forlorn (What’s the bridge you’ve ever burning?) This fate’s forlorn, this fate’s forlorn, This fate’s forlorn (Failed signs are everywhere you turn.) Let it burn, let it burn, Let it burn Sing with me our time is now Let the lights fade in and out. Sing with me until you’re sleep and sound For all out days sing Just sing…just sing

I'm not convinced that a washcloth smeared your lipstick. The shadows on your mattress have a way of making sense. Dress to impress, (tarnish Sunday's best) Given all that you suggest, It's not so picturesque. I can't believe just what I've seen. I can't believe... Woah-oh oh oh oh oh Woah-oh oh woah-oh oh oh I can't believe just what I've seen. I can't believe... Woah-oh oh oh oh oh Woah-oh oh woah-oh oh oh Well you've got nothing left to lose, just keep those motivations masqueraded by cheap perfume. You've got nothing left to lose, just keep those motivations masqueraded by cheap perfume. Oh you'd never be caught dead with bright red paint in the palm of your hands... (How many photos will it take to develop an acquired taste for change in scenery?) Is it still not sinking in? Is it still not sinking in? I can't believe just what I've seen. I can't believe... Woah-oh oh oh oh oh Woah-oh oh woah-oh oh oh I can't believe just what I've seen. I can't believe... Woah-oh oh oh oh oh Woah-oh oh woah-oh oh oh She's zero to sixty in three seconds.. Living with restless resentment. "It's better left a well-kept secret" Well here's to resurrecting unfinished business... "Don't lose sleep over this or me." I'm caught between the Angel in your eyes and the devil underneath. I can't believe just what I've seen. I can't believe... Woah-oh oh oh oh oh Woah-oh oh woah-oh oh oh I can't believe just what I've seen. I can't believe... Woah-oh oh oh oh oh Woah-oh oh woah-oh oh oh

I can't rest this heavy head When it's ravished in reflection... Wayward winds in the vanguard are chomping at the bit. We're vessels lost in transit, Stranded in the heart of the Atlantic. Feeding off distraction... Provided by a rose-colored tint. Cast aside the tides hinged in our eyes. A fire burns inside, but the flame's receding. Cast aside the tides hinged in our eyes. Coincide with the moonlight waxing. (Well I can't breathe with such uncertainy Don't beg or plead-we're lost at sea). If the vulture sings it's song, While you're staring at the wreckage. Just remember that I'm hanging onto vacant conversations.... Our love's spent, you should have stayed patient... Abandon ship, this fatal tryst in sinking to abyss. Cast aside the tides hinged in our eyes. A fire burns inside, but the flame's receding. Cast aside the tides hinged in our eyes. Coincide with a moonlight waxing. (Well I can't breathe with such uncertainty, Don't beg or plead-we're lost at sea). Maybe I'll be content with this emptiness, Only to cherish the benefits of emotions such short-lived. Cast aside the tides hinged in our eyes. A fire burns inside, but the flame's receding. Cast aside the tides hinged in our eyes. (Maybe one day I'll be content with this emptiness) Coincide with the moonlight waxing. (Only to cherish the benefits of emotions such short-lived.)

Oh, isn't it divine that I'm feeling half alive? You and I, let's share these shots of iodine.
