1.
Light Pours Through Blinds Onto bodies I thought I'd never see you in this light It's quick push to shove And we're gonna hurt someone My fingers of guilt Are spidering up your spine But it feels awesome outside What else would I be doing with my life What else would I do with my time
2.
Never wanted to reverse Never wanted you to be the victim Never wanted to leave Wanted to avoid being statistics Wasted time Verses Time wasted Bitter drinks I've already tasted
3.
Hell knows no fury Like the mid twenties Being desperate and unfulfilled Bodies full of smoke and indecision You came this way, didn't you? What did you expect? How many times can you waste time on promises not kept? Find the girl with the chaser Find the kid with the bottle We're all friends here We're all role models
4.
Give me comfort Rest my head Not much to see when you're twisting my neck Give me patience Give me time To not hate what you do with your life We won't forget But take pictures Discuss the good times I don't remember My back stays turned to keep you out from under my chin You live your life And keep me out of it
5.
Like thrown hundred dollar bills off a burning bridge Figure out what you'll do when you hit the bottom Well, you're at the bottom Constantly living up to your neck I'm sure You'll sink before the shore Used Loved Ones A crew of shit friends Sink with the ones that you did in
6.
build your monuments. cut your ribbons. exalt the privileged. silence the victims. we mask the truth and waltz with lies. look at the facts through blind mens' eyes. when will we finally carry a torch. and who will be the ones to light it? no matter what they tell you, we only have this once. you will be judge for your actions. not by god, but by time itself.
7.
the path behind me is strewn with broken dreams of broken girls who have since become women. lying to themselves and their lovers. feigned content is the highest form of self-corruption. you are all already dead.
8.
if he wasn't watching, if it was just you and i, and the trees, and the ground, and the sky. i think you know the answer, and i know the truth. (i know the fucking truth). i think it's why you're still standing here. (with the trees, the ground, the sky, and me). and these birds, that will never stop singing, because this will never truly end. i know, i know, i know.
9.
nauseous, light-headed. broken and hopeless. is this what we've been chasing? aimless but hopeful. faithful but desolate. cautious but self-destructing. we contradict ourselves on our own terms. we live like thieves, but we'll die like kings.
10.
i hadn't dreamt in years, or maybe i just never really slept. now my subconscious dances through the moments i enjoyed, and begs for those i never will. my pride, it gets in the way when i'm awake. and fear keeps me from learning through my mistakes. when i was young, i used to pray for visionless sleep. now i never pray and only see you in my dreams. and i don't know if god exists, but if he does he's a spiteful mother fucker. he twists my arms and pulls my legs, and my limbs used to be the only things i could trust. now all i have is my mind. but the white pills and white wine make it hard to stay between the white lines. and i may be self-addicted, but at least i'm self-aware. please, haunt me tonight while i sleep away the latest trends. the love and hate i felt for you, it breaks, but never bends. submit my pride, my ego has died, so please live inside, of my head tonight. my limbs, my limbs, i trusted you.
