Down the Drain
Never thought we’d see the end
Know its hanging round our necks with waking eyes
But I won’t be seen tonight
Almost found a way to keep the beast alive
In a stoic state
Around my way, in a comeback
Put your soles to the road
And leave it all behind
Always thought we’d meet again
Now you’re hanging round my neck with vacant eyes
Spitting broken teeth tonight
The most hellish way to wade into the white
In a stoic state
Around my way, in a comeback
Fill the hole in your heart
Another empty sunrise…..
Just letting you know, that we’ll be letting you go
Going out of your way, heading down the drain
2x
Got me going in circles again
As it all comes crashing down
Maybe I’ll see you around
Maybe I’ll see you heading down the drain
Chorus
Maybe someday I’ll see you circling down the drain, you got me thinking about it round and around in circles baby, heading down the drain
Hannah
You’re far away lost in a vision
As you cut away your flesh in ribbons
Your failsafe, your sneaky secret weapon, ready to bring you down
In a hollow way, your cemetery’s waiting, if you remember it
Seems really simple when you break it down to size
A thousand pieces
And if I could, I’d tell you that you were meant to fly
But we’re barely speaking
Streetlights
Sleep tight, the moon dips down below the streetlights
Days long forgotten seem to flee my dreams tonight
Try counting blessings
Streamline, internal options such a steep climb, iridescent overtones that scream by
And set the night on fire
If only to forget, the oaths we’ve taken
Once upon a lonely summer’s night, I can see it clearly!
Look west in the distance to the blood red sunset, we all come falling down
Six feet deep under the covers
I toss and turn a thousand times
The streetlights make an easy lover when there’s no one left to blame
When we got here alone- Without breaking stride
I’m running in circles on a free ride
Nothing more worthless than your staged dive off the Brooklyn Bridge tonight
When ten stories all come crashing
We got here alone to set the world on fire
We got here alone
We got here alone, we got no one left to blame
We got here alone without breaking
Ambulance
Can I call you an ambulance?
Can we share this dizzy dance and make our way to the hospital?
And I know your card is full of blood, soaked in the accident
That’s the first time that we met
And the condition is critical but I swear I’m hearing sirens baby
They say you’re coming to
Looks like you’re pulling thru
And you’re going to make it after all
I know this may seem strange
And I barely know your name
But you seem to have crashed into my heart
I fade away into blackness
With a warm and distant kiss, the morphine dripping like licorice
But I swear it was your lips that put me into the ICU
IV drips and breathing tubes
A twisted dream from a gurney bed, whoa, you got me falling apart
They say you’re coming to
Looks like you’re pulling thru
And you’re going to make it after all
I know this may seem strange
And I barely know your name
But you seem to have crashed into my heart
Frankenstein
The moon breaks on a face better left in the darkness
Grab your torches, cast your stones
Turn away, burn away any threat of existence
And avert your eyes! This monsters’ come to life!
Turning fate to the way that we wanted to make it
Practically breaking down the door
Go away, go away, Gotta leave it in secret
cause one may never know just what is waiting there in store
It’s in your room, in your closet
Like a monster hiding, you’re favorite Frankenstein
You pieced together singing “Woe!”
We’re making progress on a strict assembly line
Fallen victim to the product, become stricken by design,
From second guessing while the brave still scramble on
Sing a simple song and just forget about me
Taking a break from the world for a while
I think you’ll see what’s on my mind
I’m in your room, in your closet
Like a monster hiding, your favorite Frankenstein
You pieced together singing “Woe!”
We’re making progress on a strict assembly line
And your miles away from where anyone can hear your second guessing
While the brave still scramble on
Sing a simple song and just forget about me
Taking a break from the world for a while
Think you’ll see what’s on my mind
Taking a break from the world for a while
Missing you by my side
Avert your eyes, this monsters’ come to life
Putting the pieces together to shatter life
Beware for I am fearless! Therefore I am powerful
Beware for I am fearless putting the pieces together to shatter life
The triumph, the science, the tyrant and tormentor
The triumph, the science, putting the pieces together to shatter life
Open Fire
They may be tearing the walls down now
Hail to the man of the hour
The king of grains of sand is running out of time and sinking
Mr. rainy day is waiting to take on your parade
So here’s to bearing the crown
It makes a likely story, go on and tell it walking
You got em running for the aisles and breaking without warning
Taking away the pain if just for an instant
Break down, that’s when you open fire
They went to witness it all burn down
With tongues that lick like open fire
We sing, “Let’s burn it to the ground!”
I guess that rainy day was coming closer than they claimed
The lost art, the false spark inside combusting without warning
Go on and tell it walking
You got em running for the aisles, and breaking without warning
Taking away the pain if just for an instant
Knocked down, dragged out in open fire
I saw the lights grow quiet from a mile away
As the suns suddenly swallowed by the oncoming grey
Ashes to ashes, dust to decay
Wait for the whites of their eyes and then fire away
Words are Wind
Fooled again, battled overwhelming odds
Its you again, together this whole world is ours
I can see it in your eyes with all the stars
I chalked it up to accident, followed thru, due diligence
Its hanging on a whisper, hoping that the winter might just break the ice a little farther down the line
So I'll hold my breath and save whats left of us
Well I left it all to happenstance, brandishing malevolence
Sing a song of fission, sing us all an apathetic lullaby and then hang me out the dry
So I'll hold my breath and taste whats left of us
Then you say never again with wavering conviction
When will it end? Cause we're both just doing time
Never again, I don't think my heart can take it baby
This is the end of the line
Then you say, "we gotta both stop giving up"
The i say, "But its written on your face, the salty streaks just blur the lines
I've seen that smile turn to stone, now you only rock it once in a while"
Then you say, "Is this how its gonna be from now on?"
Then I say, "I'm not sure, but the whole thing brings me down"
Then you say, "It makes me sick just hearing you say....
Never again with wavering conviction
When will it end? Cause we're both just doing time
Never again, I dont think my heart can take it baby
This is the end of the line
one more time
Never again with wavering conviction
When will it end? Cause we're both just doing time
Never again, I dont think my heart can take it baby
This is the end of the line
But is this the end?
