I wake up at the end of a long, dark, lonely year
It's bringing out the worst in me
I hear your voice start breaking in fear
When the lights go down

And I still feel you looking over my shoulder
Your sinking guilt and approaching nightmare
And I know none of us will survive
Because I know everything

Alright

And my dear I need you to move a little faster
This second counts as the rest of your life
Your final word and an itchy finger
And then it's taken away

And we'll be beaten down without mercy or meaning
I turn my face to a careless skyline
I'm searching hard for a sign from heaven
But they've forgotten me here

You can just stop talking, I get it
I hear your silence loud and clear
I know it's barely a thought but it'll see us through
I'm only setting you free so just let it happen
Just let it happen, no need to fear
Yeah you can just stop talking, I get it

Sex, f*ck, and fluorescent lighting
A hollow point on an angry bullet
We're on the teeth of a crocodile
We're in the mouth of the gun

And sometimes at night I feel I'm just a broken vessel
An instrument with a darker purpose
I'm at the throat of the young and the helpless
Because they've got nothing to say

So you can just stop talking, I get it
I hear your silence loud and clear
I know it's barely a thought but it'll see us through
I'm only setting you free so just let it happen
Just let it happen, no need to fear
Yeah you can just stop talking, I get it

She's a pretty girl
She's always falling down
And I think I just fell in love with her
But she won't ever remember, remember

And I can always find her
At the bottom of a plastic cup
Drowning in drunk's insanity
That's all she'll really be good for

Quit crying your eyes out
Quit crying your eyes out
And baby, come on
Is there just something familiar about me ?
The past is only the future with the lights on
Quit crying your eyes out, baby

And she said :
I think we're running out of alcohol
And I hate this fucking town
And all my best friends will be the death of me
But they wont ever remember, remember

So please take me far away
Before I melt into the ground
And all my words get used against me
You sad and lonely girl

Quit crying your eyes out
Quit crying your eyes out
And baby, come on
Is there just something familiar about me ?
The past is only the future with the lights on
Quit crying your eyes out, baby

Quit crying your eyes out

Quit crying your eyes out
And baby, come on
Is there just something familiar about me ?
The past is only the future with the lights on
Quit crying your eyes out
Is there just something familiar about me ?
Quit crying your eyes out
The past is only the future with the lights on
Quit crying your eyes out, baby

3. When Your Heart Stops Beating

Turn it up I never wanna go home
I only wanna be part of your breakdown
She got caught by the four on the floor
I picked her up
And she'll never get let down

And now I can't stop
Thinking about it
All YOU people at the top
Don't know nothing about it

We don't give a fuck what the price is
So just leave us to our own devices
And we'll leave you alone

I'll be there when your heart stops beating
I'll be there when your last breath's taken away
In the dark when there's no one listening
In the times when we both get carried away
When we both get carried away

She says it all without a thought in her head
She says it all as she's pressed up against me
A little something just to take off the edge
A little more and I'll fall off the planet entirely

I'll be there when your heart stops beating
I'll be there when your last breath's taken away
In the dark when there's no one listening
In the times when we both get carried away
When we both get carried away

I'll be there when your heart stops beating
I'll be there when your last breath's taken away
In the dark when there's no one listening
In the times when we both get carried away

When we both get carried away
When we both get carried away
(I'll be there when your heart stops beating)
When we both get carried away
(In the dark when there's no one listening)
When we both get carried away

4. Little Death

Please sleep, my darling, sleep
Your cry for inspiration
Never reaches ears on distant stars
And every night our lonely planet
Slides across the universe
And I won't pretend I understand

Please sleep, my darling, sleep
Your death by information
Won't disturb the peace on distant stars
And even when you lock the doors
And slide behind the unlit shades
None of us are strangers anymore

Fall asleep with the windows open
Come to me with the worst you've said and done
You'll close your eyes and see me
A little death makes life more meaningful
I stand no chance at all

Please, sleep my darling, sleep
Your car crash in slow motion
Won't upset the pace on distant stars
And one by one the years of our lives
Stumble as the moments pass
So please hold on, so please hold on

So fall asleep with the windows open
Come to me with the worst you've said and done
You'll close your eyes and see me
A little death makes life more meaningful
I stand no chance at all

Please, sleep my darling, sleep
Please, sleep my darling, sleep

So fall asleep with the windows open
Come to me with the worst you've said and done
You'll close your eyes and see me
A little death makes life more meaningful
I stand no chance at all

Love
This is getting harder
And I can't seem to pick you out of the crowd
But you my dear
Have been discovered a liar (a liar)
And I'm afraid that this is building up for far too long (far too long)

And this is not the time or place for us to speak like this
Even if I had the thought I'd never dream of it
So dry your hollow eyes and let's go down to the water

In a different time or place the words could make more sense
In a perfect world the future wouldn't make a dent
So dry your hollow eyes and let's go down to the water

Even though it's the last time

Love
This is getting the best of me
And truth be told, you were the start of it all
Now you my dear might end up lonely (lonely)
Before you go there's something you should know (You should know)

And this is not the time or place for us to speak like this
Even if I had the thought I'd never dream of it
So dry your hollow eyes and let's go down to the water

In a different time or place the words could make more sense
In a perfect world the future wouldn't make a dent
So dry your hollow eyes and let's go down to the water

Even though it's the last time.

This is not the time or place for us to speak like this
Even if I had the thought I'd never dream of it
So dry your hollow eyes and let's go down to the water

In a different time or place the words could make more sense
In a perfect world the future wouldn't make a dent
So dry your hollow eyes and let's go down to the water

Please, let's not speak, don't breathe a word
Even though it's the last time

Please, let's not speak, don't breathe a word
Even though it's the last time

6. Lillian

The Place I Used To Live Made Me Feel Like A Tourist.
I Couldn't Co-exist With The Cold And Suspicious.
When The Last Remaining Light Was Starting To Filter,
It Seemed The Perfect Time To Step Into The Future.

Your Heart Is A Grave To Be Perfectly Honest
Your Mouth's A Smoking Gun.
And You Smile While You're Twisting The Knife In My Stomach
'Till Everything Is Gone.
Take All You Can From Me,
I've Got Weak Constitution.
I'm Led So Easily.
So Easily.

I Left It All Behind In The Dead Of Last Winter.
I Left It All Behind, But The Question Still Lingers.
So Long, Forgotten Friends,
No You Don't Know The Difference.
Between Love And Submission,
And I'm Not That Obedient.

Your Heart Is A Grave To Be Perfectly Honest
Your Mouth's A Smoking Gun.
And You Smile While You're Twisting The Knife In My Stomach
'Till Everything Is Gone.
Take All You Can From Me,
I've Got Weak Constitution.
I'm Led So Easily.
So Easily.

And She's Trying To Sleep It Off,
With Her Head On My Shoulder.
And I'm Trying To Keep It Out
Of My Thoughts When I Hold Her.

7. Cliff Diving

Hey Silly Girl, I Think I've Got A Thing For You,
From Late Nights Spent Driving In This Stolen Car.
The Years We Wasted Living In This Desert Town Haven't Broken Us So Far.

Hot Afternoons We Climbed Onto The Neighbor's House
Breathed Deep And Jumped Into A Waiting Sky.
Our Bare Feet Were Framed On The Horizon,
I Felt The Future In Your Eyes.

It Was The Promise Of Summer.
We Sealed It With A Kiss.
This Time I'll Do Things Proper,
How Did It Get To This?

Dear You, Tonight Let's Get Ahead Of Ourselves.
Because Now I Barely Can Remember,
Yesterday Stretched On For So Long,
Tomorrow Feels Like Forever.

My God You Know How Much I Needed This
These Days Are Filled With Such Disaster.
Sometimes I Think That Life Will Never Be The Same
Sometimes I Think That's The Answer.

And She Said
Here Comes The Promise Of Summer.
Let's Seal It With A Kiss.
This Time I'll Do Things Proper,
How Did We Get To This?

8. Interlude

This song is an instrumental.

9. Weatherman

So You Think You've Been Through It All.
But I Can't Help But Wonder How.
Yesterday I Found My Worst Regret.
I'll Hide It Away So No One Ever Knows.
I'm Dying.
I'm Trying To Leave.

Let Me Slip Away I'm Barely Holding On.
Every Now And Then I Feel The End Of Us.

I Never Meant To Say I'm Sorry.
And I'm Not Sad To See You Go.
We're Human Shapes Burnt On Concrete Walls.
These Days The Sun Don't Shine Here Anymore.

I Find It Pulling At Me.
A Sea Of Troubes Drowning.
It's Such A Shame To Feel You Drifting.

Let Me Slip Away I'm Barely Holding On.
Every Now And Then I Feel The End Of Us.
I Love The Way You Breathe Inside My Head.
But Something's Got To Change
I'm Barely Holding On.

I'm Barely Holding On.

10. No It Isn't

Please understand
This isn't just goodbye
This is I can't stand you
This is where the road crashed into the ocean
It rises all around me
And now we're barely breathing
A thousand faces we'll choose to ignore

Curse my enemies forever
Let's slit our wrists and burn down something beautiful
This desperation leaves me overjoyed ...
With fading lights that lead us past the lives that we destroy

I listen to you cry
I cry for less attention
But both my hands are tied
And I'm pushed into the deep end
I listen to you talk but talk is cheap
And my mouth is filled with blood
From trying not to speak
So search for an excuse
And someone to believe you
And for entrusting wounds
I'm empty with the need to

Curse my enemies forever
Let's slit our wrists and burn down something beautiful
This desperation is leaving me overjoyed
With fading lights that lead us past the lives that we destroy

Curse my enemies forever
Let's slit our wrists and burn down something beautiful
This desperation is leaving me overjoyed
With fading lights that lead us past the lives that we destroy

Please understand
Lay rotting where I fall
I'm dead from bad intentions
Suffocated and embalmed
And now all our dreams are cashed in
Swore you wouldn't lose then lost your brain
You make a sound that feels like pain

So please understand
This isn't just goodbye
This is I can't stand you

11. Make You Smile

The last time I saw you, you turned away
I couldn't see you with the sun shining in my eyes
I said "Hello" but you kept on walking
I'm going deaf from the sound of the freeway

The last time I saw you, you turned away
I couldn't hear with your voice ringing in my ears
Do you remember where we used to sleep at night?
I couldn't feel you, you're always so far away

The first time I saw you, you turned away
I couldn't see you with the smoke getting in my eyes
I said "Hello" but you kept on walking
I'm going deaf from the sound of the DJ

The first time I saw you, you turned away
I couldn't hear with the noise ringing in my ears
Do you remember where we used to sleep at night?
I couldn't feel you, you're always so far away

I don't, don't wanna take you home
Please don't, don't make me sleep alone
If I could, I'd only want to make you smile
If you were to stay with me a while

The next time I see you, you'll turn away
I'll say "Hello" but you'll keep on walking
The next time you see me, I'll turn away
Do you remember where we used to sleep at night?
I couldn't feel you, you're always so far away

I don't, don't wanna take you home
Please don't, don't make me sleep alone
If I could, I'd only want to make you smile
If you were to stay with me a while

I don't, don't wanna take you home
Please don't, don't make me sleep alone
If I could, I'd only want to make you smile
If you were to stay with me a while

12. Chapter 13

And my heart hangs from this noose,
like your footsteps in crowded rooms,
filled with sweet scents of autumn blooms,
is this what you imagined?

catch a glimpse from her empty stare,
hidden eyes behind her auburn hair,
catch my breath for the smoke the clear,
and its just as it should be.

(Chorus)
my best laid plans,
will build and break your heart,
her guilty hands,
tear my whole world apart,
my mind keeps racing,
shes softly dreaming,
im scraped and sober,
but there's no one listening.

and we'll wake up in vacant rooms,
pull you close to my aching skin,
broken glass on the porcelain,
is this what you imagined?

we'll forget what we used to say,
and our lives wont mean anything,
pull me close as I drift away,
and its just as it should be.

(Chorus)
my best laid plans,
will build and break your heart,
her guilty hands,
tear my whole world apart,
my mind keeps racing,
shes softly dreaming,
im scraped and sober,
but there's no one listening.

and we'll both take our revenge,
but we still wont feel any better,
and we'll both take our revenge,
but we still dont feel any better.

and we'll both take our revenge,
but we still wont feel any better,
and we'll both take our revenge,
but we still wont feel any better.

and we'll both take our revenge,
but we still wont feel any better,
and we'll both take our revenge,
but we still wont feel any better.

im scraped and sober but theres no one listening,
im scraped and sober but theres no one listening,
im scraped and sober but theres no one listening,
im scraped and sober but theres no one listening,
to me at all.
