I BROUGHT YOU MY BULLETS, YOU BROUGHT ME YOUR LOVE

Honey, This Mirror Isn't Big Enough For The Two Of Us

The amount of pills I'm taking counteracts the booze I'm drinking
and this vanity I'm breaking, lets me live my life like this.
And well I find it hard to stay, with the words you say
oh baby let me in, oh baby let me in.
Well I'll choose the life I've taken, never mind the friends I'm making
and the beauty that I'm faking, lets me live my life like this.
And well I find it hard to stay, with the words you say
oh baby let me in, oh baby let me in.
And you can cry all you want to, I don't care how much.

Chorus:
You'll invest yourself in me,
we're not working out, we're not working out.
And you can't touch my brother and you can't keep my friends
and we're not working out, we're not working out.
This time I mean it, never mind the times I've seen it.

Well I hope I'm not mistaken by the news I heard from waking
and it's hard to say I'm shaken, by the choices that I make.
And well I find it hard to stay, with the words you say
oh baby let me in, oh baby let me in.
Well I'll choose this life I've taken, never mind the friends I'm making
And I get a little shaken, because I live my life like this.
And well I find it hard to stay, with the words you say
oh baby let me in, oh baby let me in.
And you can cry all you want to, I don't care how much.

Chorus:
You'll invest yourself in me,
we're not working out, we're not working out.
And you can't keep my brother, and you won't fuck my friends
and we're not working out, we're not working out.
This time I mean it, never mind the times I've seen it.

Never again, never again.
(And you can cry all you want to, I don't care how much, you'll invest yourself in...)
Ne-never, never, never again.
(And you can cry all you want to, I don't care how much, you'll invest yourself in...)
Never, never,
Oh baby,
Oh baby,
Oh baby
Oh baby let me in (I'm knocking let me in)
Oh baby let me in.
Oh baby let me in in in in.
Oh baby let me in in in in.
Oh baby let me in.
Oh baby let me in.
Oh baby let me in.
Oh baby let me in.
Oh baby let me in.

Vampires Will Never Hurt You

And if they get me and the sun goes down into the ground,
And if they get me take this spike to my heart and...
And if they get me and the sun goes down,
And if they get me take this spike and...
You put the spike in my heart.

(Because I've seen what they look like,
Becoming perfect as if sterling silver chainsaws went cascading)

And if the sun comes up will it tear the skin right off our bones
and then as razor sharp white teeth rip out our necks, I saw you there.
Someone get me to the doctor, someone get me to a church,
where they can pump this venom gaping hole
and you must keep your soul like a secret in your throat,
and if they come and get me,
You put the spike in my heart.

And if they get me and the sun goes down,
and if they get me take this spike and.
Come on!

Can you take this spike?
Will it fill our hearts with thoughts
of endless night, time, sky.
Can you take this spike?
Will it wash away this jet black feeling?

And now the nightclub set the stage for this, they come in pairs, she said.
We'll shoot back holy water like cheap whiskey they're always there.
Someone get me to the doctor, and someone call the nurse
and someone buy me roses, and someone burned the church.
We're hanging out with corpses, and driving in this hearse,
And someone save my soul tonight, please save my soul.

Can you take this spike?
Will it fill our hearts with thoughts
of endless night, time, sky.
Can you take this spike?
Will it wash away this jet black now...

And as these days watch over time,
and as these days watch over time,
and as these days watch over us tonight.
And as these days watch over time,
and as these days watch over time,
and as these days watch over us tonight.

I'll never let them, I'll never let them,
I'll never let them hurt you, not tonight.
I'll never let them, I can't forget them,
I'll never let them hurt you, I promise.

Struck down, before our prime,
before, you got off the floor.
Can you stake my heart? Can you stake my heart?
(Give me thoughts of endless night, bring us back into the life
and this chaos from my heart)
Can you stake my heart? Can you stake my heart?
Can you stake my heart? Can you stake my heart?
(Give me thoughts of endless night, bring us back into the life
and this chaos from my heart)
Can you stake me before the sun goes down?

(And as always innocent, innocent like roller coaster.
Fatality like ghosts in snow and you have no idea what you're up against
because I've seen what they look like,
becoming perfect as if sterling silver chainsaws went cascading.
Fatality like ghosts in snow.)

Drowning Lessons

Without a sound I took her down
and dressed in red and blue I squeezed.
Imaginary wedding gown,
that you can't wear in front of me.
A kiss goodbye, your twisted shell,
as rice grains and roses fall at your feet.
Let's say goodbye, the hundredth time
and then tomorrow we'll do it again.

Tomorrow we'll do it again.

I dragged her down, I put her out,
and back there I left her where no one could see.
And lifeless cold into this well.
I stared as this moment was held for me.
A kiss goodbye, your twisted shell,
as rice grains and roses fall at your feet.
Let's say goodbye, the hundredth time
and then tomorrow we'll do it again.

I never thought it'd be this way.
Just me and you, we're here alone
and if you stay, all I'm asking for is.
A thousand bodies piled up,
I never thought would be enough
to show you just what I've been thinking.

And I'll keep on making more
just to prove that I adore
every inch of sanity.
All I'm asking for is, all I'm asking for is.

Come on.

These hands stained red
from the times that I've killed you and then
we can wash down this engagement ring
with poison and kerosene.
We'll laugh as we die
and we'll celebrate the end of things
with cheap champagne.

Without, without a sound,
without, without a sound,
and I wish you away.
Without a sound,
and I wish you away.
Without a sound, without a sound,
and I wish you away.
Without a sound, without a sound,
and I wish you away-ay-ay.
Without a sound, without a sound,
and I wish you away.

Our Lady Of Sorrows

We could be perfect one last night
and die like star-crossed lovers when we fight.
And we can settle this affair,
if you would shed your yellow, take my hand,
and then we'll solve the mystery of laceration gravity.
This riddle of revenge, please understand it has to be this way.

Stand up fucking tall,
don't let them see your back.
Take my fucking hand
and never be afraid again.

We've only got once chance to put this at an end
and cross the patron saint of switchblade fights.
You said we're not celebrities, we spark and fade, they die by threes.
I'll make you understand and you can trade me for an apparition.

Stand up fucking tall,
don't let them see your back.
Take my fucking hand
and never...

Trust, you said,
who put the words in your head.
Oh, how wrong we were to think
that immortality meant never dying.

Stand...
Take my fucking hand.
Take my fucking...

Stand up fucking tall,
don't let them see your back.
Take my fucking hand
and never be afraid again.

Just because my hands are 'round your throat!!!!!

Headfirst For Halos

Yeah!
Well let's go back to the middle of the day that starts it all,
Oh, I can't begin to let you know just what I'm feeling.
And now the red ones make me fly,
and the blue ones help me fall
and I think I'll blow my brains against the ceiling.
And as the fragments of my skull begin to fall,
fall on your tongue like pixie dust,
just think happy thoughts.

And we'll fly home,
we'll fly home.
You and I,
we'll fly home.

Well now I'm back in the middle of the day that starts it all.
Well I can't begin to let you know just what I'm feeling.
And now these red ones make me fly,
and the blue ones help me fall.
And I think I'll blow my brain against the ceiling.

And we'll fly home,
you and I,
We'll fly home.

Now honestly, that's what I said to her, what I said to her.
Think happy thoughts.
Think happy thoughts.
Think happy thoughts.
Think happy thoughts.
Think happy thoughts.
Think happy thoughts.
Think happy thoughts.
Think happy thoughts.
Think ha... WUW!

Skylines And Turnstiles

You're not in this alone.
Let me break this awkward silence,
let me go, go on record.
Be the first to say I'm sorry,
hear me out.
Well if you take me down,
would you lay me out?
And if the world needs something better,
let's give them one more reason now.

We walk in single file,
we light our rails and punch our time.
Ride escalators colder than a cell.

This broken city sky, like butane on my skin
and stolen from my eyes.
Hello Angel, tell me where are you,
tell me where we go from here.
This broken city sky like, like butane on my skin
and stolen from my eyes.
Hello Angel, tell me where are you,
tell me where we go from here.

And in this moment we can't close the lids on burning eyes.
Our memories blanket us with friends we know like fallout vapor.
Steel corpses stretch out towards an ending sun, scorched and black.
It reaches in and tears your flesh apart, as ice cold hands rip into your heart.

That's if you've still got one that's left inside that cave you call a chest!
And after seeing what we saw, can we still reclaim our innocence,
and if the world needs something better,
let's give them one more reason now.

This broken city sky, like butane on my skin
and stolen from my eyes.
Hello Angel, tell me where are you,
tell me where we go from here.
This broken city sky like, like butane on my skin
and stolen from my eyes.
Hello Angel, tell me where are you,
tell me where we go from here,
tell me, we go from here.

Early Sunsets Over Monroeville

Late dawns and early sunsets, just like my favorite scenes.
Then holding hands and life was perfect, just like up on the screen.
And the whole time, while always giving,
counting your face among the living.

Up and down escalators, pennies and colder fountains.
Elevators and half price sales, trapped in by all these mountains.
Running away and hiding with you,
I never thought they'd get me here.
Not knowing you changed from just one bite,
I fought them all off just to hold you close and tight.

But does anyone notice?
But does anyone care?
And if I had the guts to put this to your head,
but would anything matter if you're already dead?
And should I be shocked now by the last thing you said?
Before I pull this trigger,
your eyes vacant and stained.

But does anyone notice?
But does anyone care?
And if I had the guts to put this to your head.
And would anything matter if you're already dead?
And now should I be shocked by the last thing you said?
Before I pull this trigger,
your eyes vacant and stained...
and in saying you loved me,
made things harder at best,
and these words changing nothing
as your body remain.
And there's no room in this hell,
there's no room in the next,
and our memories defeat us,
and I'll end this direst.

But does anyone notice?
But does anyone care?
Well if I had the guts to put this to your head.
But does anything matter if you're already dead?
And should I be shocked now by the last thing you said?
Before I pull this trigger,
your eyes vacant and stained.
And in saying you loved me,
made things harder at best,
and these words changing nothing,
as your body remains.
And there's no room in this hell,
there's no room in the next.
But does anyone notice... there's a corpse in this bed?

This Is The Best Day Ever

And we can run, from the backdrop of these gears and scalpels.
At every hour goes the tick-tock bang of monitors as,
they stared us down when we met in the emergency room,
and in our beds, I could hear you breathe with help from cold machines.

Every hour, on the hour, they drew blood.

Well I felt I couldn't take, another day inside this place.
From silent dreams we never wake, and in this promise that we'll make.
Starless eyes, for heaven's sake, but I hear you anyway.
Well I thought I heard you.
Say I like you, we can get out.
We don't have to stay, stay inside this place.

Someday, this day, we kept falling down.
Someday, this day, set the ferris wheel ablaze,
you left my heart an open wound
and I love you for...
this day, someday we kept falling.
One day, this day all we had to keep us safe
and if we never sleep again, it would never end.
Well I thought I heard you say to me,
we'll go so far, far as we can.
And I just can't stay, one day we'll run away.

Cubicles

It's the tearing sound of love notes
drowning out these gray stained windows.
And the view outside is sterile,
and I'm only two cubes down.
I'll photocopy all the things that we could be
if you took the time to notice me,
but you can't now, I don't blame you,
and it's not your fault that no one ever does.

But you don't work here anymore,
it's just a vacant three by four.
And they might fill your place,
a temporary stand-in for your face.
This happens all the time,
and I can't help but think I'll die alone.

So I'll spend my time with strangers,
a condition and is terminal.
In this water-cooler romance,
and it's coming to a close.
We could be in the park and dancing by a tree,
kicking over blades we see,
or a dark beach with a black view,
as pin-pricks in the velvet catch our fall.

But you don't work here anymore,
it's just a vacant three by four.
And they might fill your place,
a temporary stand-in for your face.
This happens all the time,
and I can't help but think I'll die alone.

I know you don't work here anymore, I know you don't work here anymore.
I know you don't work here anymore, I know you don't work here anymore.
I know you don't work here anymore (anymore),
I know you don't work here anymore (anymore)

Sometimes I think I'll die alone, sometimes I think I'll die alone,
Sometimes I think I'll die alone, live and breathe and die alone.
Sometimes I think I'll die alone, sometimes I think I'll die alone,
Sometimes I think I'll die alone, I'd think I'd love to die al..
Just, say,
I think I'll love to die,
Me, down.
I think I'll love to die,
Just, say,
I think I'll love to die,
Me, down.

I think I'd love to die alone,
I think I'd love to die alone,
I think I'd love to die alone,
I think I'd love to die alone,
Live and breathe and die alone,
I think I'd love to die alone,
I think I'd love to die...

Demolition Lovers

Hand in mine, into your icy blues,
and then I'd say to you we could take to the highway.
With this trunk of ammunition too,
I'd end my days with you in a hail of bullets.

I'm trying, I'm trying
to let you know just how much you mean to me,
and after all the things we put each other through and..

I would drive on to the end with you.
A liquor store or two keeps the gas tank full
and I feel like there's nothing left to do,
but prove myself to you and we'll keep it running.

But this time, I mean it
I'll let you know just how much you mean to me.
As snow falls on desert sky,
until the end of everything.

I'm trying, I'm trying
to let you know how much you mean.
As days fade, and nights grow,
and we go cold.

Until the end, until this pool of blood.
Until this, I mean this, I mean this.
Until the end of...

I'm trying, I'm trying
to let you know how much you mean.
As days fade, and nights grow,
and we go cold.
But this time, we'll show them,
we'll show them all how much we mean.
As snow falls on desert sky,
until the end of every...

All we are, all we are,
is bullets, I mean this.
All we are, all we are,
is bullets, I mean this.
All we are, all we are,
is bullets, I mean this.
All we are, all we are,
is bullets, I mean this.

As lead rains, will pass on through our phantoms
forever, forever.
Like scarecrows that fuel this flame, we're burning
forever, and ever.
Know how much I want to show you, you're the only one.
Like a bed of roses, there's a dozen reasons in this gun.

And as we're falling down, and in this pool of blood.
And as we're touching hands,
And as we're falling down, and in this pool of blood.
And as we're falling down, I'll see your eyes.
And in this pool of blood, I'll meet your eyes.
I mean this forever.

THREE CHEERS FOR SWEET REVENGE

Helena

Long ago,
just like the hearse, you die to get in again.
We are so far from you.

Burning on, just like a match you strike to incinerate
the lives of everyone you know.
And what's the worst you take (worst you take)
from every heart you break? (heart you break)
and like the blade you stain (blade you stain)
well I've been holding on tonight.

What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay.
So long and goodnight.
So long and goodnight.

Came a time,
when every star fall brought you to tears again.
We are the very hurt you sold.
And what's the worst you take (worst you take)
from every heart you break? (heart you break)
and like the blade you stain (blade you stain)
well I've been holding on tonight.

What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay.
So long and goodnight.
So long and goodnight.
Well if you carry on this way,
things are better if I stay.
So long and goodnight.
So long and goodnight.

Can you hear me?
Are you near me?
Can we pretend to leave and then
we'll meet again,
when both our cars collide?

What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay.
So long and goodnight.
So long and goodnight.
Well if you carry on this way,
things are better if I stay.
So long and goodnight.
So long and goodnight.

Give 'Em Hell, Kid

Oh baby here comes the sound!
I took a train outta New Orleans and they shot me full of ephedrine.
This is how we like to do it in the murder scene.
Can we settle up the score?

If you were here I'd never have a fear,
so go on live your life,
but I miss you more than I did yesterday.

You're beautiful.

Well I'm a total wreck and almost every day,
like the firing squad or the mess you made.
Well don't I look pretty walking down the street
in the best damn dress I own?

If you were here I'd never have a fear,
so go on live your life,
but I miss you more than I did yesterday.
You're so far away,
so come on, show me how,
'cause I mean this more than words can ever say.

Some might say we are made from the sharpest things you say.
We are young and we don't care
your dreams and your hopeless hair.
We never wanted it to be this way
for all our lives.
Do you care at all?

If you were here I'd never have a fear,
so go on live your life,
but I miss you more than I did yesterday.
You're so far away,
so come on, show me how.
'cause I mean this more than words can ever say.

(What did you call me?)
(Well, there's no way I'm kissing that guy)

To The End

He calls the mansion not a house but a tomb.
He's always choking from the stench and the fume.
The wedding party all collapsed in the room,
so send my resignation to the bride and the groom.
Let's go down!
This elevator only goes up to ten.
He's not around.
He's always looking at men.
Down by the pool.
He doesn't have many friends
as they are.
Face down and bloated snap a shot with the lens.

If you marry me,
Would you bury me?
Would you carry me to the end?

(Say goodbye) to the vows you take,
(And say goodbye) to the life you make,
(And say goodbye) to the heart you break
and all the cyanide you drank.

She keeps a picture of the body she lends.
Got nasty blisters from the money she spends.
She's got a life of her own and it shows by the Benz.
She drives at 90 by the Barbies and Kens.
If you ever say never too late,
I'll forget all the diamonds you ate.
Lost in coma and covered in cake.
Increase the medication,
Share the vows at the wake.
(Kiss the bride)

If you marry me,
Would you bury me?
Would you carry me to the end?

(Say goodbye) to the vows you take,
(And say goodbye) to the life you make,
(And say goodbye) to the heart you break
and all the cyanide you drank.
(And say goodbye) to the last parade,
(And walk away) from the choice you made,
(And say goodbye) to the hearts you break
and all the cyanide you drank.

(So say goodbye) to the vows you take,
(And say goodbye) to the life you make,
(And say goodbye) to the hearts you break
and all the cyanide you drank.
(So say goodbye) to the last parade,
(And walk away) from the choice you made,
(And say goodnight) to the hearts you break,
and all the cyanide you drank.

To the last parade,
when the parties fade,
and the choice you made.
To the End.

You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison

In the middle of a gun fight,
In the center of a restaurant
they say, "Come with your arms raised high!"
Well, they're never gonna get me,
and like a bullet through a flock of doves
to wage this war against your faith in me,
your life will never be the same.
On your mother's eyes, say a prayer,
say a prayer!

Now, but I can't, and I don't know
how we're just two men as God had made us,
well, I can't,
well, I can!
Too much, too late, or just not enough of this,
pain in my heart for your dying wish.
I'll kiss your lips again.

They all cheat at cards and the checkers are lost.
My cellmate's a killer, they made me do push-ups (in drag).
But nobody cares if you're losing yourself.
Am I losing myself?!
Well, I miss my mom,
Will they give me the chair,
or lethal injection, or swing from a rope if you dare;
Ah, nobody knows all the trouble I've seen.

Now, but I can't, and I don't know
how we're just two men as God had made us,
well, I can't,
well, I can!
Too much, too late, or just not enough of this,
pain in my heart for your dying wish.
I'll kiss your lips again.

To your room
what they ask of you
They'll make you want to say, "So long".
But I don't remember,
Why remember YOU?!

Do you have the keys to the hotel?!
'Cause I'm gonna string this motherfucker on fire!
(FIRE!!)

Life is but a dream for the dead,
and well I, I won't go down by myself,
but I'll go down with my friends.
Now now now now, can explain.
Now now now, can complain.
now now now.

I'm Not Okay (I Promise)

Well if you wanted honesty, that's all you had to say.
I never want to let you down or have you go, it's better off this way.
For all the dirty looks, the photographs your boyfriend took.
Remember when you broke your foot from jumping out the second floor?

I'm not okay,
I'm not okay,
I'm not okay.
You wear me out.

What will it take to show you that it's not the life it seems?
(I'm not okay)
I told you time and time again you sing the words but don't know what it means.
(I'm not okay)
To be a joke and look, another line without a hook.
I held you close as we both shook for the last time... take a good hard look!

I'm not okay,
I'm not okay,
I'm not okay.
You wear me out.

Forget about the dirty looks,
the photographs your boyfriend took.
You said you read me like a book,
but the pages are all torn and frayed.

I'm okay... I'm o-kay!
I'm okay now (I'm okay now)

But you really need to listen to me,
because I'm telling you the truth.
I mean this, I'm okay!
(Trust me)

I'm not okay,
I'm not okay,
Well, I'm not okay.
I'm not o-fucking-kay.
I'm not okay,
I'm not okay.

The Ghost Of You

I never said I'd lie and wait forever.
If I died we'd be together.
I can't always just forget her,
but she could try.

At the end of the world, or the last thing I see
you are
Never coming home,
Never coming home.
Could I? Should I?
And all the things that you never ever told me,
And all the smiles that are ever ever...

Ever...

Get the feeling that you're never
all alone and I remember now
at the top of my lungs in my arms, she dies,
she dies.

At the end of the world, or the last thing I see
you are
Never coming home,
Never coming home.
Could I? Should I?
And all the things that you never ever told me,
And all the smiles that are ever gonna haunt me.
Never coming home,
Never coming home.
Could I? Should I?
And all the wounds that are ever gonna scar me,
For all the ghosts that are never gonna catch me.

If I fall,
If I fall (down).

At the end of the world, or the last thing I see
you are
Never coming home,
Never coming home.
Never coming home,
Never coming home.
And all the things that you never ever told me,
And all the smiles that are ever gonna haunt me.
Never coming home,
Never coming home.
Could I? Should I?
And all the wounds that are ever gonna scar me
For all the ghosts that are never gonna...

The Jetset Life Is Gonna Kill You

Gaze into her killing jar I'd sometimes stare for hours (Sometimes stare for hours).
She even poked the holes so I can breathe.
She bought the last line.
I'm just the worst kind of guy to argue,
with what you might find.
And for the last night I lie.
Could I lie with you?

Alright, give up.
Get down. It's just the hardest part of living.
Alright, She wants
it all to come down this time.

Lost in the prescription, she's got something else in mind (Something else in mind).
Check into the Hotel Bella Muerte.
It gives the weak flight,
It gives the blind sight,
until the cops come,
or by the last light.
And for the last night I lie.
Could I lie next to you?

Alright, give up.
Get down. It's just the hardest part of living.
Alright, She wants
it all to come down this time.
Alright, give up.
Get down. It's just the hardest part of living.
Alright, She wants
it all to come down this time.

Pull the plug,
but I'd like to learn your name.
And holding on,
well I hope you do the same.
Awww sugar.
Slip into this tragedy you've spun this chamber dry.

Alright, give up.
Get down. It's just the hardest part of living.
Alright, She wants
it all to come down this time.
Alright, give up.
Get down. It's just the hardest part of living.
Alright, She wants
it all to come down this time.

Pull the plug,
but I'd like to learn your name.
And holding on,
well I hope you do the same.

Thank You For The Venom

Sister, I'm not much a poet, but a criminal
and you never had a chance.
Love it, or leave it, you can't understand.
A pretty face, but you do so carry on,
and on, and on.

I wouldn't front the scene if you paid me.
I'm just the way that the doctor made me,
on, and on,
and on, and on.
Love is the red, the rose on your coffin door.
What's life like, bleeding on the floor?
the floor, the floor?

You'll never make me leave,
I wear this on my sleeve.
Give me a reason to believe.

So give me all your poison,
and give me all your pills,
and give me all your hopeless hearts
and make me ill.
You're running after something
that you'll never kill.
If this is what you want,
then fire at will.

Preach all you want but who's gonna save me?
I keep a gun on the book you gave me.
Hallelujah, lock and load.
Black is the kiss, the touch of the serpent sun.
It ain't the mark or the scar that makes you one,
and one, and one, and one.

You'll never make me leave,
I wear this on my sleeve.
Give me a reason to believe.

So give me all your poison,
and give me all your pills,
and give me all your hopeless hearts
and make me ill.
You're running after something
that you'll never kill.
If this is what you want,
then fire at will.

You'll never make me leave,
I wear this on my sleeve.
You wanna follow something.
Give me a better cause to lead,
just give me what I need.
Give me a reason to believe.

So give me all your poison,
and give me all your pills,
and give me all your hopeless hearts
and make me ill.
You're running after something
that you'll never kill.
If this is what you want,
then fire at will.

So give me all your poison,
and give me all your pills,
and give me all your hopeless hearts
and make me ill.
You're running after something
that you'll never kill.
If this is what you want,
then fire at will.

Hang 'Em High

Wait until it fades to black,
ride into the sunset.
Would I lie to you?
well, I've got something to say.
Grab your six-gun from your back,
throttle the ignition.
Would I die for you?
Well here's your answer in spades.

Shotgun sinners,
Wild eyed jokers.
Got you in my sights.
Gun it while, I'm holding on.

And after all is said and done
climb out from the pine box,
well I'm asking you,
'cause she's got nothing to say.
The angels just cut out her tongue;
Call her black Mariah.
Would I lie to you?
That girl's not right in the brain.

Mass convulsions,
strike the choir
by the grace of God.
Gun it while, I'm holding on.

But don't stop if I fall
and don't look back.
Oh baby don't stop,
bury me and fade to black.

She won't stop me put it down.
She won't stop me put it down.
She won't stop me put it down,
so get your gun and meet me by the door.
She won't stop me put it down.
She won't stop me put it down.
She won't stop me put it down,
so get your gun and meet me by the door.
She won't stop me put it down. (Yeah)
She won't stop me put it down.
She won't stop me put it down,
so get your gun and meet me by the door.

She won't stop me put it down.
She won't stop me put it down.
She won't stop me put it down.
So baby...

Don't stop if I fall
and don't look back.
Oh baby don't stop,
bury me and fade to black.
Don't stop if I fall
and don't look back.
Oh baby don't stop,
bury me and fade to black.

It's Not A Fashion Statement, It's A Fucking Deathwish

For what you did to me,
and what I'll do to you,
you get, what everyone else gets,
you get a lifetime!

Go!

Do you remember that day when we met
you told me this gets harder.
Well it did!
Been holding on forever,
promise me that when I'm gone you'll kill my enemies.
The damage, you've inflicted temporary wounds.
I'm coming back from the dead, well I'll take you home with me.
I'm taking back the life you stole.

We never got that far,
this helps me to think all through the night.
Bright lights that, won't kill me now, or tell me how.
Just you and I, your starless eyes remain.

Hip Hip Hooray for me, you talk to me,
but would you kill me in my sleep?
Lay still like the dead.
From the razor to the rosary,
we could lose ourselves
and paint these walls in pitchfork red.

I will avenge my ghost with every breath I take.
I'm coming back from the dead and I'll take you home with me.
I'm taking back the life you stole.

This hole that you put me in, wasn't deep enough
and I'm climbing out right now.
You're running out of places to hide from me.
When you go,
just know that I will remember you.
If living was the hardest part,
we'll then one day be together.
And in the end we'll fall apart
just as the leaves changing colors.
And then I will be with you,
I will be there one last time now.

When you go,
just know that I will remember you.

I lost my fear of falling,
I will be with you.
I will be with you.

Cemetery Drive

This night, walk the dead
in a solitary style
and crash the cemetery gates.
In the dress your husband hates.
Way down, mark the grave
where the search lights find us
drinking by the mausoleum door,
and they found you on the bathroom floor.

I miss you, I miss you so far.
And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard.

Back home, off the run,
singing songs that make you slit your wrists.
It isn't that much fun? Staring down a loaded gun.
So I won't stop dying, won't stop lying.
If you want I'll keep on crying.
Did you get what you deserve?
Is this what you always want me for?

I miss you, I miss you so far.
And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard.

Way down, way down.
Way down, way down.
Way down, way down.
Way down, way down.

I miss you, I miss you so far.
And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard.

Well, well I miss you. Well, well I miss you so far.
And the collision of your kiss that made it so hard,
made it so hard.

Way down, way down.
Way down, way down.
Way down, way down.
Way down, way down.

Way down.

I Never Told You What I Do For a Living

Stay out of the light,
or the photographs that I gave you.
You can say a prayer if you need to,
or just get in line and I'll grieve you.
Can I meet you, alone?
Another night and I'll see you.
Another night and I'll be you.
Some other way to continue,
to hide my face.


Another knife in my hands.
A stain that never comes off the sheets.
Clean me off, I'm so dirty babe!
The kind of dirty where the water never cleans off the clothes.
I keep a book of the names and those.

Only goes so far 'til you bury them.
So deep and down we go.

Touched by angels, though I fall out of grace.
I did it all, so maybe I'd live this every day.

Another knife in my hands.
A stain that never comes off the sheets.
Clean me off, I'm so dirty babe!
It ain't the money and it sure as hell ain't just for the fame.
It's for the bodies I claim and lose.

Only goes so far 'til you bury them.
So deep and down we go.

Down

And down we go,
And down we go,
And down we go.
And we all fall down.

I tried, I tried.

And we'll all dance alone to the tune of your death.
We'll love again, we'll laugh again,
and it's better off this way.

And never again, and never again.
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
and we're all dead now.

Well never again, and never again.
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
and we're all dead now.

I tried,
one more night,
one more night.
Well I'm laughin', cryin', laughin'
I tried, well I tried, well I tried.
'Cause I tried, but I lied.
I lied.

I tried, I tried, I tried.

And we'll love again, we'll laugh again.
We'll cry again and we'll dance again.
And it's better off this way,
so much better off this way.
I can't clean the blood off the sheets in my bed.

And never again, and never again.
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
and we're all dead now.

THE BLACK PARADE

The End

Now come on, come all to this tragic affair.
Wipe off that makeup-what's in is despair.
So throw on the black dress, mix in with the lot.
You might wake up and notice you're someone you're not.
If you look in the mirror and don't like what you see,
you can find out firsthand what it's like to be me.
So gather 'round piggies and kiss this goodbye.
I'd encourage your smiles,
I'll expect you won't cry.

Another contusion, my funeral jag.
Here's my resignation, I'll serve it in drag.
You've got front row seats to the penitence ball.
When I grow up I want to be nothing at all!
I said...

YEAH! YEAH! I SAID-YEAH! YEAH!

C'mon, C'mon, C'mon, I said
Save Me!
Get me the hell out of here.
Save Me!
Too young to die and my dear.
You Can't!
If you can hear me just walk away and
Take Me!

Dead!

And if your heart stops beating,
I'll be here wondering.
Did you get what you deserve?
The ending of your life.
And if you get to heaven,
I'll be here waiting, babe.
Did you get what you deserve?
The end,
and if your life won't wait,
then your heart can't take this.

Have you heard the news that you're dead?
No one ever had much nice to say.
I think they never liked you anyway.
Oh take me from the hospital bed.
Wouldn't it be grand?
It ain't exactly what you planned
And wouldn't it be great if we were dead?
Dead.

Tongue-tied and oh so squeamish,
you never fell in love.
Did you get what you deserve?
The ending of your life.
And if we get to heaven,
I'll be here waiting babe.
Did you get what you deserve?
The end,
and if your life won't wait,
then your heart can't take this.

Have you heard the news that you're dead?
No one ever had much nice to say.
I think they never liked you anyway.
Oh take me from the hospital bed.
Wouldn't it be grand to take a pistol by the hand?
And wouldn't it be great if we were dead?

And in my honest observation
during this operation
found a complication with your heart,
so long
'Cause now you've got,
maybe just two weeks to live.
Is that the most the both of you can give?

LA LA LA LA LA! LA LA LA LA LA LA!
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA!

Oh, motherfucker.
If Life ain't just a joke,
then why are we laughing?
If Life ain't just a joke,
then why are we laughing?
If Life ain't just a joke,
then why are we laughing?
If Life ain't just a joke,
then why am I dead?
Dead!

This Is How I Disappear

To un-explain the unforgivable.
Drain all the blood and give the kids a show.
By streetlight, this dark night, a seance down below.
There're things that I have done,
you never, should ever know.

And without you is how I disappear,
and live my life alone, forever now.
And without you is how I disappear,
and live my life alone, forever now.

Who walks among the famous living dead.
Drowns all the boys and girls inside your bed,
and if you could talk to me,
tell me if it's so
that all the good girls go to heaven.
Well heaven knows.

That without you is how I disappear,
and live my life alone, forever now.
And without you is how I disappear,
and live my life alone, forever now.

Can you hear me cry out to you?
Words I thought I'd choke on figure out.
I'm really not so with you anymore,
I'm just a ghost.
So I can't hurt you anymore.
So I can't hurt you anymore.

And now you wanna see how far down I can sink?
Let me go!

So, you can,
Well now so, you can.
I'm so far away from you.
Well now so, you can.

And without you is how I disappear,
And without you is how I disappear,
And without you is how I disappear.
Forever, forever now.

The Sharpest Lives

Well it rains and it pours,
when you're out on your own.
If I crash on the couch, can I sleep in my clothes?
'Cause I've spent the night dancing, I'm drunk I suppose.
If it looks like I'm laughing, I'm really just asking to leave.
This alone, you're in time for the show.
You're the one that I need,
I'm the one that you loathe.
You can watch me corrode like a beast in repose,
'Cause I love all the poison away with the boys in the band.

I've really been on a bender and it shows,
so why don't blow me a kiss before she goes?

Give me a shot to remember,
and you can take all the pain away from me.
A kiss and I will surrender,
the sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead.
A light to burn all the empires,
so bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be
in love with all of these vampires,
so you can leave like the sane abandoned me.

There's a place in the dark where the animals go,
you can take off your skin in the cannibal glow.
Juliet loves the beat and the lust it commands,
drop the dagger and lather the blood on your hands,
Romeo.

I've really been on a bender and it shows,
so why don't you blow me a kiss before she goes.

Give me a shot to remember,
and you can take all the pain away from me.
A kiss and I will surrender,
the sharpest lives are the deadliest to lead.
A light to burn all the empires,
so bright the sun is ashamed to rise and be
in love with all of these vampires,
so you can leave like the san abandoned me.

Welcome To The Black Parade

When I was a young boy,
my father took me into the city
to see a marching band.
He said
"Son, when you grow up would you be
the savoir of the broken?
the beaten and the damned?"
He said "Will you defeat them,
your demons and all the non-believers,
the plans that they have made?
Because one day I'll leave you a phantom
to lead you in the summer,
to join the black parade"

When I was a young boy,
my father took me into the city
to see a marching band.
He said
"Son, when you grow up would you be
the savoir of the broken?
the beaten and the damned?"

Sometimes I get the feeling
she's watching over me,
and other times I feel like I should go.
And through it all, the rise and fall,
the bodies in the streets,
and when you're gone we want you all to know.

We'll carry on,
We'll carry on,
and though you're dead and gone, believe me,
your memory will carry on,
we'll carry on.
And in my heart I can't contain it,
the anthem won't explain it.

A world that sends you reeling
from decimated dreams.
Your misery and hate will kill us all.
So paint it black, and take it back,
Let's shout it loud and clear.
Defiant to the end, we hear the call.

To carry on,
We'll carry on,
and though you're dead and gone, believe me,
your memory will carry on,
we'll carry on.
And though you're broken and defeated,
your weary widow marches.

On and on we carry through the fears,
disappointed faces of your peers.
Take a look at me, 'cause I could not care at all.

Do or die,
you'll never make me,
because the world will never take my heart.
Go and try,
You'll never break me,
we want it all,
we want to play this part.
I won't explain or say I'm sorry.
I'm unashamed, I'm gonna show my scar.
Give a cheer gor all the broken.
Listen here because it's who we are.
I'm just a man,
I'm not a hero,
just a boy
who had to sing this song.
I'm just a man,
I'm not a hero.
I... Don't... Care!

We'll carry on,
We'll carry on,
and though you're dead and gone believe me,
your memory will carry on,
we'll carry on.
And though you're broken and defeated,
your weary widow marches.
We'll carry on.

Do or die,
You'll never make me,
because the world will never take my heart.
Go and try, you'll never break me.
We want it all,
We want to play this part.
Do or die,
You'll never make me,
because the world will never take my heart.
Go and try, you'll never break me.
We want it all,
We want to play this part.

I Don't Love You

Well when you go,
don't ever think I'll make you try to stay.
And maybe when you get back
I'll be off to find another way.
Well after all this time that you still owe
you're still the good-for-nothing, I don't know.
So take your gloves and get out,
better get out, while you can.

When you go,
would you even turn to say
"I don't love you like I did yesterday"?

Sometimes I cry so hard from pleading,
so sick and tired of all the needless beating.
But baby when they knock you
down and out, is where you oughta stay.
And after all the blood that you still owe,
another dollar was just another blow
So fix your eyes and get up,
baby get up, while you can.

When you go,
and would you even turn to say
"I don't love you like I did yesterday"?

Now Come on, come on!

When you go...
would you have the guts to say
"I don't love you like I loved you yesterday"?

"I don't love you like I loved you yesterday...
I don't love you like I loved you yesterday"

And I said ashes to ashes we all fall down,
I wanna hear you sing the praise.
And I said ashes to ashes we all fall down,
we got innocence for days.

Tell me I'm angel, take this to my grave.

'cause they're never gonna leave you alone.
You better hide up in the alley
'cause they're never gonna find you a home.
And as the blood runs down the walls,
you see me creepin' up these halls.

And say what I wanna say,
tell me I'm an angel, take this to my grave.

I will not kiss you,

Now turn away,

Stop asking me questions, I'd hate to see you cry.

Mama, we're all full of lies.
Mama, we're meant for the flies.
And right now they're building a coffin your size.
Mama, we're all full of lies.
Well mother what the war did to my legs and to my tongue,
you shoulda raised a baby girl, I shoulda been a better son.
If you could coddle the infection, they can amputate at once.
You should've been, I could have been a better son.

And when we go don't blame us (yeah)
We let this fire just bathe us (yeah)
You made us oh so so famous,
we'll never let you go.
She said you ain't no son of mine
for what you've done there,

When you go don't return to me my love.

But the shit that I've done with this fuck of a gun.
You would cry out your eyes all along.

We're damned, after all.
Through fortune and flame we fall,
and if you can stay then I'll show you the way
and return from the ashes you call.
We all carry on,
when our brothers in arms are gone.
So raise your guns high for tomorrow we die,
and return from the ashes you run.

Sleep

Some say, now suffer all the children
and walk away a saviour
or a madman and polluted
from gutter institutions.
Don't you breathe for me,
undeserving of your sympathy,
'cause there ain't no way that I'm sorry for what I did.

And through it all
how could you cry for me?
'cause I don't feel bad about it.
So shut your eyes, kiss me goodbye,
and sleep, just sleep.

The hardest part
is letting go of, your dreams.

A drink, for the horror that I'm in.
For the good guys and the bad guys,
for the monsters that I've been.
Three cheers for tyranny,
unapologetic apathy,
'cause there ain't no way that I'm coming back again.

And through it all
how could you cry for me?
'cause I don't feel bad about it.
So shut your eyes, kiss me goodbye,
and sleep, just sleep.

The hardest parts,
the awful things that I've seen.

(Sometimes I see flames,
and sometimes I see people that I love dying.)

Just sleep, just sleep.
Just sleep, just sleep.
Just sleep, just sleep.

Teenagers

They're gonna clean up your looks

Because the drugs never work,
they gonna give you a smirk,
'cause they got methods of keeping you clean.
They gonna rip off your heads,
your aspirations are shreds.
Another cock in the murder machine.

They say all teenagers scare the living shit out of me.
They could care less as long as someone don't bleed.
So darken your clothes or strike a violent pose.
Maybe they'll leave you alone, but not me.

The boys and girls in the click,
the awful names that they stick.
You're never gonna fit in much, kid.
But if you're troubled and hurt,
what you got under your shirt?
Will make them pay for the things that they did?

Disenchanted

Well, I was there on the day they sold the cars for the Queen,
and when the lights all went out we watched our lives on the screen.
I hate the ending myself, but it started with an all right scene.
It was the roar of the crowd that gave me heartache to sing.
It was a lie when they smiled and said "you won't feel a thing".
And as we ran from the cops, we laughed too hard, it would sting.

If I'm so wrong, (so wrong, so wrong)
how can you listen all night long? (night long, night long)
And will it matter after I'm gone?
because you never learned a God damned thing.

Your just a sad song with nothin' to say
about a life long wait for a hospital stay.
Well, if you think that I'm wrong,
this never meant nothing to you.

I spent my high school career spit on and shoved to agree,
so I can watch all my heroes sell a car on TV.
We got the young guillotine, we'll show 'em what we all mean.

If I'm so wrong, (so wrong, so wrong)
how can you listen all night long? (night long, night long)
Now will it matter after I'm gone?
because you never learned a God damned thing.

Your just a sad song with nothin' to say
about a life long wait for a hospital stay.
Well, if you think that I'm wrong,
this never meant nothing to you.

So go, go away,
just go, run away.
Where did you run to?
Where did you hide?
You'll find another way.
(What you pay?)

Woah, Woah, Woah, Woah, Woah, Woah.

It's just a sad song with nothin' to say
about a life long wait for a hospital stay.
Well, if you think that I'm wrong,
this never meant nothing to you.
Come on.

to change that part,
to change...
So many bright lights, they cast a shadow
but, can I speak?
Is it hard understanding? I'm incomplete.
A life that's son demanding,
I get so weak.
A love that's so demanding,
I can't speak.

I am not afraid to keep on living,
I am not afraid to walk this world alone.
Honey, if you stay I'll be forgiven.
Nothing you can say can stop me going home.

Can you see?
My eyes are shinning bright
'cause I'm out here on the other side
of a jet black hotel mirror,
and I'm so weak.
Is it hard understanding? I'm incomplete.
A love that's so demanding,
I get weak.

I am not afraid to keep on living,
I am not afraid to walk this world alone.
Honey, if you stay I'll be forgiven.
Nothing you can say can stop me going home.
I am not afraid to keep on living,
I am not afraid to walk this world alone.
Honey, if you stay I'll be forgiven.
Nothing you can say can stop me going home.

These bright lights have always blinded me.
These bright lights have always blinded me.
I said...

I see you lying next to me,
with words I thought I'd never speak.
Awake and unafraid, asleep or dead.
'Cause I see you lying next to me, (I can see, I see you lying)
with words I thought I'd never speak. (I can see, I see you lying)
(I can see, I see you lying)
Awake and unafraid, asleep or dead. (I can see, I see you lying)

'Cause I see you lying next to me,
with words I thought I'd never speak.
Awake and unafraid, asleep or dead.
'Cause I see you lying next to me,
with words I thought I'd never speak.
Awake and unafraid, asleep or dead.

I am not afraid to keep on living,
I am not afraid to walk this world alone.
Honey, if you stay I'll be forgiven.
Nothing you can say can stop me going home.
I am not afraid to keep on living,
I am not afraid to walk this world alone.
Honey, if you stay I'll be forgiven.
Nothing you can say can stop me going home.

Blood [Hidden Track]

Well they encourage your complete co-operation.
Send you roses when they think you need to smile.
I can't control myself because I don't know how,
and they love me for well honestly I'll be here for a while.

So give them blood, blood.
Gallons of the stuff,
give them all that they can drink and it will never be enough.
Blood, blood, blood.
Grab a glass because there is going to be be a flood.

A celebrated man amongst the gurnees,
they can fix me proper with a bit of luck.
The doctors and the nurses they adore me so,
but it's really quite alarming cause I'm such an awful fuck.

("Oh thank you")

I gave you blood, blood.
Gallons of the stuff,
I gave you all that you could drink and it's never been enough.
I gave you blood, blood, bloooood.
I'm the kinda human wreckage that you love.

From LIFE ON A MURDER SCENE:

I Never Told You What I Do For A Living (Demo)

Far from this return, I fall out of grace.
I dig my hole,
I put the dead bodies in every day.
You can't take this life, take it back from me.
I live my whole life baby,
I live this everyday.

You see your life in my hands,
Your love is covered in blood and piss,
clean me off I'm so dirty babe.
It ain't about money and it ain't
for the dark red that you go.
You see your heart in my hands.
Let go.

And go so far, and bury them
in a hole so deep.

Back from this return, I fall out of grace.
I dig this hole that
I put dead bodies in every day.
I see your life in my hands,
and now it's covered in blood and piss.
Clean me off, I'm so dirty babe.

It ain't for money, baby, baby
I just do it for fame.
It's for the glory, baby
And blood stains.

And goes so far,
and buries them.
So hard and deep
we'll both go.

I tried... I tried...
And we'll all dance along
to the tune of your death.
We'll laugh again,
we'll cry again
and it's better off this way.

Well never again, and never again.
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
and we're all dead now.
Well never again, and never again.
They gave us two shots to the back of the head
and we're all dead now.

I tried
one more night.
I tried,
I tried, I tried.

I tried, I tried, I tried, I tried.

And we'll love again,
we'll laugh again,
we'll cry again
and we'll dance again,
and it's better off this way,
so much better off this way.
And I know in your heart
that you wanted to die!

Well never again, and never again
They gave us two shots through the back of our heads
and we're all dead now.

Bury Me In Black
[Plus TCFSR Japanese Version Bonus Track]

I said, we'll drown ourselves in misery tonight.
I lied, you've worn out all your dancing shoes this time.
Just give us war, worn lipstick by the door if I inflame.

These eyes have had too much to drink again tonight.
Black skies, we'll douse ourselves in high explosive light.
Just give us war, I've been calling you all week for my shotgun.

Pick up the phone,
Pick up the phone fucker!

I wanna see what you're insides look like,
I bet you're not fuckin pretty on the inside.
I wanna see what you're insides look like,
I wanna see 'em.

Well, you don't say!
And well I can explain what happened to my face late last night.
I'm sleeping next to pools in vacant alleyways,
and what I'm going through, shot lipgloss through my veins,
and well I can't complain with the falling rain.

Come on!

I wanna save your heart!
I wanna see what your insides may be!

Desert Song

We hold in our hearts the sword and the faith.
Swelled up from the rain, clouds move like a wraith.
Well after all, we'll lie another day,
and through it all we'll find some other way
to carry on, through cartilage and fluid,
and did you come to stare or wash away the blood?

Well tonight, well tonight will it ever come?
Spend the rest of your days rocking out, just for the dead.
Well tonight, will it ever come?
I can see you awake anytime in my head.

Did we all fall down?
Did we all fall down?
Did we all fall down?
Did we all fall down?
From the lights to the pavement,
from the van to the floor,
from backstage to the doctor,
from the earth to the morgue,
morgue, morgue, morgue.

Well tonight, well tonight will it ever come?
Spend the rest of your days rocking out, just for the dead.
Well tonight, will it ever come?
I can see you awake anytime in my head.

All fall down...
Well after all...

OLD LYRIC VERSIONS OF:
[Not Demo, BEFORE Attic Demos]

Skylines (Skylines and Turnstiles)

You're not in this alone,
let me break this awkward silence,
let me go, go on record.
Be the first to say I'm sorry,
be the first, to let you take me down,
then you lay me out.
And if the world needs something better
let's give them one more reason now.

We walk in single file,
we light up rails and punch our time.
Ride escalators colder than a cell.

This broken city sky like butane on my skin
and stolen from my eyes.
Hello Angel, tell me where are you?
Tell me where we go from here.
This broken city sky like butane on my skin
and stolen from my eyes.
Hello Angel, tell me where are you?
Tell me where we go from here.

And in this moment we can't close the lids on burning eyes.
Our memories blanket us with friends we know like fallout vapor.
Steel corpses stretch out towards and ending sun scorched and black.
It reaches in and rips your flesh apart,
with ice cold hands and grabs a hold of your heart...
that's if you've still got one that's left inside that cave you call a chest,
and after seeing what we saw, can we still proclaim our innocence?
and if the world needs something better
let's give them one more reason now.

This broken city sky like butane on my skin
and stolen from my eyes.
Hello Angel, tell me where are you?
Tell me where we go from here.
This broken city sky like butane on my skin
and stolen from my eyes.
Hello Angel, tell me where are you?
Tell me where we go from here.

Cubicles

It's the tearing sound of love-notes
drowning out the gray stained windows
and the view outside is sterile
but I'm only two cubes down.
I'll photocopy all the things that we could be
if you took the time to notice me
but you can't now, I don't blame you
and it's not your fault that no one ever does.

But you don't work here anymore,
it's just a vacant three by four.
And they might fill your place,
a temporary stand-in for your face.
It happens all the time
and I can't help but think I'll die alone.

So I'll spend my time with strangers,
a condition that is terminal
in this water-cooler romance
and it's coming to a close.
We could be in the park and dancing by a tree,
kicking over blades we see
or a dark beach with a black view,
as pin-pricks in the velvet break our fall.

But you don't work here anymore,
it's just a vacant three by four.
And they might fill your place,
a temporary stand-in for your face.
It happens all the time
and I can't help but think I'll die alone.

I know you don't work here anymore, I know you don't work here anymore.
I know you don't work here anymore, I know you don't work here anymore.
I know you don't work here anymore, I know you don't work here anymore.

Sometimes I think I'll die alone, sometimes I think I'll die alone.
Sometimes I think I'll die alone, live and breathe and die alone.
Sometimes I think I'll die alone, sometimes I think I'll die alone.
Sometimes I think I'll die alone, I'd think I'd love to die alone.

I think I'd love to die alone.

BONUS TRACKS:

Heaven Help Us
(Welcome to The Black Parade Single Bonus Track)

Hear the sound,
the angels come screaming.
Down your voice,
I hear you've been bleeding.
Make your choice,
they say you've been pleading.
Someone save us.

Heaven help us now.
Come crashing down.
We'll hear the sound,
as you're falling down.

I'm at this old hotel,
but can't tell if I've been breathing, or sleeping
or screaming, or waiting for the man to call
and maybe all of the above,
'cause mostly I've been sprawled on these cathedral steps,
while spitting out the blood and screaming:
"Someone save us!"

Heaven help us now.
Come crashing down.
We'll hear the sound,
as you're falling down.

And will you pray for me?
or make a saint of me?
And will you lay for me?
or make a saint of?

'cause I'll give you all the nails you need.
Cover me in gasoline,
wipe away those tears of blood again
and the punchline to the joke is asking,
someone save us!

Heaven help us now.
Come crashing down.
We'll hear the sound,
as you fall...

And would you pray for me?
(You don't know a thing about my sins,
how the misery begins)
Or make a saint of me?
(You don't know, so I'm burning, I'm burning)
And will you lay for me?
(You don't know a thing about my sins,
how the misery begins)
Or make a saint?
(You don't know 'ause I'm burning, I'm burning)

'Cause I'll give you all the nails you need,
(I'm burning, I'm burning again)
cover me in gasoline again.

Kill All Your Friends
(Famous Last Words Single Bonus Track)

Well you can holler all about yourself,
but honey what are you gonna do?
And you can sleep in a coffin
but the past ain't threw with you.
'Cause we are all a bunch of liars,
tell me baby who do you wanna be?
And we are all about to sell it
'cause it's tragic with a capital T.
Let it be, let it be, let it be.

'Cause we all wanna party when the funeral ends.
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba.
And we all get together when we bury your friends.
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba.
It's been eight bitter years since I've been seeing your face.
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba.
And you're walking away, and I will die in this place.

Sometimes your scraping sinks so low,
I'm shocked at what you're capable of.
And if this is a coronation I ain't feeling the love.
'Cause we are all a bunch of animals
that never paid attention in school.
So tell me all about your problems,
I was killing before killing was cool.
You're so cool,
You're so cool,
So cool!

'Cause we all wanna party when the funeral ends.
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba.
And we all get together when we bury our friends.
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba.
It's been nine bitter years since I've been seeing your face.
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba.
And you're walking away, and I will die in this place.

You'll never take me alive,
you'll never take me alive.
Do what it takes to survive 'cause I'm still here.
You'll never get me alive,
you'll never take me alive.
Do what it takes to survive and I'm still here.
You'll never take me alive,
you'll never get me alive.
Do what it takes to survive and I'm still here.
You'll never get me. (get me)
You'll never take me. (take me)
You'll never get me alive.

'Cause we all wanna party when the funeral ends
Ba ba ba, ba ba ba.
And we all get together when we bury our friends.
It's been ten fucking years since I've been seeing your face 'round here.
And you're walking away, and I will drown in the fear.

My Way Home Is Through You

Gonna take off all my skin, tear apart all of my insides,
when they rifle in, Mom and Dad think you'll be saved.
They never had the time, they gonna medicate your lives.
You were always born a crime, we salute you in your grave.

COVER SONGS:

All I Want For Christmas Is You
(Originally by Mariah Carey)

I don’t want a lot for Christmas,
there is just one thing I need.
I don’t care about the presents underneath the Christmas tree.
I just want you for my own,
more than you could ever know.
Make my wish come true,
baby, all I want for Christmas is you.

I don’t want a lot for Christmas,
there is just one thing I need.
And I don’t care about the presents underneath the Christmas tree.
I don’t need to hang my stocking way above the fireplace.
Santa Clause won't make me happy with a toy on Christmas day.

And I just want you for my own,
more than you could ever know.
Make my wish come true,
Oh baby, all I want for Christmas is you, you baby.

I won't ask for much this Christmas,
I won't even wish oh I won't even wish. I wont even wish for snow.
I’m just gonna keep on waiting underneath the mistletoe.
I won't make a list and send it to the North Pole for St. Nick
Wont even stay awake to hear the magic reindeer play.

'Cause I just want you here tonight,
Holdin' on to me so tight.
What more can I do?
Oh baby, all I want for Christmas is you, oh baby.

Oh our lives are shining surrounding everywhere,
where the sounds of children’s laughter fills the air.
And everyone is singin' oh I hear those sleigh bells ringin'
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need,
won't you bring back my baby to me?

Oh I don’t want a lot for Christmas,
this is all I’m askin for.
I just want to see my baby standing right outside my door.
I just want you for my own,
more than you could ever know.
Make my wish come true,
all I want for Christmas is you, you.
It's you, you, oh baby.
All I want is you.
All I want is you.
All I want is you.
All I want is you.

Under Pressure [with The Used]
(Originally by Freddie Mercury & David Bowie)

(Bert)
Pressure, pushing down on me,
pressing down on you, no man ask for.
(Gerard)
Under pressure, that burns a building down,
splits a family in two, puts people on streets.

Bi da da, Bi da da
Bi da da, Bi da da.
That's o-kay!

(Bert)
It's the terror of knowing what this world is about,
watching some good friends screaming "Let me out"
(Gerard)
Pray tomorrow, takes me higher.
Pressure on people, people on streets.

(Gerard)
Chipping around, kick my brains around the floor.
These are the days it never rains but it pours
Be da do, be da do,
Be da do, be da do,
People on streets, be de di da de,
people on streets, be de di da de da de da de da!

(Bert)
It's the terror of knowing what this world is about,
watching some good friends screaming "Let me out"
(Gerard)
Pray tomorrow, takes me higher.
Yeahhh...

(Bert & Gerard)
Turned away from it all, like a blind man.
Sat on a fence but it don't work.
I Keep coming up with love, but it's so slashed and torn.
Yeah, Why, why, why? Love, love, love, love.

(Bert)
Insanity laughs, under pressure we're cracking.
(Gerard)
Can't we give ourselves one more chance?
Why can't we give love that one more chance?
Why can't we
give love, give love,
give love, give love,
give love, give love,
give love, give love...

(Bert)
'Cause love's such an old fashioned word
and love dares you to care for the people on the
(Bert & Gerard)
Edge of the night, and love dares you
to change our way of caring about ourselves.

This is our last dance,
this is our last dance,
this is ourselves.

Under pressure,
Under pressure,

We'll find another way...

Sister to Sleep

Welcome to this institution,
one way to resolution.
I'm put it on this medication,
rolls down my throat.
'Cause I can't ever sleep at night the same.
This medication enjoys, enjoys most every time.
'Cause I, I, I, I, I
'Cause I close my eyes, I see land.

What did I said?
What did I say to put her to sleep?
And fall awake and die
and I'm never go to bed.

Back to the day, back into this day.

Back to another anthem, hotter than hell.
Said that we're not savages until we do it again.
Back into this introduction, said, refuse that we're not savages.
So one last night I'll kiss your lips again.

What did I said?
What did I say to put Sister to Sleep?
And fall awake and die
and I'm never goin' to sleep.

I will take your ferris wheel now;
I'm sleepwalking back into this hell.

Oh my darling,
for the first night.

Don't let me sleep tonight,
Keep in your way tonight,
Don't let me sleep tonight,
Get in your way.

What did I said?
What did I say to put Sister to Sleep?
I'll never go to sleep,
and I won't go back to bed.

I will take your(...impossible...)
I'm sleepwalking back into this...
HELL! WHY? GOD?
