I try to wake you; you're fast asleep What a perfect way to end this day I've got a lot of words to say right away In the back of my heart The car crashing, sound of sirens Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up! Oh, God! The voice we need to talk, to talk, wake up, wake up! Let the bridges all burn Let me take this cam and try But I can not find the words to say goodbye Writing down the words, just trying to kill the sound 'Cause anxiety got the better of me The words finally becomes more than just some writing With a fraction of a second to wait You must focus to be a part of something Go back to sleep; help me through heart break This voice, better tell you we're dreaming! Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up! Oh, God! The voice we need to talk, to talk, wake up, wake up! Let the bridges all burn Let me take this cam and always try But I can not find the words to say goodbye It's getting cold... Okay! Fight, fight, fight! Fight, fight, fight! Fight, fight, fight! Fight, fight, fight! Rah! It's all this complication, oh, God you're screaming uh-uh-uh okay! And all this complication, okay you're bleeding uh, uh, uh, uh, uh The only complication, oh, God, you're screaming uh, uh, uh, uh, uh And all this complication, okay you're bleeding uh, uh, uh... uh It's 2 am You're fast asleep...Noo! I'm watching you...Oh, God! As you dream away your inspiration Oh no you're drifting away I'm all alone, but I'm still writing... (Writing to you!) To you And I'm just one night away from how much I love you

One chance, one shot, one bullet in the back of my head And it came from the bottom of your heart You couldn't find the words to tell me So you went and found some bullets and shot me What better than the kiss of a 9 millimeter to promote the heartbreak? Goodbye to the paramour notes We used to be such a finely scripted romance But now you're all alone in watching me drown in our Last tragedy that you so proudly painted Oh God, but how the bullet meets my lungs Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey Just like the love it takes my breath away Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey Oh, God, how the bullet meets my lungs Oh God, well now it's ended but the last laugh belongs to me Listen up, this is my bullet of envy The mess, the cracks in your heart that's what you've created This the heartache that only you, you, you've invented Oh God, but how the bullet meets my lungs Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey Just like the love it takes my breath away Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey Oh, God, how the bullet meets my lungs You're pulling the trigger, placing the bullet against my heart Screaming the point 4 so I can have a head start to exit (I can have a head start to exit) But I'll break back through with my bullet of envy My bitter revenge before your sweet tragedy Oh, God! Oh! Pull the trigger, pull the trigger Oh God, pull the trigger Say something more to preach the sudden silence My last words before your— Gunshot! Oh! We're making a change Oh God, pull the trigger It's making the changing sound My bullet, my cancer, sweet tragedy My bullets, my bitter revenge before your gunshot

Don't go blowing me a kiss Because you'll see it break down in all its elegance Like a model wearing the wrong make-up for her own fashion parade Take the broken heart and stitch it up with some tears Blush it up, dress it up and put it on ice, it keeps us cold Frozen your lips turn lullabies numb You're laughing melodies in time with heartbreak and rhyme Don't go blowing me a kiss Because you'll see it break down in all its elegance Like a model wearing the wrong make-up for her own fashion parade Biting your lip and I know You are faking it, you are hating it Writing another lipstick letter, painting our script you're the artist Red for the love, white for the lies, black the cliches, I'll see it in your eyes Brush in some red, sketch in some blue, picture perfect, me and you Don't forget the title, "Inventing Tragedy in Black and White" Don't go blowing me a kiss Because you'll see it break down in all its elegance Like a model wearing the wrong make-up for her own fashion parade Painting my casualty, singing my tragedy But would you blow me a kiss? At the bottom of your letters All of my love All of my hate All of my love There's no melody that fits with drop-dead gorgeous Your name doesn't fit with the chorus or a line from her song But she's singing your tragedy, and her lipstick stains, me and you Now take a look at me Feel the... I'm drowning in You know I'm faking it for the sake of ruining your world Well you were something mixed in desire I can taste the fake in your breath, but I want more Would you blow me, would you blow me a kiss? But would you blow me a kiss? Would you blow me, would you blow me a kiss? I know you're looking at me Your look will drown in the depths of I know you're still bleeding It's in the air tonight Against the air I'd kill everything to Win a case with your face You're faceless Face

Your fingertips which can't uphold, bleeding red and white Look, you're writing on the walls With a simple note and a kiss far opened To the place that should be in safe sorrows You've got the whole world wrapped around your finger It's not in fashion black and white You've got the world dropping roses at your feet Be revered in your own tragedy Making sure the spotlight's in its place And I've the ashes like a feeling With the roses And now you've got your captain Many years may get it back It's not in fashion You've got the world applauding your evеry move It's not in fashion black and white You've got thе world screaming an encore It's not in fashion black and white All the blood Oh God, it's like a drug It's like the drug It's like the drug that was mine I couldn't see you Lacerating to see What beauty means Hypocrisy It's just beginning if the sails break Now to watch us find dissipated existence You've got the world wrapped around your finger It's not in fashion black and white You've got the world dropping roses at your feet It's not in fashion black and white Be revered in your own tragedy Making sure the spotlight's in its place And I've the ashes like a feeling With the roses And now you've got your captain Many years may get it back It's not in fashion You've got the world applauding your every move It's not in fashion black and white You've got the world screaming an encore It's not in fashion black and white For a million years (You lied) I couldn't replace the rose (In your eyes) Why did you need to pull the trigger? 'Cause now my face to wet my tears With me See the picture Over frustrating me In a dream I have the barrel in my face Hold me higher Why did you need to pull it? You pulled the trigger, fire alarm Had a gun to your own head You pulled the trigger, fire alarm Your fingertips which can't uphold, bleeding red and white Look, you're writing on the walls

NOO! How could I hurt you? Oh please stay the night, no more waking up with you We're going to sweep the plan, lullabies You're sleeping far too close to the edge, you're going to fall into the end One last chance to say goodbye, one last moment to show you love me Oh please let me hold your hand, let me try and take it all away Let me be your hero and look the cancer in the eye One last kiss goodbye, I can't believe you're gone But am I otherwise, I see myself in your arms One last kiss goodbye, this is goodbye forever But am I otherwise, a special place just for you Waking up in a cold sweat, I'll stop the tears And the pressure that sings you back to sleep I can't believe how your eyes still open and close The sickness, leading you away You're sleeping far too close to the edge, you're going to fall into the end One last chance to say goodbye, one last moment to show you love me Oh please let me hold your hand, let me try and take it all away Let me be your hero and look the cancer in the eye One last kiss goodbye, I can't believe you're gone But am I otherwise, I see myself in your arms One last kiss goodbye, this is goodbye forever But am I otherwise, a special place just for you Oh God! I'm waking up to find you didn't last the night Did you sleep easy? Or were you gasping your last breath? I need you to show the me in my dreams there’s no more living you How easy did you go? There’s too much that I had to see Look at what I've got to work with These stone cold, blank stares haunting me In every way You didn't want to follow I lived, but now you follow Did I return to you? Okay FUCK YOU! You didn't even think of what I needed, or how I feel You're only just a ghost to me now I can't even see or feel or want you anymore And these are my last words, before it's all over As you woke up and one last kiss, you fucking left So it's still fashion to spite you These are my last words, I fucking love you As you woke up These are my last words

Paint your lips blue Murder artistry Heartbreak and romance The cold is what you need for events such as this It's better being numb if you're cracking at the heart Pick up the rhythm, the timing that you'll need Tonight's final serenade, it's time to take your leave Dance the routine And your romance is warm inside Your heartbeat's racing Heartbreak is cold when you Don't dance, dream, sing our song Come get some Everything stops Everything starts Give me your hand One on one Two on two Three on three Dance step four The cold is what you need for events such as this It's better being numb if you're breaking at the heart Pick up the rhythm, the timing that you'll need Tonight's final serenade, it's time to take your leave Dance the routine And your romance is warm inside Your heartbeat's racing Heartbreak is cold when you Don't dance, dream, sing our song Poetic whispers of romance Fill the dancing midnight air Dance Dance Blood stained glass, shattered hopes And dancing dreams in your head I can't seem to find my steps In this murder

Take a deep breath in front of the mirror His conscience stares They place a curse on you Should I smash your face into the glass? Well then pick up the pieces Oh keep it short What you love the most Do you consider to keep turning (Round and around and around and around) The world's watching so keep turning (Round and around and around and around) You need to keep it down! (Round and around and around and around) The people you keep bringing in your life No place to go But such a perfect image It's not enough And it's what you want It's not what you need Fuck the pretty girl She ain't as bad as you Glitter your eyes to prove her wrong Do you consider to keep turning (Round and around and around and around) The world's watching And they're listening (Round and around and around and around) You need to keep it down! (Round and around and around and around) Thе people you bring in your life Thе world's turning Everybody's watching (Round and around and around and around) Do you consider to keep turning You can't recount What time (Your lipstick expires) You're fake on the outside; I think up oh too easy To see straight through you With your melted face First time that you're gone ROUND OH GOD Round and around Oh God Round and around, round and around Oh God (You keep turning) Round and around Oh God Round and around (Ahaha) round and around Round and around The worlds watching So keep turning Round and around You consider to keep turning Round and around The world's judging So keep turning OH

Kiss goodbye, to the poetic letters, the symptoms Of being able to breathe without a care Cushion the screaming, it's merely conversation in regards to Speaking for the sake of no concern Take the flight of a butterfly, drop dead Hear the whisper of the bullet's pace Have you ever felt; heartbreak, bullet, kiss your heart? Scream goodbye You're dropping dead And it's all over Say hello, to the clock counting down the seconds The bullets pace, your beating heart point A, point B! Let's see how quick you are Whether you'll risk it all on the line just to gain some ground To show you can soak up the shots fired Take the flight of a butterfly, drop dead Hear the whisper of the bullet's pace Have you ever felt; heartbreak, bullet, kiss your heart? Butterfly, you got to race the bullet's pace Butterfly, you got to race the bullet's whisper Butterfly, don't fall, got to keep up the chase Just scream goodbye Bleed, butterfly whisper got to crack break drop dead Bleed, butterfly whisper got to fracture Bleed, butterfly whisper got to crack break drop dead

Okay! Now you're bleeding thru the shades and words of tears You're fighting all the pain Strong enough to fight your fate And now your lungs are finally screaming out Tainting you thru upper clouds You left me as you know You are all alone Let's stop screaming You leave a whisper in the wind A casuality for all that's here A casuality for all to Know They'll pick you up But then they'll drop you down On the back of your head See how hard you hit the ground Like an angel falling from the sky You know that tries to casuality Blood overcame Cause the blood over weighs You failed and you need to fit it But they will not accept you But you will not survive this Oh! It blows, there's blood on her hands Their alter ego Cuz' they'll put in you This is if You're not careful! They'll break your waist And then what then? You're stranded on the ground! All alone! Again! Let's stop the screaming You leave the whisper in the wind A casuality for all that's here A casuality for all to Know They'll pick you up But then they'll drop you down On the back of your head See how hard you hit the ground Like an angel falling from the sky It's in the blood Let's stop the screaming You leave the whisper in the ground A casuality for all to see Let's stop the screaming (Screaming) You leave the whisper in the ground A casuality for all to see I know you are watching me As I fall from the sky Open your eyes! The character, black, black Open your eyes! The character, black, black Open your eyes! Open your eyes! Open your eyes! Open your eyes! They'll pick you up But then they'll drop you down On the back of your head See how hard you hit the ground Like an angel falling from the sky Oh God! Oh God! Open your eyes! Open your eyes! Open your eyes!
