If my tongue is the blade Then your hand is the gun One of us ain't going home tonight If my tongue is the blade Then your hand is the gun One of us ain't going home tonight This is what fear tastes like Go ahead and make me numb No way around it, no one inside I was never listening 'cause you were never right Never right You've got me wrong How did we end up like this? I've lost myself Please, God, give me a chance You've got me wrong This is all so damn useless I'm done with you I'm done - this is so damn useless I don't believe at all That I'm the monster you make me Don't understand it Don't need your grace You were never listening To the words I said You've got me wrong How did we end up like this? I've lost myself Please, God, give me a chance You've got me wrong This is all so damn useless I'm done with you I'm done - this is so damn useless If my tongue is the blade Then your hand is the gun One of us ain't going home tonight You've got me wrong How did we end up like this? I've lost myself Please, God, give me a chance You've got me wrong This is all so damn useless I'm done with you I'm done - this is so damn useless

Old familiar face That bitter taste She's been hangin' round too long That crooked tongue So pale, so young Makes me warm Take me to the darkness Hang me out to dry Tangled in your legs In the webs of your lies Lead me to the rapture Set my body free Higher than the flames Set blaze inside of me Whoa There's no turning back There's no coming down I'm forever lost There's no coming down Oh, I'm skin and bones Pale as a ghost Well I know that I should be moving on But in your embrace You know I'll never change Hopeless I am chained down on my knees Take me to the darkness Hang me out to dry Tangled in your legs In the webs of your lies Lead me to the rapture Set my body free Higher than the flames Set blaze inside of me There's no turning back There's no coming down I'm forever lost There's no coming down When you call my name I'm never far away When you call my name I know there's no escape Take me to the darkness Hang me out to dry Tangled in your legs In the webs of your lies Lead me to the rapture Set my body free Higher than the flames Set blaze inside of me Whoa There's no turning back There's no coming down I'm forever lost There's no coming down

Let’s get this straight I’m fine without you I’m not your fucking prey So save yourself And no one else What you believe Your life is a lie Get over it You got the best of me You stabbed me in the back I taste you on my teeth You’re like a heart attack And I’m not okay I’m headed down the drain I still feel safe Down here where I belong So where were you When I fell out Went back into the dark I’m lost again So don’t come find me What you believe Your life is a lie Get over it One day you might be hungry

Everyday is numb Oh, I hold my tongue Nothing's gonna bring me hope, no I'm hanging on Tunnel with the lights turned off Oh, I know you're near Drawing me like a moth, no I'm closer to your flame It's harder to explain It's easier to sleep Than to face it awake Open up my eyes and show me salvation Wake this body up 'cause I'm tired of sleepin' Oh, and there's no heartbeat, something's wrong with me Help, please, I can barely breathe Wake me, give me a reason, reason Inside these walls Oh, I'm safe and sound You will never see me fall, no Or hit the ground Maybe this is just a cry for help Maybe I should just forget myself Is this the reason that I go through hell? Is this the reason that I dream it all away Withdrawal and medicate It's easier to sleep Than to face it awake Open up my eyes and show me salvation Wake this body up 'cause I'm tired of sleepin' Oh, and there's no heartbeat, something's wrong with me Help, please, I can barely breathe Wake me, give me a reason, reason I know when the lights go out No one will find me Behind the darkest cloud I run for safety I know if I let you in I might be free again I wish that I could be like you Open up my eyes and show me salvation Wake this body up 'cause I'm tired of sleepin' Oh, and there's no heartbeat, something's wrong with me Help, please, I can barely breathe Wake me, give me a reason, reason Wake me, give me a reason, reason Wake me, give me a reason

I'm running around in here Spinning in circles inside my head But I retrace the steps to retrace steps I just retrace the steps to retrace steps I've learned to embrace the fear And nothing I believe will take me Past the edge I'm past the edge Past the edge I'm past the edge And you've left me with no choice My hands are tied and I won't listen Bloodlust is real I never thought I'd be right here But the bloodlust is real You can't make me feel alive I will be your animal You can be my cannibal Everything is closing in Surrounded by the darkness And I dive right in and I dive right in I cannot swim but I dive right in Vision is blurred and I start to spin The walls come crashing down And I'm alone again, I'm alone again Alone again, I'm alone again And you left me no choice The urge is real and you can't help me Bloodlust is real I never thought I'd be right here But the bloodlust is real You can't make me feel alive I will be your animal You can be my cannibal I wrote a letter that you'll never read I shed a tear that you'll never see I'm buried with these words that I never speak I am the darkness that you'll never see Bloodlust is real Bloodlust is real Bloodlust is real I never thought I'd be right here But the bloodlust is real You can't make me feel alive I will be your animal You can be my cannibal

This is my emergency Let me feel your apathy Are we swimming in the same ol' sea? The one where you don't care to rescue me There's water in my lungs again The moon's reflection has no end The taste of salt my biggest sin The taste of you my only sin You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay This is my emergency Let me feel your apathy Hold me underneath the cold moonlight Where I believe every lie you told to me Tell me once more that I'm safe I never believed, so give me faith The fear of death is sinking in I'd rather die than sink with you You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay You can't make it okay

I used to think I had it all Somehow I fell back into habits that tear me apart I never got to say I'm sorry But I can't sleep alone tonight If it's good for me and it's good for you If I die tonight, then I'll make it up to you You're the only thing that gets me high And I hate it, and I hate it You're the only thing that gets me high And I hate it, and I hate it I'm tangled up in my own image But I hate who's staring back at me If it's the truth I seek, it's the truth you'll serve If my soul is weak, then I'll make it up to you You're the only thing that gets me high And I hate it, and I hate it You're the only thing that gets me high And I hate it, and I hate it I'm just a user I'm just a user I'm just a user 'Cause I used you up to my end If you could see me now I wear a beggar's crown If I could turn back time I wouldn't change a fuckin' thing God, erase me We don't deserve the life you give I don't deserve the life you give God, I can't change at all We don't deserve the life you give I don't deserve the life you give You're the only thing that gets me high And I hate it, and I hate it You're the only thing that gets me high And I hate it, and I hate it

Head in the clouds Isn't there some other way? Feet off the ground I've fucked up my only escape God... Can't escape I never stood a chance anyway I never tried that hard You never listened to the words I say I fear it, I fear it, I fear it Alone at the top of the world I forgot it was safe down below I used to be so afraid Now the darkness it swallows me whole Alone at the top of the world Cut the cord, let me float far away I never asked you for this So don't tell me that I'm to blame I'm not coming down It's too late, it's too late for me So just give up now I've blocked out the sight and the sound Now I'm up here by myself You never gave a shit I wish that I was someone else Do you feel it? You feel it? You feel it? Alone at the top of the world I forgot it was safe down below I used to be so afraid Now the darkness it swallows me whole Alone at the top of the world Cut the cord, let me float far away I never asked you for this So don't tell me that I'm to blame Hold your breath Choke on my words Hold your breath Choke on my words Don't get me started I'm not your pawn anymore I've come all this way alone I'm on my own Alone at the top of the world I forgot it was safe down below I used to be so afraid Now the darkness it swallows me whole Alone at the top of the world Cut the cord, let me float far away I never asked you for this So don't tell me that I'm to blame I'm not to blame

Open up my brain Tell me what you see I can't find a thing Won't you rescue me? Rescue me Help me stay awake I've been skipping days I'm not making sense Time, it has no frame Has no frame Daylight dreaming Darkness seeking Daylight dreaming There must be some kind of way out of this Way out of this Daylight dreaming Darkness seeking Daylight dreaming There must be some kind of way out of this Way out of this Can't keep faking it I am not myself Selling you blank stares I have lost my way Lost my way Way out of this Way out of this Way out of this Way out of this Daylight dreaming Darkness seeking Time has no frame! Well I belong right here Where the light runs from me I don't believe in fear 'Cause this place can't haunt me Well I belong right here Where the light runs from me I don't believe in fear 'Cause this place can't haunt me

Should have died about a thousand times or maybe more Don't remember any lives that ever came before In my head I'm more dead than alive It's a shame you won't understand Gonna let the rain come down on me and wash away Gonna give away my innocence, my sympathy In this moment I'm lost and I did it myself There's no one to blame You can't save my life These events are already in motion So don't waste my time You keep talking me back off the ledge Your words unheard Dragging me down once again When I'm living a lie When I'm shut down inside When I'm chasing a high When I'm chasing a high I am still alive but I am just an empty shell I give myself away to this lonely hollow hell In my head I'm afraid that I can't trust myself You won't understand You can't save my life These events are already in motion So don't waste my time You keep talking me back off the ledge Your words unheard Dragging me down once again When I'm living a lie When I'm shut down inside When I'm chasing a high All hope is lost All hope is lost All hope is lost You can't save my life These events are already in motion So don't waste my time (don't waste my time) You keep talking me back off the ledge Your words unheard Dragging me down once again When I'm living a lie When I'm shut down inside When I'm chasing a high When I'm chasing a high When I'm chasing a high There is no fix There is no fix There is no fix

I let it happen again I failed myself I failed my friends Check my pulse, I'm alive Did it cross your mind Cross your mind I gave up I gave up Take the keys to my car Just drive me far Far away From this hospital bed Where my soul is sick And I'm scared of it I gave up Somebody help me I gave up I gave up I gave up Every day is a lie Every mile a mountain Mountain Every day is a lie Every mile a mountain Mountain I give up I gave up Somebody help me I gave up I gave up I gave up Every day is a lie Every mile a mountain I gave up Somebody help me I gave up

Dragged out on my back Everyone look - I'm still a wreck Are you happy now? I can't hear you, are you happy now? 'Cause the damage is done, I'm the damaged one I know something 'bout loneliness You know nothing, you never did You say I've walked alone, but don't you fear my friend I've faced my death alone I know how it feels to be a ghost...ghost... I'm just a ghost You say it follows me where I go I'm a ghost Don't make me swallow my tongue 'Cause the damage is done, I'm the damaged one I know something 'bout loneliness You know nothing, you never did You say I've walked alone, but don't you fear my friend I've faced my death alone I know how it feels to be a ghost...ghost...
