Within this instant The moon is but pathetic slivers on my Earth The storm was hell Oh, but the calm was worse Using you up like the flame uses trees Never saw my fate lie with your expertise These pills I take, yeah, they do stop the ache But I couldn't really say they took the pain away What you tell me I couldn't ever repeat And if she can't need me, then, well I'll watch her leave. I can't save her I'll set my sights on destroying the world And when I go just burn away my soul Don't bother to replace my head with stone And scatter the rest of me With you Brushing from your face The darkness I found you in It seems so light Compared to what I found in you Writing the night out in black and blue (Close your eyes) It's a simple glow (Right hand down) Separating us (Right at the waistline) Counting down the times (Watch me drown) That you have to try Watch the ocean grab me again And when I go just burn away my soul Don't bother to replace my head with stone And scatter the rest of me

Before you I remember evenings With falling cold Bless me again Write down your plans for me That are clawing at my back Around Towards That redeeming quality We always fought about Drinking what the Devil gave you Will only make you Burn faster Holding hope for A commending outcome 'Cause if she's gone Then so am I Latin over My left eye Habits were coming and going Just as the rules were Set in place I feel I'm drinking your face Disapproving silence At the end of every ounce Stop teasing me With hurricanes My world's on fire And I'm not there Drinking what the Devil gave you Will only make you Burn faster Holding hope for A commending outcome 'Cause if she's gone Then so am I So am I This was the moment I knew that Fun had come to an end Waiting for the drink to cool To imbibe and feel the fire Once again I've never helped before Reanimate Keep everyone calm Within my reach and out of touch Wrath of the outpost Directed towards you As far as I can see Drinking what the Devil gave you Will only make you Burn faster Holding hope for A commending outcome 'Cause if she's gone Then so am I

You make your wishes On my eyelashes Head out the window Backseat at the end of the road Dedicate me now to the pour And how she decays Who's to say what name She'll be screaming out tonight I could never let you see me fail I have slept with the light off For too many nights This anxiety is making up for All the times you made my heart Miss a beat You and your not so sober decisions Could one of those decisions be me I'm giving you one last chance to Blow my mind I don't drink like that Blow my mind Just one more time I don't drink like that Just blow my mind The quicker The better You know that This anxiety is making up for All the times you made my heart Miss a beat You and your not so sober decisions Could one of those decisions be me I'm giving you one last chance There's a fear in me That it's not just here There's a fluid everywhere Seldom relenting All encompassing I can't stop What I can't see You don't love What you don't set free You can't trust What you don't believe Any longer and she'll stop breathing Stop now to avoid the shock Take a drink. Stop freezing Who knows what'll happen to your heart Anything seems better than this You don't love What you can't set free

Here we are at the start again Ironic that it's just all so antiquated "Blaming yourself won't help her. Hurting yourself by clawing dirt." Do you find it harder to believe When that's the only thing that you need? You hurt yourself Trying to figure it out Just do yourself a favor Just keep it coming The empty bottle's comfort Sometimes it's just nice to know You're there. I know It's just a one sided love Something to hurt myself Trying to figure it all out I'm the dust that your breath gave life to Now you have me on your hands Just as it occurs to me I've earned this lifelong sentence to lonely Earning every bag of silver Along my estranged direction You keep me tethered You keep me close Despite my weathered body And empty throat Though you're not tangible And I can't feel you You are my memory You can't escape no matter what you do

Sunset in the rear-view Driving towards the dark Eastbound during twilight Losing my mind by selling my heart Looking for a victim While I'm searching for me Sleep schedule schemes From my lips there isn't a word That I won't make you believe Best lie wins If I could keep a secret then maybe I'd let the tensions dissolve away I'd let it all go more and more We fell in love in a sea Made up of electricity Mind the gap! She points a finger to my chest And begins to trace what it is I'm missing "You used to have such heart" Dance in sheets High in streets Look all the way down And you'll see Shooting stars Mistaken for passing cars If you could keep a secret then maybe I'd let the tensions dissolve away I'd let it all go more and more We fell in love in a sea Made up of electricity I'm burying your memory But why stop there? Let's throw in your body too Yeah, the one you know you liked to share Like you had something to prove If pain's the only thing That reminds you that you're alive I'd hate to convince you That you've died

Before, I had Dreams beyond the stars And now It's a nightly dance with poison Burning down the neighborhood I've never seen these colors before You matter as much as Medusa's touch When your gaze was just enough And after all those drafts you wrote And I wish this wasn't so familiar You promised me wings Then took away my sky Sky? No, there's no sky tonight Just a distorted decency So sorry for apologizing Drowning with the devil Offering her hand She tries to drag me deeper, deeper Burning down the neighborhood I've never seen these colors before You matter as much as Medusa's touch When your gaze was just enough And I've gone AWOL in a bottle And I've given up on any hope for second chances She has got a fire Starting up inside her heart And there's gasoline Filling up her bloodstream Burning down the neighborhood I've never seen these colors before You matter as much as Medusa's touch When your gaze was just enough And I drink faster than I should And it makes me feel more like a god It's not necessarily a grave​

Green eyes Keep me locked in Gold eyes Keep me fiending It's your time To decide When it's all over Virulent To my sober Can you taste the difference Within a second Her hand just moved But her shadow stayed Quite still Strictly masked Children tacked To the wall Neon nests Leaving prints In the snow I want the ability To be nowhere We too are of fire and We want his blood Keep the dew drops falling Controlled burning When I'm done with you There's no place you can hide (Keep the dew drops Keep the dew drops falling Control your burning while inside When I'm done with you There's no place that you can hide) Dimorphic disorder Your green eyes stargaze As I stole the flowers from the grave There's some truth In the words you write And I'll show you proof That there's no god A cemetery kiss From a body I'll miss But there's no stopping me You can't stop me now If I could touch her but once I know that she would come Body pulsing And her leg going numb This is where It took a turn Keep breathing Keep singing I reach out But nothing's listening There's no god here Mirror's ink Darkest shine It's what you're seeing Just keep breathing Just keep breathing​
