Endlessly, She Said
This is what I brought you. This you can keep. This is what I brought. You may forget me. I promise to depart just promise one thing. Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep. This is what I brought you. This you can keep. This is what I brought. You may forget me. I promise you my heart just promise to sing. Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep. This is what I thought, I thought you'd need me. This is what I thought, so think me naïve. I'd promise you a heart you'd promise to keep. Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep.
So, I'm feeling much worse now. You're better. Your designer drug won't work for me. Connect to a three volt. I hope your battery dies. How could you run on such voltage? All the same, I remain the one to blame and I'm demonized, purified, justified as you let yourself show. So now you'll love these screams, what's left of me. Love these screams like I do. Don't speak my name. As the infinite stops cold just nine and the six are gone. Guess I was the one to ride that dirty ride that is turning so fast now I cannot hold on but, at this pace, who would want to? Don't ever speak my name again. So, now you'll love these screams, what's left of me. Love these screams like I do.
Hey Miss Murder can I make beauty stay if I take my life? With just a look they shook and heavens bowed before him. Simply a look can break your heart. The stars that pierce the sky, he left them all behind. We're left to wonder why he left us all behind. Dreams of his crash won't pass. Oh, how they all adored him. Beauty will last when spiraled down. The stars that mystified, he left them all behind and how his children cried. He left us all behind. What's the hook, the twist within this verbose mystery? I would gladly bet my life upon it that the ghost you love, your ray of light will fizzle out without hope. We're the empty set just floating through, wrapped in skin, ever searching for what we were promised... reaching for that golden ring we'd never let go... but who would ever let us put their filthy hands upon it? Hey Miss Murder can I make beauty stay if I take my life?
Listen when I say it's real. Real life is undefined. How could you be so missable? Everything you take makes me more unreal. Real lines go undefined how could this be so miserable? Under the summer rain I burnt away. You turned away. Listen. I can't make a sound or feel fine, I kissed the lies. Why must they be so kissable? Listen as I break the fourth wall's seal. Gorgeous eyes shine suicide. When will we be invisible? This is the fall. This is the long way down and our lives look smaller now... and our lives look so small.
Forever waiting for disaster. What David calls servant and master, will you play it too? As this displacement begs for water, swimming, bathing, drowning in Sorrow, scream with me. I crawl across this cracked expansion. I'll be buried soon beneath the sand with pure intentions, wanting something, someone to follow. For a change I'll refrain from hiding all of me from you. Here's my lullaby - pray for rain, lose your name and watch all your dreams fall through. Hush now don't you cry. I swoon upon my knees come crashing. Will you bury me? Today, this small favor I'm asking. Hold me. You may drop me tomorrow. Calm down. Come down, cold resides with me. I flee to decemberunderground. As you exhale I breathe in the waterunderground and I'll grow pale without you.
Warn your warmth to turn away. Here it's December every day. Press you lips to the sculptures and surely you'll stay for of sugar and ice, I am made. It's in the blood. I met my love before I was born. He wanted love. I taste of blood. He bit my lip and drank my war from years before. She exhales vanilla lace. I barely dreamt her yesterday. Read the lines in the mirror through the lipstick trace "Por Siempre." She said "it seems you're somewhere far away." to his face. It's in the blood. I met my love before I was born. She wanted love. I taste of blood, she bit my lip and drank my war from years before. Love like winter.
Every night devise new heights in genocide. Lover I am loveless. All my friends and I toast health and suicide. Lover, I am lonely. Were you holding hands when my palms bled? Oh, I will be all right... just use me. The future's bright without me. Spend some time walking the line. World is unified. Ennui, and I divide. Lover, I am loveless. Red days and burning might bleed, till the faceless die. Oh, lover I am lonely. Were you holding hands when my wrists bled? So stay sweetly numb. Remain lifeless, love. So stay sweetly numb. Maintain lifeless love.
One at a time constants become surreal. One at a time heart attacks are concealed. I can see that I lose the joys of life one at a time. Suicides are revealed. You will see that I lost another life but tonight I'll let you tear it up if you don't wake me up. But, if you tear it up we can't repair it so please don't wake me up until someone cares. Now, no one cares. One at I time I watched them all forget. One at a time I'm lost in little deaths. It's the place that I forget my life, like tonight. Will the flood behind me put out the fire inside me? I'll let you tear it up if you don't wake me up but if you tear it we can't repair it. So, please don't wake me up until someone cares. Now, no one cares. I'll let you tear it up if you don't wake me up because it's apparent that you don't care and it's sunk into me because I don't care. Now no one cares.
Watch the stars turn you to nothing. Now blush and smile as they whisk you away. Part your lips a bit more. I'll swallow your fear. I will show you how all the bite marks impress a need to be here, a need to see city lights, like rain, dance and explode, fall upon debutants reeling from nights that kiss and control all of our broken hearts. Velvet burns the wrists while restraining. You blushed and smiled and said you would stay. One more time steal my breath. I'll feed you the sky. I will show you how. Steal the glamour from death and before you die, oh, you should see city lights, like rain, dance and explode, fall upon debutants reeling like nights that kiss and control all of our broken hearts. "We all want to die like movies stars," you said as you jumped from the height of our cutting room floor while above us, glowing, exploding, our dreams burst forth in light and death. Hold me and tell me "We'll burn like stars. We'll burn as we fall. Watch as city lights dance for us."
Five a.m. on the bathroom floor from the night before, do you find me dreadful? What a shame such a sad disgrace. Such a pretty face but she's not regretful. Am I beautiful? Am I useable? It's killing time again. Put on your face and let's pretend these killing lights won't kill us all again. Three a.m. on the city street (when the air is sweet.) I have had my mouth full but it seems that outside the screen such a pretty face often will look dreadful. Am I beautiful? Am I useable? It's killing time again. Put on your face and let's pretend these killing lights won't kill us all again. It's killing time again. Cover your face and we'll pretend these killing lights can't kill us all again. You see, they always remember. They never forget a face when they cut, cut you up. They remember.
Bring your secrets to me. Just give me your hand and I'll let you feel the wounds they put in me. If you believe in me how can I be dissolving? If you'd believe me I'd tell you everything. Do you fall too? Yes, I fall. Do you want to fall into me? Every time that I try to pacify I fall. Silence can you hear me? Press me to your lips and I'll suck the poison out. Who will heal me? If you keep killing me how can I keep absolving? Your sins into me, begin the poisoning. Time, we're not waiting. Time, we're no one.
Walked into our world and made horrible sounds. I can still hear them today. Strangely, they seem beautiful now thought they outlast my love. Still, each time I always meant every word, every one. Though, in time they finally bent every word, every one. "I will wait for you," she said, "endlessly." "I will wait for you." So spoke misery. I returned to you but found my empty home. The radio told me to stay. As it burned down I sang alone. You will outlast, my love. I have been waiting for you, biting as you taught me to. I have come to relieve you of life and love.
