Your stomach’s filled up but you’re starved for conversation
I know you’ll come in the night like a thief
But I’ve had some time alone, to hone my lying technique
I know you think that I’m someone you can trust
But I’m scared I’ll get scared and I swear I’ll try to nail you back up
So do you think that we can work out something?
So I’ll know that it’s you and that it’s over so I won’t even try
I know you’re coming for the people like me
But we all got wood and nails, we don’t turn out hate in factories
Yeah we all got wood and nails, we don’t turn out hate in factories
We all got wood and nails, and we sleep inside of this machine
You’re just jealous ‘cause I’m young and in love
Your stomach’s filled up but you’re starved for conversation
You’re spending all your nights growing old in your bed
And you’re tearing up your photos ‘cause you wanna forget… it’s over
If it makes you less sad, I will die by your hand
Hope you find out what you want, already know what I am
And if it makes you less sad, we’ll start talking again
You can tell me how vile I already know that I am
I’ll grow old, start acting my age
Be a brand new day, in a life that you hate
A crown of gold, a heart that’s harder than stone
And it hurts a whole lot, and it’s missed when it’s gone
Call me a safe bet, I’m betting I’m not
I’m glad that you can forgive
Only hoping as time goes… you can forget
“You are calm and reposed, let your beauty unfold.
Pale white like the skin stretched over your bones.
Spring keeps you ever close, you are second hand smoke.
You’re so fragile and thin, standing trial for your sins.
Holding on to yourself the best you can.
You’re the smell before rain, you are the blood in my veins.”
