she sits alone in the corner of the room, she stares at walls and thinks they talk but they don’t talk at all her bedroom walls are all she’s ever known she has no friends to call the walls laugh at her flaws she breaks apart piece by piece bits of her heart fall on the ceiling she’s lost all sense of gravity chorus there is no other way to say this i am falling into pieces I’ve forgotten how to stand there is no such thing as lucid eyes, but maybe you can find mine in a sea of cemetery lies there is no cure for the state I’m in i lied too many times so i decided to tell them my weakness its different when you bring the pain its different cuz when i see the rain, i remembered what its like to be afraid chorus

oh, come what may we might not live to see another day so please just stay all my life i had to live with being another face in the crowd no one sees no one knows they don’t know about me im a nobody prechorus electric eyes in the dark light up the soul with just one spark its another revolution in their hearts chorus I’m taking back what is mine i cannot live with being a shrinking violet you are just another rose in the meadow and i cry cuz you are all the same whats the point of living for fame? this is becoming violent i scream in red and violet just to get your attention cuz there is no other way to get it i have to drill through the cracks of your mind just for you to see me because when you walk past me you seem blind pre chorus chorus "whats the point of screaming your name?" pre chorus “in my heart” chorus

V1 So long for now my bright-eyed little one I'd see at night. We'll meet again when the moon hides from the light. This won't be for long, so just stay strong. We'll always find a way, a way back home. Pre-chorus You used to whisper in my ear that we're alright here. You are my way home, you are all I've ever known. Chorus This is a warning, I need you here. This is a war zone, I begin to fear. There's always shame, there's always pain, there is no luck, there is no love, When you're not here, I'll always need you right here, Like it was home. V2 Farewell to all the shadows I used to see. I'll say goodbye to all the voices that didn't hear me. Where is the home we used to know? Where is the home I used to grow Up out of place; it's never the same. Pre-chorus You whispered in my ear, "I lied we aren't safe here." You are my home, now this is what I know. Chorus (1x) Bridge It's always hard to breathe, It's always hard to me. This feels quite new Though it's always been you. Chorus (1x) (Changed chorus) This is a warning, why aren't you here? This is a war zone, please come I fear. End I always need you right here, like it was home. Can we get back home? You are all I'll ever know.

colorful kaleidoscope eyes in a colorless world of lies and i can’t bear to see you cry like this at night when did you know about this secret life of mine? i thought you wouldn’t know cause I’ve been hiding it for so long since youve been gone I’ve been surviving off of metaphorical melancholy do you feel sympathy? I know cause its above my apathy your eyes became colorless when you blinked at me did i take something of yours? cause apparently your sadness is caused by me i regret knowing this side of you i didnt realize it was opposite to the real you

Gun It 04:16
she’s just another girl that dreams in color she’s just another girl that blooms like a flower the only difference between her and someone else she’s the only reason that you are breaking down shell hide behind those white lies she’ll hide behind those eyes she’s just a rock n roll disaster on mulholland drive but how should i say this… chorus she’s just another mess disguised in a dress she’s just a head case in ripped skinny jeans— I’m just saying— she wouldn’t be me she’s just another test wearing a denim vest she’s just another heartbreak waiting to be— I’m just saying— she shouldn’t be me she’s just another girl that spits in black and white she’s just another girl that follows the light the only difference between her and me you’re the only thing that will come in between she’ll hide behind those street lights she’ll follow all the signs but good girls do what they’re told and im not one of yours and i shouldnt say this, but.. chorus she’s just another mess disguised in a dress she’s just a head case in ripped skinny jeans— I’m just saying— she wouldn’t be me she’s just another test wearing a denim vest she’s just another heartbreak waiting to be— I’m just sating— she shouldn’t be me bridge and no matter how many times I’ve told you so nobodys gonna take you from me, no (2x) (not even her) chorus

capo 6 (g, d, Em, c) oh (v1) you were the one thing i need to keep me alive, but lately I've been a flatline you were always by my side, but one day those electric eyes sparked my mind (pre chorus) oh, where did i go wrong? oh, why do i sing this song? (chorus) laurie, you were my only, the only one that could keep me alive laurie, you were my only, the only lifeline to escape the eyes oh (v2) you were the one thing i held true, but i guess it wasnt meant to be you 'cause you left me, even though you loved me, i could read past your mirrored eyes my dear. (pre chorus) (chorus) bridge (g, Em, Am, d) and every single day i stare at the walls as they talk and every single day their arguments get louder, the voices will enshroud her and i should protect her (chorus) laurie, you're still my only, now it's my turn to be your lifeline
