Cemetery Lies
04:06
|

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

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”

Like It Was Home

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.

Metaphorical Melancholy
03:53
|
|||
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

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)

(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
