my plans' to make you eat your
words
comes down to me against the world
so what im breaking up in flight
crash landings look so good at night
forgive this brand new appetite (((LACK OF APPETITE)))
i starve myself to feel alive
and i would
if i could just get out of bed
if i could get back on my feet
if i could get this off my chest
shout it out
shut it down
wrap it up
inside out
what if we set the world on fire?
but did not heed the warning signs
i know theres so much more to show
and now im standing back in line
there is no end to what id do
just to see my name in all your lights
my plan to knock you off your feet
will only bring me to my knees
now youve got me waiting in the wings
packing up and moving out to sea
and what i could have should have done
will have to haunt my constantly
speaking the truth
can be a curse
disguised as a rhyme
disguised as a verse
wrapped up in a lie
the mind of a child
just like you and i
disintegrate with time
the cracks that become gaps
become the spaces in between
feeding the rich
is eating the poor
if youre all full up
and still grab for more
then i have a plan
to resynthesize
the air that is wasted
while i exercise my 51%
because youre breathing up my air
if you can breathe
if you need space
between you and me
i may suffocate
but you wont catch me
waiting around
or set me aflame
or question my name
i failed to move
i didnt retreat
a simple mistake
between you and me
i see that you launched
off a davinci man
to come visit me
on a big golden disc
and a gun in his hand
but a smile on the face
betrays a sinister plan
well aint that a kick?
let me spin him around
then send it right back
returning to sender
postage due
aiming for the sun
not killing anyone
i let you finish first
cuz im already done
you know what i would do
before this night is through
run
run
run
run
now my blood is getting cold
and you are getting old
40 years in your desert
and this is what i get?
find the time to listen now
all the while we hollow out
all the crowds we plough aside
always take it right in stride.
hey you arent you on the payroll
yeah you arent you on the payroll too
good for me is good for me and you
caught up in the gears
filled up both my ears
struck a better deal
made a rounder wheel
maybe they will come for me
write my name in lights
for all to see
i have no fear of heights
found your big mistake
threw it in your face
moved to outer space
final resting place
so maybe they will come for me tonight
to write my name in lights
for all to see
i have no fear of heights
for you and me
maybe what we need to see tonight
is the miracle of flight
for all to see
i have no fear of heights
you can follow me
away from here
or you'll burn with them
the way they teach
the more we pray for change
the more we stay the same
you can second guess
the big machine
or watch it melt
with questioning
we all wonder
what
it means
while we pick
apart
the seams
we all wonder
what
it means
as we come
apart
at the seams
we all wonder
what
it means
while we fall
apart
at the seams
we burn up before we sell
outright
but what price do i have?
killing ourselves to stay awake
and death before average
no limit to what i would do for you
but i will not let you down
before i busted all your dams
i moved to higher ground
million ways i die tonight
million faces coincide
mirror held up straight tonight
see you from the other side
this machine is obsolete
failed to even launch
built a wall to shelter me
but thats already gone
marched in all your good parades
what good has that done?
built a shrine against your war
((...circumstantial evidence))
we lost before we won
million ways we die tonight
million faces coincide
mirror held up straight tonight
see us from the other side
he who came before
busted thru the door
he who came in peace
left going down in flames
my heads fallen out of line
find it talking all the time
catch me running still in place
watch me falling on my face
a hundred miles in your shoes
i see youre running out of news
and wheres that fire in your eyes?
so save all your dirty little lies
whats the cost of someone new?
whats a girl got to do?
you wait until theres nothing left
to make excuses with your dying breath
success today so impolite
so save up all your dirty little lies
they threw you out with all the trash
so i picked you up right off your ass
if we keep hearing we're the best
then fuck this town theres nothing left
i liked you more when there was danger in your eyes
so please repeat to me those dirty little lies
i'll watch over you you watch over me
ive got some promises to keep
walk on water more
and stay incomplete
im not the alien that you seek
just dont look around
under holy ground
pick up your torch and follow me
let us kill this beast
while the beauty sleeps
if you see things that i have seen
you might know, not to go, where ive been
lay down your sword and fall asleep
there is no future here
only an under tow
but now that my castle is complete
making daddy proud
seems so obsolete
we only play when mothers not around
so we can get away with a just little more
we want more and more and more
so we get more and more and more
armed my teeth
aiming high
on your shit advice
better off without
better off without
found disease
cut it out
failed to please
now i do without
come again?
pardon et moi?
but we're not friends
excuse my french
things you think
you miss
might be better off
without
limbs that you
cut off
you might regenerate
again
i'd beg apology
but what are you to me?
i'd hear your final plea
but what are you to me?
if youre looking
for nothing
you found it
if youre hunting
for something
(when) its gone
i answer for my sins
then commit them all again
he who hasnt lost
can never ever win
if i make you think again
or i break to you the news
no one ever wins
in a world with a girl like you
when you thirst for something new
you remember where you were when
you first began to thirst for
the thing you couldnt have then
so much for wasted youth
so much for loving you
so much for seeking truth
so much for fire proof
so much for cheaper thrills
so much for overkill
so much for in denial
so much for end of times
so much for liquid courage
so much for without worry
so much for in a hurry
so much for i am sorry
so much for alibi's
so much for in disguise
so much for penny wise
so much to recognize
so much for sneak attack
so much for fighting back
so what your hull is cracked
so what you gon' do now?
so much for in the know
so much for midnight show
so much for vertigo
so what you gon' do now?
just walk away for days
and walk away for miles
