First stop found a new direction And I can't read your thoughts with no inflection Better get down Get down Full stop but it's coming closer Asks you if there's something wrong and you whisper "no, sir" You should get down Just get down It's getting late in the day And the sun is almost out Inhale the stench of decay And your time is almost out So get down Feel the air kiss your new-drenched skin Tonight's gonna be another rough one Close your eyes and let the silence take you in Gonna be another rough one So let's begin Size up all your opposition Can't afford to give away your own position Better stay low Stay low Size counts in a backwards town But you better stay standing just to take them down So just stay low Stay low It's getting late in the day So find your shelter now They're coming out soon to play And they rule the overground Feel the air kiss your new-drenched skin Tonight's gonna be another rough one Close your eyes and let the silence take you in Gonna be another rough one So let's begin Forget the world It's their turn now Forget your heart Just get out Feel the air kiss your new-drenched skin Tonight's gonna be another rough one Close your eyes and let the silence take you in Gonna be another rough one Feel the claws slash your red-stained skin Tonight's gonna be another rough one Clear your mind and let the violence drag you in Gonna be another rough one And you're all in

Trying to say That I don't need you here To help me find my way The pathway is clear to me But the words won't come The words that I need to hear They've left me out on my own Don't need you but I sure want you 'Cause I've lost touch Lost touch with my own sad heart And it's all just been too much Too much but it's time we parted Give it all I've given it all for you But all I can do is fall And try to reclaim the pieces I, I don't know what to think Think I'm right on the brink If the ground underneath can't hold me We keep on dancing around You could say it's profound The bond we share, maybe I'm imagining I wish you could understand my dilemma It's a delicate situation, there's no doubt I wish you could see my point of view 'Cause if I told the truth I know that you would shut me out Can I come clean for a minute Just one minute I just want you to know Trying to speak But all I can do is fear That you'll just abandon me And take wing into the silver air It's hard To understand what you want So I've tried to play my cards But the rules keep on changing and I Don't pity me It's hard enough to stand by And watch you become something That I cannot recognize You know I mean To do the best that I can But this world is hard it seems To tell what is good from bad I, I don't know what to think Think I'm right on the brink If the ground underneath can't hold me We keep on dancing around You could say it's profound The bond we share, maybe I'm imagining I wish you could understand my dilemma It's a delicate situation, there's no doubt I wish you could see my point of view 'Cause if I told the truth I know that you would shut me out Can I come clean for a minute Just one minute I just want you to know Please come back Please just return to me I've tried to move on but without you It's hard to breathe Hear my prayers Can you hear my soul Calling you home? Come home to me, please I hope you can understand my dilemma It's delicate but I think that we can figure out I hope you can see my point of view 'Cause I am telling you the truth so please don't shut me out If I come clean for a minute Just one minute I think you might already know

Fortune tellers give me heartache 'Cause they know I can't take Hearing what will come and break my heart But when the past comes back to haunt me Whirring, churning, flaunting, All my past mistakes are daunting memories Sleeping with a plastic cover on the bed Will it save me from the monsters in my head? The books upon my shelf won't read to me tonight I guess I'll turn off all the lights now Give and take from me All the sweet and sour things In my memory That I can't take with me again Screw me over but Keep a four-leaf clover near You're gonna need it when the truth blows over you again Fruit flies landing on the window Whisper that I can't go Just because you don't know where to find me now It's just a short fixation On my own elation Just need a small vacation from reality right now Sleeping with an angel perched above the bed Save me from the thoughts of you inside my head The doll upon the shelf stares into my dead eyes I guess it's really no surprise now Give and take from me All the sweet and sour things In my memory That I can't take with me again Screw me over but Keep a four-leaf clover near You're gonna need it when the truth blows over you again Give and take from me All the sweet and sour things In my memory That I can't take with me again Screw me over but Keep a four-leaf clover near You're gonna need it when the truth blows over you again

The day has come to close my eyes On the daylight, on the nighttime All the shadows come to life Blot out the daylight, inside of my mind I know what you see when you look inside of me My madness calls to you, but there's nothing you can do I know the truth Goodbye my friends you all are gone It won't be long, the end of my song All my words will carry on It can't be wrong, to sing of longing I know what you see but no happier you'll be To understand me My madness poisons you and there's nothing you can do You'll be this way too My shame has brought me here to this Give death a kiss, I'm on her list She will take me by the hand I understand what she commands
