The Nightmare

I'm so sick, so sick of waking throwing up
Killing time with wine in the dark, writing crimson lullabies
My liver's had enough tonight, tonight
Black lungs and bleeding gums
Be still my ashtray heart as my body slowly dies
In this nightmare anatomy
Our dreams are so sincere
Now you're as high as me
If you notice these codeine clouds
When it rains it pours, down on me
I was the boy with the thorn in his side
My whole world I painted black
I wanted to destroy everything beautiful
My whole world I painted black

Poison Hearts

Lay down your bones with my heart and your headstone
I lost control and let love tear us apart
We're not alone, I hear a million voices screaming out in pain
The lost souls again
Tonight these miserable bones shatter
As our hearts collide we accept this mess we're in
So we say goodbye to everything that matters
Because tonight these poison hearts won't change
Like hell I'll burn 'cause I don't want to fade
I'll never learn, always falling from grace
But I'm not alone, there are a million other hopeless souls like me
The heartless poison loves

Lungs

Hell no, these hollow bones were built for better than you know
Your bitterness, my bated breath, pretty vacant and alone
We live in dying skin from suffering, black fingernails and bone
So beautiful, so fucking strange
We're dying
Breathe a little death into the vultures around your head
We know everyone and everything dies alone
I have died almost a thousand times, in the safety of my mind
Like a ghost on a sea of wine, I am vacant and alone
I live in dying skin from suffering, black fingernails and bone
So beautiful, so fucking strange
I'm dying
Breathe a little death into the vultures around your head
We know everyone and everything dies alone
Breathe in, bleed out
You sold your lungs to sorrow
Such a handsome devil, so bitter and so cold

We sink a nail in the coffin and soak it down in gasoline
In the dark you're forgotten, just a sailor lost at sea
And like a mute I'm tongue tied, you know I'm always smoking just to breathe
We write a note in my own blood, won't you save me?
We can run like wolves into the night
These limbs of black and blue like your bloody valentine
So stay with me in this misery
We can dance into the dark, it's like a knife into your heart
Now my lungs feel like an ashtray, they're black until the bitter end
Little darling though you're here to stay, surely you know we were never friends
And now I'm choking on my insides and my lungs are too dead to breathe
We write a note in my own blood, won't you save me?
I'm not okay, won't you save me?
