These are some sick fucking lyrics. read up!
Untitled Xmas Song
Verse I
it always seems in winter that
my demons are even more receptive
to even the slightest poke or prod.
One moment I'm delirously happy,
and one criticism later, i sit
here with a razorblade pondering(contemplating?) my mortality.
Chorus
so let's drink egg nog in july,
and carve our pumpkins in december,
because im tired of living
the same year over and over again;
Verse II
There's never any time for me,
even when you have a day off
It's that awful Bing Crosby christmas bullshit
the world eats up to try to remain sane
during the most depressing time of year.
maybe if we didn't hinge all our hopes on one day,
we wouldn't be so fucked up.
(Chorus)
Verse III
my only diversion the varying chemicals
i abuse to make myself think
i've broken the cycle.
but sure enough December comes
and i sit by a tree listening to
punk rock xmas volume xxv (ex-ex-vee)
hoping my troubles, will,
for just one day,
elude me.
(Chorus)
i can only hope, no ability to pray,
as ive lost touch with the god
who never heard me anyway.
and then theres...
Bloodlust
Verse I
at night the light so bright outside my window
reminds me that this city never sleeps.
the waking dreams and nightmares
readily apparent on their faces,
searching for something to fully awaken them from this.
The pain a reminder of the hollow hearts
and empty spirits they experience.
bridge
silver bullet piercing cartilage
and needle driving into skin,
permanently scarring.
chorus
gun in hand needles piercing my skin
leaving behind blood and ink
my cross to bear, my rememberence of you
why the fuck do i do these things
why the fuck do I have these traces of you
Verse II
so open your eyes and pierce my skin,
i'm anxious for blood and i can't let it go.
crimson venom ripping from my wounds,
bleeding me dry as my heart.
if you leave i won't go on,
so pierce my skin as you did my soul,
leaving me incomplete without you.
(bridge/chorus)
Coda
so now my heart is torn
and thrown out on the floor
no "every moment together" anymore.
while you are sleeping, i'll be awake.
living out our own worst nightmares.
(chorus)
so yeah..enjoy! oh, and props to rob k donnelly on the chorus for bloodlust. its fucking sick, eh man? and feel free to comment about what an emo bastard i am or whatever.
later kids.
call me so we can hang out before i leave on the 2nd! (8X43462631)
