I would search the sky for days on end
For your burning star, my only friend
As I lace the constellation around my fingers
I won’t stop my myself as my mind lingers
How is it that you sleep at night?
Without a sound, an alluring sight
I want to watch, but not be seen
And fill in every blank between
There’s not a sound, but the silence is deafening
And the taste of morning is purely threatening
Maybe this time I’ll catch it if you throw me a sign
The past is still engraved on the walls of my mind
Where the graffiti consists solely of your name
Once again I’ll let you play me in this game
Baby one more time, It’s the perfect crime
Your unexpected expenses will smother my senses
So crash my window with rocks until it breaks apart
The perfect picture of what you’ve done with my heart
The hottest piece of ass this town has ever seen
Perfectly positioned, everywhere and in between
Now I’m writing your song as I try to keep my balance
Walking along on my ribbon of wishes
If you didn’t go, I’d have tied it tight around your neck
Knotted in a bow to make sure that you’d never forget
Best think up something new to say
Because your parallel lines are so yesterday
This sad storybook has broken its spine
With all those held-back words of mine
Now you finally know all the feelings I’ve felt
So show off and where them like the studs on your belt
You make me weaker, Kryptonite
Mascara runs in color tonight
One eye cries red, and the other a deep blue
For the starless sky I stood beneath while bleeding out the truth.
And while you flaunt that famous charm and luck
My eyes are shooting bullets and im hoping you dont duck
Grab me by the hand and say
We’ll be alright come Saturday
Where the weekdays end so the drama can start
But either way you’re still in my heart
I know you’ll let me down in monotone
So take every battered word I own
Break them down to the smallest they’ll get
Only meaningless letters of the alphabet
Causing breakdowns in communication
We won’t break through with solicitation
Cause now you'll be on your own with broken bridges you can’t cross,
And tonight I’ll put all of me into praying that you end up lost.
Nothing we ever say comes out as truth
But I’ll find a way to use it all as proof
That you were wrong, and I’ll take you down
Soon you’ll be breathing in the ground
Paging the impossible, I wish you’d come to call
And entertain with some new excuse for us all
Every word you say, I have learned to doubt
So throw up and rid them all of your mouth
Taste regret as it rises in your throat
Ashamed to say we’ve ended on a bad note
-natt. <3
