i always play the fool. i'm this years' nominee. falling backward wasn't so hard. try to remember remember. but that was a long time ago. wear your mind. raise your glass. try to remember. where you're at. try to remember. where you're at. try and try. you tell me that love won't break your heart. i'll tell you yeah you live forever. in a lie you'll never see. say there's nothing to be afraid of. that there's nothing really there. but that was a long long time ago. raise your glass. raise your glass. to death the new revolution. to death the new revolution

it's about a quarter till two. and all that you thought you knew. about the truth is old news. wish i came with a kill switch. but i'm so energized. with love and lies and questions. like who the hell am i. who the hell are you. who the hell am i. how long must i wait. what the hell am i. what the hell are you. what the hell am i. how long must i wait. so i put my mind to the test. and now i'm on a quest to be the best. as i smolder. this is the way to kill. your wandering gaze. your dizzy haze. you're up in flames. tonight we'll light ourselves on fire. in spite of all the good days we've never known. we'll burn at the stake. and start to bake. so we can find the center of you. so burn baby burn. you're so flammable. i want you to burn

hear the sounds of the subway station call. i'm thinking all about human condition. i wish that i could paint myself invisible. or at least take me out of the phone book. last night. i was ready to pull the plug. that fueled the light in my eyes. and i know i should be happy. i take my medication. cause it will make me happy. a psychosomatic way of life. maybe i'll fly down to mexico. just get me through the next seventy two. spinning around. my head is all over town. and i could love you better than he can. last night i was ready. and london bridge is falling down again. and i deserve to be happy. tonight i'll dream in the green green grass. and smile with smoke filled lungs. but i know i'll dream of a painful past. and sleep with psychotic eyes. and i know if i can. i'll try it all over again. so i take my medication. cause it will make me happy. and it will make me whole

you're so eager to keep moving. never satisfied with distance and time. just don't drag me around with you. this is where i want to be right now. and we'll play these games with bells on. you can return me. i come with a receipt. exchange for a better boy. one that doesn't get annoyed. one that's all smiles. and is attached with strings. and we'll play these games with bells on. you're dragging me all around. you're dragging my arms around. you're dragging my legs around. and we start to change. cause nobody stays the same. and if we play these games we'll break. you're dragging me all around. you're dragging my arms around. you're dragging my head around. you're dragging my legs around. you're dragging my heart around. this is the last time

dreaming of my past life. can't remember who i used to be. now and then it hits me. like a hurricane in my head. your eyes said so many things. never could decipher your code. even now i know. the worst of a bad situation. i believed every word that you said. i believed infinity. i'm coming over. we'll straighten this out tonight. i'm coming over. let's straighten this out tonight. lies that surround you. i don't believe. i don't believe. i don't believe. i don't believe anymore

under the covers. i hold my breath. i hide my head. from alarm clocks and lovers. that wake me when i wish i were dead. what do you want from me. wake me when i'm not over it. i can't think straight with nothing left to say. said it all when i was sober. legion of liars. don't want to face another day. what am i here for. why do i treat myself this way. you said you had enough of me. you said you had enough of this lie. what do you want from me. you can't believe i'm not over it. can't think straight. with everything to say. come to think i'm irrelevant. and they say my time will come. and they say my day will come. but it's walking straight away from me. can't think straight. with everything to say. come to think i'm not over it. can't believe you said you had enough of me. away from me

went for a walk today. left me feeling empty. a bitter chill in the air. a heart with a great big tear. this coffee is burning my hands. i look at the tops of the buildings. and wait for the angel to come down. and tell me everything is going to be fine. my dear. you are the only one. you are the lonely one. my dear. a puff of smoke fills my lungs. look up and search for the sun. feel like a terminal case. but today takes a day from my face. my dear. you are the only one. you are the lonely one. my dear
