Sympathy

I’ll watch for a while
‘Till a finger bleeds
'Till I get a look
Give me the sympathy I need
I’ll crawl for a while
Under hairpins
Under your skin
Give me the sympathy I need

Go To Hell

You broke my nature, you do so much harm
In loving you I set myself on fire to keep warm
You make a fist when you kiss and you move me with it
How does it feel to hold something so frozen?
Because at this point, I don’t mind
And at this point
It’s your crime and my damnation
I would say ‘go to hell’ but I don’t really want to see you again
It’s your crime and my damnation
I would say ‘go to hell’ but I don’t really want to see you again
I felt you slipping under my skin
I tried to hold on but you cut your way in
Why were you so intent on dragging me down?
To a place where I’m blind and I’m broken and I can’t make a sound
Because at this point, I don’t mind
And at this point
It’s your crime and my damnation
I would say ‘go to hell’ but I don’t really want to see you again
It’s your crime and my damnation
I would say ‘go to hell’ but I don’t really want to see you again

New Lives

We always thought we knew the answers
Delivered down by helping hands
The words we heard were never clearer
There's much we'd understand
There's much we'd understand
The rope we tied around our old lives
Was cut in half by sharpened wit
To all we've known we've said our goodbyes
So our new lives would begin
So our new lives would begin
Stop, no need to list your reasons
Stop, no need to speak your peace
All that you claim is all but ricocheted
Off of every wall we’ve made
Yet here I am, you’ve made me stay but for how long?
You say its time to reconsider
To turn me round from what I knew
But is that path for the better?
Is this worth living through?
Is this worth living through?

Life on TV

I’ve been waiting in a window for a good girl to take me home
I’ve been waiting on a pedestal
While they tell me just how good it’ll be
I’ll be perfect for my love
And she’ll be perfect for me
Take my eyes, take my mind
Wear my skin and be mine
Fake my lies, Take some time
Now you win now you die
Take my eyes, take my mind
Wear my skin and be mine
Fake my lies, Take some time
Now you win now you die
Fairytales and daydreaming
Of a life just like you see on TV (on TV)
Glazed over, skin colder
I guess this is what it means to me just to be.
Take my eyes, take my mind
Wear my skin and be mine
Fake my lies, Take some time
Now you win now you die
Take my eyes, take my mind
Wear my skin and be mine
Fake my lies, Take some time
Now you win now you die
