Are you ready for this, suckerpunch in a kiss, thrown low? I'm the shame in a fist, slippin' out when I miss, head low. Do you wanna, let me see you again? Blood-water, split lip again. Give me a reason to not let go Only the wingless should live this low Give me a reason and I won't go Kill the fearless, the weak won't grow Are you so hooked on this, melody with a twist, you don't know? All the strings I'm pullin', got you dumb and dancin' in my room. Do you wanna? Let me treat you like this? Star, Martyr, sealed with a kiss! Give me a reason to not let go Only the wingless should live this low Give me a reason and I won't go Kill the fearless, the weak won't grow

Hello, I can see you. I can feel you. I can smell you there. I know what you're thinking, what you're drinking and you almost care. All the pretty people, lined up, throwing up their pointing and pinky fingers in the air. All the sing-along scenesters with suicidal hair. All the pretty people, villains, saints and queers! All the colored babies, rainbow-honey-bears!!! All the Lovely People, come on in! Oh no, I can see you have an issue and it's hard to bear. Like you, I can undo any good view, that's why I'm here. All the pretty people, lined up, throwing up there pointing and pinky fingers in the air. All the sing-along scenesters with suicidal hair. All the pretty people, villians, saints and queers! All the colored babies, rainbow-honey-bears!!! Hello, I can see you! I can feel you! I can smell you there! I know what you're thinking, what you're drinking and you almost care! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Start the show!!!!!! All the Lovely People, come on in!

I don't wanna drown in it I don't like the smell of it Did it for the hell of it Hope I'm not an idiot I don't like the sound of it Kinda like the taste of it I'll just hang around a bit Hope I'm not an idiot Cut myself on the prettiest little shard I'm the reason the Lord came down so hard Bleed the muddiest blood a heart ever had to pump Confused by this side of it hope I'm not an idiot

Peeking out of Daisy's box Grizzly Bear is feasting on Goldilocks My gun is loaded, I could shoot But, I'd rather wait and see what you will do Hallelujah! Right is wrong! I can do what I want, 'cause it's my song My song for the girls I love so much My song for the girls, that fuck me up My song for the girls who won't go away My song for the girls who get in the way My song for the girls who won't let me play My song for the girls who make me this way this way this way this way this way You shouldn't mess with us, it's too dangerous and I'm not well. You sing along, but you don't belong within inches of this violet room. Yeah! Will I am! Heart and Hands! What I do, I do, for you. To the crickets and the ghosts To the crickets and the ghosts To the crickets and the ghosts To the crickets and the ghosts

Closer 06:03
Hold on, it's a bumpy ride. Halos, all around. (The lucky ones) You sleep, I'm the watchman. I won't let you down. Come down, get closer. Allow me to get closer. I'm coming closer. I'm feeling... Pretty, painted angel, uneasy to fly. I'll be here to watch you, should you ever try. Come down, get closer. Allow me to get closer. I'm coming closer. I'm feeling... All this time, feel it getting closer, all this time, chasing me! All this time, bring it in closer, I just want to feel it! All this time, it breathes and gets closer, I think I can feel it getting ready and it takes it's time, moves a little closer- I think I... I won't let you down. Take this ride, believe me I've got a fist full of reasons to keep me alive and I can walk this town, fearless and alive- You can bury me anywhere fool!!! I won't let you down!

FASHION KILLS On the corner, standin', starin' the ghost down Pledge allegiance to the God on his shirt It's a pity all this pretty's so wasted Being this beautiful hurts Come on, check, a city to feast on-I Only let the girl to do it in peace I-I, I'm electrical and doing it freestyle A barely beautiful fashion-Ghost! Fashion! Fashion! Fashion! Kills. All the kitties gonna sell it at seaside All romantical and doin' a Visa All the head, I got it doing a freakshow It's simply to be fashion(able) Song, song. Song, song. Song, song.

Sleepwalker 05:58
You don't sing along 'cause you don't know the words Come on, drink up, the poison in your cup is not enough to trump the hand you got so just give up now You don't sing along 'cause you don't have the nerve Come on, drink up, the poison is not enough to avoid it Some day when you're big enough I'll let you rule the world Some day when you're big enough I'll let you rule the world That's just what I'll do That's just what I'll do That's just what I'll do That's just what I'll do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do I've been sleepwalking way too long! I've been sleepwalking way too long! I've been sleepwalking way too long! I've been sleepwalking way too long! And this sadness I've loved has done me wrong I see the way home! I see the way home! I see the way home! Run to what you Love! Run! Run! Run! Run! Run! Run! Run! Run!

I was born in the desert I been down for years Jesus, come closer I think my time is near And I've traveled over Dry earth and floods Hell and high water To bring you my love Climbed over mountains Travelled the sea Cast down off heaven Cast down on my knees I've laid with the devil Cursed god above Forsaken heaven To bring you my love To bring you my love To bring you my love To bring you my love I know he's gonna be here He know he's gonna be here Yeah alright Forsaken heaven Cursed god above Lay with the devil Bring you my love To bring you my love To bring you my love To bring you my love
