I covered my looking glass
Better hurry, this feeling's fading fast
Now I grasp for empty glasses
As the blue light cracks the blinds, I said I'm fine
I'm doing fine
People like me just never learn
I'm searching for a sanctuary
I'd sell you anything for a moment of release
I know I'm in there somewhere, under lists and laundry
Sleepwalk through this life
But inside we're still alive
People like me just never learn
Make it louder, make it faster
Make it sound like the memories in my head
Don't give up now, it's not over
The years go fast but we'll go faster
Make it louder, make it faster
Make it sound like the memories in my head
I'm still right here, are you with me
Hold on tight to stop the sinking
I'm still breathing, it's not over
People like us live forever

Open The Box

I used to be courteous
I used to be civilised
Living out on the edges of life
Undeserving, undermined
Oh mother, what have we done
I used to fold like paper
I used to give a shit
I used to smile for strangers
Look at me I'm done with it
Oh mother, what are we
There's danger everywhere I look
My nerves exposed now I feel everything
My world will never be the same
I'm a beaten dog and I'm mean as shit, don't get in my way
You open up the box you take the blame
What I'd give to be murderous
One day of feeling numb
Cool and smooth and snakelike
I'd tighten 'til your breath is gone
Oh mother, who's sorry now
We're a lost cause baby
Too wild to reason with
Mad under the moon
Our eyes our ears our teeth are big
Oh sister, what are we
There's danger everywhere I look
My nerves exposed now I feel everything
My world will never be the same
I'm a beaten dog and I'm mean as shit, don't get in my way
You open up the box you take the ….
There's danger everywhere I look
My nerves exposed now I feel everything
My world will never be the same
I'm a beaten dog and I'm mean as shit, don't get in my way
You open up the box you take the blame

Bad Valentine

My heart Is a hammer
Brain sweat, taking over
It's a test, it's a riddle
Hard on the outside, poison in the middle
We're not giving up til
We see the end
Time ticks, concentrator
Stay sharp, remember everything
Hands tight, on the trigger
Every breath makes your eyes a little bigger
We're not giving up til
We see the end
Smooth like a shark
Out in the water always moving
And I'll see you in the shallows
Wait in the dark
Try to remember what the hell's your number
Cause it's been a long time been a long time been a long time
Since I was in my right mind
My bad valentine
Bad valentine
One shot
My heart, your blood
It's never enough
We're not giving up 'til
We see the end
Smooth like a shark
Out in the water always moving
And I'll see you in the shallows
Wait in the dark
Try to remember what the hell's your number
Cause it's been a long time been a long time been a long time
Since I was in my right mind
Oh you're unkind, scared of what I might find
Oh the mess you've left behind
My bad valentine

Spike Heels

I believe in you
Thousands wouldn't
When you've got those blue shoes on
The ones with the spike heels
You're kind of modern
I kind of like that
Reach into the dark
Now can you tell me
Is it cold, or is it hot
Is it real, or is it really nothing
Is it cold, or is it hot
Is it dead dear, or is its heart still beating?
How did we get this far?
They said that we'd die young
But fast life made us strong
We're running in spike heels
Well I don't know a lot
But I know how to love
Throw up my beating heart
So you can tell me
Is it cold, or is it hot
Is it real, or is it really nothing
Is it cold, or is it hot
Is it dead dear, or is its heart still beating?
I'd rather be a banshee
Then another boring boy
With an electric guitar
Wanna borrow these spike heels?
But I believe in you
In the street at midnight
Screaming at the rain
Can someone tell me
Is it cold, or is it hot
Is it real, or is it really nothing
Is it cold, or is it hot
Is it dead dear, or is its heart still beating?
Crying at the rain
Crying at the rain
Crying at the rain
Crying at the rain
