Trying to create something that's not there.
A spark I saw as a bomb is just a means to an end.
and I was just so happy to be out of my shell again,
I don't think that I really cared for who or what.
so for now I'll just have to keep it shut.
If you're not ready, you're not ready.
Please stop acting like you are.
How could I know
that everything you say ARE LIES about devotion and desire?
And I know the spark inside your eyes
was just the match I used to set myself on fire.
My mouth's shooting blanks.
This situation's unbearable,
I've gotten vulnerable.
Now anyone is free to waltz right in.
My temple's been invaded
and there's nobody guarding it.
All over this lonely life,
but what's so wrong with being all alone?
Alone's the only way I've ever known.
If you're not ready, you're not ready.
Please stop acting like you are.
How could I know
that everything you say ARE LIES about devotion and desire?
And I know the spark inside your eyes
was just the match I used to set myself on fire.
I'm pleading cause this kills and it's still bleeding.
My darling I'm taking my life back to start healing.
How could I know
that everything you say ARE LIES about devotion and desire?
And I know the spark inside your eyes
was just the match I used to set myself on fire.
Set myself on fire.
I hear the clock, it's six a.m. I feel so far from where I've been I got my eggs and my pancakes too I got my maple syrup, everything but you.
I break the yolks, make a smiley face I kinda like it in my brand new place
I wipe the spots off the mirror
Don't leave the keys in the door
Never put wet towels on the floor anymore' cause Dreams last for so long
even after you're gone
I know you love me And soon you will see
You were meant for me
And I was meant for you.
I called my momma, she was out for a walk
Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn't wanna talk So I picked up a paper, it was more bad news
More hearts being broken or people being used
Put on my coat in the pouring rain
I saw a movie it just wasn't the same
'Cause it was happy and I was sad It made me miss you oh so bad 'cause
Dreams last for so long
Even after you're gone
I know you love me And soon you will see
You were meant for me
And I was meant for you. I go about my business,I'm doin fine Besides what would I say if I had you on the line Same old story, not much to say
Hearts are broken, everyday. I brush my teeth and put the cap back on
I know you hate it when I leave the light on I pick a book up. Turn the sheets down.
Take a deep breath and a good look around
Put on my pjs and hop into bed I'm half alive but I feel mostly dead
I try and tell myself it'll be all right
I just shouldn't think anymore tonight 'cause Dreams last for so long
Even after you're gone
I know you love me
And soon I know you will see You were meant for me
And I was meant for you
Yeah.... You were meant for me and I was meant for you.

I'm becoming less defined as days go by
Fading away
And well you might say
I'm losing focus
Kinda drifting into the abstract in terms of how I see myself
Sometimes I think I can see right through myself [x2]
Sometimes I can see right through myself
Less concerned about fitting into the world
Your world that is
Cause it doesn't really matter anymore
(no it doesn't really matter anymore)
No it doesn't really matter anymore
None of this really matters anymore
Yes I am alone but then again I always was
As far back as I can tell
I think maybe it's because
Because you were never really real to begin with
I just made you up to hurt myself
[x2]
I just made you up to hurt myself, yeah
And I just made you up to hurt myself
And it worked.
Yes it did!
[Chorus:]
There is no you
There is only me
There is no you
There is only me
There is no ****ing you
There is only me
There is no ****ing you
There is only me
Only [x4]
Well the tiniest little dot caught my eye and it turned out to be a scab
And I had this funny feeling like I just knew it's something bad
I just couldn't leave it alone, I kept picking at the scab
It was a doorway trying to seal itself shut
But I climbed through
Now I am somewhere I am not supposed to be, and I can see things I know I really shouldn't see
And now I know why, now, now, now I know why
Things aren't as pretty
On the inside

Cant you see Im easily bothered by persistence
One step from lashing out at you...
You want in to get under my skin
And call yourself a friend
Ive got more friends like you
What do I do?
(pre) is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where Ive been
Belong
You cant be something youre not
Be yourself, by yourself
Stay away from me
A lesson learned in life
Known from the dawn of time
(chorus) respect, walk
Run your mouth when Im not around
Its easy to achieve
You cry to weak friends that sympathize
Can you hear the violins playing you song?
Those same friends tell me your every word
Remember when I dove into the crowd
And I got a bloody knee under my skin, a mark from wiping out
It brings back the memories Every bone's been broken
But my heart is still wide open
I can’t stop
Don’t care if I lose
Baby you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self inflicted
I’m going down *in flames* for you
Baby you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self inflicted
One more thing I’m addicted to
With each scar there’s a map that tells a story
What a souvenir of Young love's like jumping out
An airplane riding a tidal wave on an ocean of emotion My heart rips me wide open
I can’t stop
Don’t care if I lose
Baby you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self inflicted
I’m going down *in flames* for you
Baby you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self inflicted
One more thing I’m addicted to
And I cover up these scars
(We’ll make it we’ll make it but we break it)
And I can’t stop seeing stars
(lets hope not die) Whenever you’re around
Around
I can’t stop
Don’t care if I lose
Baby you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self inflicted
I’m going down in flames for you
oohhh you are the weapon I choose
These wounds are self inflicted
One more thing I’m addicted to
I can’t stop no I can’t stop
no I can't stop Ohh I’m going out in flames
Ohh I’m going down in flames
Ohhhh
Baby you are the weapon I choose
Baby you are the weapon I choose...
"From seeing the worst to loving the strongest; People grow over time."
Am I loud and clear, or am I breaking up?
Am I still your charm, or am I just bad luck?
Are we getting closer, or are we just getting more lost?
I've been here so long, I think that it's time to move
The winter's so cold, summer's over too soon
So let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow
I've got some friends, some that I hardly know
But we've had some times, I wouldn't trade for the world
We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go
Is this how you repay me
Self righteous fires burn
Standing consumed now
How an earth are we to learn
We perish in the flames
We are mortal in the end
We are mortal.
