What can I say to you. Turn me on, turn me off which will you choose? Laying awake in your room. Do you feel the same way that I do? Do you ever want to run? Do you ever want to run? Far, far, far, far away. Like me? What can I say to you? You're strange to me and I'm strange to you. The old ways don't work anymore. I'm lost in the dark. I can't find the door. Do you ever want to run? Do you ever want to run? Far, far, far, far away. Like me?

Killer 04:46
You can take what you want from me. Yes, I think that it's clear. Everything that you gave to me. Was made to take away everything that I found dear. You can take what you want from me. Yes, I think that it's clear. Everything that you got from me. You ate it, you fucked it, you sold it to those I found dear. You're a killer. Oh... oh.. You're a killer.

Big R than U 03:43
Did you hear? Are you afraid? This time, would you like to stay in these arms? My dear. Life can be wicked, or tender as a tear. Look into to the sky. You may find something new. If you let go. You may find something bigger than you. Diid they come wash your feet? Is your mind filled with disease? Shut your eyes, close your mouth. In the dark you can figure it out. Look into to the sky. You may find something new. If you let go. You may find something bigger than you.

I'm giving away everything. Everything makes me feel blue. I don't need anything. Everything reminds me of you. I wanted to do more. Then sit round and stare at the floor. So I packed up my things and I left out the front door. I'm making a new day. A new day, a new day for me. I'm faking that I'm ok. I'm afraid. Afraid I'm to weak. To walk down the line, and try and leave behind. All the people and places I've loved in my life. What can I say? Write a letter that says I'm ok. I'm spinning inside. These visions are wearing me down. All I need is a friend. A friend with a thorny crown. To stop by and ohh, to stop by and ohh, to stop by and show me around.
5.
When you were young down at the depot. Falling in love watching the people. Deep in your stomach warm like an oven. Mixed up like the tape. You got from your cousin. Why would you bother? To learn from what you discovered. There. Wandering out, down to the big lake. Lost in your thoughts. Wonder if it's late. Wish you were high. Wade in the fountain. Loosing your mind in the heart of the mountain. Why would you bother? To learn from what you discovered. There.
6.
I'm back In my mind. It's where I go from time to time. Whey I'm feeling blue with nothing nothing to do. Maybe to get away from you. These pictures I arrange keep me company. At least that's what I say. I don't think it's fair. Why should I care? If life goes on, goes on while I'm not there. When I look around. All Ii see is me for miles around. There's no place to hide. When there's nothing inside. The longer I stay the more that I find. I don't want to be alone. don't want to be alone. don't want to be alone. No.
7.
I believe what I see. Looking glass looking at me. I don't want to be like the fool I see. Will he be fine? If I pay him no mind. Little heart tattooed and black. Looking glass show me what's bad. I don't want to know. Which way the wind blows. With my head in the sand. I'm a super man. Crazy Eyes wondering around. Looking glass show me what's going down. I'd like it to be that we're all unique. But, the word on the street. Is that our lives are cheep.

Love Broken 04:53
I'm taking time to be around more. I'm taking down all the walls that kept me warm. Love broken, love together. At home or in the car. If you change with the weather. I won't know, I won't know who you are. You're taking time to ask me out more. You're coming in from the rain and from the war. Love broken, love together. On a couch in the milky way. For now or forever. Participate or don't come what may. Love broken, love together. At home or in the car. For now or forever.
9.
Where are you living? What's become of you? Have you been been treated? Forgiven? Have you done all you had to do? Did you clean yourself up? Find god get a job? Work out which parts of you you'd lost? Were you trying to be clever? When you shot yourself in the toe. On the morning of your birthday. Did it feel good to stop saying no? You were sweet when you lied. Said you were fine. Sold everything for one last time. Do you think about how you let yourself down? You let us all down. Do you? I don't care anymore. I just hope you're doing well. Wherever you are now.
10.
Now that you're alone. You have all the time to think about what you've done. To look at the light or run. Why would you throw it all away? Why? To take something that wasn't yours made you feel alive. Why throw it all away? Now that you've gone. You're living your life. Do you every cry? Do you wonder why? Why would you throw it all away? Why? To take something that wasn't yours made you feel alive. Why throw it all away? Love can't survive when you look behind. For the answers you can't find. Behind you. Behind you. Behind you there's nothing at all. Now that you've gone. You're living your lie.
