Your disillusions come forth From your previous sins This is an omen of compassion Here's where it begins -It's during the crash I start to see- You can't see me, can you? -Your misgivings- On your burning shoulder -I believe it's me who can make things- You're still living, and I'm still bleeding. -Degenerate!- I'll change that. What will, you do, What'll you do when I'm dancing on your death bed? What will, you do! What'll you do when I'm dancing on your death bed? What will (what will) you do (you do)? What will you do when I'm dancing on her death bed? What will (what will) you do (you do)? What will you do when I'm dancing on her death bed? What will, you do? (What ya gunna do?) What will, you do? (What ya gunna do?) You killed me that night. Even though you told me that I would be someone, In your eyes. Since then my mind has been clear like a page, Monotonous blots. Hoping to live like I did until that day, I'm like porcelain. Porcelain! Beating in perfect harmony, falling flailing, You need this more than me. But you said that you can’t take this, I have to take my life. This isn’t suicide This is a sacrifice This isn’t suicide This is a sacrifice This isn’t suicide This is a sacrifice This is a sacrifice You killed me that night, that night, Even though you told me that I would be someone.

Misery 04:27
Hard to breath and I’m the one who should be laughing at you, It’s been me who’s shy and I will learn to speak out alive. Be cursed the stars they feel so sick will leave you broken down and stricken. Believe me when I say I hope you drink yourself into an early grave, caught out alone. With all your regret, playing a sad game of Russian roulette yeah, by yourself. Believe me when I say I hope you drink yourself into an early grave, caught out alone. I’ll spill my blood into your eye, So it means something when you cry, Once bitten, twice as shy, Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die. I’ll spill my blood into your eye, So it means something to me when you cry, Once bitten, twice as shy, Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die. Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die. Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die. It’s my life, It’s my time, It’s my life, It’s my time. The hardest part, is saying you’re sorry, because it makes no difference. The times are tuned to end, and you shine through with indifference. I’ll size you up through the bottom of a glass. I’ll size you up through the bottom of a glass. I’ll size you up through the bottom of a glass. I’ll size you up through the bottom of a glass.

Pandorum 05:32
We sleep deeper that what was dared before, Three with a burden to bear, No more law, nothing there. We are the last of the human race left in the darkness of space. We’re all taken by Pandorum. Your goodbyes; worse that suffocating and I saw hell. One left, all alone with his doom he decides to stay and play in his room. Your goodbyes; worse that suffocating and I saw hell. Put your hands on the walls, we descend to fire. You’ve send for liars. Liars! (You’ve sent for liars.) He would grow to manhood a self-proclaimed king master of his own vessel. We’re the last of the human race; we’re taken by Pandorum.

Eyes 01:48
As the knife, As the knife orbits my own eye I'm screaming at the top of my voice, whilst I lay, What can I say, This is what I get - defeat - from ever fucking with you! With you! Pain actualises, but every muscle in my body can't move. He persists to lacerate and there's nothing I can do to him too. "So ask me, how do I feel!" "How does it feel to be like you!" But what's the point, What's the point in even trying if he can't hear me now and doesn't want to what will happen to me?! What'll happen to me?! Oh my god My eyes Oh my god Eyes

Amidst the clouds of light and lust,
 He never had enough.  Ohh, all the times you refused,
 He soon had his way.

 This great puppeteer can be the reason why he did this or she did that. 
 We are all blessed with its infectious grace, yes in this case possessed. (Until this took place)

 Tied up, tied down, it was very simple to carry out.  
Who needs buttons? He did them down, just a way to keep you bound.  
Keep you bound. 
 Keep you bound.
 Keep you bound.

 Ohh, he told her not to,
 And he said he'd be hers always. 

 She'd not fathom what she soon understood, 
 That she felt for him in a way one should. 

 Ohh, he told her not to Na na na na.
 And he said he'd be hers always. 
 She would never, ever take that away. 
 
 She would never, ever take that away.  She would never, ever take that away. 

 It was safe, he was safe, and in his own way she always stood for her, for them, for their future. 

 He always grew for her. 
 He always grew for her. 
 Tied up, tied down, it was love which was simple to carry out Among a destitute land of lustful times, it finally exists, she had no doubt (He always grew for her) 
 Until then there was only, on one side, a fire that was lit But at the end of the day, she loved how he had done it (He always grew for her) Tied up and tied down, they held hands as their love was wound.
