Take It Away

Life's greatest questions have always been...
Who am I? Where did I come from?
Why am I here? Where am I going?
You are about to see and hear
one of the most significant messages given to us by God.

(Cocking Gun)

I'm lying to myself
And this dagger's my excuse
I'm a pawn
I should have paid up
And I left an hour late
I was laid up

I must abuse myself
I'm against all that I've made up
Set in stone, the sun will come
And I hate light
You know I hate light
Don't make it look so pretty burning

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away
Take my hand
Take my life
Take take take take take take it away

I must have caught something
In the heat of all these dances
I'm a worm with no more chances
And I've lost all doubt
In a chemical romance

I can't stop itching
Over thoughts of tarnished hope
Kinda funny
Lonely Feeling
I'm not in love
You know it's not love
Don't make it look so pretty burning

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away
Take my hand
Take my life
Take take take take take take it away

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away
Take my hand
Take my life
Take take take take take take it away

Brothers and sisters
I'm right here with you
Cause everyone's got one
A story to kill me
I'm so apathetic in my resentment
Living, loving, knowing not...

Take my hand
Take my hand
Take my hand
Take my hand

Take my hand
Take my hand
Take my hand
Take my hand

Take my.. life

Take my heart
Take my mind
Take my lungs

Take my.. life !

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away
Take my hand
Take my life
Take take take take take take it away

Burn the sun
Burn the light
Take take take take take take it away
Take my hand
Take my life
Take my life
Take my life




I Caught Fire

Seemed to stop my breath
My head on your chest
Waiting to cave in
From the bottom of my...
Here your voice again
Can we dim the sun..
And wonder where we've been.

Maybe you and me so..
Kiss me like you did
My heart stopped bleeding
Such a softer sin.

I'm Melting.. I'm Melting

(Chorus)
In your eyes..
I lost my place
Could stay a while
And I'm melting
In your eyes..
Like my first time
That I caught fire
Just stay with me, lay with me now.

Never caught my breath
Every second I'm without you, I'm a mess
Ever known each other
Trust these words are stones
Why cuts aren't healing?
Learning how to love
I'm melting, I'm melting

(Chorus)
Stay with me, lay with me now.

You can stay and watch me fall
And of course I'll ask for...

(Background Scream) Help......

Just stay with me now
We can take our hands off, stay in bed
Just make love, that's all
Just stay with me now

I'm melting, I'm melting

(Chorus x2)
(Background on 2nd Chorus) Stay with me, lay with me

In your eyes
Let's sleep till the sun burns out
I'm melting in your eyes
I'm melting in your eyes
Let's sleep till the sun burns out
I'm melting in your eyes




Let It Bleed

This poison's my intoxication
I broke the needle off in my skin
Picked the scabs and picked the bleeding
And assumed that it was all in vein
A positive scab that's never healing
Calloused hit me in the face
A burning bridge that's so misleading
Poison's more potent now with the flame

Let it bleed
And take the red for what it's worth
Watch the fire
Fill your lungs with smoke for the last time
If you feel like dying, you might wanna sing

The fire department couldn't drown the city
They didn't even try to wash it clean
And what did you think, that I was sober?
Put me out 'cause I'm on fucking fire
A positive scab that's never healing
Regret that I kept this clean
The most that I can do for you is keep on lying
It's not a lie if you can let it sing

Let it bleed
And take the red for what it's worth
Watch the fire
Fill your lungs with smoke for the last time
If you feel like dying you might wanna sing

Oh, oh, oh, oh you might wanna sing
Ha, ha, ha you might wanna sing
Ha, ha, you might wanna sing
Ha, ha sing
You might wanna sing
You might wanna sing
You might wanna sing or scream it

This poison's my intoxication
I broke the needle off in my skin
Picked the scabs and picked the bleeding
Yeah, assumed that it was all in vein

Let it bleed
And take the red for what it's worth
Watch the fire
Mamma fill your lungs with smoke for the last time
If you feel like dying
If you feel like dying
If you feel like dying, you might wanna sing
Ha, ha, ha you might wanna sing
Ha, ha you might wanna sing
You might wanna sing or scream it




All That I've Got

So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me,
Off guard, red handed, now I'm far from lonely
Asleep I still see you lying next to me
So deep that it didn't even bleed, catch me. I I

I need something else
would someone please just give me?
Hit me and knock me out
And let me go back to sleep
I can laugh all I want inside
I still am empty
So deep that it didn't even bleed and catch me. I I

I'll be just fine pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got
I'll be just fine pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got
(All that I've got)

I guess I remember every glance you shot me
Unharmed, I'm losing weight and some body heat
I squoze so hard
I stopped your heart from beating
So deep that I didn't even scream "Fuck me". I I

I'll be just fine pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got
I'll be just fine pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got
(All that I've got)

And it's all that I've got
It's all that I've got
It's all that I've got
It's all that I've got
It's all that I've got.

So deep that it didn't even bleed; catch me
So deep that I didn't even scream "Fuck me".

I'll be just fine pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got
I'll be just fine pretending I'm not
I'm far from lonely
And it's all that I've got.




Cut Up Angels

If we cut out the bad, well then we'd have nothing left.
Like I cut up your mouth the night I stuffed it all in.
And you lied to the angels, said I stabbed you to death.
If we go at the same time, they'll clean up the mess

Chorus
I lost my head, you couldnt come
this lust to my brain almost feels like a gun.

Watch you bite into the bottle, watch me kick out the chair.
Letyou chew on the glass and laugh as you just hung there.
I had thought of rose petals,
most imperfectly pure.
Then I thought of your battles
and the abuse they'd beenthrough.

I lost my head, you couldnt come
this lust to my brain almost feels like a gun.
You lost your head, I couln't come
this lust to my brain almost feels like a, almost feels like a, almost feels like a gun whoa, whoa.

I told the angels, can't stay in heaven
I asked the devil, the devil, the devil.

If we cut out the bad, well then we'd have nothign left.
Like I cut up your angels, yeah you stabbed me to death.

I lost me head, you couldnt come
this lust to my brain almost feels like a gun.
You lost your head, I couldnt come.
this lust tomy brain almost feels just like a gun,yeah.

I lost my head, you couldnt come
this lust to my brain almost feels like a gun.
I lost my head, you couldnt come
this lust tomy brain almost feels like a, almost feel like a, almost feels like a gun, feels like a gun, feels like a gun, feels like a gun, feels like a...




Listening

Your skin attached this fragile cliche
Of my broken heart attack
You should swallow your teeth and hang out
Stay for a while
If your heart's still beating it must be the blood
If your lungs are still working it must be the mud
If its still light out than a kick in the ribs
today's worth living

I don't see anything now
So just say what you wanna say
It's kind of funny how you're not listening anyway
Lights out, I can't stand to hear you scream
While we were making love I was fast asleep
and the night sky better give something up (give something up)

I don't see anything now
So just say what you wanna say
It's kind of funny how I'm not listening anyway
[x2]

Lights out, lights out...
Lights out, I can't stand to hear you scream
While we were making love I was fast asleep
If your heart's still beating it must be the blood
If your lungs are still working it must be the mud
If its still light out than a kick in the ribs
If todays worth living it probably is

I don't see anything now
So just say what you wanna say
It's kind of funny how I'm not listening anyway
[x2]

I'm not listening anyway
I'm not listening anyway
I'm not listening

Listening, I'm not listening
I'm not listening
I'm not listening
I'm not listening

Yesterday Feelings

Close my eyes and move to the back of my mind
The worries are washed out to sea
See the changes, people´s faces blurred out
Like sunspots or raindrops

(Chorus)
Now all those feelings,
Those yesterdays feelings will all be lost in time
But today I’ve wasted away for today is on my mind

Left the only worries I had in my hands
Away from the light in my eyes
Holding tight and try not to hide how i feel

Cuz Feelings mean nothing

(Chorus)

Yea today is on my mind.

I can´t get a worry
Im feeling so lonely
Breaking apart all this love in my heart
Close my eyes and move to the back of my mind

Where feelings mean nothing

(Chorus x3)

I can´t get a worry
I’m feeling so lonely
Breaking apart all this love in my heart




Light With A Sharpened Edge

Free from the torment of sin
All this I'm giving up much as
The sun would decide to give in
Explode into orange and
Hear all the voices sing praises with hymns
Mark the birth of a change
Free from the torment of sin
All this I'm giving up

It's not me
Bury wreckage my soul
It's not me
So who am I now?

Over and over again
Light with a sharpened edge
Cuts through the black empty space we call sky
Beginning the cycle that stays
And I know in my heart we all die

Like the day and the night
Like the sun in the sky
All this I'm giving up

It's not me
Bury wreckage my soul
It's not me
So who am I now?

It's not me
Bury wreckage my soul
It's not me
So who am I now?

Is there another side
Beyond the black and white?
A place I could meet you by
A place on the other side
I'll let you know when I go
I'll let you know when I go
When I'm gone

It's not me
Buried wreckage my soul
It's not me
So who am I now? (x3)




Sound Effects And Overdramatic

When the shirt came off, it was all in time
When a m-m-m-minute turned into a mile
And I broke that grin, and I cut it out
And you got all turned on by the taste of the ocean
When I mention blue, all you thought was color
When you mention drugs, all I thought was sober
When your pants came off and I turned you over
When you mention blue

Kill
Smile
Cut it out for me this time
Smile, haven't seen him smile in a while

Keep the mask aligned
Cut it up in time
There's a space between valleys
And try and catch a vibe
Make a circle square
A rectangle curve
Use a smile as a noun and I think like a verb

Run quick switch sides
Spill the filled up canister
And the room is shaking
Now you're changing places
And I switched my pace
And my breathing races when you mention blue

Kill
Smile
Cut it out for me this time
Smile, haven't seen him smile in a while

(This is not) Kill
(This is not) Smile
(This is not, this is not) Cut it out for me this time
(This is not, this is not, this is not) Smile, haven't seen him smile in a while

Kill
Smile
Cut it out for me
Cut it, cut it out
Smile
Kill
Cut it out for me
Cut it, cut it out

We cut it out

Kill
Smile
Cut it out for me this time
Smile, haven't seen him smile in a while

Kill
Smile
Cut it out for me this time
Smile, haven't seen him smile in a while

Get down and stay awake
Smile




It's Hard To Say

the singer finished singing and she's walking out
the singer sheds a tear fear of falling out
and it's hard to say how i feel today
for years gone by, and i cried

it's hard to say that i was wrong
it's hard to say i miss you
since you've been gone it's not the same

my worries weigh the world how i used to be
and everything(i'm cold) seems a plague in me
and its hard to say how i feel today
for years gone by, and i cried

it's hard to say that i was wrong
its hard to say I miss you
since you've been gone it's not the same
it's hard to say i held my tongue
it's hard to say if only
since you've been gone it's not the same

worse than a fear it's the lie you told a thousand times before
worse than a fear it's the knife
but it's hard to say how i feel today
for years gone by, and i cry

it's hard to say that i was wrong
it's hard to say I miss you
since you've been gone it's not the same
it's hard to say i held my tongue
it's hard to say if only
since you've been gone i'm not the same
it's hard to say
( i tell you it's hard to say)
it's hard to say
( i tell you it's hard to say)
since you've been gone i'm not the same




Lunacy Fringe

Wake up
My love
Never thought you'd make me, break me
Now I'm up, from below
Such a brilliant star you are
And will your love keep burning baby
Burn harder through my eyes;
You saw the short times feel like no time
I thought you'd oughta know

(Chorus)
I'm so far gone now
I've been running on empty
I'm so far gone now
Do you wanna take me on?

Do you wanna take me on?

Do
Do you
Do you know?
Do you know how long I've waited
To look up from below?
Just to find someone like you,
And will your love light burn me baby,
Burn a hole right through my heart
I think I might just trust you maybe
But I'm not sure
Im not sure I wanna know

(Chorus x 2)
Do you wanna take me on?

I think you could make me girl,
Could make me take my life
I know you could break me girl,
Take all of me
All of me, yeah, hey!

Wake up
My love
Never thought you'd make me, break me
Now I'm up from below
Such a brilliant star you are

(Chorus x2)




I'm A Fake

Spoken:]
Small, simple, safe price
Rise the wake and carry me with all of my regrets
This is not a small cut that scabs, and dries, and flakes, and heals
And I am not afraid to die
I'm not afraid to bleed, and fuck, and fight.
I want the pain of payment
What's left, but a section of pigmy size cuts
Much like a slew of a thousand unwanted fucks
Would you be my little cut?
Would you be my thousand fucks?
And make mark leaving space for the guilt to be liquid
To fill, and spill over, and under my thoughts
My sad, sorry, selfish cry out to the cutter
I'm cutting trying to picture your black broken heart
Love is not like anything
Especially a fucking knife

Look at me, you can tell
By the way I move and do my hair
Do you think that it's me or it's not me?
I don't even care
I'm alive
I don't smell
I'm the cleanest I have ever been.
I feel big, I feel tall, I feel dry (dry)

Just look at me, look at me now
I'm a fake [x4]
Just look at me, look at me now
I'm a fake [x4]

Do I drink? Do I date?
I've got perfect placement all my ink
Satisfied, in your eyes
I'm the biggest fan I've got right now
I made sure, that I look how I wanted to look
The people around me, the people surround me
I feel big, I feel tall, I feel dry (dry)

Just look at me, look at me now
I'm a fake [x4]
Just look at me, look at me now
I'm a fake [x4]
Just look at me now.
I'm a fake [x2]
Just look at me now.
I'm a fake [x2]

My stomach hurts now, and all tied off in lace
I pray, I beg for anything, to hit me in the face
and this sickness isn't me, I pray to fall from grace
The last thing I see is feeling
And I'm telling you I'm a fake [x4]
And I'm telling you I'm...

Just look at me, look at me now
I'm a fake [x4]
Just look at me, look at me now
I'm a fake [x4]
Just look at me now.
I'm a fake [x2]
Just look at me now.
I'm a fake [x2]
Fake!
Fake!
Fake!
Genuine fake!
