Our Sweet Carnage
Swallow this glow,
Let’s forget the lights, tonight,
We’re gonna die in this town.
We’ll drink from the bottle,
Replace our blood
With Jack and coke
And laugh our heart out.
I’m still trying to survive,
I’m trying to hate
Your perfect frowns.
I’d better close my mouth,
I’d better turn around.
‘Cause every time you call my name
The colors fade
And every wall I’ve built so far
Is blown away.
Don’t open your eyes,
One kiss, so I can die.
Don’t leave my hand, now
And time won’t pass us by.
I’m wasting my night
On a bench with a beer
And a melody killing me.
I’m writing your name
On the walls of a bank
Then another Vicodin.
I’m still out of your dreams
And I hold on to everything
We’ve never been.
I’d better leave this town, my dear,
I’d better leave
As long as I can breathe
‘Cause every time you call my name
The colors fade
And every wall I’ve built so far
Is blown away.
Don’t open your eyes,
One kiss, so I can die.
Don’t leave my hand, now
And time won’t pass us by.
Three cheers for the carnage
Inside my gullible heart.
Steal my habits,
Walk in my days,
Whisper you’re mine.
‘Cause every time you call my name
The colors fade
And every wall I’ve built so far
Is blown away.
Don’t open your eyes,
One kiss, so I can die.
Don’t leave my hand, now
And time won’t pass us by.
