BAD ENDING

(Verse 1)
What’s the point of falling under
When you’re only half undone?
I’m starting a riot and wishing you gone
What’s the point of starting over
From all of the lies I loved you for?
I’m lighting a fire, meet me at your door
(Prechorus)
So meet me here inside your home
The place I swore I’d never go
But promises don’t mean a thing
(Chorus)
What are you doing, and what have you done?
You think you could still fool anyone?
I’ll give you one thing before you go
What were you thinking, before you gave in?
You were never half the man he is
I’ll give you one kiss before you’re alone
Will you ever let me let go?
(Verse 2)
Do you sometimes think that you can still play me?
We’ll, I’m not some little girl anymore
I’m growing tired of your butchered up words
Do you see the same scene I still see in mine?
When you close your hollow eyes?
You’ll forget all about me, but I never will you
(Prechorus)
So meet me here inside your home
The place I swore I’d never go
But promises don’t mean a thing
(Chorus)
What are you doing, and what have you done?
You think you could still fool anyone?
I’ll give you one thing before you go
What were you thinking, before you gave in?
You were never half the man he is
I’ll give you one kiss before you’re alone
Will you ever let me let go?
(Chorus)
What are you doing, and what have you done?
You think you could still fool anyone?
I’ll give you one thing before you go
What were you thinking, before you gave in?
You were never half the man he is
I’ll give you one kiss before you’re alone
Will you ever let me let go?
(Backing Vocals)
I don’t want your bad, bad ending, and I
Think we got the bad end and we go again
No, you got the bad ending
Earn yourself a bad ending

(Verse 1)
Give me blood, give me blood
Give me all your bloody love
Get your eyes off me
Don’t pretend that they’re not
Get a rush, get a rush
Taste you all over my tongue
God, I swear you’re all the same
And I’ve had enough
(Prechorus)
Get a ride, you’re so close
Getting off, you’ll let go
Take a hike, run solo
And just leave me alone
(Chorus)
I know you want a hold of me
So I’ll let go
And drown you inside your fantasies
And I’m so close
You’re begging me
And I’m thinking maybe
But everyone around me
Is screaming no, no, no, no
(Verse 2)
Feed me lies, feed me lies
Stare into my angel eyes
Tell me that you want me
Like it’s anything new
Feed the hive, feed the hive
God, it makes me feel alive
There’s no way around it
So I’m tearing one through
(Prechorus)
Get a ride, you’re so close
Getting off, you’ll let go
Take a hike, run solo
And leave me goddamn alone
(Chorus)
I know you want a hold of me
So I’ll let go
And drown you inside your fantasies
And I’m so close
You’re begging me
And I’m thinking maybe
But everyone around me
Is screaming no, no, no, no

Medicine

(Verse 1)
I found a box beneath your toys
You haven’t touched in years
And I felt like it was something
That you shouldn’t hear
I haven’t seen your smile in days
In the corners of my mind
And I fear that I’m forgetting
All that made you mine
(Prechorus)
My darling, could you please hold on?
I don’t know what to do when you’re gone
(Chorus)
You’re all I left to die
Don’t you open your eyes
You’re all I lost in time
I’m sorry I never tried
But it hurts just to think of the world
That has taken your light
So lay down now, it’s not your fight
(Verse 2)
There was a light behind your eyes
And it worked like medicine
But I can’t seem to remember
Feeling innocent
So I burned what I had found
Too scared to look inside
And the evil in your heart
Can keep its place to hide
(Prechorus)
My darling, I’ve held on too long
I’m finding myself now that you’re gone
(Chorus)
You’re all I left to die
Don’t you open your eyes
You’re all I lost in time
I’m sorry I never tried
But it hurts just to think of the world
That has taken your light
So lay down now, it’s not your fight
(Bridge)
So take your broken heart
And your unspoken scars
And hold them
These things won’t ever change
But you’ll never be the same
I know that
(Soft Chorus)
You’re all I left to die
You’re all I lost in time
(Chorus)
You’re all I left to die
Don’t you open your eyes
You’re all I lost in time
I’m sorry I never tried
But it hurts just to think of the world
That has taken your light
So lay down now, it’s not your fight

(Verse 1)
Falling apart and breaking up
Feel like my heart is waking now
And I don’t know how to hurt
Voice of an angel, call me up
Who ever let me fall in love?
‘Cause I know it never works for me
(Interlude)
And still, I’ll try
Even though you got the devil inside
You’re the greatest man I’ve ever known
(Verse 2)
World dressed like Heaven, tastes like Hell
How did you fool me so damn well?
And you can’t solve this with your fists
I always thought you’d know the best
A Glory Be, an Eternal Rest
But you can’t let me live like this
(Prechorus)
But still, I’ll try
'Cause I know you’re not the devil, I’d die
Sooner than letting my angel go
(Chorus)
So if you need to leave me alone
Just promise me you’re coming home
And I promise I won’t wait up for you dear
And whenever you need, I’ll be here, my love
I promise I’d never give you up
Even if you give in to the fear
And I’ll fix you as you wipe up
Every tear
(Verse 3)
Things have changed since I found you out
Not even God can stop it now
But I still love you the same
Wait for the night you don’t come home
You can’t leave me here alone
As I inherit the pain
(Prechorus)
But still, I’ll try
To accept you’ve got the devil inside
‘Cause I know you’ll use him well
(Chorus)
So if you need to leave me alone
Just promise me you’re coming home
And I promise I won’t wait up for you dear
And whenever you need, I’ll be here, my love
I promise I’d never give you up
Even if you give in to the fear
(Bridge)
But maybe I washed it away
With all of the blood
It begged you to shed
And may his light be granted
And save who they can’t
Destroy alive or dead
(Last Chorus)
So if you need to leave me alive
Just promise you won’t give up the fight
Even if you give in to the fear
And I know you need to break my heart
You’re more than what you do in the dark
And you’re bleeding for more than for yourself
‘Cause whenever you bleed, I feel it, my love
He’s always right there up above
And there’s nothing awaiting you in Hell
So let the devil out and
I know they’ll treat him well

When We Were Young

(Verse 1)
In the darkness, when you wake up
Are you finding it harder to break out
Of the tireless days that they’ve kept you on?
I will find out you’re my weakness
Fall apart at the love and the sweetness
Of the endless gaze that I’ve feared all along
(Chorus)
In the moments that we run from
Finding all of the things that we dreamed of
When we were young and
The world seemed alright
When we were young
(Verse 2)
When you leave me, ‘cause you’ve grown up,
Will you take all the love that we made up
In the shadowless daze that we chased up above?
When it dies down, I’ll defeat this
Never letting myself fear the demons
That I swore to forget when we were young
(Last Chorus)
In the moments that we run from
Finding all of the things that we dreamed of
When we were young and
The world seemed alright
Now we’ve found out all the problems
Never mattered that we never solved them
When we were young
All our eyes shine so bright
Man, we were young

Fester

(Verse 1)
If you run away
Would you take me along the beaten road?
In the night, in the light of the moon
In the footsteps of his ghost
Hear it fall away
When you take on the sins of all he’s done
In your life, in the darkness, I wait
In the corners of your home
(Verse 2)
If you find a way
To abandon the hold we’ve kept on you
Do you win? Do you heal and pretend that
You’ve done all you can do?
Here, I fall away
When you show him the hand that never feeds
And you’ll bite, and you’ll know in your bones
That you’ll never leave me be
(Prechorus)
All he’s done
Always comes back up
(Chorus)
And I’ve been running away again
But you can’t take me on your endless road
And I keep falling apart in your head
But I will fester on the path you chose
(Verse 3)
Give it all away
When you tell him you’ll stay for one more night
And he’ll smile, and you’ll mourn ‘cause you
Know that we’ll never say goodbye
In the empty space
That’s surrounding the demons in your mind
Hear my voice, know you’ve lain yourself down
On the bed you call your life
(Prechorus)
All those years
Always me you fear
(Chorus)
And I’ve been running away again
But you can’t take me on your endless road
And I keep falling apart in your head
But I will fester on the path you chose
