2. 10 Signs You Should Leave
You know its all a game that we play back and forth.
I leave, you chase, and were back to square one.
We were not meant to be, and I tried my best to work it through.
I asked my friends, What should I do?
There only advice was leaving you.
But Im glad I did or at least thats what I tell myself
I swear to God I never wouldve known your face or your name.
If every day is a constant reminder, youre a whore, liar, ghost, harlot.
And its sad to say that I, I still cry to the Bayside CD everyday
Dont you know that those songs are about you?
Check tracks 8 and 9 then call me back
You ask me, When is it over?
You ask me, When is it over?
Over?
This isnt over til I say its over
This isnt over til I say its over
This isnt over til I say itâs over
This isnt over til I say
Back to square one. Come on!
3. When Keeping It Real Goes Wrong
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
I hope this is a passing phase.
There is no future when I stand here with you.
This is the end. No longer will you hear my voice.
So long. Goodbye.
And dont you think for a second you'll see my face again.
I killed the hope, but you buried it.
This is a promise. I will not let you back in my life.
This is a promise I keep to myself.
Only time will tell how long you'll keep your legs closed.
I give that bitch another week, before sheâs on her knees again with one of my friends.
And I tried my best to forgive and forget you.
I tried my best to forgive and forget you.
Wont you be my bride? (another day [x4]) [x8]
4. Rusted Over Wet Dreams
No words could ever describe the feeling.
The feeling of holding onto your ghost.
But if theres just one more thing I could as of you. Just one more request.
Please dont ever forget me. No, dont you ever forget.
Everyday its getting harder just to turn the page.
I keep replaying and reciting those mistakes you made.
And Im trying to take my own advice.
That things will change. That things will change.
But whom am I kidding? Im so afraid.
That things will change. That things will change.
I want you to know how it feels to be in love with the ghost that bears your name.
Know that my love was not in vain.
[Chorus]
But if theres one regret we can share, what shall we name him?
What shall we name our dead son? [x4]
5. You Got A Henna Tattoo That Said Forever
Take me somewhere familiar so I can find myself again.
It hurts more then you know and Iâll ask you âWhy?â
Why would you lie to me? What was the point?
Was your intention to waste my time?
Thought I was digging deep. Thought I was breaking the bank.
But girls like you are just a dime a dozen.
Are just a dime a dozen.
Movie quote still connecting us like constellations.
I wonder if I can ever separate myself from this.
And itâll be a while âtil I can breathe again.
Slip me into something warm.
My eyes still scream childhood.
Childhood! [x2]
Slip me into something warm.
6. Travis Bickle
7. Sleeping Princess In Devil's Castle
And I hope every morning you wake up, it hurts more and doesnt stop.
And I hope every night you rest you lay and pray for death.
You made a better trophy in my dreams.
And now you are my nightmare.
I wonder, Where did I go wrong?
And you are all thats left of what it meant to live.
Dont worry. This will only hurt for a second. Sleep soundly.
Just where did I go wrong?
Just where did I go wrong?
And hoping for changes, weve wasted this, and what for?
And what for? One more day of this weight.
One more day of this dissolved presence.
8. The Way to Keep the Show Fresh Is... I'm Dead
I just wanna rub it in your fucking face and make you remember everything.
No, you were never a friend to me. Just a part in all my movies.
Stabbing you dead in every scene.
And Iâm not gonna stop until you realize how you made me feel.
And I swear itâs all your fault. At least thatâs what I remember.
And I see right through you.
Jealousy pouring out your eyes.
So I ask for the great applause for this poor Capricorn.
I hope you enjoy living in my shadow.
When you signed the dotted line, did you think things would change?
I just wanna rub it in your fucking face and make you remember everything.
I, I canât help but laugh. And now we know that things will never change.
Itâs all about business
Itâs all about business now [x2]
9. It's Not Just A Party, It's A Funeral
They will find my corpse on the shower floor.
And with my bleeding wrists will be a note that explains all of this.
âDear friends and family, I hope that you can understand.â
I could not handle the fear and regret, knowing I ruined my only chance.
A lesson in carelessness. Let my grave stand as proof.
Youâve only got one chance, so take advantage.
I will burn in hell for my selfishness. [x2]
I will burn in hell.
But youâll see me reach for angel wings.
Youâve only got one chance, so take advantage.
I know the backlash. Call me a coward all you want.
I know the truth is that I am free.
I am free! [x5]
10. When Everything Goes Wrong, Take the Easy Way Out
When all is said and done, please just let me out.
I will kill myself, if it means nothing else will keep me from sleeping tonight.
Leave me alone. Leave me alone.
You did enough to ruin me.
My broken soul canât take another day.
I beg for you to leave.
God, if youâre waiting for me, wonât you please open the gates?
Open the gates.
âGod, if you can hear me, open the gates.â
