Wasted On You

You're coming around now saying sorry
Saying my name like you still want me
(well) I might be rough on the tongue
 But I'll be second to none
It doesn't matter now even if you're sorry

You walked away like all the lovers do
And every word I said was just
Wasted on you


It's mostly in the morning when I miss you
But also at night, I can't seem to get you off of my mind
(well) I'm only saying this because it's true, I still want to be with you
You mean the world to me
And baby, I'm sorry

It doesn't matter if I stay away
I wake up every day still
Wasted on you

I want you now
I need you now
Like I never did before
...like I never did before


I heard you're dragging chains, you say you can't forget me
It's like white hot and wasted was all you ever wanted to be
(well) I never had a lover quite like you
Who made me feel the way that you do
Sometimes these things just don't work out the way you want them to

I'm only saying this because it's true
I will always be wasted on you
Wasted
Wasted on you

Holy Ghost Letter

Your Kingdom's coming down,
your Love has asked around
I'm coming with you,
we'll sway to the sound of an empty heart

I'll destroy you
and you will destroy me too
We're lost and loaded, let's all
go to Hell and sit by the window

Eating bitter still,
I woke up chasing smoke
I want to catch and hold
but I settled in
I'm much too slow

I'm already won,
oh so dear and young,
oh how I miss you son

In the dying light of a wasted life
I won't say goodbye
As you faded out I was not
looking back over my shoulder
My last look at you
won't be over my shoulder

I'm already won,
oh so dead and done,
oh how I miss you son

In the morning
I'll get up to go
and I'll leave this town
And I won't look back

I won't look back

Silverheels

I'm on fire
And you're a burning angel
These little demons of my silences come to drag me back to you

This love is quick
We are circuits in a dream
Bent, burned and blown
Now we finally have wings

Let me make myself clear
Right from the beginning
I miss the lonely feeling
Every time I close my eyes

I deny myself the truth about it anyway and say I just might not be what you wanted anyway

I dream of Mina Lisa when I'm lying in my bed
You are the truth and I am a liar

These are my remains
Go on and pick me over
You know, I really don't care if you just don't get me anymore
What I've got is time
A killer keeps an open mind
I'm taking my shot
Don't care if nobody 's looking

Let me make myself clear
Right from the beginning
I miss the lonely feeling
Every time I close my eyes

I tell myself if we can rise above it, it will be okay
If I can find a way that I can live without you, it will be okay

I dream of Mina Lisa when I'm lying in my bed
Little demons come to take me home to you instead
You are the seraphim
The echo and the fire
You are the truth and I am a liar

Let me make myself clear
Right from the beginning
I miss the lonely feeling
Every time I close my eyes

Come on and take a chance
It might be what you wanted
Come on and take a chance
I might be what you wanted

Come on and rock the ending

Bring Yrself 2 Me

you are the apple of my eye
every breath i take
i stand by my mistake

i'm just an atom bomb that wants to get to know you well
lover, please
bring yourself to me

you are a fever and disease
oh, my lover, please
bring yourself to me

i calculate the mass and volume
of every move i make, every breath i take
the steps i take from here to there will contain all my love
in an instant

you are a fever and disease
oh, my lover, please
just bring yourself to me

oh! i am taken
yes, i am taken
but i can't stop thinking of you
no, i can't stop

because i want you

you are a fever and disease
oh, my lover, please
just bring yourself to me

I Don't Want To Go

if I'm not home, if I'm not there to kiss you
just lay your precious body down and wear your pillow like a crown

if I'm not there to hold you, if I'm not there to tell you why
asleep so soft and delicate, whisper the sweetest epithet
remember, I don't want to go

if I can't seem to find you, if I can't be beside you now
just wrap your hair around the moon and know that I'll be coming soon

if I could be forgiven, inside the twinkle of an eye
I'd walk your terrors to the park, console your sad and sorry heart
remember, I don't want to go

...we will not be sleeping
called to heaven with a shout
the kings and queens are dreaming
i can only hope to tell you why

Lover's Chords

i swore an oath i would conceal my inner calling,
but these are lover's chords

this quickened pace, it knows my name, knows where i'm going
and i can feel your arms around me
sleeping in my bed

bury my blood/bury my heart
my tell-tale heart it will explode

i heard a heartbeat in a wall, a deathwatch beetle
singing a clicking song

oh hopeless night with vulture eyes and the hour of the slowest clock
is the tempo of salvation
it never ends

bury my blood/bury my heart
my tell-tale heart it will explode

Wisdom Teeth

there's a little man inside my mouth
everything he says plays in a loop

he told me how to set my mind
he says everything is gonna to be alright

he told me everything I ever wanted to know
what did he say, what did he say, what did he say?

I wasn't paying attention

then I found out that you were gone
so I sat down at the Devil's table
He told me wise, yeah he told me twice
everything that the Devil knows

come swim with me inside a dream
wrap me up and take me home
lay me out, on the couch
maybe now that's all I'm good for

now the little man inside my mouth
says he's come back to save the world
but not without you
not without you
