This Machine Runs on Empty

Somethings are better off to die Nothing is left unsaid Sewn up the eyes to stop the cries Withered away just to sever the ties How could you adore this pain in me Coming for you, wanting to kill In the eyes of a murderer Coming for you, wanting to kill Everything that you are. Mistakes made then, no no never again You are a tragedy Coming for you, wanting to kill Everything that you are Everything you are Wanted to kill This beast in a bottle Consumes my trust Empty pools of blood Where I breathe the words, kill The beast in a bottle See the grey only to be brave Recarnation

Storming with sound, shut off my senses It hurts when you cry, my bones rot waiting for you Tired, eyes inside This loneliness, regrets The absence of you, suffers This is my all If I could only reach you Past this universe, past this eclipse of silence, between us (between us) I'd prove you're worth, a minute, a lifetime Tired, eyes inside This loneliness, regrets The absence of you, suffers This is my all Break the silence Break the silence Go! Tired, eyes inside This loneliness, regrets The absence of you, suffers This is my all I will prove that you are Worth a minute A lifetime Fucking go!

Coped with this, for far to long now Nothing, could ever replace those times The memories of, my love, for you Changed my life Took the full turn only to Be taken away I am somber A void that will never be filled A heartbeat that is never forgotten The memories of, my love, for you I have, lost my, entire, world! Look down on me now Down on me now The memories of you I have, lost my, entire, world! Coped with this, for far to long now Nothing, could ever replace those times Looking down on me now With only these words to say I will be home some day.

[spoken words:] Living life so filled with hate, this cannot be forgiven. It will take a million days, a million days without this shame. I have told you one hundred times And before I could speak those words You interrupted me with all the lies That you hold so dear to you Was it worth every minute? It's all that I am. Was it worth every minute? To take a stand and lie to me I will never forgive you for everything It will take a million days A million days without, this, life, of, shame Don't tell me I am wrong I'm living proof I am right I am, I am right This is your proof Your proof Living life with so much hate This cannot be forgiven It will take a million days A million days without, this, shame (It's all that I am) Don't tell me I am wrong I'm living proof I am right I am, I am right A million days You live with shame I told you to prove me wrong

This shining star Wakens me tonight With a lonely kiss Chipping away at this dark wall Solitude and demise Glory beyond this I confess She started this dying heart Clutched inside of her hand A moment of clarity This moment of sin Our moment of hope For this to never end I lay upon her feet Staring back at the sun Waiting for the answer Buried inside of this lust A moment of clarity This moment of sin Our moment of hope For this to never end Inside the screams A tortured melody Pillows cover my face Only to weather the storm Without a warning of Every wishful day A moment of clarity This moment of sin Our moment of hope For this to never end Trust in me now More than you ever have I lay upon her feet Staring back at the sun Waiting for the answer Buried inside of this lust A moment of clarity in ourselves It's our moment in clarity

A voice that stands true These melodies were long overdue You tortured the once weak We're still strong alive and awake Denied through your final judgement No longer exist in the moment Paid with blood for years Deceiver Depression full speed control This moment not anymore No apologies from inside you Once told a coward, never again Wishes for an unending darkness A nightmare of seduction This machine runs on empty Better believe We're coming filthy A voice that stands true These melodies were long overdue The time is now Right fucking now

I have warned from the outside You fade silently down as you hide You would say you cannnot see Look behind you and take a hint See the sign and take it in Time to breathe We're dying on the inside Throughout my dark lifeless mind The strangers kiss Could kill us all in due time Tear down this wall Enough is enough your heart is on my sleeve Listen to me I'll tell you who I am I'll tell you what to do Unforgiving days, unforgiving love Tear down this wall Time to breathe Enough is enough your heart is on my sleeve We're dying on the inside On the inside Throughout my dark lifeless mind The strangers kiss Could kill us all in due time Tear down this wall Enough is enough Unforgiving days is all we will know Unforgiving love is all we will ever have All we'll ever have

Chained down with dirty razors A sex goddess A queen A beautiful lady Broken down, distant memories Never once thought I'd soon be dead Never once dreamed I'd be crowned king I should have seen this one coming Spoke the words of nothing You are the piss inside my dirt Hated since birth You're the angel You're the creep You're the souless caitiff Nothing but defeat And your cries And your tears Cannot save you tonight I am the maker I am the savior I am the maker Forever the savior I ripped open your chest Squeezed your cold heart Blood dripped slowly I started to fuck Crown me king Maker Savior Never once thought I'd soon be dead Never once dreamed I'd be crowned king And your cries And your tears Cannot save you tonight I am the maker I am the savior I am the maker Forever the savior Crown me king

This souless life Addiction of denial Drained and frail Existing in our shadows Inhale Exhale You're only choking now Inhale Exhale You're falling to the ground I'll be your ghost YEAH You said that you will never lie You said that you would never lie, you would never lie To just end this life Thrashed inside those absent eyes Trails of smoke and lust Burn below this trust Inhale Exhale You're only choking now Inhale Exhale You're falling to the ground I'll be your ghost YEAH You said that you would never lie You said that you would never lie, you would never lie You said you would never lie You said that you would never lie, you would never lie You would never lie Never lie You said you would never lie You said you would never lie You will never get what you wanted We've been through this a thousand times I gave you everything I'll be your ghost I'll be your ghost I gave you everything

Should I feel helpless? Should I be brave? Why should I believe anything you say? Will I be saved? Will I betray these dreams kept silenced for another day? Follow the straight lines Tomorrow's left behind Follow Straight lines Tomorrow's left behind Follow Straight lines Hollow on the inside Could I be unloved? or be despised? Could I bear to witiness your demise? Will I be saved? Will I betray these dreams kept silenced for another day? Follow the straight lines Tomorrow's left behind Follow Straight lines Tomorrow's left behind Follow Straight lines Hollow on the inside Before I become all I hate I'll watch you burn We can see through you
