Turn off the lights and turn me on She is a dead ringer for all of these dead singers Advocate the devil in me (Where do you think you're going?) Run it dry until I'm ready to go It's a frenzy, it's a feeding Rags to riches entertaining I'm still searching in my sheets for you I'm gonna get you too I'm still looking, as I sing out for you You're surrounded, hiding in those pretty people I got hungry (Come here) so I ate the hand after I ate Everything it had been feeding me I'm so over the top of her dead body (I'm so perfect, I know I wanna make you practice You all look the same, catch me spitting on your image) It's a frenzy, it's a feeding Rags to riches entertaining I'm still searching in my sheets for you I'm gonna get you too I'm still looking, as I sing out for you You're surrounded, hiding in those pretty people I can take you, I can make you perfect Just the way I want you to be On the screen for all the world to see I'm never gonna let you go I'm never gonna let you go I'm still searching in my sheets for you I'm gonna get you too I'm still looking, as I sing out for you You're surrounded, hiding in those pretty people

Away with the sheets Exploding like the stars across the sky This mirror is feeding me lies I look so beautiful, but just as desperate A victim with a plague with veins reaching to the sky I'm chewing on my teeth and staring into a black hole Let go of your demons She's in love (She's in love) She's in love with herself And I never should have trusted someone else with my insides Goodbye never feels complete; there's always one word missing I want to forget you You've broken everything I love Took all my light and turned it into dust I regret all I gave you You've broken everything I love And I can't wait to be myself again I feel the separation I feel it deep inside my bones I know you're sharing beds with strangers in sharp corners Goodbye never feels complete; there's always one word missing I want to forget you You've broken everything I love Took all my light and turned it into dust I regret all I gave you You've broken everything I love And I can't wait to be myself again Manipulate, play with my insides Splash around in my blood Splash around in my blood Take what you want Take what you want from me This is love This is love I want to forget you You've broken everything I love Took all my light and turned it into dust I regret all I gave you You've broken everything I love And I can't wait to be myself again This is love This is love This is love This is love This is love

Living lonely in thick crowds I raise my hand and I question the normal Follow my heart and can't trust my head Won't do what you tell me, I'm not good with order Busy streets feel like islands and I'm yelling from the shore Isolation hits and all you hear are voices Singing their songs in my head I beg them to tell me, I just want to know What the hell are we here for? Tell me, do I offend you? 'Cause I don't want to fit into your world Into your heart, I, I hope I scare you and I I've tried that, I've tried that before I can't go on as something I am not You don't have to pretend when you're alone I'm not lost, I'm still figuring out what to do when these voices are Singing their songs in my head I can't fight the darkness, I just let it show What the hell are we here for Tell me, do I offend you? 'Cause I don't want to fit into your world Into your heart, I, I hope I scare you and I I've tried that, I've tried that before I can't go on as something I am not (I won't give up who I am) (You can't hold me down) (I won't give up) Tell me, do I offend you? 'Cause I don't want to fit into your world Into your heart, I, I hope I scare you and I I've tried that, I've tried that before I can't go on as something I am not

I hear the sound of the clock And the drip of running water I never thought it would be like this It's 3 AM, and I can't sleep I had it all planned out Find a girl and get married Do things that make your dreams Oh, look at me What more could you need? I knew that I could win a room because I've always had it But love is a scary thing It's what they never taught And I don't know now what's gotten me this far All I wanted was the world, all you wanted was me! It's only in the end when you were gone I didn't realize what I had lost These one night stands are meaningless But I'm laying in bed with a girl I just met at 3 AM I wish I would of loved you instead of being selfish And being so obsessed with my dreams Oh, look at me I'm surrounded by the lonely I thought I could win you back because I've always had it But love is a tricky thing It's what they never taught, that when you lose what you love You lose a piece of your heart All I wanted was the world, all you wanted was me! It's only in the end when you were gone I didn't realize what I had lost These one night stands are meaningless But I'm laying in bed with a girl I just met at 3 AM Everyday I still learn From the mistakes that I have made Who knew that things would be this way I'm here because I wouldn't change I've fallen on my face But watch me get up again! It's only in the end when you were gone I didn't realize what I had lost Now everything else is meaningless So I'm laying in bed sick with regret at 3 AM

The moonlight is calling your attention And I don't think I can make a sound The champagne has died I heard the cry of what might have been The sound lights up the air like the stars in the sky And you don't want to say a word I rather show you what's on my mind A stitch, a touch, a spit shot of lemonade On a sunny day, where the kids will go out to play Shadows for suburban homes I’m so scared of the things that I’ll never know I put all of my faith in a dial tone They say they'll be there But you know they won't You know they won't The sunlight is demanding your affection And my eyes won't leave the ground The champagne, it died I heard the cries from inside your skin The shell that top the air like a starlet when she dies And you don't want to say a word The eulogies are all mine A snitch, a crutch, a weak spot, a hand grenade On a sunny day, where the kids will go out to play Shadows for suburban homes I’m so scared of the things that I’ll never know I put all of my faith in a dial tone They say they'll be there But you know they won't You know they won't Welcome to society's idea of a perfect family With a love straight from a fairy tale And two perfect little angels Take a seat, sit right down, and welcome to all of the lies The attention, the guilt, the hate, the unspoken misery Cheating, faking, hiding, pretending Neglecting, demeaning, fighting The resentment, the drugs, the abuse Have a seat, get uncomfortable, and enjoy the show A stitch, a touch, a spit shot of lemonade On a sunny day, where the kids go out to play Shadows for suburban homes I’m so scared of the things that I’ll never know I put all of my faith in a dial tone They say they'll be there But you know they won't You know they won't

I see the world through these shame-colored glasses So don't act like I'm out here searching for dramatics When it follows you, you can't seem to escape When all you liars it seems like all you do is hate Yeah, that drama ship, yeah, it follows me It ruins every relationship I could ever see Yet you won't stop shaking and all you do is fake it It's like you bite it, then you fight it, then deny it But I was born this way and I can never change I hope I scare you to death and leave you shaking in your grave Do you want to be born again? I can chase away those demons Hand in hand, you could tell me all your secrets I know what you want, but you won't let it go I know what you want, but you have to follow If you want to know who you are Just come with me into the dark Come with me into the dark I heard that you shake when you think of me I'm going to take you to the places that you've never seen Running from the things your minds won't let you explain, explain Just between you and me, yeah, we got places to be Dressed up so scary like it's Halloween Yet you won't stop shaking, all you do is fake it It's like you buy it, then you fight it, then deny it But I was born this way and I can never change I hope I scare you to death and leave you shaking in your grave Do you want to be born again? I can chase away those demons Hand in hand, you could tell me all your secrets I know what you want, but you won't let it go I know what you want, but you have to follow If you want to know who you are Just come with me into the dark Come with me into the dark I can do anything I want and I do In you, you've got your insecurities and I've got mine But I got my duct tape Do you want to be born again? I can chase away those demons Hand in hand, you could tell me all your secrets I know what you want, but you won't let it go I know what you want, but you have to follow If you want to know who you are just come with me into the dark Come with me into the dark Come with me into the...

Each time I wake up I rush to my knees and beg to stop I can’t breathe, I can’t think Will I ever make this right? Stop and check your pulse With truth and love all tied up I can’t see, I can’t be Will I ever make this? I believed you when you called me the villain Like the Devil, I was cast out and defined by sin I believed I could be some kind of hero, but I got lost And on my way to Heaven, I was dragged through Hell For dust you are and to dust you will return Jealousy’s something I’ve been missing I’m afraid my faith’s been replaced I’m afraid I’ve fallen from grace All of my love has turned to hate Can I ever make this right? I believed you when you called me the villain Like the Devil, I was cast out and defined by sin I believed I could be some kind of hero, but I got lost And on my way to Heaven, I was dragged through Hell I’ve been lying low (But never hiding) The longer I’m down here The more you will doubt, my dear I believed you when you called me the villain Like the Devil, I was cast out and defined by sin I believed I could be some kind of hero, but I got lost I believed you when you called me the villain Like the Devil, I was cast out and defined by sin I believed I could be some kind of hero, but I got lost And on my way to Heaven, I was dragged through Hell God

From your knees, you’ve lost all direction So afraid of rejection Lost, little toys in forgotten parks Do I believe in us, do I believe in lust? Am I just desperate for a pick-me-up? Maybe, I got a little lost While searching for my faith, stuck to your cross You set fire to everything around Worry yourself into the ground You take all you can And leave the part begging for more Do I believe in love; do I believe in Heaven? (At the sound of church bells, they come running) All my clocks stuck on eleven Afraid if I hit my knees, I might get nothing Devil, don’t ever let me go I’ve been looking for a tornado Chaos is something I’ve been missing Devil, don’t ever let me go I’ve been looking for a tornado Chaos is something I’ve been missing You start wars everywhere you go You take shots at everyone you know And no one can help you 'Cause you refuse to receive it yourself Do I believe in love; do I believe in heaven? At the sound of wolf cries, they come running All my clocks stuck on eleven I put too much of my faith in nothing Devil, don’t ever let me go I’ve been looking for a tornado Chaos is something I’ve been missing Devil, don’t ever let me go I’ve been looking for a tornado Chaos is something I’ve been missing This is the sound of your savior running In need of anything to save you from nothing Devil, you’re evil, yeah Devil, don’t ever let me go I’ve been looking for a tornado Chaos is something I’ve been missing Devil, don’t ever let me go I’ve been looking for a tornado Chaos is something I’ve been missing

I, I, I fucking hate you Let it go right through you Don't be afraid of the pain that you feel The resistance is what controls you Fear covered in sex appeal (Getting to know you) I know it's wrong where we're standing It's bitter and biting (Guilty, guilty) I can't forget how we spoke You weren't even listening Tell me where your love is now You're too ugly to be narcissistic I fucking hate you I'll feel alive when I watch you die I want to break you Tear you apart 'til there's nothing inside Tell me where your love is now Tell me where your love is Don't be afraid I love your touch in a hateful kind of way Come on and get a little closer (Get a little closer) Let me see the lies written on your face Tell me where your friends are now You're disgusting, don't be optimistic I fucking hate you I'll feel alive when I watch you die I want to break you Tear you apart 'til there's nothing inside Tell me where your love is now Tell me where your love is Ask God for help, I'll stop when He shows up Ask God for help, I'll stop when He shows up Tell me I am God Tell me I am God (Getting to know you) I know it's cold where we're standing It's better we're by her (Guilty, guilty) I can't forget how we spoke You weren't even listening Tell me where your love is now Tell me where your love is I fucking hate you I hate you I hate you Please die

I wake up (Wake up) This feeling There's spiders under my covers And the ghosts from my past standing over my bed I'm leaving (Get out) Can't take it So I throw off all the bed sheets Put a T-shirt on, and now I'm on my way out of the door The life that I live has taken all that I have Find your way home The only way out is to show them I can't I can't live other people's dreams Take me away (Lock me up in a cage) I won't be your hope for tomorrow Take me away (I can't change who I am) I won't be your hope for tomorrow Can't take it (Pressure) This pressure They say it's how you make diamonds But I don't see anything around here but coal Can't see straight Too angry So I keep running Until I find the place that I can call my home The life that I live has taken all that I have Find your way home The only way out is to show them I can't I can't live other people's dreams Take me away (Lock me up in a cage) I won't be your hope for tomorrow Take me away (I can't change who I am) I won't be your I won't be your hope An outcast, cast out too Hiding from the ones that shun No place is safe, nowhere to run No place is safe, nowhere to run Find your way home Take me away (Lock me up in a cage) I won't be your hope for tomorrow Take me away (I can't change who I am) I can't live, can't live your dreams

As the sun blooms, our lips are tied in knots I knew this day would come I finally know just who I am She said, "My God, I just started getting sleep again I don't think I want to learn how to feel again I've been searching myself for so long, so long And in these moments, truth is found out It's time to show you who I am" Show them that I'm more than enough Just look at all the work I've done You can tell me when it's over It's never over Look at us now, we're right back where we left off It's our time to really do things right She said, "Doctor, doctor, please, oh, won't you help me? See, I've been having trouble helping out myself And I really think I'm meant for something better Tell me, why is it called love if it hurts like hell?" You learn so much when you're out of your own way Now nothing can, no, nothing can touch me I will be unstoppable Singing all of the things I never thought I would sing You showed me life was beautiful Helped me reach all my dreams You showed me how to be free Tell me, lover, lover, come get a little closer Because you're all I have in this great, big world And there's nothing, love, that we can't do together Just stick with me and I promise you'll get what you deserve You learn so much when you're out of your own way Now nothing can, no, nothing can touch me I will be unstoppable Singing all of the things I never thought I would sing You showed me life was beautiful Helped me reach all my dreams You showed me how to be Unstoppable Singing all of the things I never thought I would sing You showed me life was beautiful Helped me reach all my dreams You showed me how to be free And I swear I'm different now From all the other say, other day Don't you disappear, I need you I need you here I will be unstoppable I will see all of the things that I never thought that I would ever see And you showed me, you showed me that life was beautiful You helped me with all of my dreams Because of you, I swear I'm different now I swear I'm different now I swear I'm different now I swear I'm different now
