The Heartless Control Everything

Came to compromise for all of me that has withered up and Faded like a fallen sunset Came to compromise and let this music paint our silence Like a fallen sunset And it's each beat pounding in my head This too-familiar sound of failure This song I can't get out of my head This too-familiar sound repeating Every note making up for words unsaid This too-familiar sound We've all sang this same hymn of infatuation We're making up for each bitter tongue Letting the world know in different ways Taking our feelings, we can't express And showcasing them as if, as if they really mattered Here we go Save me (Save me) These strings are the only ones connected to my heart That no one can play with These are the only strings connected to my heart That no one can play with We're letting the world know We're making up for each bitter tongue We both are letting the world know in different ways Taking our feelings, we can't express And showcasing them as if, as if they really mattered

It's safe to come out now No one is around This sugar-coated donut lost its flavor long ago And I just don't know what to think When your disguise begins to show Now I know I always think too slow 'Cause I never thought I would miss Our sweet forever of passion violence But I can't forget the wretched torment It's on its noose and hung beneath my rib You're hung beneath my rib This is an ordinary war This is the war that makes the world— Safe from democracy, and democracy was made safe from At the very same time— This is an ordinary war This is the war that makes the world more like— Can't you see Can't you see (Can't you see?) Why can't you see? My heart is branded (My heart is branded), it's all your fault You're hanging from my rib (From my rib), and I hope you fall My heart is branded, it's all your fault You're hanging from my rib, and I hope you fall 'Cause I never thought I would miss Our sweet forever of passion violence But I can't forget the wretched torment It's on its noose and hung beneath my ribs

This melody never seemed quite right Nothing you could ever sing along to Eerie rhythms creeping through doors If I close my eyes Count to ten, you will never see me You won't have to see me You won't ever see me Hide in sanction I'll show you how I bury myself tonight This fear runs through my veins Run, run as fast as you can Never look behind, I'll never turn around Run, run, I'll run 'til I am Never look behind, I'll never turn around Run, run (Run, run) as fast as you can (You can) I'll never look behind, I'll never turn around Run 'til I find who I am I'll never look behind, I'll never turn around As I fall face down (As I— face down) I was young and now I still remember, still remember Everything and all the pain you caused But now, I can't resist these evil thoughts I still remember I still remember everything (Everything) All the pain you caused (And all the pain you caused) I'm living in this misery, resisting evil thoughts I still remember everything (And now I can't) All the pain you caused (Resist these evil thoughts) I'm living in this misery, resisting evil thoughts This is what's been haunting me Being tossed around blatantly I scream out loud I scream out loud I can't scream any louder

Let's let the memories drift away Let's let the memories drift away I'm taking down these pictures of you on my wall These scars still bleed, and I'm letting them drip on our past I'm torn between decision and dead reckoning If I'm not fair, then tell me, why do you still care? "Get out the car and walk away" I said with dried tears in my eyes, hoping you'd ignore my words You slammed the door and spun around as fast as you could To get away from all this mess So take this night (So take this night) And search for your answers I know you'll find what's right, and you'll still put me through hell I'm taking down these pictures of you on my wall These scars still bleed, and I'm letting them drip on our past I'm torn between decision and dead reckoning If I'm not fair, then tell me, why do you still care? These scars run deep, and they cover me Like an open wound without breathing room I can't heal like this, but it's you I miss This war won't end These words are coming out slowly And I mean it when I say I need you This war won't end You keep your heart where I can barely reach it And yet it's right in front of me This war won't end It'd be better off for the both of us if we'd took these truths and walked away This war won't end I'm taking down these pictures of you on my wall These scars still bleed, and I'm letting them drip on our past I'm torn between decision and dead reckoning If I'm not fair, then tell me, why do you still care? Let's let the memories drift away

?elims s'enoemos nekat ev'uoy taht wonk ot leef ti seod woH We're on a search to find the feeling for which we all die It appeared the answer to the problem And a reason to smile Two lost hearts and one caught in the middle They came together, and the other fell apart It appeared the answer to the problem I have no reason to smile The connection, eyes meeting Lips touching, screaming, "Sweet sayonara" (And the other gracious sounds of Claudio) Sweat, spit, and tears exchanged alike Mistakes made and forgiveness, but the eyes still met And the lover still loved, and the liar still lied Then came the downfall (Downfall) to (Downfall) one's heaven Stuck in a (A world) world where nothing is beautiful (Where nothing is beautiful) The nail was in the coffin; it hadn’t been buried yet Nothing but an open casket for him to kneel and weep The nail was in the coffin; it hadn't been buried yet (The nail was in the coffin, but it hadn't been buried yet Nothing but an open casket for him to kneel and to weep) Nothing but an open casket for him to kneel and weep (A lover and liar, the pain finally stopped for him, deciding to take his own life And the blood of a body that was once so pure) That was pure and strong It's come together, it's time to change what the script reads There's no such thing as happy endings This masterpiece is finally ending slowly Microphone psychiatry, goodbye for good It's come together, it's time to change what the script reads There's no such thing as happy endings This masterpiece is finally ending slowly Microphone psychiatry Two lost hearts and one caught in the middle They came together, and the other fell apart It appeared the answer to the problem I have no reason to smile Cravings fulfilled hate on oneself Goodbye for good (Goodbye for good)

Why don't you use your knives? Continue to stick them in my face Leave them to be our memories That I plan to lose Just like I lost you (Lost you) I guess I'll just cope with what I can't control After all, it means the best for the both of us At night, when you hear me breathing Under the covers is where you'll find me Trying to escape your endless reign of terror (Terror) Stale sweat running all over my body I'm drowning in my dreams, I'm drowning in my dreams I can't wake now I'll sleep forever I can't wake now "Death is only the beginning" What if tomorrow never comes How will I know you loved me? I just need something to live for So I'll never die again What if tomorrow never comes How will I know you loved me? I just need something to live for So I'll never die again (Again) I will be able to sleep at night With a smile upon her face I will be able to sleep at night With a smile upon her face

Last night, your taste was beautiful But my tongue doesn't know the truth 'Cause when it's drowned in poison chemicals I see the better side of you (Better side of you) Our promise was that we would save ourselves Before our minds lost all control But then our clothes (Then our clothes) hit the floor Now, today, you called and told me that it only hurts more The phone's been off the hook for three hours now (My heart beats) My heart beats fast as the pulse of the tone Blocking conversation, I'm hiding from your lies Lies that make you take back what's been said I'm so angry (I'm so angry), it's hard to even talk anymore With words as my weapon, I would say to you, "Now it's over" No shields can prevent these sharp syllables I tell myself you'll never let go (You will never let this go) Still, I'm the one who is blamed for this, yeah Lies depicted a remainder of trust Something deeper than a story (Will you hold) Will you hold my eyelids open As I paste your blood on my pupils? Then teach me to see with my ears So I'll find out what true beauty really is Why can't I take back all the time that I wasted on you And use it on friends that won't bring me down? 'Cause every time it seems the same way And I know that they're there for me And they hate to see I'm ruined (See I'm ruined) So, give me one good reason why you're still in love I see you standing all alone And if that one good reason is not enough I want to be let go Give me one good reason why you're still in love Hey, give me one good reason why you're still in love What happened?
