The Dillinger Escape Plan
Album • 2007
You want a vision you can't have (A line that you can't walk) Writhing around on the floor, you won't be aware until it's too late Because you, you never look around You're like a deer in the headlights, baby Queen of delusion, you will never learn compassion Start a fire, and you can never put it out You're burning up in the blaze you started I want to see you face down Because I know that you play that part so well At our wake the casket is open ready for the viewing But we are still moving, already we smell of rot There will be no comeback, no coming back for any one of us now Don't you realize there is nowhere you can hide? Where I'm from, there is never a rest for the hunted No way you and I will ever be done, we're never apart Whatever you're doing, we will always cross your mind, yeah You were young and now you pay the price for her Price for her, price for her, price for her Price for her Price for her Price for her Price for her

I don't know your name, but I know you Do you lust for fame or forgiveness? Well I'll give you everything you want Well I'll give you everything you need You won't be perfect so best to freeze you in this state Go on home, you shouldn't be walking around on this day Now you've stuffed your throat You've walked on your burial ground Oh, you'll draw the crowd With honey porcelain skin and crystal baby blues Your picture in my pocket, I'm obsessed with you Oh, sweetie, there's no sense in crying when you're above them all Barricade the door, you can hold my hand for comfort when you fall You wear your skin so fresh Your smell intoxicates, little starlet

Got so much salt from your lies poured into me You didn't see yourself dead already So full of life with every breath that you breathe But you forget that in your fairy tale I'm the wolf All this attention got you thinking that you're a queen You think that everything you're doing isn't a dream Long as it feels alright I had gotten frozen by the way you walked By the love that you gave, by that look on your face It's a cover-up I know everything I had gotten frozen by the way you walk By the love that you gave, by that look on your face It's a cover-up I know everything, I know everything You're made for four-letter fame Regret is part of your name It's something you couldn't tell It's what you wanted to feel It's what you're dying to feel Check out your face on the wall, like what you see? I'm sure you see yourself, oh, so unique You're just a sucker for the flame of the week But you forget that in your fairy tale, bitch, I'm the wolf All this attention got you thinking you were a queen You thought that everything in life you want should be free Nothing is what you think I had gotten frozen by the way you walked By the love that you gave, by that look on your face It's a cover-up I know everything I had gotten frozen by the way you walked By the love that you gave, by that look on your face It's a cover-up I know everything, I'm your everything I know everything You're made for four-letter fame Regret is part of your name It's something you couldn't tell It's what you wanted to feel It's what you're dying to feel You're made for four-letter fame Regret is part of your name It's something you couldn't tell It's what you wanted to feel It's what you're dying to feel You're made for four-letter fame Regret is part of your name It's something you couldn't tell It's what you wanted You're made for four-letter fame Regret is part of your name It's something you couldn't tell It's what you wanted to feel It's what you're dying to feel You're made for four-letter fame Regret is part of your name It's something you couldn't tell It's what you wanted to feel It's what you're dying to feel

I could never have, standing here with you One regret, one mistake, nothing we could do After this is done, you can go your way Don't forget, this is how everything should be Don't you ever go, don't you ever go

Now you laugh forever, you laugh The winner and the best man, yeah Corrupter, shapeshifter, your voice is the sound of nothing Butcher of every art form, peddler of deceit Watching the hour hand drag, destroyer of the past We're smart enough to say we're sorry Not smart enough to start again Dancing in death's illusion, the pride before the fall The pride before the fall Candy for the children, give it to them all

Fallen angel how you've changed Poison runs through your veins You were never a saint but now you're a sin Spoiled, rotten from within Who clipped your wings so useless? Cut, you cut them yourself? Chewed off your own? Good thinking You were coming apart and I thought I could help you through the fever Not the first one, not the last one I'm not sorry for you, I know truth will set you free I remember a time when everything that you knew I thought I already knew in my mind And I thought you knew the same And I thought you knew the same And I thought you knew the same And I thought you knew I know truth will set you free I know truth will set you free, cracked and crazy, baby I know truth will set you free

Woah! My thick tongue hangs down low to the ground Licking up the sweat dropping off of her heels She wants my teeth to wear, she wants My hell to bear Well, Missy, it's a lock for load If you wanna grind hips don't do it alone Don't save no dance, no not for me Just cut me out You crept up like a disease Looking like a girl who was trying to be saved Your heart was trying to bleed Now you're taking the wrong road if you're talking to me Well, you thought you'd tear my skin from bone Just 'cause it was cold and you needed a coat Don't tease me, just start digging the hole Start digging, oh You're getting so sleepy tonight When you want to go home but you don't have a ride No time, just taste, won't touch for free My salt, your sweet You crept up like a disease Looking like a girl who was trying to be saved Your heart was trying to bleed Now you're taking the wrong road if you're talking to me And you were there And I was every question that never had an answer I see right through you You never even noticed that there always was a reason That we were never meant to be left alone My thick tongue hangs down low to the ground Licking up the sweat dropping off of her heels She wants my teeth to wear, she wants My hell to bear Well, Missy, it's a lock for load If you wanna grind hips don't do it alone Don't save no time, no not for me Just cut me out And you were there And I was every question that never had an answer I see right through you You never even noticed that there always was a reason That we were never meant to be left alone This feels like never ending, this feels like never ending This feels like never ending, this feels like never ending This feels like never ending, this feels like never ending This feels like never ending, this feels like never ending

You are only the faded star of my design Junked out lost potential and crazy from your questions answered Walk forth, you're the fulfillment of a fallacy A creature from a fantasy, don't think that you ever knew me Don't you ever see? We are forever entwined, stuck in a play we can't get out of Don't you ever see? Won't you ever see? You and I will never be able to end this We are forever entwined, stuck in a play we can't leave You say someday we can start up again without a plan No sign of the pressure I say you're crazy, I hope you see my face in the mirror You will never learn You're forever dead to me, won't you ever see your shadow?

I made a big mistake with you tonight The way our insides burned like moths flying to light As the sun begins to set I cannot find my way back Walking with my eyes on fire I never found the payback We'll never feel like anything is wrong But the tragedy is not just our own sad song I, I know the games we play Give us a way A way for us to see if we still feel alive As the sun begins to set I cannot find my way back Walking with my eyes on fire I never found the payback We'll never feel like anything is wrong But the tragedy is not just our own sad song Walls we have built and bridges we have burned The deeper the hole, the farther we feel from harm Time is always right behind us Like the lamb under the gun I'll hold on to this forever That is never long enough Time is always right behind us Like the lamb under the gun I'll hold on to this forever That is never long enough

Stumbling over dead forgotten Catch you and the secret falls away, falls away You were drunken from delusion Slipped and so the secret fell away, fell away I see tears in your eyes Yeah, this party is a bore and you're the joke Me and you, we are the light Sit with me, give me your hand Sit with me, give me your hand Hey, you should go your way, you are no friend of mine Life still lives on lives, red sea inside these walls Commerce is your god, cannibalistic flies Monarch of your womb, messiah of your thighs How sacred is the web that must be spun? Your taste is on the tip of every tongue Down, let's lay down, take me all the way, all the way Down, let's lay down, take me all the way, all the way Shout, shout out loud, make us proud for days, all the way Down, let's lay down, take me all the way, all the way Down, give to fire, beyond the soul desire Down, give to fire, beyond the soul desire Down, give to fire, beyond the soul desire Down, give to fire, beyond the soul desire

Our trust runs out tonight, everything we said dissolves And now we say our last goodbye, nothing to resolve I never imagined you'd turn into this, but then the end was always close We could feel it all along Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where we could hide all the lies? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know where? Don't you know? You were a mouth without a heart, an action without meaning And you walk afraid And you walk afraid Reaching for the hands that turned closed Reaching for the hands that turned closed You were a mouth without a heart, an action without meaning And you walk afraid And you walk afraid Reaching for the hands that turned closed Reaching for the hands that turned closed
