One of Us Is the Killer

Take, take what you can You're entitled to the prize Fill you up with All that you can take Take what you can You're the princess and the prince Fill you up with All that you can take I heard that you were the last to leave The party you just had to see Where everybody had to be the best in town Heard they tried to kick you out Because you were foaming at the mouth Holding ground you had to play Because who knows what you'll win today You've got to figure out how high you'll get by doing nothing Opportunity presents itself at every turn Stick around you never know whose ego you can stroke Which mask to wear a rung to climb to suck up Stick around you never know whose ego you can stroke A rung to climb a pill a line a mask to hide your face I'm breaking out, don't keep me down I'm missing out, don't keep me Hey, I'm freaking out Don't turn me down You're getting there for sure Real close, all over the bathroom floor Who's getting it? You sure? We need more Never mind, the night's run out Eyes are spinning, look at me You're winning, can't you see? Lights colliding, you're spun out You're climbing straight to the top (Your fortune still waiting) You keep climbing straight to the top (Your fortune still waiting) Yeah! On your hands and knees so you can Take all that you can All that you can All that you can All that you can take It's getting so close that you can taste it It's getting so close that you can taste it Woah! It's getting so close You're getting it for sure Your clothes, all over the bedroom floor Who's getting it? Are you sure? Need more Never mind, just get out

She moves abstract just Like a shadow dancing on the edge Like a storm cloud passing overhead Effortless and free As the hours rush by Through her I can sense the end of time There's no way this can forever shine Make the sun not rise In the air we tried to be But you shot your arrow through me Now one of us must die But the killer won't survive She moves abstract just Like a shadow dancing on the edge Like a storm cloud passing overhead Hypnotizing me As the hours rush by Through her I can sense the end of time Stretch into eternity divine And the sun won't rise In the air we tried to be But you shot your arrow through me Now one of us must die But the killer won't survive In the air we tried to be But you shot your arrow through me Now one of us must die And the killer won't survive And the killer won't survive Survive Survive In the air we tried to be But you shot your arrow through me Now one of us must die But the killer won't survive In the air we tried to be But you shot your arrow through me Now one of us must die And the killer won't survive And the killer won't survive

Took my lover to the sea Drowned him precious bride to be Bleeding heaven from the start Woe is rapture ripped apart Hey you’re honest, aren’t you? Show me rapture torn apart Everybody’s riddled with disease But I bet you say, “not me” So honest, aren’t you? You’re so honest, aren’t you so? My, aren’t you Surely finest of the brigade? My, aren’t you Always right a portrait of dignity? My, aren’t you Innocent and never suspectable My, aren’t you Wait You smell like shit, not the truth Full of device, not devotion Conscience came right up to you And then you threw it back You are the scum of the earth You are the scum of the ocean To you it’s above as below You smear your filth across the world You smear your filth across the world You smear your filth across the world You smear your filth across the world

You’re an image pale that points and laughs White mistress in a fiery bath Now tie me down and take me home, I’m not afraid to go Now tie me down and take me home, I’m not afraid to go (Shake the roots off of the trees) Your conscience fades (Eyes have no vision to see) Your soul degrades (Grey follows in front of me) You’ve lost your way (Every life is but a death to me) Eventually the jokes aren’t free And nothing’s ever fun and nothing’s funny Blunt self believe, too big to fall Lead shadow stands just inches tall I hope to God you never die (Your joke is just my type) (Shake the roots off of the trees) Your conscience fades (Eyes have no vision to see) Your soul degrades (Grey follows in front of me) You’ve lost your way (Every life is but a death to me) Eventually the jokes aren’t free And nothing’s ever fun and nothing’s funny But now I see that the joke’s on me And nothing’s ever fun and nothing’s funny (Don't be scared) (Don’t be scared) Don’t be scared Don’t be scared Don’t be scared Don’t be scared Don’t be scared Don’t be scared Eventually the jokes aren’t free And nothing’s ever fun and nothing’s funny But now I see that the joke’s on me And nothing’s ever fun and nothing’s funny Your joke is just my type

Drag the knife across the skin, tempted to succumb Carving fervor into flesh, holy we’ve become Turning lips to everyone, giving heart to none Running backwards, erasing time, seek the fire but never die The cradle wipes blood red fresh And through you the host has chosen a name The cradle wipes blood red fresh And through you the host has chosen a name Call the name out Call the name out Call the name out Call the name out I’ll never be like you, late to my own funeral I’ll never be like you, late to my own funeral We’ll never be so late, like you to our funerals I’ll never be like you, late to my own funeral We’ll never be so late, like you to our funerals Push decay inside me for then I can open all the passages into the world Push your fate inside me for then I can open all the passages to other worlds Push decay inside me for then I can open all the passages into the world Push your fate inside me for then I can open all the passages to other worlds Push decay inside me for then I can open all the passages into the world Push your fate inside me for then I can open all the passages to other worlds

You will never find anything Like a forest in search of its trees You will never gain anything Take a bullet to kill a wet dream I will always be anything Like a shadow inside of the cave I can never give anything Break a sweat just to have some relief You were always revolting me Like an echo held up to my face You were always in search of me Takes a second to find what you seek I will never give anything Break a sweat just to have some relief I will always be everything Like a shadow inside of the cave I feel you close, heating up my coals But there isn't a hell that I would burden with you Death brings us close, isn't that morose? But there isn't a fire that I would waste to burn you We are both just a fantasy Won’t you please keep imagining me You've become such a piece of me Always were work that I couldn't see I will never give anything Break a sweat just to have some relief I will always be everything Like a shadow inside of the cave I feel you close, heating up my coals But there isn't a hell that I would burden with you Death brings us close, isn't that morose? But there isn't a fire that I would waste to burn you I’ll be with you when you die Always by your side holding onto nights How’d we let this go so far? Because I don’t know where we are Bring it back to life I’ll be with you when you die Always by your side holding onto nights We’ll try to hold the earth still How’d we ever get this far? Because I don’t know where we are Bring it back to my beginning Your beginning I could just go to sleep but I want to scream I’d wake you up but then you’d see what I mean I've manifested you in fever daydream I feel you close, heating up my coals But there is a hell that I would burden with you Death brings us close, isn't that morose? But there is a fire that I would waste to burn you

Out of the vile, I can see you hold the grace infinite Shine out the dark miracle Felt you reaching out Caught you as we were both falling down, down We were tricked and scared stiff From the clock that ticks slow laughing Take this gift for nothing don’t feel shame Sordid salted eyes slow burning from outside Closed swollen drop your shield Start searching don’t look far You had to be an angel stripped like Abel Caught to burn for everyone But still there is a glowing unconsumed that grows new All of the stars to shine but when falling mesmerize Don’t look away, stop and stare to catch your reflection And move on to the light for you deserve You don’t have to burn for anyone You hold grace you can’t see A self that is no self, no shell depicts a true projection Caught you as we fell, now shine out the light from the dark

I just could not believe, that so much could be unseen Are you for real? Were you for real? I caught you by the throat and tried to squeeze But you weren't real, you were not real Turn your boat you stowaway It’s better there here’s not okay I’m sorry it’s so far away You break your back for little things Like compliments and wedding rings I hate that little song you sing, that song you sing Turn your boat you stowaway It’s better there here’s not okay I’m sorry you’re so far away Turn your boat around you stow away Seems you can’t stop making sound But nothing I can’t read about Your 2 cents fall right on the ground Right on the ground Turn your boat you stowaway It’s better there here’s not okay I’m sorry it’s so far away Turn your boat around you stowaway I just could not believe, so much could be unseen Are you for real? Were you for real? Because you don’t listen, you never listen You don’t listen, you don’t listen I've caught you by the throat and tried to squeeze But you weren't real, you were not real Why’d I never listen? Turn your boat you stowaway It’s better there here’s not okay I’m sorry we’re so far away I’m sorry we’re so far away I’m sorry we’re so far away

I spoke to the sky but God was silent because I knew So easy to be rolled into a tomb Stripped of all desires So easy to be So easy to be rolled into a tomb So easy to be rolled into a tomb Into a tomb Old tears spice the soil New taste to pave the path My medium We were so compelled, and I shook when I saw: you were the “I” recognized Now that it’s cold and the core never thaws, I found you to keep me alive Please run far and go faster I’m a cancer for your life so leave But still you’re weaving your hair into rags Fast-forward to far away We’ve never changed We just need to stalk our prey to make us stay We’re fucking spiders spinning to pass the time Soul dividers, eating our kind alive You, child, don’t you go forgetting mistakes or they’ll keep reliving Marrow numbered, you awakened Now let’s burn this we created
