In a Red Dress and Alone Lyrics
5 ContributorsIn a Red Dress and Alone LyricsLet's start it over
From the beginning
Let's play for keeps
So I know you can never get the best of me
Sometimes you have to
And other times you serve whoever saves you
And brings you to your knees, my love
Beauty fades when she dies
In a red dress and alone
But it was the best times
And you're right to love him
You're right to want to
Close the door and lock me in
Break the key and chase the blood out of my veins
Streaming down the side streets
Where the city ends and the dead ends meet
Bite your lip and smile, I've many holes to fill
And I'll find them all
She holds them in her hand
But when she lets go she knows
It's the last time that she ever will again
And you'll find that
Beauty fades when she dies
In a red dress and alone
But it was the best times
And you're right to love him
You're right to want to
Close the door and lock me in
Break the key and chase the blood out of my veins
You're right
I am not alone
I was wrong
You are not the only one
And beauty fades when she dies
In a red dress and alone
But it was the best times
And you're right to love him
You're right to want to
Close the door and lock me in
Break the key and chase the blood out of my veins
Carve my name into concrete
So that they know that I'm alive
My Damsel - A Confession to an Adversary Lyrics
5 ContributorsMy Damsel: A Confession to an Adversary LyricsRight now
Inside this capsule, your air will be an enemy instead of me
Your answers, and your reasons, and why you breathe faster is because
Inside, you hold yourself for ransom, now there is no way out
So how, how on earth did you ever find a way in?
My damned soul needs fire
My damsel breathes fire in a whisper and she cries:
"Hold on to your life and in time you'll be far away
Let go of the hate from my name, and sing songs for our escape"
Your fine charisma, my charm and twisted energy, and how they meet
Is so perfect, but the portrait is dangerous after we split hairs
And raise them 'cause we made all the changes so there's no way out
So how could you see me? You're blowing smoke here
But my damned soul needs fire
My damsel breathes fire in a whisper and she cries:
"Hold on to your life and in time you'll be far away
Let go of the hate from my name, and sing songs for our escape"
Take hold of your life and in time you'll be far away
Let go of the hate from my name, and sing songs for our escape
My damsel breathes fire
And she cries, and whispers, and she cries:
"All I wanted was your attention
All I wanted was your attention
All I want is your attention...
Right now"
Caught a Lite Sneeze Lyrics
4 ContributorsCaught a Lite Sneeze LyricsCaught a light sneeze
Caught a light breeze
Caught a lightweight lightning seed
You're on my left side
You're on my right side
I'm in the middle
And you're not here
I need a big loan from the girl zone
Building, tumbling down
Didn't know our love was so small
Couldn't stand at all
Mr. St. John, Just bring your son
The spire is hot and my cells can't feed
And you still got that Belle
Dragging your foots
I'm hiding it well Sister Ernestine
But I still got that Belle dragging my foots
Right on time
You get closer and closer
Called my name but there's no way in use that fame
Rent your wife and kids today, maybe she will
Maybe she will
Caught a light sneeze
Dreamed a little dream
Made my own pretty hate machine
You're on my left side
You're on my right side
I'm in the middle and you're not here
Boys in their dresses and you're not here
I need a big loan from the girl zone
Fear Lyrics
4 ContributorsFear LyricsGuilt reflects
And then leaves the rest to me
It started with a flash of light
Off his grip was loose and just a bit
There's a constant slip out of the positive
And you waste more perfect time than you have to give
All the fear and all the cares of the world
Never forced themselves into my arms
It was your fear that helped me
Your fear that got me to move
Straight from your heart into their sight
Grace and hope
I share along the way
It ended with a twist of fate
And now the hearts are breaking just a bit
And the consequence was a negative
So you killed more precious lives then you had let live
All the fear and all the cares of the world
Never forced themselves into my arms
It was your fear that helped me
Your fear that got me to move
Straight from your heart into their sight
For shame on you
Who cares about me anyway
I don't mind you
It'd mean so much if you'd just save me
Save me
All the fear and all the cares of the world
Never forced themselves into my arms
It was your fear that helped me
Your fear that got me to move
Straight from your heart into their sight
Painted Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If I could find the time to speak
I'd try to find a thousand ways to prove you wrong
Falling on my face
I'm chasing all the lines of your skin
And all your pirouette mistakes
[Pre-Chorus 1]
So dance until you're broken
Ignore the fight inside that scares you
[Chorus]
Look before you, end it all
Look before you, shut your eyes
For the last time
There's no more room to go back down
Your picture trends in black and white
(I will show you)
I will show you what it's like
[Verse 2]
Let them say all that they want
I'll wipe away your painted wings
'Til your heroes come
If you doubt it'll look so
Then the venom in your eyes will control you
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Well, I hate pouring my heart out
When it's fading fast
And streaming down your leg
[Chorus]
Look before you, end it all
Look before you, shut your eyes
For the last time
There's no more room to go back down
Your picture trends in black and white
(I will show you)
I will show you what it's like
[Bridge]
She whispers in his ear
(Don't hurt me)
"Don't hurt me"
(Don't forget me)
"Don't forget me"
"Don't hurt me, I'm still not properly together"
[Chorus]
Look before you, end it all
Look before you, shut your eyes
For the last time
There's no more room to go back down
Will you fight for me and not back down?
Your picture trends in black and white
(I will show you)
I will show you what it's like
(If you let me)
Your picture trends in black and white
(That we painted)
I will show you what it's like
[Instrumental]
[Guitar Solo]
[Outro]
I can see you but you can't see me
I am right here and I am waiting (16x)
Goodnight
The Pursuit Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You lived a time of lies until you told me everything
I hope we make amends, but you don't
Life taught you how to fly and then you flew away from me
You left me haunted, star the ending image of the one
[Chorus]
'Cause they're still in you too low
All the voices you don't know
And they're still in you too low
All the choices that you chose
[Verse 2]
You harbored all the wasted sighs to define the quiet drone
I'll let you start again, but you won't
I saw you pray for change and then you walked all over me
You wanted what you could not have and now you are alone
[Chorus]
'Cause they're still in you too low
All the voices you don't know
And they're still in you too low
All the choices that you chose
(Make the voices tell me who you are and who I am to be)
[Bridge]
Are you alone where you are tonight?
I'm alone when you're right here
But I'm still in you somehow
I never left at all
Now I'm stealing you too low
So my voice is all you know
[Chorus]
'Cause they're still in you too low
All the voices you don't know
And they're still in you too low
All the choices that you chose
[Outro]
Leave you nothing left to hold
When you're nothing it's a good time to remind you of one thing
The pursuit begins when this portrayal of life ends
