Architect

I’m the anarchist, the architect
I’m building myself up
Just to tear me down
And chew me out
I’m burning myself up
And it’s only ever quiet
At the bottom of a pool
When the water fills my head
With that silent sedative blue
I could speak softer but it’s getting louder
The voice in my head will drown you out
The chaos is building and I am the villain
If you’re gonna aim, best shoot me now
I’m gonna burn it to the ground
Let you know that I’m not sorry
You should run away from me
I’m my own worst enemy
I’m gonna burn it to the ground
I’ll take the words right out your mouth
And I will use my teeth
Bleeding bittеr blood
From same old scars
And I can’t find relief
And I don’t know why
I’m full of all this violеnt energy
But I’ve started all the fires
And I’ll keep chugging gasoline
I’m gonna burn it to the ground
Let you know that I’m not sorry
You should run away from me
I’m my own worst enemy
I’m gonna burn it to the ground

Lover

Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
This is the day of reckoning
The end of the line is beckoning
We’ve been slow dancing with dynamite
No holy water can save us tonight
There will be no miracles here
Lover, forgive me
I know what I do
I’m atoning for what I’ve done
Can’t be your saint
And to try would be cruel
Oh, cause lover
Oh, I’m not the one
Let mercy set you free
Lover, forgive me
I know what I do
I’m atoning for what I’ve done
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
They say that all is fair in love and war
But my deal with the devil ain’t keeping score
It ain’t you honey, it’s me to blame
In the dead of the night
I’ll be calling your name
There will be no miracles here
Lover, forgive me
I know what I do
I’m atoning for what I’ve done
Can’t be your saint
And to try would be cruel
Oh, cause lover
Oh, I’m not the one
Let mercy set you free
Lover, forgive me
I know what I do
I’m atoning for what I’ve done

Cope
03:18
|

I’m sick of being sick of it
But I want, I want all of it
It’s enticing to be invited
To numb it all
I’m tired of being tired of it
I’m running, running far from it
Drink the poison to numb the noise
And let’s lose control
Running wild
Animals free from the cages
In the dark of the night
Dancing under the lights
We’re just trying to cope, oh oh oh oh
We’re just trying to cope, oh oh oh oh
We’re just trying to cope
Out here in the elements
My sanity is delicate
Disembodied, surrounded by bodies
I’m all alone
Running wild
Animals free from the cages
In the dark of the night
Dancing under the lights
We’re just trying to cope, oh oh oh oh
We’re just trying to cope, oh oh oh oh
We’re just trying to cope
Running wild
Animals free from the cages
Drink the poison to numb the noise
And let’s lose control
In denial, using up people and places
Drink the poison to numb the noise
And let’s lose control
We’re just trying to cope, oh oh oh oh
We’re just trying to cope, oh oh oh oh
We’re just dying to cope, oh oh oh oh
We’re just dying to cope, oh oh oh oh
We’re just dying

Kerosene
02:44
|

I'm afraid of fire
But I like to watch things burn
Like a moth to an arsonist’s flame
They sewed a storm into my body
And it's pushing at the seams
It’s the reason they give hurricanes a name
I got kerosene
It’s burning in my veins
I got cyanide
It dances in my brain
I’m trapped in a cage
And I’m afraid of myself
Feel like I’m gonna explode
I got used to sleeping with the light on
Cause I’d rather feel chaos than nothing at all
Sometimes I feel I might break all my bones
And all the tables and chairs in the room
I got kerosene
It’s burning in my veins
I got cyanide
It dances in my brain
I’m trapped in a cage
And I’m afraid of myself
Feel like I’m gonna explode
Feel like I’m gonna explode
Feel like I’m gonna ex-
Sometimes, oh I just can’t stand the mirror
Her eyes are looking at me [?]
I got used to making nice with nightmares
Cause the shadows were all I could see
I got kerosene
It’s burning in my veins
I got cyanide
It dances in my brain
I’m trapped in a cage
And I’m afraid of myself
Feel like I’m gonna explode
Feel like I’m gonna explode
Feel like I’m gonna ex-
