Become
Your lips are barely moving, but you're dressed to kill
I made secret's my best friend, so my guts would never spill
But who would ever have us for the crooked mess that we've become
But who would ever have us for the crooked mess that we've become
I wish this didn't to feel so wrong
I hate myself but on second thought
My certainty grows stronger with every sip
I'm giving in!
Ever since this idea, I've been steadily weighing my options
Your crawling towards me i still want this
Formless you are, gutless i've become
You wanted this, oh common you're barley dressed
Well sweetie what'd you expect?
Willing you are, hopeless I've become
It seems that we're racing, but I'm standing still
Give up your addiction, though i never will
But who would ever have us for the bitter secret we've become?
But who would ever have us for the bitter secret we've become?
I wish this didn't feel so right
You hate yourself but not tonight
Your certainty grows with every sip you take
I'm giving up!
Ever since this idea, I've been steadily weighing my options
Your crawling towards me i still want this
Formless you are, gutless i've become
You wanted this, oh common you're barley dressed
Well sweetie what'd you expect?
Willing you are, regretful I've become
What's wrong, things aren't quite going as planned?
Hows falling for the boy that you never had?
I never said i would make this easy, its far too cliche
What's wrong, things aren't quite going your way?
You could have left but you chose to stay
Decisions that we make in the moment, don't you dare regret me
(I'm giving up! look what I've become!)
Mirrors do me no justice, they laugh in my face
(I'm giving in! there's no use in trying you win!)
You do me no justice, so laugh in my face
Do you ever thing about, think about the things we did
Do you ever thing about, think about the things we did
Do you ever thing about, think about the things we did
Do you ever thing about, think about me...
Cigarettes
Don't you dare hold back, are time is short
Lets lose our dignity, like weekend whores
And you're sleeping safely, I'm lying wide awake
I'm beginning to believe, with intentions aside
Regardless who I share, this bed with at night
that you're the one that keeps me up
The smell of cigarettes and her hair on my pillow
Doesn't change the fact I'm hollow and alone
And i can't blame you, but I'm trying
I'll close my eyes and forget what we've been through
(I never needed these pills before you!)
Inconsistent heartbeats lead to late nights baby
So make that pretty sound, that i love to hear
Whisper that you regret, me inside of my ear
And you're sleeping safely, bloodshot eyes I'm wide awake
I get the hint, you're long over this affair
But how could you just leave me stranded here
where we shared our last kiss sweetheart
The smell of cigarettes and her hair on my pillow
Doesn't change the fact I'm hollow and alone
And i can't blame you, but I'm trying
I'll close my eyes and forget what we've been through
(I never needed these pills before you!)
Inconsistent heartbeats lead to late nights baby
I know you're busy, keeping his hands full
pulling your strings, that needed to be pulled
(Its so fucked up you always get your way!)
Does he take action, on the things you say?
Call you out on, all of your mistakes?
(I bet you feel so perfect in his arms!)
Well sweetie darling thats not how life works
Well sweetie darling thats not how life
Your just trading bed sheets baby
The smell of cigarettes and her hair on my pillow
Doesn't change the fact I'm hollow and alone
And i can't blame you, but I'm trying
I'll close my eyes and forget what we've been through
(I never needed these pills before you!)
Inconsistent heartbeats lead to late nights baby
Half smoked cigarettes and the stench of our affair
Doesn't change the fact that i can still smell your hair
Tell me baby, hows sleeping well at night?
I'll close my eyes and forget what we've been through
(I never needed these pills before you!)
Inconsistent heartbeats lead to late nights baby
Tragedy for a dearly loved girl
My conscience tends to grow careless, when I'm busy hating you
You really don't need to save face for this, we both already know that you have two
Like you need anymore attention
(Your name bold faced across the page)
Like you need anymore attention
(Only Sunday's best for them to read)
Maybe if the pain wasn't so constant
How could I expect you to be honest?
I shouldn't have carved these words in my chest
I'm walking evidence
Of why you didn't come home baby
That and my name etched in your arm
I wanted you to feel the pain four letters can bring
It shouldn't have to hurt to say your name
All of your promises you made, were as empty as this captain
Now that I'm running out of slurred words, i see what really happened
Your innocent as the day is long
(I'm still lying through my teeth for you)
Your innocent as the day is long
Smoking barrels can't lie half as well i can
A guilty conscience is all that I'm left with
I shouldn't have carved these words in my chest
I'm walking evidence
Of why you didn't come home baby
That and my name etched in your arm
I wanted you to feel the pain four letters can bring
It shouldn't have to hurt to say your name
Nothing says i hate you like the words across my chest
Some could have said i loved you but i think this is for the best
I won't end my scars with cliche for them to read
I just want them to know that I'm the last thing you'll ever see
I shouldn't have carved these words in my chest
I'm walking evidence
Of why you didn't come home baby
That and my name etched in your arm
I wanted you to feel the pain four letters can bring
It shouldn't have to hurt to say your name
Your name
Your name
Your name
It shouldn't have to hurt
