Sweet, little innocent friend
I won't be with you in the end
You slayed the monster that's in the glass
But then you collapsed, exhausted, running from your past
So buy a halo of flies
and pick out your favorite way to die
Your choices were love & suicide
Now all you've got is yourself and a knife
So find a beautiful song
and cut yourself as you sing along
Stare and scream into the sun
and pray to God that there isn't one
So break that tingling in your chest
and tie off the tears from her breast
The only loose ends left undone
Are the noose and a loaded gun.

Apathy, apathy
Let your hair down and guide me
Remedy, remedy
Give me more than a memory
You killed the hope inside my tragic heart
Please, let me go again
It felt so right but died so wrong
Apathy, apathy
Lay your head down and pray for me
Calamity, calamity
Won't you kill me already?
You choked the life out of my soul
Oh, won't you go away
I will not let you take control
Apathy, apathy
Let your hair down and guide me
Remedy, remedy
Nothing more than a memory
Apathy, apathy
Won't you lie down and die with me?
Family, family
Nothing but a distant dream
Happiness is gone from my heart
Oh, let me die again
It felt so right but...
... now it's gone
Now it's gone
Now I'm gone
Now I'm gone

She
The ghost speaks to me
There I lay
Forever and always
Why
Our spirits are intertwined
May
I find another use someday.

Reach for the stars and find yourself again
Soon you'll be alone in this hateful world, my friend
I'm not asking you to forgive me, but please just don't forget me
Cause I couldn't stand a world where all I mean is nothing
To you
What will you do?
My carpet's stained and painted
With the tears from my face and the
Blood that's taste still runs sweet in between my teeth
What do you see?
My stargrasper
Sweet little stargrasper
Stargrasper
Pretty little stargrasper
I'm laying here, smiling
But deep down I'm denying
The field all around me is burning down
The flames lead to you
What did you do?
My stargrasper
Sweet little stargrasper
Stargrasper
Pretty little stargrasper
Reach for the stars and find yourself again
You were too good for me to call you
a friend

Drop

I see your breath in the night sky
I see the tears fall from your eyes
As the winter waters rise
You fall down beneath.
No one there had heard you cry
As you hit the riverside
With no goodbye, I watched you die
And soon, I will too.

Pretty Little Suicide
04:26
|

|
Stare into my empty eyes
See you start to break away
My skin is torn with knives of gold
As I sit back and watch you smile
I enter in the core of you
Your scars play across my burns
Sliding in and out the lies
I force down your tongue with mine
The walls all sing internally
The strangest sound of fire
Don't let my ghosts cross your mind
You'll be with them in time
And I crawl into your veins
The walls, they scream with rage
Your last goodbye, a pretty little
Suicide
You came to me, tears in your eyes
And said you tried to die tonight
The walls, they sing the sounds of death
I breathe in my last breath
And when I'm gone, the ghosts will sing
So joyfully.

I had my chance.
03:52

|
I lay bruised and bloody from your teeth
Burning body sleeping smiling at your feet
We kill each other on the frozen concrete
And I still feel your touch inside of me...
Lie to me
Cut me down
Torture me
Break me through you
Murder me
With those lips of yours
And I fucking
Deserve it all.
(Unintelligible depressed mumblings)
