One last breath in Fear City Hold me close 'cause I can't hold on anymore Oh, what a shame, such a pity I can't indulge myself in the feeling anymore
And when I look in the rearview mirror I see burning buildings Oh, it fills me with, oh, such feelings of mercy killings I might just cum at the sound of the dying child in me (Wait, what did he say?) I said my hair's just way too short to make a living (That's definitely not what he said) But my hair's never been a good measure of my happiness, so I re-
I've lived here now for a while But most of the times, I just get lost in the days Hey you, over there, with the beautiful smile "Who, me?" Yeah, the gapped tooth and the years of denial Do you have something else that you'd like to say? "Well, actually, yes"
"When I was a kid, I was obsessed with science And saw so many random acts of v-v-v-v-violence The method of the madness made me think I like it The science of silence, the silence of violence" So what came first, the silence or violence? "Oh honey, you know, it really depends on what you're buying these days"
All of my friends call me a light sleeper Well, I guess that I just don't dream anymore I used to call the shots but sometimes the shots just have to call themselves Like making a U-turn on the belt of the highway I can do it my way now
Like turning around to the burning building I threw it away for the better living One at a time and I stepped right in The carnal knowledge embraced my skin The smoke from the halls sank in My nose, my eyes, my soul, my shit, my grin
I screamed for my life, I screamed I screamed, "Help me" No one can hear you in the walls of sin Concrete floors that I love living in One last breath before I give in Just one last breath before it's Christmas morning
The bells are out and I'm in mourning Wish I had a sign, wish I had a warning That the bells of Heaven would come and erase My nose, my eyes, my sin, my face
On New Years Eve The years behind are just another reason to leave All the beautiful lives we lead When fear is all we need
What a beautiful life What a beautiful life What a beautiful life
