Almost Beautiful

Shift the head back & look through the red glass at a world burning black, it's hard but I go on in a room smaller than this song, I know enough to realize it's not who's wrong or right & I've seen enough through your eyes, worlds within worlds magnified.
It's almost beautiful to watch explosions of the heart, it's almost beautiful to watch the skies we knew turning black, from up here I see fine.
Inside your world I feel small compared to everything you said I'd need, lose your hold on dreams the innocent wept today do you taste their pain? I know enough to realize that we all die alone & I've seen enough through my eyes worlds within worlds again.
When will the sky open up & take me home? Back to the stars to my world from up there I see fine.

The Lines You Draw

Each day another day, time's not on my side & today won't replace the wasted days, I'd give you my world to make you see, but I created a world for you in which I don't exist.
The lines you draw on my wrist won't go away & I'll remain here waiting for the fall.
I don't think I can breathe here without you, I'm drowning in your sickened game, swallow your lie swallow my time, waiting for you to fall back down to me.
Come down & meet me on the ground.

Take Away

All the love disintegrated, all the love died in here, I can feel the pain behind her eyes, her cold stare freezes feelings & makes everything dead around her, I can hear the pain behind her words.
And she said, I'm sick of trying to be something I'll never be & I'm tired of being alone I don't think I'll make it on my own, she came here to take love away.
All the love suffocated, all the love is lost in here, I can feel the pain behind her eyes, she shares thoughts for few to listen & burns everything around her, I can hear the pain behind her words.
She came here to take love away today & I can only close my eyes coz what I see deceives & I can't believe that you would take love away from me again.

Save the Pain

The silence kills & I'm on fire, I've got you on my tongue, why can't you hear what I need you to say? I wish I could be anything but,
I save the pain for you & make you feel what I've been through.
Lies for truth & I'm so tired, I want what I can't have, why can't you look at what I need you to see? I wish I could be something but,
Everyone came here to burn love today & everyone gave up on hope today, but I save the pain for you & make you feel like I do.

Stars

Look inside this box of pain & see a glimpse of everything that will never burn your eyes again. Breathe a short life into everything that's dead to you & everything that will never be again.
Coz you said goodbye to everything that made you feel alive.
You fell for the stars but they didn't fall for you & they will not fall.
Look inside this box of lies every time you realize you'll never live outside of your skin. Give all the vampires one last look into the light nothing will ever be as real again.
I used to see stars in your eyes, blacken the sun so the stars can shine.

I hope you hear this coz I need you to know, I miss the way you stare with your eyes into mine, you see a part of me that no one ever knows & I regret the times I had my eyes closed, there must be something I could do to comfort you, I want to hold you as tight as you held on to me, my hands reach out to touch but they don't feel & only you can make this real again.
Now I'm singing this song for you & I hope you are listening, coz I can't breathe without you, I suffocate & choke when you're not here.
Why can't I be everything you need? Why can't I be the one you fall into? And how can you not feel the same, after everything that we've been through?
I look up to the sky & spell your name in the stars, you're beautiful.
I hope you hear this coz I need you to know, I miss you.
