It's just a taste
taste of your blood
How would I know you weren't the one
I should ever love
It took some time
but it adds on to the ride
It's everyday, in every corner
of my mind it sits alone
in it's horror
So I cut my ties
and fell down through the sky
What does it take to see your mistakes
the way you should
I'd take the blame
if I played these games
but I never would
And I'll remember that
when you're coming back saying
"when'd you fall behind?"
cuz I walked the path
you were running too fast
and I let you go this time

When I heard the scream
I was on my way
back home and it was late
And the people ran
all through the streets
Well, everyone but me
As I walked away
from a scene I knew
could come to us so soon
Had to laugh it off
cuz it's all the same
Just charge it to the game
I've been waiting
Oh so patient
I nearly lost my mind
more than a few times
Big explosions of
impulsive emotions
Then you ripped out my tongue
wiped the prints off of your gun
Spin it around, around
When all the smoke has cleared
I'm the only one found
When I heard the scream
I was on my way
back home and it was late

Knives out
this game we play
I won't let you slip and get away
Screams loud
and dragging chains
I won't bite my lip under the rain
I lost my way
Falling through space
I just wanna get you on your own
I don't wanna leave you all alone
We can let 'em talk
try to shake our bones
Guns are feeling hot
but the barrels cold
Isn't it what you were hoping for?
Giving up a little and you're wanting more
Can't I keep the ground from shaking up?
Thought that I was dreaming but I'm waking up
Lights out
the silence breaks
I won't let my lips enjoy the taste
Spins round
the haunting blame
I'll just lose my grip and fade away
Can't we just hang high
floating in our own sky?
Can't we keep closed eyes
glowing with the moonlight ?
I just wanna get you on your own

The Forest

I am the sun as it burns out the day
I'll open your eyes, I'll take you away
Through the forest on the mountains
where the spirits go to play
I will shine on through your body
I'll release your building rage
All the pieces I could get
put together in a mess
Yea, thanks for leaving
What was I believing?
What you left, you left behind
Even tho it's on your mind
Can't keep repeating
Can't keep believing
I am the night as it turns out the day
I'll open your mind, I'll show you the way
Through the forest on the mountains
where the spirits go to play
I will shine over your body
Lay beneath my silver haze
All the reasons in your head
Well, they never did connect
You're so deceiving
What was i believing?
And ya bet you see the light
even tho it's dark as night
What's that you're seeing
hanging from the ceiling?
I never had the chance
to step into your dance
I never had your hands
to get you in a trance
All the pieces I could get
put together in a mess
Yea, thanks for leaving
What was I believing?
What you left, you left behind
even tho it's on your mind
Can't keep repeating
Can't keep believing
