Save Your Silver

I’m sick of all this desperation that we wear around our necks like a useless crucifix,
I’d rather be choking on the storm that you brought in,
I want your hands around my throat,
No, I’m not asking,
I’m just telling you to do it,
The face you pull when degradation is the only touch you crave,
Little Death, down on your knees,
It’s “Master and Servant” playing on the stereo,
It’s you and I,
Pretending that we don’t love every second of the choke,
But I destroy everything I touch,
It all just crumbles away,
It all just fades, ephemeral,
Will somebody save me?
Instead of sitting and watching me drown?
The sunlight is fading,
As the ocean pulls me down,
I’m tired of praying,
There’s no savior in the sky,
And if he does exist,
Then he’s not listening to anything I say,
We walked around in Old World clothes and tried to start a Revolution,
In language born of sweat, and skin,
And markings on bones we left behind the bedroom door,
If I’m the joke here, then you’re the moon,
Say goodbye to the sun,
It reminds me of you,
But I destroy everything I touch,
It all just crumbles away,
It all just fades, ephemeral,
Will somebody save me?
Instead of sitting and watching me drown?
The sunlight is fading,
As the ocean pulls me down,
I’m tired of praying,
There’s no savior in the sky,
And if he does exist,
Then he’s not listening to anything I say,
But I destroy everything I touch,
It all just crumbles away,
It all just fades, ephemeral,
Will somebody save me?
Instead of sitting and watching me drown?
The sunlight is fading,
As the ocean pulls me down,
I’m tired of praying,
There’s no savior in the sky,
And if he does exist,
Then he’s not listening to anything I say

We Make Better Shadows

There must be something in me that you like,
Or you wouldn’t keep coming back,
Is it the way i bleed?
From the way that you drink it straight from my neck,
I’d say I’m right,
So why don’t you collect the drops in a vial?
A little silver something to remember me by?
And maybe I can be the star of your collection,
At least until something better catches your eye,
We made a mess and now there’s no one left to clean it up,
So goodbye,
(jumpjumpjumpIcan’tjumpjumpjumpIcanandIwill)
So why don’t you collect my heart in a bottle?
A little something useless to remember me by?
And maybe I can be the star of your collection,
At least until something better catches your eye,
We made a mess and now theres no one left to clean it up,
So we become more perfectly everything we already are,
And we make better shadows when we stand a little further apart,
But these ropes might make it tricky,
Maybe if they weren’t pulled so tight,
But the pain just isn’t the same,
Until we play with the knife,
The bite won’t be just right,
And we become more perfectly everything we already are,
And we make better shadows when we step a little further out of the dark,
But I can’t, and I won’t, and I can't
(jumpjumpjumpjumpjumpjump)
So we become more perfectly everything we already are,
And we make better shadows when we stand a little further apart,
But these ropes might make it tricky,
Maybe if they weren’t pulled so tight,
But the pain just isn’t the same,
Until we play with the knife,
The bite won’t be just right
