Lyrics

There's a hole in my head, That's been cut and bled. Dry as your bloodshot eyes. And there's smoke in the air, And it's soon to clear, Revealing our demise. There are some who say That it's "A-okay", If it makes you feel all right. It's just way too bad Now you're worse than sad. All locked up there inside. And I don't know how you feel, But I'll make you a deal. If you make it out alive. My shoulders and ears Are yours my dear. I hope it comes as no surprise, That you've been known to say That you're "A-okay." When you're feeling sick inside. I just want you to know, I got no place to go Until the day you die. While you're waiting, Be thankful for your fingers. I'll be fading With the colours of your pictures. "I'm not crying wolf," you whisper, "I'm really dead this time... I'm really dead this time." There's a hope in my head, That's been cut and bled. Dry as your bloodshot eyes. And there's smoke in the air, And it's soon to clear, Revealing our demise. You've been known to say That you're "A-okay." When you're feeling dead inside. I just want you to know, I got no place to go Until the day you die. While you're waiting, Be thankful for your fingers. I'll be fading. With the colours of your pictures. "I'm not crying wolf," you whisper, "I'm really dead this time... I'm really dead this time." They locked you up. They threw away the key. Sutured your mouth shut. Murdered your family. Right before your eyes, What could you do? Right before your eyes, They took it all from you. You're contemplating, You hanging from your ceiling. Can't help hating, You for having that feeling. I'm not joking when I tell you; "I'd miss you all the time." I already miss you all the time.
