This is the end, my darling We made it here together All the choices that we made We built our bed And in that bed we’ll stay Together Together I’m standing outside of a liquor store Wondering whether or not I should go in Your lights are on I know you’re home But you’re not alone Are you, darling? I’m six fingers in And I can’t see The red in my eyes is blinding me I thought I could handle this jealousy But next thing I knew she was six feet deep What have I done? I buried your lover in a shallow grave I buried my problems And with them she went In a shallow grave We stay together We stay together We stay together This is the end, my darling We made it here together All the choices that we made We will stay We will stay Together in a shallow grave In a shallow grave We stay together We stay together We stay together In a shallow grave

Dream Demons 04:20
I’ve heard it said The nights are darkest before the dawn Dream demons dance Behind closed eyes White shining knights are in short supply My future is hazier My days grow lazier As I age But that’s ok I was never the life of the party anyway Embrace the gray Between black and white Lie happy days But don’t take my advice ‘Cause I’m spitting lies The ones I tell myself to keep from crying   My future is hazier My days grow lazier As I age But that’s ok I was never the life of the party anyway Yeah, that’s ok I’ll let it all slip away Like I do my dream demons every day As I wake Don’t be afraid Don’t be afraid I’m here

Vices 03:43
You see me sitting at the bar alone Assume I’m open to be taken home Unzip my dress with both your eyes Slip your left hand up my right thigh You seem so charming what could go wrong? I’m feeling vulnerable, so I take you on We pay the tab and go to your car I think we’re flying, we’re driving so far Standing there smiling Feet on the ground You hold me under And you watch me drown Feeling sick power As you bleed me dry You feel elation As life leaves my eyes You view my body prostrate on the ground Human marionette, made with rope you used to tie me down You are a killer Wouldn’t mom be proud? My life is over So what are you going to do to me now? Standing there smiling Feet on the ground You hold me under And you watch me drown Feeling sick power As you bleed me dry You feel elation As life leaves my eyes You are a killer Now don’t you see You can’t play the victim Or blame this on me You are a murderer Fulfilled your dream You made me nothing So stop haunting me Or I’ll haunt your dreams I’ll haunt your dreams

I wasn't blind but you made it hard to see you're a toxic imposition yeah, your love is killing me You take what you want and you never give back Your heart was wrong You wronged me Now I'll wrong you back Whoa Darling, hold on We're waiting to begin What we thought was heaven Turned out to be a sin Wake up now Lord knows it's just a dream No, I wasn't lying When I said your love is killing me Whoa Loveless nights We watched it fall apart Get yourself together You'll never break my heart Now I see The veil is finally gone You're nothing but trouble So I'll be moving on Whoa I wasn't blind But you made it hard you're a toxic imposition yeah, your love is killing me whoa

There's 52 ways to murder anyone One or two are the same, And they both work as well I'm coming clean for Amy, Julie doesn't scream as well And the cops won't listen all night And so maybe, maybe I'll be over Just as soon as I fill them all in And I can remember when I saw her last We were running all around and having a blast But the back seat of the drive-in Is so lonely without you I know when you're home I was thinking about you, There was was something I forgot to say I was crying on a Saturday night I was out cruising without you, They were playing our song Crying on Saturday night As the moon becomes the night time You go viciously, quietly away I'm sitting in the bedroom, Where we used to sit and smoke cigarettes Now I'm watching, watching you die I can remember when I saw her last We were running all around and having a blast But the back seat of the drive-in Is so lonely without you I know when you're home I was thinking about you, There was was something I forgot to say I was crying on a Saturday night I was out cruising without you, They were playing our song Crying on Saturday night
