Альбом Hawthorne Heights

Between the future and the past tense
Lies the present in the distance
So you think we're never coming back
Scoring points for passion and persistence
Between the lines and the highway
Lies a danger in the safety
You never thought this was gonna last
I always knew you'd never take it back

I always knew (I always knew)

[Chorus: x2]
I know it seems like we're never coming back
I know it feels like we're never coming back
You tried your best and you knew it wouldn't last
They were the words that she placed on her casket

Between the sadness and the smile
Lies the flicker of the fire
You always said this never hurt you
I always said you were a liar
With the all the towers and the wires
There still lies a little silence
Two hearts and one connection
One voice lets emotion out

I always knew (I always knew)

[Chorus x2]

Instead of flowers like words they never mattered
Close it up forget about the sadness
(close it up forget about the sadness)
He always said she should have tried crying
Blaming him, as she was lying down

I'm coming back (I'm coming back)
I'm coming back (I'm coming back)

We're falling faster
This is the last year
Just a few more hours
Until we are all alone
This never happens
Changing with fashion
Just a few more hours
Until we are all alone

I wish i could have known you better
I should blame it on the weather
This was over from the start
Does it even matter?
Our situations getting worse

Sleep in, (sleep in)
Sleep well, (sleep well)
With this life, (this life)
We're set to fail

I just wanted you to know
I think about you every night
When i fall asleep
You are in my dreams
And just like in a movie
The one you want to see
With a happy ending

This dead letter written on black paper
It never found your eyes
Instead of love (instead of love)
She only saw dollar signs

Sleep in, (sleep in)
Sleep well, (sleep well)
With this life, (this life)
We're set to fail

I just wanted you to know
I think about you every night
When i fall asleep
You are in my dreams
And just like in a movie
The one you want to see
With a happy ending

With this life, (this life)
We are set to fail

I just wanted you to know
I think about you every night
When i fall asleep
I just wanted you to know
I think about you every night
When i fall asleep
You are in my dreams
And just like in a movie
The one you want to see

I hope this song can tell you how I feel tonight
You are my first dissection spilling my insides
Lets write our names with the blood that's in our cheeks
So it won't wash away if I don't come home for weeks

If I don't come home...

I never said (never said)
This would be easy
I let her go when she said she was leaving
So whisper softly
And don't forget
To tell me how you feel in five words or less

I knew I should have never offered you the world
The nights are full of faces you're the only girl
Turn my world from disaster
Make my heart stop beating faster
Ask the question, here's the answer
I need you now and I can't stand this

I never said (never said)
This would be easy
I let her go when she said she was leaving
So whisper softly
And don't forget
To tell me how you feel in five words or less

Just tell me how you feel...
I need your voice tonight...
Just tell me how you feel...
Whoa, whoa...

So whisper softly and don't forget
To tell me how you feel in five words or less

I never said (never said)
This would be easy
I let her go when she said she was leaving
So whisper softly
And don't forget

I miss you most on winter mornings
As we drift we slip through evenings, whoa-oh
We drive into the cold and dark with fingers crossed
I follow your lies to avoid from getting lost

And all I had was the memory of what was
So let's pretend it never mattered to us
I hope this message finds you well
I never thought I'd live to tell

Just to survive we do what we can
We read the maps and signs, and we make the plans
By our design I write it down to get me by
The worst time in my life

And all I had was the memory of what was
So lets pretend it never mattered to us
I hope this message finds you well
I never thought I'd live to tell
What's a dream and what is real, the way I really feel

I hope this message finds you well
I never thought I'd live to tell
What's a dream and what is real?
So let's pretend this is the ending (ending...ending)
To the message i've been sending (sending...sending)

And all I had was the memory of what was
So lets pretend it never mattered to us
I hope this message finds you well
I never thought I'd live to tell

These colors will not change, you change the way I see them
These words will fade when you explain why you hate them
We are the same, oh

She keeps repeating "I bet she needed"
She says she's right here, she seems so distant
Saying goodbye this time, the same old story
Seeing you cry, makes me feel like saying sorry

Just a few last hours we gotta make this count
We're counting backwards

(Just a few last hours, we gotta make this count)

We're falling forward

She keeps repeating "I bet she needed"
She says she's right here, she seems so distant
Saying goodbye this time, the same old story
Seeing you cry, makes me feel like saying sorry
Saying goodbye this time, the same old story
Seeing you cry, makes me feel like saying sorry

Saying sorry, we've fallen apart
Wish we knew this from the start
Saying goodbye's the hardest part
Wish we knew this from the start

Saying goodbye this time, the same old story
Seeing you cry, makes me feel like saying sorry
Saying goodbye this time, the same old story
Seeing you cry, makes me feel like saying sorry
Saying goodbye this time... this time...

The medicine is blending in mix in the blood with oxygen
I need this right now to figure myself out
Cutting through the ribbons of self doubt
I never thought you'd see me this way
You are the worst and I am to blame

Close the door, lock it tight
They don't know you're safe tonight
Turn on a song that means the most
Believe I'm there and hold me close

She is in my bloodstream tonight she's draining me
The room is filled with red's and blue's
I follow where she leads into the darkness
Drying out my veins, she's a ghost, a silhouette
Calling out my name

These lies we fall into, the pieces I left you
Of your favorite picture torn in two
I never thought we'd end up this way
You are the worst, I am to blame

Close the door, lock it tight
They don't know you're safe tonight
Turn on a song that means the most
Believe I'm there and hold me close

She is in my bloodstream tonight she's draining me
The room is filled with red's and blue's
I follow where she leads into the darkness
Drying out my veins, she's a ghost, a silhouette
Calling out my name

So close the door and lock it tight
Then I will know you're safe tonight
Turn on the song that means the most
Believe I'm there and hold me close

Close the door, lock it tight
They don't know you're safe tonight
Turn on a song that means the most
Believe I'm there and hold me close

She is in my bloodstream tonight she's draining me
The room is filled with red's and blue's
I follow where she leads into the darkness
Drying out my veins, she's a ghost, a silhouette

I never meant to hurt you
Sometimes these thoughts have a way making sense
Secrets that we keep turn into accidents
If you burn away the bonds with the fires of selfishness
The positive the negative have a way of making ends

End this now, we've gone too far
Let's take back words that turned to scars
If I could find a way to turn back time
Had to let you know I'm on your side

Took the easy way out I showed my self doubt
The only way to ease the pain is to drink until I drown
I'll say it out loud my voice is the only sound
So listen up, I'll spell it out
I need your help, I need it now

End this now, we've gone too far
Let's take back words that turned to scars
If I could find a way to turn back time
Had to let you know I'm on your side

Am I now everything that you wanted me to be
Tried my best took a shot in the dark and I lost

End this now
We've gone too far
Let's take back words that turned to scars
If I could find a way to turn back time

Breathing in the same sequence
While trying to make sense of your situation
That we got ourselves in, two more weeks of one way conversation
She says she's losing interest
I swear that we are best friends till the end

This could be the plans for revenge
But these words lead to dead ends

So close your eyes and kiss me like it's our last time
These lips need medication, these days are dripping poison, girl
Days to turn to nights I wish on the stars in the sky
Be careful of the brightest, beauty is on the inside

I wish I could but I know I can't take it back,
It's serious just like heart-attacks
My personality, avoid the scenery,
I hate playing games with the industry
That fuels these dreams, and turns them down
When my heart breaks, it makes a sound

This could be the plans for revenge
But these words lead to dead ends

So close your eyes and kiss me like it's our last time
These lips need medication, these days are dripping poison, girl
Days to turn to nights I wish on the stars in the sky
Be careful of the brightest, beauty is on the inside

So close your eyes and kiss me like it's our last time
These lips need medication, these days are dripping poison, girl
Days to turn to nights I wish on the stars in the sky
Beauty's on the inside

Sleep, sleep little darling
I swear I'm not trying to wear you out
I'm not trying to drag you down

When you fall asleep tonight
They'll be waiting for you
When you try to close your eyes
They'll try not to hate you
Sleep, sleep the night away
Act like nothings wrong
You know we're going down

[Chorus]
You are such a light sleeper
Count to ten and you're already up
We fall, we're in deeper
The nights gone as we open up our eyes

Nine, Ten, (Nine, Ten)
We'll never sleep again
We try (We Try)
We know we'll never win
At least (At Least)
We know we'll make it out alive
At least
We know we'll make it out this time

[Chorus]
You are such a light sleeper
Count to ten and you're already up
We fall, we're in deeper
The nights gone as we open up our eyes

We fall (WE FALL)
We know that we can make it now
We fall (WE FALL)
We know that we can break this down
(we can break this down)

We hear what you're saying (saying)
Not enough so we keep playing
This game is what you make it (you make it)
One chance so why not take it

[Chorus]
You are such a light sleeper
Count to ten and you're already up
We fall, we're in deeper
The nights gone as we open up our eyes

Such a light sleeper
Light sleeper
Such a light sleeper

Sleep, sleep little darling
I swear I'm not trying to wear you out

Don't let us concentrate on all those things you love to hate
It makes this all worth the wait
But causes us to separate

And i don't know how i should feel (i should feel)
These lies make it all seem real

Can you see this or wear it on your wrist
It's everything you wanted
The mark you always missed
Can you feel this cross me off your list
She's everything you wanted
The mark you always missed

With dry eyes, steady hands
I tried so hard to understand
Why you left us all alone
Three broken hearts with a broken home

And i don't know how i should feel (i should feel)
These lies make it all seem real

Can you see this or wear it on your wrist
It's everything you wanted
The mark you always missed
Can you feel this cross me off your list
She's everything you wanted
The mark you always missed

(cross me off - cross me off your list)

Can you see this or wear it on your wrist
It's everything you wanted
The mark you always missed
Can you see this or wear it on your wrist
It's everything you wanted
The mark you always missed
Can you feel this cross me off your list
She's everything you wanted

I guess I could've sent a letter from the road
With words that always meant more then updates on the phone
The signals fading fast and the ink is running out
The words repeating as I'm better from my mouth

Please hold me tightly, I don't care if I can breathe tonight
Forget these lungs their jealousy your burning up but I can't leave this all
behind
Forget these lungs their jealousy your burning up but I can't leave this all
behind

Behind your back talking like knives
And I can hardly breathe
Sharpen your tongue the rest of your life
And I can not believe anything that you say

Please hold me tightly, I don't care if I can breathe tonight
Forget these lungs their jealousy your burning up but I can't leave this all
behind
Forget these lungs their jealousy your burning up but I can't leave this all
behind

So your the fire and I'm the water
I am the balance and you are the color
I wont forget you when we're not together
This is the ending, it's my surrender

(So your the fire and I'm the water
I am the balance and you are the color
I wont forget you when we're not together
This is the ending, it's my surrender)

Please hold me tightly, I don't care if I can breathe tonight
Forget these lungs their jealousy your burning up but I can't leave this all
behind

Lets try to remember these days back in December
Our lives were very different
I was lonely when we first met
A small upstairs apartment
Driving through the darkness to get back home
Before they knew you were even gone

You don't have to speak because I can hear your heartbeat
Fluttering like butterflies searching for a drink
You don't have to cover up how you feel when your in love
I'll always know I'm not enough to even make you think

Please, slow down, girl
We're moving way too fast for their world
We've gotta make this last

I miss you so much, a self-inflicted coma
The days drag on I never thought of running with their feet
And when i feel the stress, I'm lonely and depressed
I picture you in the dress you wore four weeks ago

You don't have to speak because I can hear your heartbeat
Fluttering like butterflies searching for a drink
You don't have to cover up how you feel when you're in love
I'll always know I'm not enough to even make you think

Please, slow down, girl
We're moving way too fast for their world
We've gotta make this last
I know it hurts to feel so all alone
I'm by myself, more then you could know

If only they were all alone...
They were all alone...

Please, slow down, girl
We're moving way too fast for their world
We've gotta make this last
Slow down girl
We're moving way too fast for their world
We've gotta make this last

I know it hurts to feel so all alone
I'm by myself, more then you could know

If only they were all alone...
They were all alone...
They were all alone...
