What to do, nothing new
We tried each other, let's try another
When you came through the door,
I felt everything and nothing that I had before

Tell yourself it's not yourself
But no one else can make me know there's no one else
When you came through the door,
I was sure you never even felt the floor

I know it is wrong, but we just don't belong
In their eyes, in the sun
No we just don't belong

Change your mind and stop the time
That comes between us, that bends beneath us
If you're mine, I don't mind
We tried another, let's try each other

I know it is wrong, but we just don't belong
In their eyes, in the sun
No we just don't belong

In hospitals, in shopping malls
With heavy heads and locker walls
An empty street at 3 a.m.,
You told me you're not one of them

We took a vow to never sleep
While there was still air left to breathe
And you're the same, so slightly strange
Among the fakes you knew the pains.

. . .


Justine, you're dying just to hear the sound
And dreaming of another town
Cuz nothing here is going on

Write now, cuz all your real friends are words
You've never ever been so sure
That what you've got can't be cured

And now, nothing's gonna turn us down
You can't sit there and look scared
When everything's happening now

Come on, nothing's gonna turn us down
So don't stand there like you don't care
Cuz heaven's gonna happen now

Look down, don't see yourself between the lines
Just tell them that you're doing fine
Cuz I can tell you're doing time

In a cell that looks just like a family home
Where solitaire is all you know
And there's nowhere that you could go

Break down, or maybe just break the skin
You're writing down everything
Cuz words are still a faithful friend

So now, tell me what you're gonna do
Cuz I can see the fire in you,
And I can see it's burning through

. . .


Take a look around when you're going down
Cuz you'll never feel so high
As when you hid in her arms in the sky and the world slept

And there's no use to say just how much it kills
When it still kills all the same
Every thought of her name like a hand to an open flame

Chorus
She was the heart in your heartbreak
She was the miss in your mistake
And no matter what you take,
you're never going to forget
She was the tear in a rainstorm
She was the promise that you would've sworn
And no matter what you say,
it's never gonna come back

An ambulance goes by, and you wonder why
It never stops when you want it to
It never stops when you need it to take you away

And your friends don't understand that the world could end,
And it would feel no worse than this
Every thought of the look in her eye
Like a cold California sky

Chorus
She was the heart in your heartbreak
She was the miss in your mistake
And no matter what you take,
you're never going to forget
She was the tear in a rainstorm
She was the promise that you would've sworn
And no matter what you say,
it's never gonna come back

guitar solo

And no matter what you pray,
It's never gonna take the pain away
And even if she'd stay you know it's wrong
And no matter what you pray,
it's never gonna take the pain away
Cuz even if she'd stay, you know she's gone

. . .


Come on now stop staring at the ceiling
Your last daydream is slowly unreeling
Won't you come out tonight, like I know you want to
Cuz the city's alive and even though it haunts you, I want you

To tell me again what the body's for
Cuz I can't feel it anymore
I want to hurt like it did before
We shouldn't sin

Tell me again what the body's for
Cuz I can't feel it anymore
I lost mine and I need yours,
It's only skin, we could swim

You try so hard to keep it together,
And you look so hard in fishnets and leather
But I know who you are, you are just a lost saint
And if we go too far, there'll be heaven to pay
And what a price…

I can't feel it anymore, tell me again what the body's for
I can't feel it anymore, tell me again it's only skin, we should swim

. . .


The things we used to do when the nightmare wouldn't end
turn up the sight of you and feel it all again

The posters on the wall that were our only friends
Their lives we never knew, but oh how we imagined

Let's go out tonight and do something that's wrong
cuz I don't feel alright when disaster's gone

Anne with an E you're everything to me

Take your sweater off and wear your spikes again
cuz you can't get off on that medicine

Let's go out tonight and do something that's wrong
cuz I don't feel alright when disaster's gone

We'll call in sick tomorrow and shake 'til we can't speak
and know it won't get better, but still you wanna see
our bodies fall apart and lose the will to breathe
and fall asleep forever in perfect harmony

Anne with an E, you're everything to me

. . .


You can drive around all night
with the radio on high
and wonder what it?s like to be liked
and never feel out of time

You're not the only one, you're just my only one

Even in dreams I could not betray you

If I could shut my eyes
and disconnect my mind
there's just one thought I'd think
I'd think it all the time

cuz there's nobody like you
Is that why they don't like you?
You are cold and dead to their jokes

Yeah, there's nobody like you
Is that why they don't like you
like I do?

And I do

. . .


What did you take? cuz that?s what I?ll take,
and I can?t take it without you

When I feel dead, I lay in my bed
I don?t want to lay here without you

Now you can?t stand, well I understand
You can take my heavy hand

cuz I can?t resist the touch of your lips
I feel the bliss on my ?ngertips–oh shit

And I?m scared that this could end
face down in the park again
wondering where I left my mind last night
but that?s alright, you?re my terrible friend
Everyone is pretty and fun, everyone is lovely and young
Everyone is gentle and gone, but everyone?s just everyone

And you?re the one who?s breaking me
And you?re the one who just won?t leave
Still I don?t want it to end, you are my terrible friend

. . .


Held my breath, thought of death
and things I'd like to do 'til then
See my friends, lose my head
wake up with you in my bed

When every feeling feels the same
and every creeper knows your name
he makes a pass on a passing train no shame

I know everything is so-so
I know you could just fly solo
But come on, we are going to go go
around the world, cuz you?re the girl of 1,000 dreams

Sadness hurts, but that's ok
Get back up and cry again
Fall asleep in outer space,
but wake up at your parents' place

So tell me how I'm supposed to live
when every night you die for it
So if you give, just say you won't give in

. . .


Queen Anne, you're lying in the wasteland
You wanted just a taste, then
you couldn't quite replace him

Lost son, we never knew you all wrong
You never got to die young,
still swaying in the cold sun

You're too tough to say that it's all too much,
so say it's enough

His hands are beautiful but so damned
He's talking like a new man,
but you've been here before, Anne

This night could hardly be the last night
He's looking for a good fight,
you're looking for a good bye

. . .


When everyone was doing drugs,
we were just doing love
A stranger said you're strange like me

Ana, our dreams are coming true

Don't tell me that a day will come
when we dress like everyone
cuz I can tell you're strange like me

Don't say the hour's growing late
Don't say we should be going straight
cuz I can tell you're strange like me

And dreams can still come true,
and it's coming true for you

. . .
