Sincerely dishonest and authentic in fraud, You are everything wanted by those who lack, heart. You wear love like the latest fashion, And sure enough, It's all worn out. I'm reciting words, Hoping that they become, Something more. There is no hope left here, Just heart and hard-earned years, And in this world that won't stop, I'll stop at nothing at all. You got your hopes up, Same as your nose but, It'll never get me down, You can reach for the stars, When we open ours arms Relationships sink in waves of ambition, For what I've given, But not forgotten friends, Fighting through needles and smoke, Chasing dreams while they fight to float, I'm your fucking nightmare. No future, No home to go to, No loyalty to anyone or anything but, Those I love and what I lost, I'm bringing something better back home. I'm reciting words, Hoping that they become, Something more. There is no hope left here, Just heart and hard-earned years, And in this world that won't stop, I'll stop at nothing at all. You got your hopes up, Same as your nose but, It'll never get me down, You can reach for the stars, When we open ours arms We shatter the sky. We are X2 All that we want, We are X2 This world won't stop, I'll stop at nothing at all X4 We are X2 All that we want, We are X2 There is no hope left here, Just heart and hard-earned years, And in this world that won't stop, I'll stop at nothing at all. You got your hopes up, Same as your nose but, It'll never get me down, You can reach for the stars, When we open ours arms We shatter the sky. X2

Bible Marks 05:50
God save me, God save me now, X3 God save me. Our holy books, Speak the truth, But I’ve got a secret, They never shared with you. My mind’s a fault line, And what I love the most, Lies on either side. Give me heaven or hell. A boy ignites, Burned black by fumes from his… Oh Kerosene veins, If you only knew. That coal mine heart could be, A diamond Soul. Nothing lasts forever, nothing’s permanent, The waves will crash and swell again. Our holy books, Speak the truth, But I’ve got a secret, They never shared with you. My mind’s a fault line, And what I love the most, Lies on either side. Give me heaven or hell. The spark isn’t self-control, It’s knowing what you want: Have heart (Have heart) Have heart (Have heart) Heart beating kerosene, While lungs push smoke, And this song’s the spark. (This song’s the spark) This song’s the spark (This song’s the spark) Nothing last forever, nothing’s permanent, The waves will crash, and swell again. Our holy books, Speak the truth, But I’ve got a secret, They never shared with you. My mind’s a fault line, And what I love the most, Lies on either side. Strife for purpose, Reminds how much life is worth, Keep moving on. Hells heat feeds heaven’s light, And our life’s, The fault line Setting free the flame. Now pray. If god’s alive he’s a fucking disease, I’m the needle, Filled with vaccine. Don’t preach and pacify, By telling me, The time that I was alone, He was carrying me. Even if it’s true; The footprints show: The reason I’m so weak, Is because of you. Our holy books, Speak the truth, But I’ve got a secret, They never shared with you. Our life’s a fault line, And what I love the most, Lies on either side. Give me heaven, Or give me, Hell.

My Heroine 04:15
I'm sick with this new addiction, Burning out my eyes, It's gnawing through my mind. Much worse than nicotine I can't, Seem to fall asleep at night. Pre-Chorus: You can call me vain, I'll call you my needle. You can call me vain, I'll call you my needle. C: Hey baby can i call you my heroine? You saved me from this life. And you know I'll never let go of you, Until i overdose and die. You say... Beauty lies beneath my skin. But I think... It's reflected in your eyes. I'll never win. Prechorus & Chorus Cold streets; Coated in ash, Emptiness... Is all I have. It's what makes me feel alive; No more dependency in my life. Pre-Chorus & Chorus

Summer sun and broken glass, Cars doors on open roads. Make a toast, To empty bottles, We’ll need the space for memories. The sun-set’s up too late, To save me from the day he… Leaves, fall evoking waves. Fall leaves decay. Decay. Why can’t you wake up? When all I want is sleep, Why couldn’t it be… Forests burned so bright, Without a trace of smoke, but now it shows as… Breath between the headstones. Cold ash coats a sidewalk sea son I sleep on, See son I sleep on in oceans. In oceans X2 Why can’t you wake up? When all I want is sleep, Why couldn’t it be me? Seasons passed, Took the current to the harbor. Watched waves, Of sirens and plane flights. Listened to, The sights of departure. Echoing waves, Broke the calm, So I searched for the crest. ...and I saw. “Grieve not, nor speak of me with tears… But laugh. And talk of me, As though I were beside you. I loved you so… T’was heaven, Here with you.” And I saw- The current's chaos, Create the calm. I carry heaven in my heart, Through hell. X4
