Tragedy

When you visit me
Please leave flowers on my grave
Add me to the list
Another soul you couldn't save

We reap what we sow
That's the only fact I know
You watched them bleed
Now watch them bleed out
Breathe in, do you taste it too?
Sweet regret, in the air, what is there to do?
A broken family dying happily
Look me in the eye and tell me you don't have the nerve

To watch your friends kill themselves
Every day is the same
We bury our pasts in the chemical seas
And we look to our heroes 'cause they have the keys
To set us free
End the misery

But my idols won't drown for free
No, my idols won't drown for thee

Empty prayers
When is enough enough?

We're born to be the paragons of uncertainty
Glass houses, plastic colony
Another tragedy

Carve an effigy from my bones
Tear the veins from my arms
Dig your fingers deep, deep inside my chest
Feel my life writhe in your palms
And forget it all
Yeah, forget it all

When is enough enough?

We're born to be the paragons of uncertainty
Glass houses, plastic colony
Another tragedy
Internal lies serve to bless our lives
Blame the ghosts that we cower behind

When you visit me
Please leave flowers on my grave
Add me to the fucking list
Another soul you couldn't save
