Oh, the Splendor

Oh the splendor
Of knowing
Your age when you die

You make the most
Of what you have
Your face doesn't turn red when you cry

Immortal beings
With expiration dates
And columbine survivors
That live to face the day

I drown in my thoughts
Of grandiose acts
Your maiden name is still in tact
I call out for help
But my blood turns black
I'm facing the fact
That I'll never turn back

Oh the splendor
Oh the splendor
Oh the splendor, of making your life a living hell
To spite god
For abandoning you
But you're still scared of what they'll do

Oh the splendor
Oh the splendor
You can't breath in the air, but you'll tell the tale
To spite yourself
For never telling the truth
Yet, you wanted to believe the lies you thought were true

It's like
A fight
Between friends that hate you
But you'll never turn a blind eye

It's like
The time
When you buried your heart
Just for a man to fall through the grave and

Die
Die

Walking
Like a skeleton down Main Street
Just for the approval of your peers

Oh the splendor
Oh the splendor
Oh the splendor, of making your life a living hell
To spite god
For abandoning you
But you're still scared of what they'll do

Oh the splendor
You can't breath in the air
Oh, the splendor

Oh the splendor
You can't breath in the air, but you'll tell the tale
To spite yourself
For never telling the truth
Yet, you wanted to believe the lies you thought were true

Oh the splendor
Oh the splendor
You wanted to believe the lies you thought were true

You wanted to believe the lies you thought were true
But you never told yourself how much you hated you
So you waited six long years
To get all this shit out
But it turns out no one can trust your mouth

No one can trust your mouth
