Tragedy Of Empty Streets
Now buildings are starting to fall
Bricks beginning to break
Your steps are leaving cracks in the sidewalks
Leaving trails of empty streets
And I'm going blind from staring at your eyes
Because they release the fire of a thousand suns
But I've grown so numb I can barely shed a tear
Even if you cut the strings that hold my head up
You're pulling teeth, ripping flesh
So you can lick the blood from your fingers
So break these bones, taste my skin
Let my death sing the end of it
So you can do no more damage
So you collect no more trophies
Let me be the last
Let no one feel how I feel
And this tragedy began with me
So let it end with me
From your hell I've become this numb
And I wish this pain on no one
Behind your smile, beneath your lungs
I hope your darkness comes
This tragedy began with me
So let it end with me
And I tried to be what you wanted me to be
And I'm sorry that I can never be perfect for you
But every time I look in the the mirror
I see your eyes staring back at me
And I don't want it anymore
Now buildings are starting to fall
Bricks beginning to break
And your steps are leaving cracks in the sidewalks
Leaving trails of empty streets
You're pulling teeth, ripping flesh
So you can lick the blood from your fingers
So break these bones, taste my skin
Let my death sing the end of it
So you can do no more damage
So you collect no more trophies
And I hope you're fucking happy
I hope you're fucking happy
Bricks beginning to break
Your steps are leaving cracks in the sidewalks
Leaving trails of empty streets
And I'm going blind from staring at your eyes
Because they release the fire of a thousand suns
But I've grown so numb I can barely shed a tear
Even if you cut the strings that hold my head up
You're pulling teeth, ripping flesh
So you can lick the blood from your fingers
So break these bones, taste my skin
Let my death sing the end of it
So you can do no more damage
So you collect no more trophies
Let me be the last
Let no one feel how I feel
And this tragedy began with me
So let it end with me
From your hell I've become this numb
And I wish this pain on no one
Behind your smile, beneath your lungs
I hope your darkness comes
This tragedy began with me
So let it end with me
And I tried to be what you wanted me to be
And I'm sorry that I can never be perfect for you
But every time I look in the the mirror
I see your eyes staring back at me
And I don't want it anymore
Now buildings are starting to fall
Bricks beginning to break
And your steps are leaving cracks in the sidewalks
Leaving trails of empty streets
You're pulling teeth, ripping flesh
So you can lick the blood from your fingers
So break these bones, taste my skin
Let my death sing the end of it
So you can do no more damage
So you collect no more trophies
And I hope you're fucking happy
I hope you're fucking happy
