In a field outside of town, we could always be alone
Carry a blanket, maybe a basket - and that's it Innocence was the key, I was locked up, never free Until you turned me Like vines, we intertwined (like vines, we intertwined) Carelessly growing up and growing old Life was on our tongues (on our tongues) And it tasted heavenly, so good I wake up and I feel alone I was just asleep Right where I belong Inside this sad, sad song I knew this was a dream, it was too good to be true And the coincidences were a bit much too Who wants to wake up? Who wants to lose it? Who wants to live in this place? I don't, so I'll be sleeping in Like vines, we intertwined (like vines we intertwined) Carelessly growing up and growing old Life was on our tongues (on our tongues) It tasted heavenly so good I wake up but I feel alone I was just asleep Right where I belong Inside this sad, sad song Blankets here keep me from cold Holding tightly my pillows Frantically searching for her Inside my head she is somewhere She is somewhere I wake up and I feel alone I was just asleep (I was just asleep) Right where I belong Inside this sad, sad song (sad, sad, sad, sad song) I wake up and I feel alone I was just asleep (sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep) Right where I belong Inside this sad, sad, sad song |

A dark congregation
Of familiar faces Gathered around the quiet earth A red rose Fell upon the soft snow Prayers were whispered so slow From our mouths Our breath rose in the cold, like a hundred souls escaping Save me, I am swallowed by the guilt of this You're gone, sleeping in the dust We will not let time erase us We are surrounded By all of the quiet sleepers inside the quiet earth A fear that I cannot shape You dared to kiss the face of the night Our lips were cold as clay, we couldn't speak anyway Save me, I am swallowed by the guilt of this You're gone, sleeping in the dust We will not let time erase us Our breath rose in the cold Like a hundred souls We, we are alone I know you're gone Save me, I am swallowed by the guilt of this You're gone, sleeping in the dust We will not let time erase us |

Rain falls, quickly wetting my hair and clothes
My cries fall upon her deaf ears, more tears Let me in, please it's cold, I'm freezing out here, I miss you my dear You're all his and I'm all yours, like it or not, I'm all you've got Everyone will make mistakes Without the sour the sweet wouldn't taste as Sweet tangerine, will you please come back to me? Cause I don't think that these feelings are gonna leave Light cuts through the clouds and haunts me, like bad dreams Outside, lookin' in, I'm feeling lost and cold as sin A shred of hope, a little bit of sweetness - anything please, except for defeat If I could I'd lock you up and toss out the key, it's just you and me Everyone will make mistakes (and I know I have) Without the sour the sweet wouldn't taste as Sweet tangerine, will you please come back to me? Cause I don't think that these feelings are gonna leave (yeah, yeah) Sweet melody, you'll be singing in your sleep But this time you're not listening to a word I say Crept through the curtains, as quick as the cold wind Slowly exploring the room where you sleep The stare of your portrait, the passing of your scent Left me no choice but to stay I will dissolve into the dark beneath your bed My hands will wait for a taste of your skin Sweet tangerine, will you please come back to me? Cause I don't think that these feelings are gonna leave (yeah, yeah) Sweet melody, you'll be singing in your sleep But this time you're not listening to a word I say A word I say |

The lions roar and young men soar
The flames all scorch, the circus floor Puppets on string, all dance and sing, and flap their wings Trumpets play sick lullabies Delicate dame, her fragile face Was scared away, without a trace Out in the cold, where did she go? Into unknown, a place I'll never Know and the desperate search began All across this sea and land I just knew I'd find you here I just knew I'd find you Elephants rear, and young men steer The audience, just claps and cheers I asked around, half empty towns About a girl, nowhere to be found And the desperate search began All across this sea and land I just knew I'd find you here I just knew I'd find you We didn't know, we could not go The circus songs, just carried on Out of the crowd, three men rush out And scream and shout, "Everybody stop!" |

Take what you need while there's time
The city will be earth in a short while If I'm not mistaken, it's been in flames You and I will escape to the seaside There is a storm in the distance The wind breathing warning of its imminence There is a lighthouse, five hundred yards down You and I will be safe there There is a girl who haunts that lighthouse She saved me, I was swimming So young I almost drowned Under the water, she sang a story Of losing her lover She calls a warning Love, you are foolish, you're tired Your sleeplessness makes you a liar The city is burning The ocean is turning Our only chance is the lighthouse Her lover was a sailor She went and she waited there The door locked from the outside Lover never arrived, so she sings there Soft as a siren Luring the ships off their course, how alarming We went in, we climbed up and looked out The door locked from the outside Three ghosts in a lighthouse |

You came to me
In seamless sleep And slipped right in Behind my eyes On the back of my mind We swam a sea Of pretty sights and chandelier skies I swore I could feel you breathe It was all so real to me The light, it slipped through the window The morning ripped you away, oh Don't wake me up I am still dreaming The storms undone Unraveled at the seams Don't wake me up Death is misleading And when I fall asleep Sleep with a ghost I moved in the dark The room calm and cold The quiet hollow I am such a haunted soul Your ghost has gone The bed is so cold The light, it slipped through the window The morning ripped you away, oh Don't wake me up I am still dreaming The storms undone Unraveled at the seams Don't wake me up Death is misleading And when I fall asleep Sleep with a ghost Oh, you were a fire caught in a storm Memories, like embers keep us warm You will leave me in the morning Leave me Patrick Stump The light, it slipped through the window The morning ripped you away, oh The light, it slipped through the window The morning ripped you away, oh The light, it slipped through the window The morning ripped you away, oh |

My heart has lost its wind now
Broken like a dead sail My love has drifted out to sea My body has been claimed Soul has been shipped away Can't feel the sand between my toes We set the wrong course And headed due north That's where we went wrong We were young and learning Steady hearts hate turning That's where we went wrong My will to fight has been flushed Seized like blank babies faces The water line begins to rise Let the tide swallow me whole Like morning light through windows Let that dark water take me home We set the wrong course And headed due north That's where we went wrong We were young and learning Steady hearts hate turning That's where we went wrong Greta: Hey, come back to me Darren: Hey, come back to me Greta: Hey, come back to me Darren: Baby, come back to me Chris: Ba ba da ba ba ba We set the wrong course And headed due north That's where we went wrong We were young and learning Steady hearts hate turning That's where we went wrong |

Your heartbeat is pulsing at night in your chest
It's gold and it's glowing with all the life you have left I received your words, from hospitals, where you felt alone Your words like smoke, they made me sick but they kept me warm Run where you'll be safe Through the garden gates To the shelter of magnolias Your eyes are like sea glass, so weathered and worn From all they've seen of adolescence torn The lovers who have tainted you, they pulled you into the night They touched your skin with velvet gloves and made you feel alive Run where you'll be safe Through the garden gates To the shelter of magnolias There's not much time The blush in the sky begins to fade You are weathered and worn Your petals soft and torn The fading color You have bent your shoulders To hold the weight of the world You will surely shatter Run where you'll be safe Through the garden gates To the shelter of magnolias There's not much time The blush in the sky begins to fade |

Who shot that arrow in your throat?
Who missse the crimson apple? it hung heavy on the tree above your head This chaos, This calamity, This garedn once was perfect GIve me your immortality to me , I 'll set you up against the stars Gloria we lied, we can't go on This is the time and this is the place to be, alive Who shot that arrow in your throat? Who missse the crimson apple? and there is discord in the garden tonight The sea is wine red This is the death of beauty The doves have died The lovers have lied I caught the arrow from your neck Stretched you beneath the tree Along the roots and baby's breath l covered us with silver leaves Gloria we lied we can't go on This is the time and this is the place to be, alive The sea is wine red This is the death of beauty The doves have died The lovers have lied The sea is wine red This is the death of beauty The doves have died The lovers have lied The sea is wine red This is the death of beauty The doves have died The lovers have lied |

Like the light was all I had
I struck the book with my last match The candle burned so soft and slow I felt the warmth and felt its glow Salt tasting tears They roll off of my lips One for each day I'm inside this house, it's a trap One I can't quite escape so pretend it's the place that I love Won't let it pass me by again Won't let it pass me by again The grass was clipped The summer sun Was beating down on my front yard All the boys and girls would laugh I'd watch them through the curtain's crack Place all your bets and watch me lose The life that I got but never used Dream every night that one will come true But only bad ones ever do Won't let it pass me by again Won't let it pass me by again My heart beats way too fast To let regret sit in my lap Won't let it pass me by again Won't let it pass me by again (Won't let this pass me by again) Won't let it pass me by again (Won't let this pass me by again) Won't let it pass me by again |

Shadows all around you as you surface from the dark
Emerging from the gentle grip of night's unfolding arms Darkness, darkness everywhere, do you feel all alone? The subtle grace of gravity, the heavy weight of stone You don't see what you possess, a beauty calm and clear It floods the sky and blurs the darkness like a chandelier All the light that you possess is skewed by lakes and seas The shattered surface, so imperfect, is all that you believe I will bring a mirror, so silver, so exact So precise and so pristine, a perfect pane of glass I will set the mirror up to face the blackened sky You will see your beauty every morning that you rise |
