Here: every eye is a mirror Here: every act is a crime Here: every presence a poison Here: every wall is a spy When you say 'turn', they all to turn When you say 'dive', they're all on their knees Chorus Pretending to guide me, you led me astray I don't want to fall into your kind of ways I will never sway And see thing that way Here: every move is an error Here: every breath is a fact Turn! Start! Turn! Dive! Here: every ear is a danger Here: every smile is a trap Here... Pretending to guide me, you led me astray I don't want to fall into your kind of ways Break I know you'll never take me Don't even think you'll break me Be sure you'll never take me I'm gonna make you see! Here: every look is a murder Here: every word is a bite When you say 'turn', they all start to turn When you say 'dive', they're all on their knees Turn! Start! Turn! Dive! Chorus

This feverish feeling Long-lasting and fleeting I yearn for the day A breath can fill my lungs again Then take me away (I taste the poison everyday) So take me away From everything that's kept me sick Holding onto this pain Will only bring me misery I'll never be the last one standing A fact of life and now I must face it This sickness inside Won't let me hide, God knows I've tried Discarded, unwanted, a product of the forgotten I hope someday I'll find the strength to feel alive Take me away from all of my suffering Please bury me with all of my misery Until I feel the rain And it helps me wash this pain away I taste the poison everyday Everyday Even though these moments are fleeting I just know I don't want you to save me This fever is what keeps my heart beating And I doubt I'll ever even save myself I'll never be the last one standing A fact of life and now I must face it This darkness inside Has never been a friend of mine Discarded, unwanted, a product of the forgotten I hope someday I'll find the strength to feel alive Take me away from all of my suffering Please bury me with all of my misery Until I feel the rain And it helps me wash this pain away I taste the poison everyday Even though these moments are fleeting I just know I don't want you to save me This fever is what keeps my heart beating And I doubt I'll ever even save myself I taste the poison everyday Take me away Take me away, take me away Please bury me Bury me, won't you bury me? Until I feel the rain And it helps me wash this pain away I taste the poison everyday Everyday

Deep and slow, but that's how it goes If anyone asks, yeah, I already know 'Cause I got this pain in my chest, every time I swim to consciousness And I misspelt every word perfectly Every mistake made was purposely And my head is pounding to the beat of my heart You are a broken heart tattoo, I'll have forever on my chest For a love that I have lost But never could forget Say what you have to say Try not to cry This is just not what you wanted, at this point in your life It's so hard to stay When all you wanna do is ride I totally get you I was a birdcage, and you were meant to fly You are a broken heart tattoo, I'll have forever on my chest For a love that I have lost But never will forget I shook 'til I came out of it I shook 'til I came out of it I shook 'til I came out of it I shook 'til I came out of it Let's sit down, we'll sit down proud We'll sit down proud We'll sit down Nothing matters, the importance of nothing Nothing matters, the importance of nothing Nothing matters, the importance of nothing That's what you taught me while I was barely listening Nothing matters, the importance of nothing (oh, oh, oh) Nothing matters, the importance of nothing (oh, oh) Nothing matters, the importance of nothing (oh, oh, oh) Nothing matters, nothing matters (oh, oh)

See, I was in handcuffs No one stood by my side No one to help me prove my charge was a lie Well, some prosecutor screams, "I'm a terrible guy" That I am guilty and I deserve twenty-five to life See, I lost my temper And the cop lost his cool A whole can of pepper spray Man, makin' me look like a fool And he started stompin' As I was gasping for air Already on the ground Man, I don't know That fight don't seem fair But with my pain came rage A light so bright I feel blind So I reach with my hands And a rock is what I do find He stops for a moment I gather my strength Just enough to swing quickly and put the rock right through his face And that's how it happened How he met his fate And how my left eye got burned out by the pepper spray Some called me a monster Things got super intense But I don't think I did nothin' wrong Your honor, I claim self-defense First, they talk to his cop friends And then they talk to his wife They all said the same thing He never hurt nothin' or no one in his whole life They made it seem pretty obvious That I was the one to blame Even my public defender Didn't have all that much to say The jury comes back in I try to look 'em all in the eyes Try to make 'em feel like takin' Another life, it don't make takin' The first one right And I hope that they realize I hope they truly understand Just how sorry I am things got so out of hand
