Kisschasy

Two hours 'til doors
With my patience running short
I-I am shaking in my seat
As I grind my fucking teeth

I-I am waiting for the day
When no one is concerned
So excuse me if I may
This is how we spread the word

Seconds from the stage
Now we count in one, two, three
It's time to stop the hate
This is where you want to be

[Chorus:]
Now I'm red, I'm out of breath
Feel the music through your feet
A shot of light, I see the eyes
What a perfect way to meet

Now's the time to move
We've got nothing left to lose
And I-I will swallow all my pride
If you do the same tonight

Aren't you sick of waking up
Feeling like you've wasted time?
Let the demons in your head
Take control of your mind

Seconds from the end
Did it touch you like a priest?
Will you give up all your cares?
Now it's time to make your peace

[Chorus]

It's a waste, we can't relate
To this losing industry
But it's alright, we'll always fight
For the things that we believe

Seconds from the end
Did it touch you like a priest?
Will you give up all your cares?
Now it's time to make your peace

[Chorus]

It's a waste, we can't relate
To this losing industry
But it's alright, we'll always fight
For the things that we believe

Wait while jealousy tears you apart
I'm sorry but I cannot help the way you are
That we do the things you can't

Just wait
can't you see you're being weak?
It's shallow and dark you know every time you speak
You're just lying through your teeth

Sometimes, days are like you say yet I don't agree with what you see
But I will never let the bitter things you say ever get to me

Sometimes, days are like you say yet I don't agree with what you see
But I will never let the bitter things you say ever get to me

We are everything you wish you were
But, I'm feeling kinda concerned
we're probably friends
But you hide from consequence

Yeah you must have a lot of spare time
To put down the words that you write
But no one cares
You should put your mind to rest

Sometimes, days are like you say yet I don't agree with what you see
But I will never let the bitter things you say ever get to me

Sometimes, days are like you say yet I don't agree with what you see
But I will never let the bitter things you say ever get to me

Get to me...
Get to me...

Sometimes, days are like you say yet I don't agree with what you see
But I will never let the bitter things you say ever get to me

Sometimes, days are like you say yet I don't agree with what you see
But I will never let the bitter things you say ever get to me

You are the light waiting in the dark
You're real and untouched
You're the attack waiting for a heart
Like mine to open up

You saved the day, flew in like a dove
I tried to stay up
I can't believe who lies next to me
I can't keep my eyes shut

[Chorus:]
Where did you go dear?
I am alone in here
I'm running but I'm stuck
And bleeding from the waist up

Where did you go dear?
I am alone in here
I'm running but I'm stuck
I've fallen and I can't get up

I can't get up

You are a fire, burning in the sea
I swim in your heat
We are a choir singing hymns to keep
The widow's mind at ease

[Chorus]

Take me there
Take me where you are
Take me there
Take me where you are

Where you are

We are a choir singing hymns to keep
The widow's mind at ease

Take me there
Take me where you are
Take me there
Take me where you are

[Chorus]

Turn your eyes to me
I am watching every move you make
What should I wear today on my sleeve?

Let's take a step and move away
Underground is where we'll stay
For a while

[Chorus:]
I will mix my tongue with strings and drums
And give my soul away
Can you hear them come?
Strings and drums

You're my mystery
You are always at my fingertips
Without you I'm just bones and skin

I will lick your cuts and be your bruise
Until I fade from deepest blue
Into white

[Chorus]

I will change my words from nouns to verbs
And never be ashamed
Can you hear them come?
Strings and drums

I am writing myself clean
I am selling myself cheap
I am aching for a touch or a taste

And I'm aching, aching, aching now
I'm holding, holding, holding out
I'm calling, calling, calling out to you

[Chorus]

Strings and drums

[Chorus]

I will change my words from nouns to verbs
And never be ashamed
Can you hear them come?
Strings and drums
Strings and drums

Laying in the dust
Feeling the cold

Take me if you must
But not for too long

[Chorus:]
'Cause I feel so safe hiding my face
Like ugly birds in a beautiful cage
A bad actress in a wonderful play
An ugly bird in a beautiful cage
And I will stay the same

I have plastic eyes
And a heart made of snow

I love swimming up high
And flying down low

[Chorus]

Just pull me out now
Oh will you just pull me out now?

'Cause I feel so safe hiding my face
Like ugly birds in a beautiful cage
A bad actress in a fucked up play
An ugly bird in a beautiful cage
And I will stay the same

Today I woke up in a tiny plastic cup.
Spiders in my hair, crawling everywhere.
In my mouth, behind my eyes, keep me warm inside.
Flown here on my back. This is my hiding place.

And you will never see all the strange sides of me.

And it's so believable. I'm bad and bad is good.
If you're drugs and alcohol then I'll be the hangover.

The priests all have been buried in concrete.
I confessed my sins to clowns and buildings in the ground.
I found a mistake in the way that we were made.
Dress up party at my house, we'll all be someone else.

And you will never see all the strange sides of me.

And it's so believable. I'm bad and bad is good.
If you're drugs and alcohol then I'll be the hangover.

And we're so original. I'm bad and bad is good.
If you're drugs and alcohol then I'll be the hangover.

Drive fire engines through the desert and the rain.
I'll search the shipwrecks in the ocean for a flame.
Never caught a sickness that didn't list me as a friend.
Never made a friendship that didn't kill me in the end.

And you will never see all the strange sides of me.

And it's so believable. I'm bad and bad is good.
If you're drugs and alcohol then I'll be the hangover.

And we're so original. I'm bad and bad is good.
If you're drugs and alcohol then I'll be the hangover.
I'll be the hangover.

Right, is it right to take a life for the taste
Of a mother or her child
Do you think? Don't you think about the pain they face?
Just to end up on a plate

[Chorus:]
Can you taste the factory inside your chest?
It's not a drug, religion or the way you're dressed
If they could be dishonest would you be impressed?
Can you deny this?

You, if you didn't have a voice would that mean
That you were worth much less than me?
Don't you try, don't you try to justify your lust
For the blood of innocence

[Chorus]

Ignorance is bliss
It always is [x6]

[Chorus]

Ignorance is bliss
It always is [x2]

He just threw out all of his old clothes
And all the music that he owns
It's time for his yearly change of style

She speaks with a British accent
The keyboard is her favourite instrument
Oh-oh

[Chorus:]
The drinks are cheap and vinyl's cool
What do you think of my new shoes?
You know me and I know you
Yeah we do
[x2]

She used to love Reel Big Fish,
Then she decided she loved the Smiths
So she downloaded all their greatest hits



He is learning the tambourine
He tells his band that's what they're missing
Oh-oh

[Chorus x2]

Yeah we do, yeah we do

They both go to all of the same clubs
Where everyone takes all the same drugs
And talks about how they're 'so f**ked up'

They try to get up and dance
But they're all wearing spray on pants
It was a sight to be seen
I wonder who they'll be next week

[Chorus x2]

Sick, I'm on a road that's up and down
The devil choked and spit me out
'Can we get some air back here?'
Oh no you

Can't we make a search for common ground?
I'll take the woods you take the lost and found
Peel your eyes it's everywhere
I'm finding out

[Chorus:]
I'm a criminal, criminal
Inside my own humble home
I'm watching time race ahead
I'm missing you to death

Stop! I saw the culprit get away
He took a suitcase full of shame
He made a left but I'm not sure
For all I know...

[Chorus x2]

All, all I know
Down, down the drain
Cold, cold in this
Dark, dark, deep grave

[Chorus x2]

Two lovers dressed in their nighting gowns
Sleeping but their souls are somewhere else
Nobody came when they called for help

There was a ghost in the boy's bedroom
Wearing the boy's mother's perfume
He didn't know he would see her soon

[Chorus:]
It's watching you change
It's somewhere in the house
You can't get away
And baby cried her eyes out
[x2]

There was a leak in the kitchen sink
The carpet was red, now it's faded pink
There was enough for the walls to drink

[Chorus x2]

We are blinded by the gleam
We are following the sheep
It's like nothing we have seen before

Now I can't tell us apart
Take the dollar from your heart
It has taken everything we are

Sheep! Dead! Meat!

Two lovers dressed in their nighting gowns [x3]

We're rejected, neglected little busy bees
We don't smell right like ageing little bags of meat
I-I-I-I-I-I don't like this taste
But I didn't, didn't, didn't know how to wash it away

[Chorus:]
Honey why can't you tell
I don't want you around?
Honey why can't you tell?
Leave me out
[x2]

We are an army; we're looking for a place to fit in
We are angels committing all our pretty sins
I-I-I-I-I-I don't like this waste
But I didn't, didn't, didn't know how to shake it away

[Chorus x2]

We said oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh

We are crawling, collecting little stones in our knees
We are a movement but we will never be a scene
I-I-I-I-I-I don't like this face
But I didn't, didn't, didn't know how to scrape it away

[Chorus x2]

Honey why can't you tell
I don't want you around?
Honey why can't you tell?
[x2]

Talk, talk, talk, a constant canvas
Painting all that we know
Do you think that we don't know the truth?

Down, down low beneath the surface
You will find you're hollow
Say one word and that word will echo

[Chorus:]
Bite your tongue 'cause they won't listen
We won't sit and die here
All that's dark will now turn into light

Power doesn't come from one
It comes from the whole nation
You will never cut into the sky

Take, take, take but never give back
We've got more than we need
You've become the dagger in our back

We can't wait for intervention
There must be a change here
In the way we think and how we act

[Chorus]

There are no more virgins left in this town
Everybody's thinking up new names
Can't you see we're slowly going down, down?
And we can't let this be our fate

Down, down low beneath the surface
You will find you're hollow
Say one word and that word will echo

[Chorus]
