Did you leave your meds behind or are you filling up inside?
Are we just getting really high or are we falling?
This construct web of sin that says it will not let me in
Because it thinks I’ve never been, but I’m just stalling.
Just give me one more valium, I need to sink till I am gone.
My head is ringing the alarm and now I’m crawling!
Tell me how and where you need to go!
‘Cos I can give you all you need to grow!
Are you nervous? Do you care?
Well understand that I’m still there.
And I will be the one to help you let go!
And all of this anxiety is something you must never see!
I’ll never let you see me bleed, I need to feel your warmth!
Tell me how and where you need to go!
‘Cos I can give you all you need to grow!
Are you nervous? Do you care?
Well understand that I’m still there.
And I will be the one to help you let go!
And if we fall asleep I won’t wake you up!
The sirens in the rain will chill you to the bone!
And if we follow all the rules you’ll miss out on all the fun!
And it’ll all come undone!
Tell me how and where you need to go!
‘Cos I can give you all you need to grow!
Are you nervous? Do you care?
Well understand that I’m still there.
No matter what you do I’ll never let go!
Try but I’ll never let go! No I’ll never let you go!

I am a lier, a chronic deceiver, tell me what you desire and I will deliver.
There’s a look in your eye which I can not describe, but I can see the fire that you’re trying to hide.
Rules are there for a reason, yet you made me break them! So was it worth it; All the fun and games?
All I need is your touch, just need to feel your touch! Lead me away, I’ll follow you to a dark, dark place.
Open your eyes!
I’ll talk with my mouth, you’ll talk with your lips,
I’ll talk with my hands, you’ll talk with your fists.
We’re the blind leading the blind, please could you open your eyes!
I’ll talk with my mouth, you’ll talk with your lips.
You say you want more so you shoot from the hip.
We’re the blind leading the blind, please could you open your eyes!
And I’m so sick and tired of this psycho’s redemption, I see how you feel like you’re the only exception!
Am I just another dead friend to you? Tell me have I served my purpose?
Well we may not be infinite but, oh, you are so very permanent.
Please let me live! Please let me live in peace and quiet tonight!
Now open your eyes!
I’ll talk with my mouth, you’ll talk with your lips,
I’ll talk with my hands, you’ll talk with your fists.
We’re the blind leading the blind, please could you open your eyes!
I’ll talk with my mouth, you’ll talk with your lips.
You say you want more so you shoot from the hip.
We’re the blind leading the blind, please could you open your eyes!
I can see the fire you’re trying to hide, and I’m not going to let it burn me!
You make the hairs rise on my arm, but I’m not going to let your sins pollute me!
I’ll talk with my mouth, you’ll talk with your lips,
I’ll talk with my hands, you’ll talk with your fists.
We’re the blind leading the blind, please could you open your eyes!
I’ll talk with my mouth, you’ll talk with your lips.
You say you want more so you shoot from the hip.
We’re the blind leading the blind, please could you open your eyes!

Swallow [Acoustic]

Tell me how do you feel now, how do you feel now?
How do you feel alive?
Come now, make me believe you, how do I free you
How do you feel the highs?
With tape across your mouth spinning lies through your teeth.
And the looks that’s in your eyes doesn’t match what’s underneath!
And I tried to understand, but I can’t make you believe
That the look that’s in your eyes - it divides you, defines you, defiles you!
Is it just too much to swallow? Is it just too much!
Tell me how does it seem now, how do you breath now?
How do you fantasise?
It’s colder, how do you dream now, how do you cream now?
How do you you feel the rise?
With tape across your mouth spinning lies through your teeth.
And the looks that’s in your eyes doesn’t match what’s underneath!
And I tried to understand, but I can’t make you believe
That the look that’s in your eyes - it divides you, defines you, defiles you!
And I see the hesitation!
I want to look my killer in the eye, but I’m staring at my own reflection!
Damn the voice that’s in my head! Echoing the sounds of my regret!
Bloodstained eyes behind another cigarette!
With tape across your mouth spinning lies through your teeth.
And the looks that’s in your eyes doesn’t match what’s underneath!
And I tried to understand, but I can’t make you believe
That the look that’s in your eyes - it divides you, defines you, defiles you!
Is it just too much to swallow? Is it just too much!

Hey! You! How did you become so clean
When the rest of us are so obscene
And all of us are trying to please you?
You crept through my mind and left me inside.
Left me in pieces so don’t sympathise.
Why all these lies? Why do you have to
Tear me down and turn this (around) so it’s on me!?
I don’t understand, well what are you going to do now?
It’s all down to you.
Waiting for nothing. I know that you took them.
I know that you think you have done nothing wrong.
But know I don’t hate you, and I don’t say that lightly as you broke me and you
Tear me down and turn this (around) so it’s on me!?
I don’t understand, what are you going to do now?
It’s all down to you.
I’ll break free from you, now I’ve seen what you can do.
Now I’ve seen all that you are, so show me
What it means to be alone, to feel so far away from home.
To hide away; a lonely child being told their pain is mild.
And where are you? You’re never there. You showed me you didn’t care.
Well damnit I don’t care at all. I will never fall as you
Tear me down and turn this (around) so it’s on me!?
I don’t understand, well what are you going to do now?
It’s all down to you as you
Tear me down and turn this (around) so it’s on me!?
I don’t understand, well what are you going to do now?
It’s all down to you.
