1.
Your wishes are just disease and trapped inside each fever dream. The lines between close and apart are etched inside the empty dark. Last night, the dead came alive and we're running through the night to survive and still got that money in the backseat, man man Running through the highways with no plan Day one, it's time for us to run Day three, we both escape the city Day four, we barricade the door Day five, we're both still alive Now we're here in the city of undead Moving fast, learning how to survive Yeah, here we are in the city of undead and I can't tell between the dead and alive Thinking back, I forgot to tell you I wish I had just one more chance to take the time to really understand you before we lost to circumstance Still they persist, now we're defenseless We spent the evening in the back of a truck I wanna trust you, I wanna love you, but I think I'm down on my luck
2.
We peddle sin to the highest bidder, black magic from the back of our carts. We speak to demons and we know their secrets, deep cuts in the coldest of hearts. We bottle lies and the worst intentions, black spots and the blackest of nights. We make deals with the cruelest of humans, cold blooded with a crook in their spines. Well-versed in sin and sacrifice, we bottle doom and we trade in gloom. Steal the soul of every girl in the gentry, indiscretions with the boys in the ballroom. Sharp tongues and the mass corrupted, sink in and I'll sing you to sleep. Everyone lives a life of virtue, I'll show you better if you stick it with me. Oh, you think that you're so clever? Come up and try your luck. I pull the strings that'll make your soul dance, unaware you've already given it up. And you know that you'll lose. Tell me that you want to.
3.
Leave their hearts for dead and paint them scarlet red. Play the rook against the pawn, and drain them 'til it's gone. Build me up or bring me down, lead this city all to waste. Build me up, bring me down. Oh, I'll never be replaced. Build me up, bring me down, oh, lead the city all to waste. Build me up, bring me down, oh, get me out of this place. This queen, her crown, even the bravest men will fall. God knows her life will damn us all. This queen, her crown, burn the bridges, scale the walls. Tell him that you mean it, tell him that you do. Say it with your best voice, because I see right through.
4.
Break apart my dialogue, deconstruct my words. It's all that I can do right now to keep you in my world. Is today a day you need me or a day I'm cast aside? I'll never understand you or the way that you decide. I just wish I ever knew what I really meant to you. It goes on and on and on. I just wish you'd ever say, 'Wait, please don't go away.' It goes on and on and on. Break apart my sympathy and all the times I've tried. Cross the line between us, see my heart is on that line. Another time of peace, oh lord, another time of war. Hold me to your standards until I'm holding on no more.
