REASONS TO BE BEAUTIFUL
Love hangs herself
with the bed sheets in her cell
threw myself on the fires for you
10 good reasons to stay alive
10 good reasons that I can't find
Oh, give me a reason to be beautiful
so sick in his body so sick in his soul
oh give me one reason to be beautiful
oh and everything I am
Love hates you
I live my life in ruins for you
and for all your secrets kept
I squashed the blossom and the blossom's dead
oh give me reason to be beautiful
so sick in his body so sick in his soul
oh and I will make myself so beautiful
oh and everything I am
Miles and miles of perfect skin
I swear I do, I fit right in

Miles and miles of perfect skin

I cannot breathe

Give me a reason to be beautiful

I'll give you my body just sell me your soul
oh and everything I am will be bought and sold
oh and everything I am will turn hard and cold
and they say in the end
You'll get bitter just like them
and they steal you heart away
when the fire goes out you better learn to fake
it's better to rise the fade away
hey you were right
named a star for your eyes
did you freeze did you weep
turn to gold baby, sleep
hey honey mine
I was there all the time
and I weep at your feet
and it rains and rains
DYING
I am so dumb
just beam me up
I've had it all forever
I've had enough
USE ONCE AND DESTROY
It's the emptiness that follows you down
it's the ache inside when it all burns out
it's poisonous it muscles it aches
it's everything you had when it breaks
It's the emptiness that's all you have left
too terrified of your frozen breath
It's a bitter mouth it's buttered and knifed
it's the awful truth you fight for your life
It might as well it might as well hurt
It might as well it might as well
I went down to rescue you
I went all the way down
fill your hungry wretched life
here they come it's closing time
It's the bitter root it's twisted inside
it's the heart you used to have when it died
it's the emptiness it poisons it lies
It's everything that you'll never find
It might as well it might as well hurt
it might as well it might as well
I went down for the remains
sort through all your blurs and stains
take your rapture blister burns
stand in line it's not your turn
all dressed in red always the bride
off with her head all dressed in white
off with her head
I went down to rescue you
I went all the way down
I went down for the remains
Sort through all your blurs and stains
Ooh I will follow you
anytime anywhere
ohh I will come for you
just say you aren't there
NORTHERN STAR
and I cry, and no one can hear
Inhale
the blinded eyes that see
the chaos
bring the pitiful to me
even though I'm wide awake I will,
& blackest night & I wait for you
it's cold in here there's no one left
& I wait for you
& nothing stops it happening
& I knew. I'd cherish all my misery alone
and I wait, staring at the northern star
I'm afraid it won't lead me anywhere
He's so cold he will ruin the world tonight
all the angels kneel into the northern lights
Kneel into the frozed lights
and they paid. I cry and cry for you
ghosts that haunt you with their sorrow
I cried 'cause you were doomed
praying to the wound that swallows
all that's cold and cruel
can you see the trees, charity and gratitude
they run to the pines
it's black in here blot out the sun
& run to the pines
our misery runs wild and free
& I knew the fire and the ashes of his grace
and I wait staring at the northern star
I'm afraid it won't lead you very far
He's so cold, he will win the world tonight
all the angels kneel into the frozen lights
feel their hearts they're cold and white
and I want you
and blessed are the broked
and I beg you
no loneliness, no misery is worth you
oh tear his heart out cold as ice it's mine
and I wait praying to the Northern Star
I'm afraid it won't lead you anywhere
he's so cold, raining on the world tonight
all the angels kneeling to the northern lights
and I pray begging to the northern star
I'm afraid it won't lead you anywhere
He's so cold he will rule the world tonight
all the angels kneeling to the northern lights
kneeling to the frozen lights
feel their hearts they're cold as ice..
BOYS ON THE RADIO
oh the boys on the radio
they crash and burn
they fold and fade so slow
in your endless summer night
I'll be on the other side
when you're beautiful and dying
all the world that you've denied
when the water is too deep
you can close your eyes and really sleep tonight
your beauty blinds
if I let you in under my skin
and risen every angel slain
I know what you are running to
please come back oh come back again
I hear the truth
it's coming from you
oh come back won't come back again
in your endless summer night
I'll be on the other side
when the water is too deep
I will ease your suffering
when the glitter fades in morning
turn away, and you will find my empty eyes
your beauty blinds
I know that you are rotten to the core
I know that you don't love me anymore
I know that you are rotten to the core
HEAVEN TONIGHT
I feel the horses
coming galloping
I will never grow old
I'll go to heaven tonight
