Sleep Tight, My Gun - Coheed and Cambria lyrics (page 1 of 3)
from the album "The Second Stage Turbine Blade"

TIME CONSUMER

The young stale memories of, play the role to your part, librarian find me the pole, the one that kicks your head in.
To my own time role your own innocence by, grab onto my sleeve, the one that grabs at your ankle.
Debate to understand that we all have a flaw, then fail to represent your life as you know it.
God grant you one wish to turn back the time, correct and create, making sense of.
Me and my star, Matthew good night, you know by law when you'll be forgiven.
Maria my star, Matthew good night, you know, my lord, when you'll be forgiven.
So they pulled your confidence down with those verbal discrepancies.
Now and then you'll gain what they've lost through a challenge of unpronounced.
Pain is only a pulse if you just stop feeling it, you might be able to use the very things that make us up.
Me and my star, Matthew good night, you know by law when you'll be forgiven.
Maria my star, Matthew good night, you know, my lord.
Wait now here, when will you believe me, I'm merely asking you to help me, when did I say to murder?
Wait now here, please hear me out, time consumer, time consuming, consume me, down and out now.
Me and my star, Matthew good night, you know by law when you'll be forgiven.
Maria my star, Matthew good night, you know, my lord, when you'll be forgiven.
You know, good night, and I'll promise you that.

DEVIL IN JERSEY CITY

(Shabutie.)
New Jersey bound, when sound asleep they'll find you at your most vulnerable poll position.
Speak up, let out, when down the street the corner boys fuck shit up.
Scream loud, scream sayonara, sweet Josephine, will you follow me home?
Scream loud, scream sayonara, sweet Josephine, will you fuck me back home?
Let's fire it up now, sayonara.
Don't let them scare you when you're down on the floor bleeding, bastard,
You'll be getting home real soon and I'll pray for you high health.
Speak up, let out, caught in the crossfire, compared to the step to the bone that might break.
It's too late to find a better way out of this, with the finest regards that I lost in the cracks of this street.
(Wide open, now you're dead and gone.)
Scream loud, scream sayonara, sweet Josephine, will you follow me home?
Scream loud, scream sayonara, sweet Josephine, will you fuck me back home?
Let's fire it up now, sayonara.
Don't let them scare you when you're down on the floor bleeding, bastard,
You'll be getting home real soon and I'll pray for you high health.
Don't let them scare you, take me home, when you run they'll follow you.

EVERYTHING EVIL

Wait for everything evil in you comes out, I'll stay when we'll only motivate sound instead, Sergeant.
Make for the table in hopes that I won't be afraid again, call when enabled and send the leader out against, I will
Stage a reenactment in a false pretence, exist, inflict.
Unworthy unconsciousness, why debate when the actions suppressed, then kill the acquitted?
Listen to the sounds that remain in question in hopes to solidify a truce
Amongst the children and the jury that stands the verdict, alive here among the dead.
Evolve Monstar, show me the things I never wanted done; evolve Monstar, do to me the things I never wanted done.
I felt much better than this before; if they find out to avoid, then the accidents kept hidden away, but if they stay.
Blood-hungry cannibalistic unfit family ties, a series of knocks to the young girl's head side.
Come write me a letter and paste it on my refrigerator door, inspected Inspector, I think we've found something over here.
I felt much better than this before; if they find out to avoid, then the accidents kept hidden away, but if they stay.
Jesse, just come look at what your brother did here, he did away with me.
Stay until Wednesday and write me a childlike letter, pretending.
At war here in Thursday, let's make this our last day at home by the Fence.
Would you run, would you run down past the Fence?
And she screamed, 'Claudio, dear Claudio, I wish, goddamn it, we'll make it if you believe!'
(FBI!)

DELIRIUM TRIGGER

We're now up here alone, terror on the intercom, can someone save us?
Systems malfunction, blast it, this damn machine, over and out, Captain.
Something lurks, creeps on the countertop somewhere behind you,
Parasitic cyst, I can't stand to watch, it's coming up and out of your chest, remember when we were young.
Sit up right on the table, a photograph of Earth feeding me a way back; frightened, I tear alone, or maybe not the only one there.
Hello, when it rings will you answer? There corner, tall short stance, it's you, come on, kill me.
You made a good friend to me, but while you were outnumbered and torn, you made us do things.
Oh dear God, I don't feel alive when you're cut short of misery, will you pray it be the end?
Give a look, surprised wide eyes to me, then you'll know just what I am, the scare that triggers your fear.
Come know me in a different light now, come know me as God.
You made a good friend to me, but while you were outnumbered and torn, you made us do things to you.
Run sand hourglass, it's my time, will I be worth? Spin round carousel when your horse isn't screwed in.
Oh dear God, I don't feel alive when you're cut short of misery, will you pray it be the end?
Give a look, surprised wide eyes to me, then you'll know just what I am, the scare that triggers your fear.
Come know me in a different light now, come know me as God.
(Raise forth lost cause, subtle demise, the legitimate cry.)

HEARSHOT KID DISASTER

Still searching for your call today, sit down, and Structure will you be the engineer?
Still tired and dreaming out again and overboard, when pain kills you'll hate me and wait for, or
Then call me crazy and pretend I left us discontent and afraid.
So what, so I'm crazy, then send me justice and I'll have Paris in flames.
Still searching for your faith in the arm that killed the president, relapse waiting here for.
Still searching for your face in the crowd that killed the president, relapse waiting here for.
I need Mayo, I won't fail you now, dear Captain, send the SOS when we're gonna go down.
(We're going down and you're all fucked up for sure!)
Wound open and squeezing my heart against, this pain inflicts and in passion I bleed for it,
But with this what they gave me, this book and flint and a match to go with it.
Still searching for your faith in the arm that killed the president, relapse waiting here for.
Still searching for your face in the crowd that buried New Mexico, I'll be waiting here for.
I need Mayo, I won't fail you now, dear Captain, send the SOS when we're gonna go down.
(We're going down and you're all fucked up for sure!)
(Have you ever heard the lyrics he sang?) In his thoughtful transmission, the words lost, sentence remain.
(Sing his song, sing his song loud!) Structure will you be the engineer?
(Where's your song or have you lost the key or tone?)
Thank God for your strength, would you hold your breath, waiting for me to exhale in the short life lived?

33

It's not what you have learned, but what they said about you under your shirt, you know they never will.
They'll make sense of what you gave them and now it's all downhill from here.
Well, in case you break my fall, we're bringing it home.
Patrick, short flip and outside boundary lines.
I'm running you down, well nothing looks right from up here.
Inside out, I'm still unclear about the things you might have said.
In pieces they stagger embedded, rush me to the emergency room.
Flat line equals frantic endeavour, but I guess this'll have to do now.
Patrick, short flip and outside, we're bringing it home.
I'm running you down, well nothing seems right from up here.
Inside out, I'm still unclear about the things you might have said.
Hold on to the things you favour most, shift right and let it run down.
If my peace could find a way out, let go of the youthful honesty.

JUNESONG PROVISION

Good morning, sunshine, awake when the sun hits the sky, look up, the sounds that surround the day you die.
She waits for me outside near a hole in the ground, and that's one way thinking you might get the upper hand.
Dear Newo Ikkin, how's Apollo been treating you, has he been a good boy since the day I left?
Give him my love and a sweet kiss for his head, cause I won't be coming home, when you get this I'll be dead.
Norris and Larry, Gloria to nowhere.
Sir, I think you'd better take my hand and pray we'll make this one out alive.
Captain, we've lost all systems control; then son, I'll see you in my sleep.
Is it all you've shared with them that makes us paranoid, is it the dream that one day you might be something you're not?
Is it all you've shared with them that makes us paranoid, is it the dreams that make us real?
(We'll miss you and wait for you when you come.)
Wrong way, right way, bad luck, what God has been giving me.
Wrong way, right way, bad luck, you've got to be kidding me.
I've spent so long sitting down here, paper-cut my heart in half and discard the evidence.
When it's yours, come send me the left half doused in kerosene in a torched blazed bloodbath.
When boy sets fire, God knows you've lost at a cost that has no price when you've purchased guilt,
Stand at attention and make sure you know the lines and yourself, yet you'd say, 'I'll be home alone again, waiting.'
Wait for me alright, I'm still a boy down there when you want to promise me that.
(To drive down, where's Wednesday?)

NEVERENDER

When you've gone about things all wrong, bury them here with the lifetime you would never regret.
In savouring sleep, what do you mean I toss and turn everywhere?
I'll miss you when you're gone, in pretending that you meant the world to me.
With that you'd call me a liar and in the making mistakes, you'll rest incomplete.
(I'll be home, I'll be moving on.)
In graver mistakes, dear mom and dad, I write you in this letter that states:
When the new day's begun, forget your son when he's out on his own.
When the hand reads seven-thirty and your night begins to sink in the short but faster fall,
In the anxious but calm retort to a mirror that frames your face, barring the finest swell,
When the day begins to break like the tears that run across your cheek, stand straight and imagine you then
In the things and the way they could have been when the thoughts they race across your chin here in the Neverend.
(I'll be home, I'll be moving on.)
In graver mistakes, dear mom and dad, I write you in this letter that states:
When the new day's begun, forget your son when he's out on his own.
Point your gun in another direction now that you've cried yourself to sleep, here in there after the fire.
(Before the long walk home, signal loss and stereo, the sounds that surround the overpass, a dead man against you.)
Peace and figuring will he be home again, with wide open windows will she be waiting for,
With severed arm placement when the day's dark, old and dead, we'll write her a letter with long time passing by.
(I'll be home, I'll be moving on.)
In graver mistakes, dear mom and dad, I write you in this letter that states:
When the new day's begun, don't forget son when he's out on his own.
Point your gun in another direction now that you've cried yourself to sleep, here in there after the fire.
I'll be home to say I love you and I'll be moving on, and I'll be bigger.

GOD SEND CONSPIRATOR

Hold in your last breath and stare, assure me your metronome's left arm stick shift is stuck on the right words in your ear.
Could you hear me loud and clear, in sight and out of mind, cautiously avoiding the cracks not to disturb your steadied arm straight line?
The facts before a climb, a plan before a crime, tired in the days that passed away, sporadically arranged across the floor when you've got it made.
Dear Mariah, the world's not big enough for the both of us when we live in the same town, that's wrong.
Fight on fire, burn my hands til I got nothing left to count my numbers on, that's wrong, what's wrong?
Your wise-ass comments could cheer you up, the emotional disturbance, relax, deep breath, sit back, from the space in which you stand, here and in demand.
Don't touch a fresh wound that bleeds all over your carpets the stains, the storybook remains, and the page that states you've lied.
Accept and then reply, acknowledge the other guy, tired in the days that passed away, sporadically arranged across the floor when you've got it made.
Dear Mariah, the world's not big enough for the both of us when we live in the same town, that's wrong.
Fight on fire, burn my hands til I got nothing left to count my numbers on.
Don't change your mind when all's been won, your words in time, with the loss that you'd let them go.
Don't let them fall if your grip's not strong, in time decide with the words that you'd let them go.
Dear Mariah, come sleep in your own bed.
When eye meets eye, be calm, will lie here alone, locked the children in the floor.
Father figure wraps his face down, we're coming home to you.
(Who sat me down here?) Your dreams can't last forever, locked the children in the floor.

IRO-BOT

In our days we've mourned insignias, the passing glance unstamped.
We've rendered ourselves powerless, fortunate the useless mend the fixed,
And on every hour it detonates, my courage goes unlooked.
The ride home through perilous, when the land it goes, I will.
You've been a bad boy, you broke all the rules; you've been a bad boy, you'll get yours paid in full.
IRO-Bot will never die, my robot will never die, you look down but far from out and the paper reads, you lose.
IRO-Bot will never kill.
A favour, Captain, a word with you, my system's gone and lost its mind; my right eye has done shed a tear, my gun I've left behind.
Will systems take me home and dissemble me, will I be terminated with you near,
Alongside the others that I hold so close, if I'm to be killed, then when, by whom?
You've been a bad boy, you broke all the rules; you've been a bad boy, you'll get yours paid in full.
IRO-Bot will never die, my robot will never die, you look down but far from out and the paper reads, you lose.
IRO-Bot will never die.

ELF TOWER NEW MEXICO

Elf Power, New Mexico.
Thank God you're still angry at me, I've got a better chance seeing you dead and buried.
Thank you for this one last big mistake, it's your turn, come shoot for it, if you win, well you can lead the way.
Middays are grey into New Jersey, did you think maybe I was doing quite well without you in the frame?
Staile, killed in defence, I can't believe I told you right after, I've given you up, go on find someone new.
Til then pretend, you've touched me for your last time, I've given you up, go on find someone new.
Dear Nikki, what if I could have found a better half here in you?
I merely came here, in Elf Power, New Mexico, Elf Tower, New Mexico.
Stay here in our last standing hourglass, circumstance.
Devoted here in the midst of weary eyes, lost and buried here in your big surprise again.
Will your fingers find my bag, familiar fit in the questions I had to ask?
Did you think maybe I was doing quite well without you in the frame?
Staile, killed in defence, I can't believe I told you right after, I've given you up, go on find someone new.
Til then pretend, you've touched me for your last time, I've given you up, go on find someone new.
Dear Nikki, what if I could have found a better half here in you?
I merely came here, in Elf Power, New Mexico.
Smile, tomorrow you are home, I'll give my words in one lesson.
Dear God, before I heard this is your intention, for I could have figured out, over and over.
Dear, there's Coheed and Cambria in departure, absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Thank God they recovered your body in New Mexico, three days spoiled.
I miss you in every way, you could have been dear, I wish you were here, still in the frame.

THE RING IN RETURN

Hello Apollo, where should I begin?

IN KEEPING SECRETS OF SILENT EARTH: 3

A broad incision sits across the evening, the victim to our father's lost war.
The restless children sit and mourn the graves of those they've never seen before.
Will they be buried here among the dead, in the silent secret?
The pioneers, in dealing with it they march for dawn, of Will and worthy, the truth be told, the child was born.
Man your own jackhammer, man your battle stations, we'll have you dead pretty soon, and now,
Sincerely written from my brother's blood machine, man your battle stations, we'll have you home pretty soon, and now.
Awake through motion with curious to curtain your first move, over arms' length they'll break protocol.
Jealous envy for the youngest one, to be the hero is all I'll ask.
Can I be buried here among the dead, with room to honour me here in the end?
You'll be better off too soon, you'll be better off when you get home.
The pioneers, in dealing with it they march for dawn, for Will and worthy, the truth be told, the child was born.
Man your own jackhammer, man your battle stations, we'll have you dead pretty soon, and now,
Sincerely written from my brother's blood machine, man your battle stations, we'll have you home pretty soon, and now.
For you I'd do anything just to make you happy, hear you tell me that you're proud of me.
For them I'll kill anything, cut the throats of babies for them, break their hearts for they were them, waiting for you to say, 'I love you too.'
The navigator, the pilot, her favourite, the one they call the vision that bears the gift.
Will, do the children really understand the things you did to them?
And why should they conjure up the will, for you, my love, I would kill him.
We're coming home pretty soon.
In the seventh turning hour, will the victim's shadow fall, should the irony grow hungry with the victory and all they sought for?
We were one among the Fence.
We're coming home.
Man your own jackhammer, man your battle stations, we'll have you dead pretty soon, and now,
Sincerely written from my brother's blood machine, man your battle stations, we'll have you home pretty soon, till then.

CUTS MARKED IN THE MARCH OF MEN

Listen to the world out on the outside pressing in, are you ready on my mark?
Fingers given names and with the last word they ascend on the comfort of their well-being in arms,
Into something they can't stop but wish that they could kill, you're the answer to their prayers.
In your last hour stand, you'll notice the one that you had loved in dreams is here among the others.
Chase, it's you I want, but if I can't have her then why should I spend any more time in a world that's gonna end pretty soon?
I need you now more than I ever did, I'll hand myself over for you.
This comlink's lost its frequency and I feel that we're coming home short, here take me instead, I'd rather not see her off alone.
Scattered amongst the killing streets the children slate defence, is God's work to have us fail?
Rivered blood streams out the dead as bodies foul the air, I'll make peace when this is done.
In arms we storm, slowly the streets begin to fill with new flesh bound to bone, armed and ready it begins again.
In your last hour stand, you'll notice the one that you had loved in dreams is here among the others.
Chase, it's you I want, but if I can't have her then why should I spend any more time in a world that's gonna end pretty soon?
I need you now more than I ever did, I'll hand myself over for you.
This comlink's lost its frequency and I feel that we're coming home short, here take me instead, I'd rather not see her off alone.
Tonight we form.
Deliver a favour to my love.

THREE EVILS (EMBODIED IN LOVE AND SHADOW)

Across the floor in the hand of where we drove the drill, a cautious ear to the mouth of your confession.
Think of all the things we put him through, in the face of his god would he tell the truth?
Still recorded were the words that dribbled out his kiss, when eyes go blind in this man of what could once become.
Sever the limbs off his torso in sleep and burn what remains so the world may now see
No longer will we wait for your answers, back to the hell where you've come from.
Think of all the times you once had, write them in a letter that says goodbye.
You'll listen to reason while you're face down in the dirt, you'll stomach the hurt and break for him here just how much he's worth.
Slowly discarded were the remains of his lonely youth, among the alley where the dwellers scare to notice.
Picture a young boy in pieces and streets with levelled malfunctions, no name to be called redeemer.
We'll fix him, restore him, with the love is no other.
Think of all the things you did before, write them in a letter that says reborn.
You'll listen to reason while you're face down in the dirt, you'll stomach the hurt and break for him here just how much he's worth.
(Following you across the interstate walking away,) I'll fire on, on the wrong way out, on the causeway to neverwhere.
Dear my friends, in the time we've spent forever after beyond this, when will our nightmare ever end?
Pull the trigger and the nightmare stops, forever you will learn.

THE CROWING

I fed the clues of a lost day killed in motion, but I thought of it so like there's no other way it could have been done.
Will they size my fit for a puzzle I wish not to play a part in it, a heart stained in hate, a feeling of fear will play circles.
But you were my favourite, but you know you were my favourite.
I severed my ties to shroud this body under the streets of this city and wait for the day when I am summoned to walk across the face.
Well, slowly but clearer now, in visions that play and plague memories, I loved them with all, as the son should to mother and father.
But you were my favourite, but you know you were my favourite.
Would I walk through the door, shedding the light of all life; with the rise and reform, would I come as before?
Pray you're not the only one.
If given mistakes would I take them back if erasing them could, if erasing them would, but would they be the words that I would say?
Your face and a door between, I've parted three ways for you, the Newo that I love.
Did you ever really know before my face shamed to break, did you ever really know before my mind scared to think,
Did you ever really know before my name, son to these, did you come clean in the end from the start?
Dear Ambellina, the Prise wishes you to watch over me.
Dear Ambellina, the Prise wishes her to watch over me.
I fought the decisions that called and lost my mark in the revelant piece in this, I will come reformed.
In short, for the murders of those I court I bless the hour that holds your fall, I will kill you all.
I will call you out from shelter, burn your wings, you'll know no better.
I will call you out from shelter, burn your wings and learn their letters.

BLOOD RED SUMMER

Faint white figures paint my sleep, please don't tell my secrets, keep them hidden (you got it).
If the words that matter reach your face from floor, will you be wondering if, or (do I need what is given or honest)?
Does it cost me scarring if the words stay true, even number your nephew (I don't want it anymore)?
And when the answer that you want is in the question that you state, come what may.
In a pain that buckles out your knees, could you stop this if I plead (you got it)?
So destined I am to walk among the dark, a child in keeping secrets from (will they know what I've done in the after).
In the sought-for matter when the words blame you, in a blood red summer I'll give you (I don't want it).
And when the answer that you want is in the question that you state, come what may.
What did I do to deserve this?

THE CAMPER VELOURIUM I: FAINT OF HEARTS

With the worries that I'd give her in they told the worst of me,
My wanting just to hold your neck in my arms and feel me squeeze.
No, I'm not gonna to give you what you want, so if you please,
The sin that shapes your voice carries my ears this new disease.
Did somebody take your tongue?
In worries of the words that you couldn't say if they could have saved them from,
But I don't want to sleep without, so I bid to you goodnight tonight, sleep tight, my love.
The anxious through the calming storm, you'll sit as you pray for rain.
I'll touch it if you ask me to, but how is up to you.
No, I'm not gonna to let you get up if you struggle willingly,
I'll favour all your form to show you how it's been done to me.
Did somebody take your tongue?
In worries of the words that you couldn't say if they could have saved them from,
But I don't want to sleep without, so I bid to you goodnight tonight, sleep tight, my love.
With all the words you say, you'll save.
You were so well-behaved as you arched and made your way, this gift for you engraved, the shift as you stretch your legs.
You were so well-behaved, who taught these tricks that make, you were so well-behaved.
If the world stops turning, girl, you better not stop when I say.
If there was nothing you could do to stop it, why'd you try?
Then the ground starts parting through the silence as you woke up the dead, everything here dies alone.
But I'm not quite sure what you've been told on Labor Day, I'm not starting with you but the faint of heart while worries wait.
But I'm not quite sure what this unfolds on Labor Day, I'm not starting with you but the Faint of Hearts.
Did somebody take your tongue?
In worries of the words that you couldn't say if they could have saved them from,
But I don't want to sleep without, so I bid to you goodnight tonight, sleep tight, my gun.

THE CAMPER VELOURIUM II: BACKEND OF FOREVER

Rocked silent in a soft lullaby, panic stirred me, awakened by a ringing phone in time, where and when would I see her?
Crazy were the words that scribbled out your mouth, I stuttered replacing your face to those words, where and when would I kill her?
I'll wish on this, I'll wish with this, to the bitter end of my day, well, where were you?
So you had your turn and you made it work, now I'm the laughingstock of your joke.
As crazy as it may seem, I cried for you when you
Told me to date all of the things that made you end up in my life, and I'll believe anything, I have no luck with girls.
I overheard that you were unhappy too, misleading toss into a relationship that makes no sense, over and out Connecticut,
But you had your back turned there as you faded away to the end of my day, I found out you weren't worth what I thought of you.
Write this down in your diary you abuse, can we make plans, can I just get through to you, is this weird, do I scare her?
I'll wish on this, I'll wish with this, I'll wish that you could share the love you'd shared with others with me.
So you had your turn and you made it work, now I'm the laughingstock of your joke.
As crazy as it may seem, I cried for you when you
Told me to date all of the things that made you end up in my life, and I'll believe anything, I have no luck with girls.
I overheard that you were unhappy too, misleading toss into a relationship that makes no sense, over and out Connecticut,
But you had your back turned there as you faded away to the end of my day, I found out you weren't worth what I thought of you.
This isn't love, so forever let it go, forever let it burn.
This isn't love there on the backend of forever, I wish I would never hurt again.

THE CAMPER VELOURIUM III: AL THE KILLER

At birth given scars along tender heart liberties, injustice for awkward living situated casualties,
They lay dead along your floor, careful not to wake them, they're sleeping.
In the morrow's good mourning, the dying will discard the wish to live.
Let this colony know in the name of the dead we're coming.
When I kill her I'll have her, dance upon the graves of the dead, upon your name.
Die white girls, dance upon the graves of the dead.
You'll get nothing for something, arise the hidden war of a dead song unsung.
The night of your children's day beneath the surface sealed by the floors boarded up.
Seal the lips of your voice with haste and cower at the sounds as they make their way.
Surprise, speed and malice, the opposing break the surface hold ready.
Let this colony know in the name of the dead we're coming.
When I kill her I'll have her, dance upon the graves of the dead, upon your name.
Die white girls, dance upon the graves of the dead.
Will the killing veil love, should the heroes play dumb, but killing's no fun when the heroes are none.
Let this colony know in the name of the dead we're coming.
Bye bye world, dance upon the graves of the dead, upon your name.
Die white girls, bye bye world, dance upon the graves of the dead.

A FAVOR HOUSE ATLANTIC

Your eyes tell the stories of a day you wish you could recall the moments that once have,
Retract the footsteps that brought us to this favour, I wouldn't ask this of you.
Good eye, sniper, here I'll shoot, you run; the words you scribbled on the walls with the loss of friends you didn't have.
I'll call you when the time is right, are you in or are you out, for them all to know the end of us all?
Run quick, they're behind us, didn't think we'd ever make it this close to safety in one piece.
Now you want to kill me in the act of what could maybe save us from sleep and what we are.
Good eye, sniper, now I shoot, you run; the words you scribbled on the walls with the loss of friends you didn't have.
I'll call you when the time is right, are you in or are you out, for them all to know the end of us all?
Bye bye beautiful, don't bother to write, disturbed by your words and they're calling all cars; face step, let down, face step, step down.

THE LIGHT & THE GLASS

Slowly the pen touches paper in the guidance of the words that you write.
Memories roll in of the things you once did and who you had shared them with, is somebody thinking of you?
Did I bother telling you this, with the words that cross teeth and jump lips?
A poor choice of words in wanting to tell you anything, but words don't come with ease, they're forever my hurt.
Would it really matter if you were to count the days left with your hands?
Your focus secure and the loves you left well, smiles staged in photographs here until.
You left the light on, there's a chance I might have tripped, girl, you were there to hold on.
Ignoring the words of your obnoxious little brother, kill or be killed spilled the words from your mother.
I'll lay awake for a while, I'll leave the light on a while.
But you couldn't last a lifetime, caught between here and the days of it,
Carving her name across your arm with every wish, it's hit or miss her.
I told you so, I measured distance in lines departing the rest of my life, but you had better things to do, liar.
If you get put to sleep like an old dog, you're better off if you get put to sleep.
I've been cautious with the words I extend, allow this year before the world starts to end.
Your father's dead, he passed in his sleep, and I woke to the sounds of her crying, pray for us all.

21:13

In our sleep, there's more to this nightmare, will she beg for your mercy?
Slowly but sure, I'm hoping what comes in the absence of love.
At night, she'll kick and she'll fight, should they fill in his sight; at night, I'll worry from all, the end of us all.
Please mom, they're coming for me; please mom, run lock your door, they're coming for me.
When the clock reads twenty-one-thirteen, all work will stop and the ground will relieve.
Please mom, they're coming for me; please mom, run lock your door, they're coming for...
When I fall asleep, your face is all I see, dear mama I love; I fall asleep, your face is all I dream, dear mama I love.
In your frame you'll be this well, in the face you miss the most, you'll see them soon,
Stop, I bid you fair warning, stay up til you, when the memories occur of a life you haven't lived,
Stay still you will, and I've got a secret to hide.
In the words of father to son, thy kingdom come.
Those days we lost our dignity, the eager dare to stand, the ride home through victory, on the innocent they tread,
But IRO-Bot will never die.
