"Famous Last Words"

Now I know
That I can’t make you stay
But where’s your heart
But where’s your heart
But where’s your...

I know
There’s nothing I could say
To change that heart
To change that heart
To change...

So many
Bright lights been cast a shadow
But can I speak?
Well is it hard understanding
I’m incomplete
The life that’s so demanding
I get so weak
And all their souls are burning
I can’t speak

I am not afraid to keep on living
I am not afraid to walk this world alone
Honey if you stay, I’ll be forgiving
Nothing you can say can stop me going home

Can you see
My eyes are shining bright
Cause I’m out here
On the other side
Of the jet black
Broken mirror
And I’m so weak
Well is it hard understanding
I’m incomplete
And all their souls are burning
I get weak

I am not afraid to keep on living
I am not afraid to walk this world alone
Honey if you stay
I’ll be forgiven
Nothing you can say can stop me going

I am not afraid to keep on living
I am not afraid to walk this world alone
Honey if you stay
I’ll be forgiven
Nothing you can say can stop me going home

These bright lights are
glowing bright at me
These bright lights are
glowing bright at me
I said

I see you lying next to me
With words I thought I’d never speak
Awake and unfraid
Asleep or dead
[x4]

I am not afraid to keep on living
I am not afraid to walk this world alone
Honey if you stay
I'll be forgiven
Nothing you can say can stop me going home

" I'M NOT OKAY (I PROMISE)"

I'M NOT OKAY (I PROMISE)

Well if you wanted honesty, that's all you had to say
I never want to let you down or have you go
It's better off this way
For all the dirty looks
The photographs your boyfriend took
Remember when you broke your foot
From jumping out the second floor

I'm not okay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
You wear me out

What will it take to show you that it's not the life it seems
(I'm not okay)
I've told you time and time again
You sing the words but don't know what it means
To be a joke and look
Another line without a hook
I held you close as we both shook for the last time
Take a good hard look

I'm not okay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
You wear me out

Forget about the dirty looks
The photographs your boyfriend took
You said you'd read me like a book
But the pages are all torn and frayed

I'm okay
I'm okay
I'm okay, now
(I'm okay, now)

But you really need to listen to me
Because I'm telling you the truth
I mean this, I'm okay
(Trust me)

I'm not okay
I'm not okay
Well, I'm not okay
I'm not o-fucking-kay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
(Okay)

"I Don't Love You"

"I Don't Love You"

Where’d you go?
So never think I’d make you try to stay,
And maybe when we get there,
I’ll think enough,
To find another way,

When after all this time,
Is you still around,
You’re still the god falling nothing I have found,
So take your glass again,
And get out,
While you can,

Where’d you go?
And would you even turn to say,
I don’t love you,
Like I did yesterday,

Sometimes I cry so hard for pleading,
So sick and tired all the mean less meaning,
But baby when they knock you down and out,
It’s where you’ll wanna stay,

And after all the blood that you still have,
Another time I was chancing it all around,
So fix your eyes and get up,
Baby, get up,
While you can,

Where’d you go?
And would you even turn to say,
I don’t love you,
Like I did yesterday,

Where’d you go?
Would you have the guts to say,
I don’t love you,
Like I loved you,
Yesterday,
I couldn’t love you,
Like I loved you,
Yesterday,
I don’t love you,
Like I loved you yesterday.

"Helena"

"Helena"


Long ago

Just like the hearse you die to get in again
We are so far from you

Burning on just like a match you strike to incinerate
The lives of everyone you know
And what's the worst you take (worst you take)
from every heart you break (heart you break)
And like a blade you stain (blade you stain)
Well I've been holding on tonight

[Coro]
What's the worst that I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

Came a time
When every star fall brought you to tears again
We are the very hurt you sold
And what's the worst you take
from every heart you break
And like a blade you stain
Well I've been holding on tonight

[Coro]
What's the worst that I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
And if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight

Can you hear me?
Are you near me?
Can we pretend to leave and then
We'll meet again
When both our cars collide?

[Coro]
What's the worst that I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
And if you carry on this way
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight

So long and goodnight

"DEAD!"

"DEAD!"

And if your heart stops beating
I'll be here wondering
Did you get what you deserve?
The end
And if your life won't wait
Then your heart can't take this
Have

You heard the news that you're dead?
No one ever had much nice to say
I think they never liked you anyway
Oh take
Me from the hospital bed
Wouldn't it be grand?
It ain't exactly what you planned

And wouldn't it be great
If we were dead?
DEAD

Tongue-tied and oh so squeamish
You never fell in love
Did you get what you deserve?
The ending of your life
And if we get to heaven
I'll be here waiting babe
Did you get what you deserve?
The end

And if your life won't wait
Then your heart can't take this
Have

You heard the news that you're dead?
No one ever had much nice to say
I think they never liked you anyway
Oh take
Me from the hospital bed
Wouldn't it be grand
To take a pistol by the hand?

And wouldn't it be great
If we were dead?

And in my honest observation
During this operation
Found a complication in your heart
So long
'Cause noe you've got
Maybe just two weeks to live
Is that the most the both of you can give?

LA LA LA LA LA!
LA LA LA LA LA!
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA!

Oh, motherfucker if LIFE ain't just a joke
Then why are we laughing?
Then why am i dead?

DEAD.

"Cancer"

"Cancer"

I wonder
If you could get me a drink
Of water cause my lips are chapped and faded
comb my hair for me
help me gather all my things
and bury me
in all my favorite colors,
my sisters and my brothers, still,
I will not kiss you,
cause the hardest part of this,
is leaving you.

Turn away,
cause I'm awful just to see
cause all my hair's abandoned all my body,
all my agony,
know that I will never marry,
and baby I'm just dyin' from the chemo,
but counting down the days to go.

It's just a feeling
and I don't know
that if you say,
good-bye today,
I'd ask you to be true,
cause the hardest part of this,
is leaving you...

cause the hardest part of this,
is leaving you...
