A.F.I. Album

This is what I brought you, this you can keep
This is what I brought, you may forget me
I promise to depart, just promise one thing
Kiss my eyes, and lay me to sleep

This is what I brought you, this you can keep
This is what I brought, you may forget me
I promise you my heart, just promise to sing
Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep
Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep

This is what I thought of, thought you’d need me
This is what I thought, so think me naive
I promise you a heart, you promise to be
Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep
Kiss my eyes and lay me to sleep
Kiss my eyes and lay me to… sleep.

So fill in the cracks now
You Better, you better
It Seems I have gone
I walk far I walk far away

Connect the world threefold (or pretty far)
I hope your batteratized.
How could you run
I've died I died slowly

I escape
I remain
The one you blame at night

Demonized
Purified
Justified
As you let yourself go!

So now you want these screams
Whats left of me. (Dont! speak!)
Love these screams like I do

Well the infinite times come
Just smile and all faith is gone
Guess I was the one to
To sacrifice everything

It's going to fast now
I c'can I cannot hold on
But at this place
Who'd want , who'd want to

I escape
I remain
The one you blame at night

Demonized
Purified
Justified
As you let yourself show!

So now you want these screams
Whats left of me. (Dont! speak!)
Love these screams like I do

Don't ever speak my name

Don't ever speak my name again
Don't ever speak it
Don't ever speak my name again
Don't speak
Don't speak

DON'T
SPEAK
MY
NAME!
DONT SPEAK MY NAME!

So now you want these screams
Whats left of me. (Dont! speak!)
Love these screams like I do

Hey Miss Murder can I?
Hey Miss Murder can I?
Make beauty stay if I,
take my life?

whoa-oh-ohh

With just a look they shook
And heavens bowed before him.
Simply a look can break your heart.
The stars that pierce the sky;
He left them all behind.
We抮e left to wonder why
He left us all behind.

Hey Miss Murder can I?
Hey Miss Murder can I?
Make beauty stay if I,
take my life?
whoa-oh-ohh
(ohh)

Dreams of his crash won抰 pass
Or how they all adored him.
Beauty will last when spiraled down.
The stars that mystify
He left them all behind.
And how his children cry
He left us all behind.

Hey Miss Murder can I?
Hey Miss Murder can I?
Make beauty stay if I,
take my life?
whoa-oh-ohh

What's the rift that twists
within this furthest mystery?
I would gladly bet my life upon it.
At the cost of love your ray of light
Will fizzle out without hope.
When the empty sand just flowing through our empty skin,
And we're searching for what we were promised.
Reaching for the cold and rain we never let go,
They won't ever let us blow our filthy hands apart.

Hey Miss Murder can I?
Hey Miss Murder can I?
Make beauty stay if I,
take my life?
whoa-oh-ohh

Hey Miss Murder can I?
Hey Miss Murder can I?
Make beauty stay if I,
take my life?
whoa-oh-ohh

Listen when I say, when I say it’s real
Real life goes undefined
Why must you be so miserable?
Everything you take, makes it more unreal
Real lies are undefined, how can this be so miserable?

Under the summer rain… I burned away…
Under the summer rain, Oh… You turned away…

Listen, I can make, make the sound a feel
Feel fine, I kiss the lies…Why must they be so kissable?
Listen as I break, break the former seal
For the sight shines suicide, when will we be invisible?

Under the summer rain… I burned away
Under the summer rain, Oh… We burned away
Under the summer rain… I burned away
Under the summer rain… You turned away

This is the fall; this is the long way down
And our lives look smaller now, and our lives look so small
This is the fall; this is the long way down
And our lives look smaller now, and our lives look so small…

Under the summer rain… I burned away
Under the summer rain… We burned away

Under the summer rain… I burned away
Under the summer rain… We burned away

Under the summer rain… I burned away
Under the summer rain… You turned, away…

Forever waiting for disaster,
What david does not bendge and master,
We play it, too.
As twisted placement begs for water.
Swimming david.
Drowning in sorrow.

Scream with me.

I crawl across this cracked expansion,
I'll be buried, soon.
Burn in the sand with pure intentions.
Right beside me, someone to follow.

For a change, ill refrain,
From hiding all of me from you.
(here's my lullaby.)
Pray for rain, lose your name.
And watch all your dreams fall through.
(hush now don't you cry.)

I swore to bring my knees come crashing,
When you bury, me.
Today the smoke ran through our mask and.
Hold me, you may, drown me, tomorrow.

For a change, ill refrain,
From hiding all of me from you.
(here's my lullaby.)
Pray for rain, lose your name.
And watch all your dreams fall through.
(hush now)

For a change, ill refrain,
From hiding all of me from you.

Pray for rain, lose your name.
And watch all your dreams fall through.

Here's my lullaby.
Hush now don't you cry.

Come down.
Come down cold with us.
With me.

I flee to decemberunderground.
As you exhale, I breathe in and sink into,
The water underground,
And I grow pale without you.

Warn you once to turn away
Here it's December, everyday
Press your lips to the sculptures
And surely you'll stay (Love like winter…)
Fire, sugar, and ice…I am made, I am made

It's in the blood, it's in the blood
I met my love, before I was born
He wanted love, I taste the blood
He bit my lip, and drank my warmth
From years before, from years before

She attails the mirror lace,
I barely dreamt her, yesterday (yesterday…)
With the lines in the mirror, through the lipstick trace
She said, “It seems you're somewhere, far away…
To his place”

It's in the blood, it's in the blood
I met my love, before I was born
She wanted love, I taste the blood
She bit my lip, and drank my warmth
From years before, from years before

Love like winter… Oh… Oh…
Love like winter… Winter… 3…4…

It's in the blood, it's in the blood
I met my love, before I was born
He wanted love, I taste the blood
He bit my lip, and drank my warmth
From years before, from years before

A wrapped and untold voice,
You lied to the genocide.
(echoing) I am flawless.

All my fears and I,
Just left, in suicide.
(echoing) I am going.

Were you holding hands when,
Am I perfect?

Oh what would be alright?
Just use me.
Just use me.
The futures bright, without me.
Spend some time, walk on the line.

The world has unified,
All weight and undefined.
(echoing) I am flawless.

When days burn in light,
Bleed 'till,
'till confesses destroy you.
(echoing) I am going.

Were you holding hands when,
Am I A spec?

Oh what would be alright?
Just use me.
Just use me.
The futures bright, without me.
Spend some time, walk on the line.
Spend some time, walk on the line.

So stay, sweetly numb,
Remain, lifeless love.
Stay sweetly numb.
Maintain, lifeless love.

Stay sweetly numb.
Remain lifeless love.

Oh what would be alright?
Just use me.
Just use me.
The futures bright, without me.
Spend some time, walk on the line.
Spend some time, walk on the line.

Walk on it!

One at a time,
Conscience becomes so real
One at a time,
Heart attacks are concealed
I can see that I
Lose the joys of life
one at a time
Suicides are revealed
You will see that I lost another life
But do I?

I'll let you tear it up
If you don't wake me up
But if you tear it,
We can't repair it
So please don't wake me till someone cares
now no one cares

One at a time
I watch them all forget
One at a time
I'm lost in ??
It's the place that I
I forget my life
But do I?

I'll let you tear it up
If you don't wake me up
But if you tear it,
We can't repair it
So please don't wake me till someone cares
now no one cares

With the flag behind me
Put out the fire inside me
With the flag behind me
Put out the fire inside me

I'll let you tear it up...
Oh Oh Oh
I'll let you break it up
Oh Oh Oh
If you don't wake me up
Oh Oh Oh
But if you tear it
Oh Oh Oh
We can't repair it
Oh Oh Oh
So please don't wake me
Oh Oh Oh
Till someone cares,
Now no one cares...cares

I'll let you tear it up
If you don't wake me up
Cause it's apparent
That you don't care and
It's nothing to me
Cause I don't care
Now no one cares

Watch the stars,
Turn you to nothing
Now blush and smile as they whisk you away.

Bite your lips a bit more
I'll swallow your fear
I will show you how
All the bite marks inpressed
Are need to be here,
I need to sing

City lights, like rain,
Dance and Explode.
Fall apart, then you thought
"What if I'm, not dead?"
Kiss and Control.
All of our broken hearts..

Velvet runs,
Wrists while I'm straining.
He blushed and smiled,
And he said you would stay.

One more time to my breath,
I'll feed you this sky.
I will show you how.
Steal the grammar from death
And before you die,
Then you should sing.

City lights, like rain,
Dance and Explode.
Fall apart, then you thought,
"What if I'm, not dead?"
Kiss and Control.
All of our broken hearts..

Hearts
Our Hearts

"Now I wanna die like movie stars", you said.
As you jumped from the height of our cutting room floor.
While above us glowing, exploding, our dreams burst forth in light and death.
Hold me and tell me we'll burn like stars, we'll burn as we fall,
Watch as city lights dance towards us

City lights, like rain,
Dance and Explode.
Fall apart, the pain of old lights,
"What if I'm, not dead?"
Kiss and Control.
Fall apart, the pain of our lives, has pain.
Dance and Explode.
City lights like rain..City lights so caress me.
Kiss and Control

All of our, broken hearts.

Oh.(infamous davey "oh")
Five A.M. on the bathroom floor from the night before.
Do you find me dreadful?
What a shame such a sad disgrace,
Such a pretty face,
But she's not regretful.

Am I beautiful?
Am I useable?

It's killing time again.
Put on your face and let's pretend,
These killing lights won't kill us all again.

Three A.M. on the city street,
When the air is sweet,
I've had my mouthful.
But it seems that i'm tired of screams
Such a pretty face up in will look dreadful.

Am I beautiful?
Am I useable?

It's killing time again.
Put on your face and let's pretend,
These killing lights won't kill us all again.

It's killing time again.
Cover your face and we'll pretend,
These killing lights can't kill us all again.

You seem to always remember,
We never forget a face.

When we cut cut cut cut cut cut cut you up,
Cut cut cut cut cut they remember.

Cut cut cut cut cut cut cut you up.
Cut you uppppppppp.

It's killing time again.
Put on your face and let's pretend,
These killing lights won't kill us all again.

It's killing time again.
Cover your face and we'll pretend,
These killing lights can't kill us all again.

All again.
All again.
It's time again.
It's killing time...

Bring your secrets to me
Just give me your hands
And I'll let you feel the wounds
They bleed me…

If you believe in me, how can I be dissolving?
If you believe me, I'd tell you everything

Do you fall through?
Every time, now…
As I fall… Every time now…
Do you want to, fall into me?
Fall into me, fall into me…

(Florence?) can you hear me?
Press me to your lips, and suck the voice right out
Completely… of me…

If you keep killing me, how can I keep absolving,
Your sins into me? Begin, poisoning…

Do you fall through?
Every time, now…
As I fall… Every time now…
Do you want to, fall into me?
Fall into me, fall into me…

Time, time, time… We're not waiting
Time, time, time… We're no one…
(I know… I know…)

Do you fall through?
Every time, now…
As I fall… Every time now…
Do you want to, fall into me?
Do you fall, too?

Every time, now…
As I fall… Every time now…
Do you want to, fall into me?
Fall into me…

We are no one…
We are no one…
We aren't one…
We are no one…
We are…

We are no one…
We are no one…
We are no one…
We are no one…
We are… (x 3)

Walked into hourly made, horrible sounds
I can still hear them today… (Faintly they seem…)
Beautiful now, though they are past my love

Still each time I always meant,
Every word, every one.
Though in time, they finally bent
Every word, every one, every word…

I will wait for you
She said, endlessly
I will wake for you
So spoke, misery

I would turn to you but found, my empty home
The radio told me to stay, (as it burned bright) I sang alone
“You will not vex my love…”

Still each time, I always meant
Every word, every one
Though in time, they finally bent
Every word, every one, every word

I will wait for you
She said, endlessly
I will wake for you
So spoke, misery

Oh…
I have been waiting for you…
Bite in as you talk me, soon
I have come through and leave you
Alive and in love…

I will wait for you…
I will wake for you…
I will wait for you…

I will wait…

(I will wait…)
I will wake for you
(I will wait…)
She said, (She said…) endlessly


I will wake for you
(I will wait…)
So spoke, misery
I will wait for you, wait for you…
Endlessly
I will wait for you
So spoke, so spoke
Misery

And I will bite
Straight through…
As I wait for you
Dear…Endlessly

[from "MySpace Records Vol. 1" Compilation]

What once did exist, now is meaningless
And doesn't it seem funny, how soon you did forget
([ECHO:] how soon you did forget)
All the words have now lost their weight
But I remember, I remember

Desperation, devastation
All I truly know (all that I know...)
Is isolation
Self damnation
All life that I'd own
WAS SHED AND WORTHLESS NOW!

What I knew was wrong
One who lived is gone
Guess it was just an echo
When you would sing my song
(ECHO: you would sing my song)
All the notes you'd forgotten now
You left abandoned, I remember

Desperation, devastation
All I truly know (all that I know...)
Is isolation
Self Damnation
All life that I'd own
WAS SHED AND WORTHLESS NOW!

I can
hate myself
more...
more than anyone

WILL YOU JOIN ME!?

I KNOW YOU KNOW THAT THIS
TORTURES ME!
HAVE I CREATED THE SUFFERING!?
SHOW ME!

Or do you happily cut, further in?
to sever what's left inside, that binds me.

Now all i feel is

Desperation, devastation
All I truly know (all that I know...)
Is isolation
Self damnation
All life that I'd own
WAS SHED AND WORTHLESS NOW!

Desperation, devastation
All I truly know (all that I know...)
Is isolation
Self damnation
All life that I'd own
WAS SHED AND WORTHLESS, WORTHLESS NOW!

God money I'll do anything for you.
God money just tell me what you want me to.
God money nail me up against the wall.
God money don't want everything he wants it all.

Bridge:
No you can't take it
No you can't take it
No you can't take that away from me
No you can't take it
No you can't take it
No you can't take that away from me

Chorus:
Head like a hole.
Black as your soul.
I'd rather die than give you control.
Head like a hole.
Black as your soul.
I'd rather die than give you control.

Bow down before the one you serve.
You're going to get what you deserve.
Bow down before the one you serve.
You're going to get what you deserve.

God money's not looking for the cure.
God money's not concerned ABOUT the sick amongst the pure.
God money let's go dancing on the backs of the bruised.
God money's not one to choose

(bridge)

(Bow down before the one you serve) x4
