Alkaline Trio Album

There's a fire forming
not too far from here.
Out on the east coast maybe
it resides in you my dear.
We're worn out on all courtesy
we've made our curtain calls.
Like vampire bats deprived of blood
into the New York City night we crawl.
And you've got a funny way of showing
off your bathroom surgery.
You said you were just cooling down
from plans of leaving me.
There something i should tell you
for we may not have much time...
I've never met arms like yours.
And the stars at night are big and
bright deep in your eyes miss vincent.
You told me once i made you smile
we both know damn well i didn't.
I'm not much of a jester
but i'd test poison food for you your majesty.
You're royal blue.
I'm loyalty, my king of pain.
There's a hard rain falling,
flooding your attic it's clear.
It can't put out the fire
that resides in you my dear.
There's something i should tell you
for we may not have much time.
I've never seen scars like yours.

There’s a hope in my head
That’s been cut and bled
Dry as your bloodshot eyes
And there’s smoke in the air
And it’s soon to clear
Revealing our demise
There are some who say
That it’s a-ok
If it makes you feel alright
This is way too bad
Now you’re worse than sad
All locked up there inside

And I don’t know how you feel
But I’ll make you a deal
If u make it out alive
My shoulders and ears are yours my dear
I hope it comes as no surprise
You’ve been known to say that you’re a-ok
When you’re feeling sick inside
I just want you to know
I’ve got no place to go
Until the day you die

While you’re waiting
Be thankful for your fingers
I’ll be fading
With the colors of your pictures
I’m not crying wolf you whispered
I’m really dead this time
I’m really dead this time

There’s a hope in my head
That’s been cut and bled
Dry as your bloodshot eyes
And there’s smoke in the air
And it’s soon to clear
Revealing our demise
You’ve been known to say that you’re a-ok
When you’re feeling dead inside
I just want you to know
I’ve got no place to go
Until the day you die

While you’re waiting
Be thankful for your fingers
I’ll be fading
With the colors of your pictures
I’m not crying wolf you whispered
I’m really dead this time
I’m really dead this time

They locked you up
They threw away the key
Sutured your mouth shut
Murdered your family
Right before your eyes
What could you do
Right before your eyes
They took it all from you

Contemplating
You hanging from your ceiling
Can't help hating
You for having that feeling
I’m not joking when I tell you
I miss you all the time
I already miss you all the time

I got the scars to remind me
of watching clocks go round
worked myself through somedays
but it put me where i am

in another time in another place
loving might have been in place
but for now im finding myself
fighting standing on the rooftops screaming

hey world are you listening?
listen to me
Im here and Im willing
to begin again

Its another time its another place
we are making moral pace
but for now im finding myself fighting
standing on the doorsteps screaming

hey world are you listening?
listen to me
I'm here and I'm willing
to begin again

Hey world
im ready to listen
learn something new
I'm here and I'm willing
to get us all through

[No lyrics]

Shaking like a dog shittin' razorblades,
waking up next to nothing, after dreaming of you and me
I'm waking up all alone, waking up so relieved
While you're taking your time with apologies,
I'm making my plans for revenge.
Red eyes on orange horizons
If Columbus was wrong I'd drive straight off the edge.
I'd drive straight off the edge.

Taking your own life with boredom,
I'm taking my own life with wine -
it helps you to rule out the sorrow,
it helps me to empty my mind.
Making the most of a bad time
I'm smoking the brains from my head
Leaving the coal coloring the kettle black and orange and red
This kettle is seeing red.

I've got a big fat fuckin' bone to pick with you my darling.
In case you haven't heard I'm sick and tired of trying.
I wish you would take my radio to bathe with you,
plugged in and ready to fall.

Shaking like a dog shittin' razorblades,
waking up next to nothing after dreaming of you and me
I'm waking up all alone, waking up so relieved
while you're taking your time with apologies,
I'm planning out my revenge.
Red eyes on orange horizons
If Columbus was wrong I'd drive straight off the edge.
I'm seeing red.

I've got a big fat fuckin' bone to pick with you my darling.
In case you haven't heard I'm sick and tired of trying.
I wish you would take my radio to bathe with you,
plugged in and ready to fall.

Plugged in and ready to fall.
Plugged in and ready to fall.

Plugged in and ready to fall.

You came to me like a dream.
The kind that always leaves
Just as the best part starts.
It ends so abruptly
And leaves you stunned and naked
In your bedroom all alone.
It's kinda funny how something so soothing
Gets interrupted by the ring of a telephone.

And you broke me like the cigarrette
That I busted on the day I quit.
But now that I've been drinkin'
I'm out of smokes and I wish that I had it.
Woke up to my daily headache
And the realization that you are gone.
Oh my sweet darling happiness
You've been away from me all along.

One thing that I never said
I'm truely happy in my heart and in my head.
A lonely liver suspended in liquid.

You came to me like a dream
The kind that always leaves.
Just as the best part starts
It ends so abruptly.
And leaves you stunned and naked
In your bedroom all alone.
Kind of funny how something so soothing
Gets interrupted by the ring of a telephone.

One thing that I never said
I'm truely happy in my heart and in my head
A lonely liver suspended in liquid.
It's one thing that I never did was swallow.
Missing a case
Lacking a lid
My heart bleeds for what you never did.
Never Did.

It's one thing that I never said
I'm truely happy in my heart and in my head
A lonely liver suspended in liquid
It's one thing that I never did was swallow.
Missing a case
Lacking a lid
My heart bleeds for what you never did.
My heart bleeds for what you never did until now...
