Lifeless in my hotel room,
I feel the void surrounding.
Portals in the keyhole can't be reached
with her arms around me.
'Rot in hell,' she said
as the monsters pulled me from my bed.
There's no room for roses in the fate I've claimed.
Their wavering thorns cut through my embrace.
No room for roses in this fate I've claimed.
Rapt in phantasmagoria;
a mirage ablaze.
Enchanted potions ease the blisters of the fabled flames,
and I grow wings.
Walk the pathway through the garden
to the catacombs below.
I'm a warmth that's been discarded.
I am wrath without repose.
Just so you know

'We're not safe
amongst the everglades.
Vultures come to tear me
from the noose I hang.
There's no shame
to live this way.
The uninvited waste away.
The things they preach
don't mean much to me.
Enveloped by the greenery,
I pray that you won't be afraid
(Won't be afraid)
The sun is falling to the sea;
I'm begging you to follow me.
(But you know better)
From gallows swung,
the buzzards come.
The things they preach
don't mean much to me.
The words they speak
don't mean a god damn thing.
You curl your lips and a drag creeps in.
The ashes sway and they stain your skin.
You clear your mind then you change your tone.
You take my hand and I take you home.
My enemies
will not be saved."

I stagger in from the stygian ice
a quarter after midnight
and suppress myself from the seánce filling my view.
With the flies on the wall I lie mute
in cement just like before
and gaze as you twist to the pulse through the dance floor.
Do all the rooms in this place spin like this?
I just don't know how to behave,
when you're the creature that I crave.
My spirit's tethered to the bar
where I'll watch you from afar
always.
Your sundress flickers through the dark
as my demeanor falls apart.
Jazz lost in bedroom eyes.
Another drink illuminates your Danse Macabre.
Last call comes and you dissolve
in the floodlight,
but you'll be back again tomorrow
and these eyes will be with you.

No matter how hard you will pray,
the wolves won't go away.
Burning houses in the headlines
remind me that I bleed,
like the undead marching forward
for a cause they don't believe.
It's a comatose crusade;
a majority insane.
No matter how bright the sun ray,
the storms won't dissipate.
If you left it up to me,
I would euthanize this fantasy
and smuggle all the daydreams away.
But as far as I can see,
there is only abyss awaiting me
so i just close my eyes
and sing.

So the moonrise pulls me with the tides of the avenue,
and a perverse imp in the passenger seat.
You used to tie your hair back in this dark
and whisper eloquent stories.
But envy and I have jaded eyes
from all the nights we've intertwined.
Leave it to me;
I won't give up so easily.
How could this be
love lost to entropy?
Leave it to me;
I waited for you patiently.
I have lost who you are,
but i know where he lives,
so I'm driving my car...
To remedy distorted faces
from 7 years that you have wasted,
I sketch their portraits in the fall
and sit and stare all winter long.
As I'm cruising down the interstate,
I shake the twitch in my heartbeat.
It didn't do much for me anyway;
I keep a gun in my backseat.
Constellations steer in the rearview.
(I keep a gun in my backseat)
Swaying to static from the stereo.
(I keep a gun in my backseat)
I swear tonight's the night you'll hear me.
(I keep a gun in my backseat)
With two bullets in the magazine.
(I keep a gun in my backseat)
I have lost who you are,
but I'm outside his house
and I look to the stars.
