irresistible

    • all of your flaws are aligned with this mood of mine / cutting me to the bone, nothing left to leave behind
    • and i love the way you hurt me / it’s irresistible
    • you’re second hand smoke, second hand smoke / i breathe you in, but, honey, i don’t know what you’re doing to me / mon chéri, but the truth catches up with us eventually / try to say live, live and let live / but i’m no good, good at lip service / except when they’re yours, mi amor / i’m coming for you and i’m making war

american beauty / american psycho

    • alter boys, altered boys / we’re the things that love destroys / you, me, us, them / we’re just resurrection men / us, we were only meant / to make you live again / us, we were pity sex / nothing more and nothing less
    • i think i, i fell in love again / maybe i just took too much cough medicine / and i’m the best worst thing that hasn’t happened to you yet

centuries

    • mummified my teenage dreams / no, it’s nothing wrong with me / the kids are all wrong / the story’s all off / heavy metal broke my heart / come on, come on and let me in / the bruises on your thighs like my fingerprints / and this is supposed to match / the darkness that you felt / i never meant for you to fix yourself

the kids aren’t alright

    • fall to your knees, bring on the rapture / blessed be the boys time can’t capture / on film or between the sheets / i always fall from your window to the pitch-black streets

uma thurman

    • the blood, the blood, the blood of the lamb / is worth two lions, but here i am / and i slept in last night’s clothes and tomorrow’s dreams / but they’re not quite what they seem

jet pack blues

    • and i’m trying to find my peace of mind / behind these two white highway lines / when the city goes silent / the ringing in my ears gets violent

novocaine

    • i’m just a problem that doesn’t want to be solved / so could you please hold your applause? / take this sideshow and all its freaks / and turn it into the silver screen dream

fourth of july

    • i’ll be as honest as you let me / i miss your early morning company / if you get me / you are my favorite “what if” / you are my best “i’ll never know”

favorite record

    • you were the song stuck in my head / every song that i’ve ever loved / played again and again and again

immortals

    • i’m bad behavior, but i do it in the best way / i’ll be the watcher of the eternal flame / i’ll be the guard dog of all your fever dreams / oh, i am the sand in the bottom half of the hourglass
    • sometimes the only pay-off for having any faith / is when it’s tested again and again everyday / i’m still comparing your past to my future / it might be your wound but they’re my sutures

twin skeletons (hotel in nyc)

    • and i just need enough of you to dull the pain / just to get me through the night till we’re twins again / till we’re stripped down to our skeletons again / till we’re saints just swimming in our sins again
    • a birth and a death on the same day / and, honey, i only appeared so i can fade away / i wanna throw my hands in the air and scream / and i could just die laughing on your spiral of shame
