— the phoenix
- you are a brick tied to me that’s dragging me down / strike a match and i’ll burn you to the ground
ㅤ
— my songs know what you did in the dark
- i’ve got the scars from tomorrow and I wish you could see / that you’re the antidote to everything except for me
ㅤ
— alone together
- this is the road to ruin / and we’re starting at the end
- i’m outside the door, invite me in / so we can go back and play pretend
ㅤ
— where did the party go
- we were the kids who screamed “we weren’t the same, “ in sweaty rooms / now we’re doomed to organizing walk-in closets like tombs / silent film stars stuck in talking cinema life / so let’s fade away together one dream at a time
ㅤ
— just one yesterday
- i thought of angels choking on their halos / get them drunk on rose water / see how dirty i can get them / pulling out their fragile teeth / and clip their tiny wings / anything you say can and will be held against you / so only say my name
- letting people down is my thing, baby / find yourself a new gig / this town ain’t big enough for two of us
ㅤ
— the mighty fall
- your crooked love is just a pyramid scheme / and i’m dizzy on dreams / but if you ask me two’s a whole lot lonelier than one / baby, we should have left our love in the gutter where we found it / ‘cause you think, you think your only crime is that you got caught
ㅤ
— miss missing you
- sometimes before it gets better / the darkness gets bigger / the person that you’d take a bullet for / is behind the trigger
- so give me your filth / make it rough / let me let me trash your love / i will sing to you every day / if it will take away the pain / oh, and i’ve heard you got it, got it so bad / ‘cause I am the best you’ll never have
ㅤ
— death valley
- i wanna see your animal side / let it all out / i wanna see the dirt / under your skin / i need your broken promises
- we’re gonna die / it’s just a matter of time / hard times come / good times go / i’m either gone in an instant / or here till the bitter end
ㅤ
— young volcanoes
- in poisoned places / we are anti-venom / we’re the beginning of the end
ㅤ
— rat a tat
- i’m about to make your sweat roll backwards / and your heart beat in reverse / our guts can’t be reworked / as alone as a little white church in the middle of the desert getting burned / but i’ll take your heart served up two ways / i sing a bitter song / i’m the lonelier version of you / i just don’t know where it went wrong
ㅤ
— save rock and roll
- i need more dreams and less life / i need that dark in a little more light / i cried tears you’ll never see / so fuck you, you can go cry me an ocean / and leave me be / you are what you love, not who loves you / in a world full of the word “yes” / i’m here to scream “no”
- i will defend the faith going down swinging / i will save the songs that we can’t stop singing
