Dog headed saint
On a faded tempra icon.
Skyscraper nightlight glows.
Living as a thief,
Dreaming as an angel.
Breathing what the subway blows.
So you can take what you want.
I'll still be here to amuse.
At our most dangerous
When there's nothing to lose.
Vicious tempered voice.
Gravel choaked sreaming.
No way that I'll talk you down.
Bourbon muddy thoughts.
Nosebleed explanations.
Gifted student with a teardrop crown.
So now were suck in a scene
We never thought would begin.
Now our nerves have teeth.
Feel 'em gnaw through your skin.
Hold on til daybreak.
Let's turn the volume down
And get through the night.
Synapses all burnt out.
Don't know how I'm going to make this one right.
If I let you down,
Never say there was no warning.
Quite a habit that I've made for myself.
Afraid you're what I want.
Sabotaged me asspirations.
Put your expectations back on the shelf.
So now we're back here again
With a fight we know well:
The drunken arguments,
White lies we both tell.
Hold on til daybreak
Let's turn the volume down
And get through the night.
Synapses all burnt out.
Don't know how I'm going to make this one right.
The decade flies.
Time will steal it all.
Good faith alibis.
Addicted lovers brawl.
Hold on til daybreak.
Let's turn the volume down
And get through the night.
Synapses all burnt out.
Don't know how I'm going to make this one right.
Maybe the hangovers stop.
Maybe the threats finally cease.
Some day we might both grow up
And leave each other in peace.
Hold on til daybreak.
Let's turn the volume down
And get through the night.
Synapses all burnt out.
Don't know how I'm going to make this one right.
Light on the eastern horizon,
Memories flicker
In the back of my mind.
Bare hand in the fire.
Wonder if I’ll ever leave you behind.
