I crawl underground for comfort
Stay out of my mind to keep from dying
From dying

Sold my life to bring the rain
Maybe to wash me clean
Sold my soul to stop the pain
Hoping you'd set me free

All your fear
All your shame
You know that you can lay it all on me
You know that you can lay it all on me

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Could you forget then what I said
And how I died inside my head
We're starting over, not pretending that the past is dead

All the pain you feel you owe
All the times I should have known
Don't keep it inside, let it out and lay it all on me

Sold my life to bring the rain
Maybe to wash me clean
Sold my soul to stop the pain
Hoping you'd set me free

All your fear
All the pain
You know that you can lay it all on me
You can lay it all on me

^Sold My Soul...The Used.





And then there was one
With a sharpened grin
A home I was never meant to find
The wound was exposed and I fell in
A curse I was blessed with as a child
And I spent my life waiting for this
I knew I even bore the mark around my wrist
And I feel like this could be enough
And I feel like this could be the one, this could be the one

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Raise your palms to me
And let me show you where our lines collide
Graze the scalp and see
And show me where you think they placed that tracking device
It's so contagious
You can't escape from me, you can't run
They're hot on your trail
They're hunting you down for a lock of your hair
And they shot you on the space between your wings
They tied your limbs and made you sing
What makes you so evasive?
You won't escape from me
We've lost communication
These words will dissipate
I've scoured through this wasteland
You are a mystery
And I caught you right before you fled

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

If I could breathe in your air
Then I'd believe what you said
If I could see what you see
Then I would never have left

I picked apart all the clues that I found
I stood out, I stood out for you to show yourself
I picked apart all the clues that I found
I stood out, I stood out for you to show yourself
We can forget everything we've become
It's not far, it's not far until the oxygen
We can forget everything we've become
It's not far, it's not far
Show me what's in store
Locked beneath trap doors

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

For every plot unrevealed
You counted my scars and made me sing
Every note, every secret forced me back into lucidity
And you proved to us, you proved to me

If I could breathe in your air
Then I'd believe what you said
If I could see what you see
Then I would never have left

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Suffer the distance between
We'll douse our words in kerosene
Suffer, leave something for me
We'll burn them all until we make this true
We'll burn them all until we make this true
And I'll, I'll clip my wings and give it all to you
I'll clip my wings and give it all to you

Breathing Room Barricades...The Bled.

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

You can only move as fast as who's in front of you.

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

I traced your shape and counted the days and you just erased me
I hit the ground and I made no sound as your heels pierced me
I scarred my face to conquer my pride and you cocooned in your misery
I plucked you up from a bed of nails and you hung me for your salvation
Can I come down?
There's been a mistake
Can I come down?
Isn't this what you asked of me?
You lost faith
Blinding white
And just before my chest caved in, I climbed back down
I caught your scent but the wolves beat me to you
Stopped behind the place where we met
Found strands of your dress they were all that was left
I dug you up the night you died and this is what you asked me,"When will the sun overthrow the eclipse?"

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

I'm just waiting for this night to end
Leave me here, just go
As the dusk set in, as the sickness spread, I took one glance behind and you had disappeared
As the dusk set in, as the sickness spread, I took one glance behind and you had disappeared
Slipping right through my fingers
Gripping as tight as I can
Slipping right through my hands
We can't look back
They've got the searchlights on us
We can't look back
Stay close, you'll be alright
With shadows as my guide
I'm searching for the answer
I will be the one who breaks this constant midnight
Tossed to the swine
I make the climb from the abyss
Lost
Into the night
To the abyss
I trace your shape to memory
I traced your shape
Eraser

My Bitter Half...The Bled.

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Always safe to know what is good for taking blood stains from your clothes
Besides fire
Like I said before
When I bite your tongue out of your mouth you'll know, you'll know

Just what am I supposed to say?
And tell you why I turned out this way?
Don't make me, don't make me

If you love it, then let it go
And how I died, you'll never know
Just don't blame me, don't hate me

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

You'll never make it alone
It's easier to go
You've always been on your own
It's easier to go

Nothing safe feels real
Waiting here to die
Just hoping I reveal
There's something

Picking up my brains
You can tell your mom that men are all the same, the same

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Just what am I supposed to say?
And tell you why I turned out this way?
Don't make me, don't make me

If you love it, then let it go
And how I died, you'll never know
Just don't blame me, don't hate me

You'll never make it alone
It's easier to go
You've always been on your own
It's easier to go

You'll have to pay to watch me die
Then I'll love you more
You'll never make it alone
It's easier to go, it's easier to go

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Nowhere to go, I'm not leaving, I'm not going
I'm not kissing you goodbye, on my own
I'm nothing, just bleeding
I'm not kissing you goodbye

Nowhere to go, I'm not leaving, I'm not going
(You'll never make it alone)
(You've always been on your own)
I'm not kissing you goodbye, on my own
(You'll never make it alone)
I'm nothing, just bleeding
(You've always been on your own)
I'm not kissing you goodbye

Nowhere to go
(You'll never make it alone)
I'm not leaving, I'm not going
(You've always been on your own)
I'm not kissing you goodbye, on my own
(You'll never make it alone)
I'm nothing, just bleeding
(You've always been on your own)
I'm not kissing you goodbye

Men Are All The Same...The Used.

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

First start out with the wrong place at the right time
And that's where you'll find me
Next add in all the ****ed up **** I've done
But somehow kept inside me

'Cause while you were waiting for the sun I was turning away,
You try avoiding death by kneeling to pray
You don't know if it's true
But you heard there's a fire and I'm drowning in the rain

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

I throw my hands up to the sky just to watch them burn
There's no one there that you know
That's why I'm headed below

Once dreaming only burning wasn't quite
A part of the scenario
Just me and my diesease I knew it was a dream
It got too cold to let go

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

'Cause while you were waiting for the sun I was turning away
You try avoiding death by kneeling to pray
You don't know if it's true
But you heard there's a fire and I'm drowning in the rain

I throw my hands up to the sky just to watch them burn,
There's no-one there that you know,
(In heaven) That's why I'm headed below.
