The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot

  • If it makes you less sad, I will die by your hand
  • Hope you find out what you are; already know what I am
  • And if it makes you less sad, we'll start talking again
  • You can tell me how vile I already know that I am
  • I'll grow old, start acting my age
  • It'll be a brand new day in a life that you hate
  • A crown of gold, a heart that's harder than stone
  • And it hurts a whole lot, but it's missed when it's gone
  • Call me a safe bet, I'm betting I'm not
  • I'm glad that you can forgive, only hoping as time goes, you can forget
  • If it makes you less sad, I'll move out of this state
  • You can keep to yourself, I'll keep out of your way
  • And if it makes you less sad, I'll take your pictures all down
  • Every picture you paint, I will paint myself out
  • It's cold as a tomb, and it's dark in your room
  • When I sneak to your bed to pour salt in your wounds
  • So call it quits, or get a grip
  • You say you wanted a solution; you just wanted to be missed
  • Call me a safe bet, I'm betting I'm not
  • I'm glad that you can forgive, only hoping as time goes, you can forget
  • So you can forget, you can forget
  • You are calm and reposed
  • Let your beauty unfold
  • Pale white, like the skin stretched over your bones
  • Spring keeps you ever close
  • You are second-hand smoke
  • You are so fragile and thin, standing trial for your sins
  • Holding on to yourself the best you can
  • You are the smell before rain
  • You are the blood in my veins
  • Call me a safe bet, I'm betting I'm not
  • I'm glad that you can forgive, only hoping as time goes, you can forget
