lyrics

The sky starts to dribble as I trip on my back
The moon drops some ash from its burning cigarette
Re-birthing the lost art of forming my face to glass
To show the world my newest thoughts
So they compare them with the last

So I based my soul on this cartoon that I found reading in my room
It only took one week to take over me
Just take a bow, life's for the bittersweet
If you have a complaint, why don't you just have a seat?
It’ll take a while
So take a number…

Your eyes stare and I stare inside of them
You walk over gesturing a light for your cigarette
Re-birthing the lost art of building my heart out of steel
So you won’t see it shatter when you tell me how you really feel

So I based my soul on this cartoon that I found reading in my room
It only took one week to take over me
We’re the ones who survive, we are the bittersweet
If you must know more, shut up and just have a seat
I'm going crazy
I am not what I seem
I loved you both
But you both never loved me
I gave you my life
But you just wanted my dreams

I'm going crazy, I am not what I seem
I'm going crazy, I am not what I seem
I'm going crazy, I am not what I seem

Take a bow, life's for the bittersweet
It only took three weeks for you to get over me
Take your time, don't be so surrounding

We were meant to survive
We are the bittersweet
It only took one week for that thought to take over me
Take a bow, take a number
