~QUEEN OF HEARTS~
(the birthday massacre)
He puts the gun to her head
She tells him everything
Her voice is haunted like a dream
He sews the crack in his heart
Before he tears her apart
In the basement underneath
He says,
Never say no to me
He burns her high school pictures
And buries old dreams
He reads her diary once more
He cleans the tears from her eyes
He still can't stand to see her cry
Her face is broken and sore
He says,
Never say no to me

<font color="deeppink">So you like the evil and the ghosts
Demon spirits more than most
Little miss spookiness
Always laughing at death
How could
I ever forget
Halloween we met</font>
Am I not scary enough for you?

We're the kids who feel like dead ends
And I want to be known for my hits, not just my misses
I took a shot and didn't even come close
At trust and love and hope
And the poets are just kids who didn't make it
And never had it at all

There's a place off Ocean Avenue
Where I used to sit and talk with you
We were both 16 and it felt so right
Sleeping all day, staying up all night
Staying up all night
There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street
We would walk on the beach in our bare feet
We were both 18 and it felt so right
Sleeping all day, staying up all night
Staying up all night
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
There's a piece of you that's here with me
It's everywhere I go, it's everything I see
When I sleep, I dream and it gets me by
I can make believe that you're here tonight
That you're here tonight
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
I remember the look in your eyes
When I told you that this was goodbye
You were begging me not tonight
Not here, not now
We're looking up at the same night sky
And keep pretending the sun will not rise
Be together for one more night
Somewhere, somehow
If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away
