And then you said a little more about your dreams,
like it was my call (my call)
If you would only listen
Bypassed everything and went straight for the neck
(I start it)
Well, start it
(up nightly)
Dragged you out into the streets
before you buckle at your knees (buckle at your knees)
What's it feel like to be a ghost?
(Well, louder now, louder now)
So what's it feel like to be a ghost? Ahh
Are you up for, are you up for this?
(Well, are you up for, are you up for..)
Are you up for, are you up for this?
(Well, are you up for, are you up for..)
This is quick but not quite painless,
It sits perched on your arm.
Tacky and irrelevant (So what?)
A permanent reminder that I'm crushed
(I'll start it)
Well, start it
(up nightly)
Drag you out into those streets
before you buckle at your knees (buckle)
What's it feel like to be a ghost?
(Well, louder now, louder now)
So what's it feel like to be a ghost? Ahh
Are you up for, are you up for this?
(Well, are you up for, are you up for..)
Are you up for, are you up for this?
(Well, are you up for, are you up for..)
I said so, look closely
there might be something you'd like
What was it like?
(oh and I...)
looked so close, it's been months who knows if I,
will get this right.
(Oh and I..)
look so closely, there might be something you'd like
What was it like?
Oh and I...
So, what's it feel like to be a ghost?
(Well, louder now, louder now.)
So what's it feel like to be a ghost? Ahh
Are you up for, are you up for this?
(Well, are you up for, are you up for...)
Are you up for, are you up for this?
(Are you up for, are you up for...)

All our secrets they are daily trouble
Drip loose not around your head
Your spotless instincts are valid
We coexist
Got 26 days to work with (got 26 days)
We got 26 days to work with (it moves, it moves, it moves)
We'll see what all gets done
I'm an addict for dramatics
I confuse the two for love
You can tell me that you don't bend
Liar (liar)
If we're keeping score
We're all choir boys at best
(interested and arrogant)
Liar (liar)
If we're keeping score
We're all choir boys at best
(interested and arrogant)
Got 26 days to work with (got 26 days)
Then back on that island
That you swear by
Still barely can't afford
It's still a question of
How long will this hold?
Well is it any different
Now that we are home
Don't you go there not here, not now
(it moves, it moves, it moves)
Not here, not now
I'm an addict for dramatics
I confuse the two for love
You can tell me don't bend
Liar (liar)
If we're keeping score
We're all choir boys at best
(interested and arrogant)
Liar (liar)
If we're keeping score
Were all choir boys at best
(interested and arrogant)
We're all choir boys at best
Liar (liar)
If we're keeping score
We're all choir boys at best
(interested and arrogant)
Liar (liar)
If we're keeping score
We're all choir boys at best
(interested and arrogant)
Liar (liar)
Liar (liar)
It takes one to know one

You've got this new head filled up with smoke
I've got my veins all tangled close
To the jukebox bars you frequent
The safest place to hide
A long night spent with your most obvious weakness
You start shaking at the thought you are everything I want
'Cause you are everything I'm not
And we lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close (How close is close enough?)
We lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close
I just wanna break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way
My inarticulate store bought hangover hobby kit
In time, it says, "You, oh, you are so cool."
It says, "The shade across the bed, you are red, violent red."
You hollow out my hungry eyes
You hollow out my hungry eyes
And we lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close (How close is close enough?)
We lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close
I just wanna break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
Well I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way
I just wanna break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way (worst way)
I'm gonna make damn sure that you can't ever leave
No, you won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far from me
I'll make damn sure that you can't ever leave
No, you won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far...
I just wanna break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
Well I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way (worst way)
I'm gonna make damn sure
I just wanna break you down so badly
I just wanna break you down so badly (damn sure)
In the worst way (worst way)

So this is what we're up against?
So this is what we're up against?
Face it
This is what we're up, up against?
You're waiting
And every minute is a minute away
Face it
This is what we're up, up against?
You're waiting
And every minute is a minute away
Regrets always work
Excuses are better
A practical exchange
Or a trade for the truth
But you know it never held up (but you know it never held up)
Pretend that it's still good now
Face it
This is what we're up, up against?
You're waiting
And every minute is a minute away
Face it
This is what we're up, up against?
You're waiting
And every minute is a minute away
We're turning our clocks back
We're just never ourselves
So go with the flow
Just relax (just relax)
You never feel the jet lag
Unless you're trying to fit in
Face it
This is what we're up, up against?
You're waiting
And every minute is a minute away
Face it
This is what we're up, up against?
You're waiting
And every minute is a minute away
(every minute is a minute away)
Less is more except when it comes to mistakes
How long is long, that depends how long it takes
Less is more except when it comes to mistakes
How long is long, that depends how long it takes
Not years, not months
Not days, you blackout memories
Not years, not months
Not days, you blackout memories
Face it
This is what we're up, up against?
You're waiting
And every minute is a minute away
Face it
This is what we're up, up against?
You're waiting
And every minute is a minute away
(every minute is a minute away)
Every minute is a minute
And a minute and a minute away

Two selves twist and then collide;
You're coming off the cart (Am I coming?)
I'm coming through. (Am I coming?)
A torturous condition to a spin cycled submission,
You know, sometimes it just feels better to give in.
(Sometimes, it just feels better to give in.)
And it's all too familiar
And it happens all the time.
All the cards begin to stack up,
Twisting heartache into fine
Little pieces that avoid an awful crime,
But it's you I can't deny.
(You I can't deny.)
Dull heat rises from the sheets.
I'm both a patient boy,
Well, and a jealous man. (Am I coming?)
But double standard of suspicion
Is running deep, oh, my blue heaven,
Sometimes, it just feels better to give in.
(Sometimes, it just feels better to give in.)
And it's all too familiar
And it happens all the time.
All the cards begin to stack up,
Twisting heartache into fine
Little pieces that avoid an awful crime,
But it's you I can't deny.
(You I can't deny.)
We swing and we sway
As this tiny voice in
My head starts to sing
You're safe, child, you are safe.
(You're safe, child, you are safe.)
You're safe, child, you are safe.
We swing and we sway
As this tiny voice in
My head starts to sing
You're safe, child, you are safe.
You're safe, child, you are ..
safe (safe), safe (safe),
You are safe.
We swing and we sway
As this tiny voice in
My head starts to sing
You're safe, child, you are safe. (Am I coming?)
You're safe, child, you are safe. (Am I --)
Coming through?
Is this all too familiar?
Does it happen all the time?
I'm just asking you to hear me.
Could you please, just once, just hear me?
More then anything you wanted to be right.
Still it's you, you, it's you I can't deny.
(You I can't deny.)
It's you I can't deny.

I'll take with me every single luxury when I leave you could
Count on me for that and nothing more
(Count on me for that and nothing more)
The view from this side's not what
The view from this side's not what
I thought it'd be, promise something differently
Close our eyes and let go of the wheel
It's not the quantity that bothers me
(no it's not the quantity that bothers me)
No it's not the quality that bothers me..
It's in me, twenty-twenty surgery
Well, twenty-twenty surgery
For cheap dollar signs are up, for picture perfect point of view
Twenty-twenty surgery
Well, twenty-twenty surgery
For cheap, dollar signs are up, for picture perfect point of view
Well all young children listen, 'cause they've got so much to learn
(Turn it in, turn it in)
We'll get you home in time, to make the wretched be for free for being me ?
It's not the quantity that bothers me
(no it's not the quantity that bothers me)
No it's not the quality that bothers me..
It's in me, twenty-twenty surgery
Well, twenty-twenty surgery
For cheap dollar signs are up, for picture perfect point of view
Twenty-twenty surgery
Well, twenty-twenty surgery
For cheap, dollar signs are up, for picture perfect point of view
I do, I don't need you like you think
I do, I don't, I don't need you like you think
I do, I don't, I don't need you like you think
I do, you don't you just don't... leave me alone.
It's in me, twenty-twenty surgery
Well, twenty-twenty surgery
For cheap dollar signs are up, for picture perfect point of view
Twenty-twenty surgery
Well, twenty-twenty surgery
For cheap, dollar signs are up, for picture perfect point of view
You're so sensitive
I am, I am a machine.
You're so sensitive
I am, I am a machine.
You're so sensitive
I am, I am a machine.
You're so sensitive
I am, I am a machine.

That look was priceless, don't let me get carried away
I've seen it before, and it still suits you the same
You catch on quick! (You catch on quick!)
The cynics deaf, before they give the same reviews
(You catch on quick!) You catch on quick!
Oh oh, now this is where, where the party is
Are you coming home? (Well, are you coming home?)
Are you coming home? (Well, are you coming home?)
You had your chance! (You had your chance!)
Open arms reach out to soothing hands (arms reach out to soothing hands)
You had your chance! (You had your chance!)
Open arms reach out to soothing hands (arms reach out to soothing hands)
The abortion that you had left you clinically dead,
and made it all that much easier to lie
But that's nothing that I'm proud of (No, it's nothing that I'm proud of
I'm making an example out of you (This is phase one)
This is a preview (This is phase one)
Oh oh, now this is where, where the party is
Are you coming home? (Well, are you coming home?)
Are you coming home? (Well, are you coming home?)
You had your chance! (You had your chance!)
Open arms reach out to soothing hands (arms reach out to soothing hands)
You had your chance! (You had your chance!)
Open arms reach out to soothing hands (arms reach out to soothing hands)
Don't act like you're the first one
I treat it like disease
Sure it's rough around the edges
It's the only thing you see
Don't act like you can't see me
Darling, coming
Don't act like you don't see me
Darling, coming
Don't act like you don't see me
Darling, coming
Don't act like you don't see me
Coming..
You had your chance! (You had your chance!)
Open arms reach out to soothing hands (arms reach out to soothing hands)
You had your chance! (You had your chance!)
Open arms reach out to soothing hands (arms reach out to soothing hands)
You had your chance! (You had your chance!)
You had your chance! (You had your chance!)

Despondent, distracted,
You're vicious and romantic;
These are a few of my favorite things.
All of those flavors and
This is what you choose:
Past the blues, past the blues,
And on to something new,
Something real, make it timeless,
An act of God and nothing else will be accepted.
So if you're calling me out,
Then count me out.
Yeah, we're stubborn and melodramatic,
A real class act.
You see, I know a few of your favorite things.
Five in the morning and all comes out pouring,
Love, out the same way in.
Something real, make it timeless,
An act of God and nothing else will be accepted.
Now if you're calling me out,
Then count me out.
Something real, make it timeless,
An act of God and nothing else will be accepted.
I said real, make it timeless,
An act of God and nothing else will be accepted.
Now if you're calling me out,
Then count me out.
Mm, mm, mm, mm.
Mm, mm, mmmm.

The whole truth and nothing but the truth
Stop me if you've heard this one before
The whole truth is nothing but a good excuse
So long as you don't torture me with my past
Let's be honest; a secret silenced is a secret safe
Miami, Miami, Miami
Well every hour on the hour
(every hour on the hour)
You have to, you just have to trust me
Whoever I was then,
I can't ever be again
Reminders, they are not reluctant
So stop me if you've heard this one before
Sideways blinders,
I can't find a way (around a way) around..
Miami, Miami, Miami
Well every hour on the hour
You have to, you just have to trust me
Whoever I was then,
I can't ever be again
The faith you found I never felt (never felt)
The terror held in wedding bells
And comfort in there's no one else
The truth be told I'm never gonna know
Miami Miami Miami
Well every hour on the hour (every hour on the hour)
Unhand me, God damn me, Miami
Whoever I was then I can't ever be again
The terror held in wedding bells
The comfort in there's no one else
The truth be told I'm never gonna know
The terror held in wedding bells
The comfort in there's no one else
The truth be told I'm never gonna know

Well there's been an accident (calm down)
There's been an accident, breath
In and out calm down (in and out calm down)
Breath in and out calm down (in and out calm...)
We can't go back
Can't go back
Can't go back, we can't...
We can't go back
Can't go back
Can't go back, we can't...
(Breath in and out calm down)
Well would you do it again, again
And count backwards from ten
(Look I don't make those mistakes no more)
You took the path that's where I could see straight through you
Just concentrate, good try
But would you do it again, again
We can't go back
Can't go back
Can't go back, we can't...
We can't go back
Can't go back
Can't go back, we can't...
We can't go back
Can't go back
Can't go back, we can't...
We can't go back
Can't go back
(concentrate, calculate, compensate, contemplate)
(concentrate, calculate, don't be late)
I try (it's just...)
I try (it's just...)
I try (it's just...)
I try (it's just...)
I tried (it's just...)
I try (it's just...)
I tried (it's just...)
I try (it's just...)
We can't go back
Can't go back
Can't go back, we can't...
We can't go back
Can't go back
Can't go back, we can't...
We can't go back
Can't go back
Can't go back, we can't...
(Feels like anything anything, anything anything)
We can't go back

The first degree was a riot
You were making sure
My lesson's leaned
I'm not ashamed but i'm trying
I've come to expect the standards you have set...
Tell me just how dangerous is second best
You've Settled for less and i'm sure you'll settle again
You'll settle for less
There's no stopping me
I'm gutting you out
There's no stopping this...
The closer i look is the further that you get
Already stubborn skin thickens
In a valiant attempt to understand
So understand.
There's no stopping this
I'm gutting you out
There's no stopping me
I got tired of waiting, waiting, and i'm still waiting...
When the guilt subsides the night begins...
When the guilt subsides
The night begins.
Came as a gift from a good friend
That disapproves
But understands
That you represent
And actively encourage
All of my worst habits
They all are proof
That we're both capable of the most terrible things
"Don't test me"
There's no stopping this
I'm gutting you out
I know it's not what you deserve.
Still, there's no stopping me...
I'm gutting you out.

Well you are worth more than the man I am
Sad and in love, hands trembled of life that we would have stolen
Anyways, stolen
Well, anyway
To Brooklyn, I'm homebound
A trap to the east
Marking miles of martyrs
With better men, with better men than me
And I wanted to tell you, I just didn't know
Genuine and unprepared
If you, you see something then you should say something
If you, you see something could you just say something
Say something
Something awful itches in these walls
I found a subtle genius in that white, hot hatred of yours
Misuse is practice, perfected and played
In time I'm gonna get what's mine
To Brooklyn, I'm homebound
A trap to the east
Marking miles of martyrs
With better men, with better men than me
And I wanted to tell you, I just didn't know how
Genuine and unprepared
If you, you see something then you should say something
If you, you see something could you just say something
Say something
Oh, we are going, we're going, we're...
Once, twice, three times, sold!
You're better off believing everything you heard was true
You're better off believing everything you heard was
You're better off believing everything you heard was true
You're better off believing everything you heard was
Genuine and unprepared
If you, you see something then you should say something
If you, you see something could you just say something
Genuine and unprepared
If you, you see something then you should say something
If you, you see something could you just say something
You say something
Say something

(Yeah)
Well, we assure you the procedure is safe and routine
Dramamine sans haunting dreams (Dramamine sends haunting dreams)
With an incessant drip, sinus pockets like a faucet
'cause you have to work hard for (yeah you work hard for what you've got)
yeah you have to work hard for... (yeah you work hard for what you've got)
Yeah you worked and now you're...
Local anesthesia, teases, local anesthesia, teases,
local anesthesia, teases, local anesthesia
Sleep oh! sleep oh! sleep oh!
Well breathe the sweet air through your nose
Sleep oh! sleep oh! sleep oh!
Well breathe the sweet air through your nose
Something practiced is something perfect
I'm selfishly slimming because
The season's got us eating less and less (less and less)
You walk the full length of Manhattan in no time flat
While your soles they were stuck sticking to evry step
Yeah you work hard for what you've got
Yeah you work hard for what you've got
Yeah you worked and now you're...
Local anesthesia, teases, local anesthesia, teases,
local anesthesia, teases, local anesthesia
Sleep oh! sleep oh! sleep oh!
Well breathe the sweet air through your nose
Sleep oh! sleep oh! sleep oh!
Well breathe the sweet air through your nose
Local anesthesia, teases, local anesthesia, teases,

Sleep Oh! sleep oh! Sleep oh!
Well breathe the sweet air through your nose
