1. THESE ARE THE SOUNDS OF PASSION

You never grasped the concept of steady feet


2. YOU ARE CORDIALLY INVITED

And tonight,
This will mean nothing.
It won't matter for we were never prepared for what life had planned for us.
We were so innocent,
We never expected this.
For you and I are passed our dancing days,
Our sinful eyes decorate the sky with flames.
This will end soon.
Just hold on tight,
It will be alright.
So dance your fucking heart out.
So we'll lock the doors,
And I'll put on the radio,
It still won't drown their screams.
The people and places we once loved are all dead.
Maybe if we pray,
We'll make it through this night with a kiss from a righteous angel that fell from the sky.
Eyes,
Look your last.
Arms,
Take your last embrace of me.
It will be hard to sleep tonight.
This will end.
Soon.
This will all end.


3. BEHOLD! A NIGHT TO REMEMBER

There is panic in the streets.
The women and children are screaming.
They're running with glass in their feet,
And it's getting harder and harder to see anything.
So we'll just sit here,
Waiting and watching the world illuminate like a new sun.
From here,
We see like god.
And it's a...
Burn,
Baby,
Burn.
Abandon all ships,
The end is coming.
We can't stop this from happening.
Love can't stop this from happening.
Love can't stop this from happening.
So we'll just sit here waiting and watching the world illuminate like a new sun.
From here,
We see like god.
And it's a fucking party.
We thought we could make it through hell and back.
Just you and I,
Two star-crossed lovers.
But we were so wrong.
Now who is going to save us?
Somebody save us.
Somebody.
We can't stop this from happening.


4. IT'S NOT SO BAD AT THE END OF THE WORLD

Who knew this is where we'd come to?
You always forgot to dot your I's,
And cross your T's.
Your writing was never legible,
But I know you meant good things.
We are a fucking abomination,
Love to love,
Look below at the city radiant with orange and smoke.
Was this because of us?
If so,
Let's celebrate with a glass of wine,
And a toast to those who made it out alive.
Why am I not surprised to see that we made it out alive?
Speak to me,
We can still be perfect like the charred city that held onto us for so long.
Tonight is a night to remember.
It's the start of the end of us.
Bleed baby,
Bleed for me.


5. THIRD TIME'S THE CHARM, RIGHT?

This is not where we're supposed to be.
Causing ears to bleed,
And hearts to ache,
Is this us improving?
Apparently my lips.
Apparently my lips are stale.
Cast me into the sky,
Just as you've done with everything you've ever loved.
Please,
Can we meet at the end of it all?
I'll bring the wine,
You bring the heartache.
Hand-in-hand we'll drown.
This must be love,
Because you're still not dead to me.
Just shut up and kiss me.
And we're both still standing.
Cast me into the sky.
Just dead to me.
We're fine I think.


6. JOSEPHINE, THE SINGER

I hope you never read this,
Because hurt comes early this year.
And I'll die if you stay here.
And you're screaming,
And only in you I confide.
I admire you.
I admire the sound.
I admire the strength you lack in your heart to pull through.
When the stars,
Have all burned out,
So will you.
We watched it explode before us,
Along with the people and places we took for granted.
So long love,
We'll crash and burn.
Murder this world,
Before this world murders you.
I've spent too much time letting you get away with derailing trains,
Like bombs to planes,
You are the reason for all this.
Murder she wrote,
Murder she sang,
Murder was all she could speak.
Sing your heart out.


7. CURIOSITY KILLED THE CAT

Thank you for your words,
They are truly needed on nights like these,
When lungs collapse and hearts become lodged in throats.
You make me choke.
You make me.
You make me choke,
Preventing the right words from escaping.
It was only a kiss,
One fucking kiss.
Where did he come from?
This was ours,
I have so much love to give and the "dead" need it more than your whore of a heart does.
We drove dead highways into oblivion,
Shooting every star with our eyes,
Write our names on the glass waiting for any kind of sign.
Can you feel it drag across your throat?
We're so in love.


8. GOODNIGHT, QUIET CITY

Pretty,
You are.
Enough to be in magazines.
A "front page fuck" for this month.
It won't matter now if the cameras come,
Because they won't recognize who they're taking pictures of,
There is so much blood,
There is so much.
We'll make history tonight,
And we'll take it down with us.
I'll dress you up.
You'll radiate for miles.
I love it how you always said:
"When I go down, I'm going down in style".
So here's your wish.
The engines of the brakes are shot,
It's funny cause even when you're dead I still do what you want.
We'll make history tonight,
And we'll take it down with us.
I never thought this would be how I die,
Next to you as dead as when you were alive.
I'll do it for love.
But what's love right?
One last kiss, One last cigarette, One last chance to look back.
One last kiss, One last cigarette, One last chance to look back and forget.
One last kiss, One last cigarette, One last chance to look back,
And regret this.
Goodnight,
Quiet city good night.
Goodnight pale princess,
Goodnight in shining armor,
Goodnight Romeo,
Lovesick Romeo.
