1. CELEBRITY SKIN

Oh, make me over
I'm all I want to be
A walking study
In demonology

Hey... So glad you could make it
Yeah... Now you really made it
Hey... So glad you could make it now

Oh, look at my face
My name is might have been
My name is never was
My name's forgotten

Hey... So glad you could make it
Yeah... Now you really made it
Hey... There's only us left now

When I wake up
In my makeup
It's too early for that dress
Wilted and fated
Somewhere in Hollywood
I'm glad, I came here
With your pound of flesh
No second billing
’Cause you're a star now
Oh, Cinderella
They aren't sluts like you
Beautiful garbage
Beautiful dresses
Can you stand up
Or will you just fall down

You better watch out
Oh, what you wish for
It better be worth it
So much to die for

Hey... So glad you could make it
Yeah... Now you really made it
Hey... There's only us left now

When I wake up
In my makeup
Have you ever felt
So used up as this ?
It's all so sugarless
Hooker, waitress
Model, actress
Oh, just go nameless
Honeysuckle
She's full of poison
She oblitared
Everything she kissed
Now she's fading
Somewhere in Hollywood
I'm glad, I came here
With your pound of flesh

You want a part of me
Well, I'm nor selling cheap
No, I'm not selling cheap

2. AWFUL

Swing low, sweet cherry, make it awful
It’s your life, it’s your party, it’s so awful
Let’s start a fire, let’s have a riot! Yeah it’s awful
It was punk, yeah, it was perfect now it’s awful

They know how to break all the girls like you
And they rob the souls of the girls like you
And they break the hearts of the girls

Swing low, cherry cherry , yeah it’s awful
He’s drunk, he tastes like candy, he’s so beautiful
He’s so deep like dirty water, God he’s awful
You’re lost, oh, where’s your daddy, it’s so awful

And they royalty rate all girls like you
And they sell it out to the girls like you
To incorporate little girls

Hey, run away with the light
Run away it’s divine
Let’s run away, yeah tonight
And we’ll steal the light of the world

Swing low, sweet cherry, yeah it’s awful
You’re ripe for the picking, it’s so awful
You’ve got your youth, don’t waste your money, yeah it’s awful
I was punk! Now I’m just stupid! I’m so awful

Oh, just shut up you’re only 16
Oh, just shut up you’re only 16

If the world is so wrong, yeah you can break them all with one song
If the world is so wrong, yeah you can take it all with one song

Swing low, sweet cherry , make it awful
They bought it all, just build a new one, make it beautiful... yeah

3. HIT SO HARD

Put me up above the boy
The one I love I should destroy
My sweet tooth has burned a hole
Forget about it all

He hit so hard
I saw stars
He hit so hard
I saw God

He’s cold give him a candy coat
He can’t swim but he can float
One by one they all fall down
I look at him and drown

He hit so hard
I saw stars
He hit so hard
I saw God
I saw God

Just one big shining flash
Your secret's safe tonight
So much, so much to lose
So glad that we're alive

He’s so candy my downfall
Melts in my mouth ’til he’s nothing at all
This keeps me, I can’t sleep
He rages to be true

He hit so hard
I saw stars
He hit so hard
I saw God

4. MALIBU

Crash and burn
All the stars explode tonight
How'd you get so desperate
How'd you stay alive
Help me please
Burn the sorrow from your eyes
Oh, come on be alive again
Don't lay down and die

Hey, hey, you know what to do
Oh, baby drive away to Malibu

Get well soon
Please don't go any higher
How are you so burnt
When you're barely on fire
Cry to the angels
I'm gonna rescue you
I'm gonna set you free tonight, baby
Pour over me

Hey, hey, you know what to do
Oh, baby fly away to Malibu

Cry to the angels and let them swallow you
Go and part the sea, yeah, in Malibu

And the sun goes down, I watch you slip away
And the sun goes down, I walk into the waves
And the sun goes down, I watch you slip away
And I walk...

And I knew love would tear you apart
Oh, and I knew the darkest secret of your heart

I'm gonna follow you
Oh, baby fly away, yeah, to Malibu
Oceans of angels, oceans of stars
Down by the sea is where you drown your scars

...I can't be near you, the light just radiates
I can't be near you, the light just radiates...

5. REASONS TO BE BEAUTIFUL

Love hangs herself
With the bedsheets in her cell
Threw myself on fires for you
Ten good reasons to stay alive
Ten good reasons that I can’t find

Oh, give me a reason to be beautiful
So sick in his body, so sick in his soul
Oh, give me one reason to be beautiful
Oh, and everything I am

Love hates you
I live my life in ruins for you
And for all your secrets kept
I squashed the blossom
And the blossom’s dead

Oh, give me a reason to be beautiful
So sick in his body, so sick in his soul
Oh, and I will make myself so beautiful
Oh, and everything I am

Miles and miles of perfect skin
I swear I do, I fit right in
My love burns through everything
I cannot breathe

Miles and miles of perfect sin
I swear, I said, I fit right in
I fit right in your perfect skin
I cannot breathe

Hey, baby, take it all the way... down
Hey, baby, taste me anyway
Oh, you were born
So pretty oh my summer babe
We’ll never know...
And fading like a rose

Give me a reason to be beautiful
So sick in his body, so sick in his soul
I’ll give you my body, just sell me your soul
Oh, and everything I am will be bought and sold
Oh, and everything I am will turn hard and cold

And they say in the end
You’ll get bitter just like them
And they steal your heart away
When the fire goes out you better learn to fake
It’s better to rise than fade away...

Hey you were right
Named a star for your eyes
Did you freeze? Did you weep?
Turn to gold, baby, sleep
Hey honey mine
I was there all the time
And I weep at your feet
And it rains and rains

6. DYING

Ever seen a cripple dance?
Bring your money
Baby, now's your chance
Your love's like cyanide

I am so dumb
Just beam me up
I had it all forever
I've had enough

Remember, you promised me
I'm dying, I'm dying please
I want to, I need to be
Under your skin

Our love is quicksand
So easy to drown
They steal the gravity out
From moving ground

Remember, you promised me
I'm dying, I'm dying please
I want to, I need to be
Under your skin

And now I understand
You leave with everything
You leave with everything I am
Memories

And now I know that love is dead
You've come to bury me
There's nothing left here to pretend
Anyways

Remember, you promised me
I'm dying, I'm dying please
I want to, I need to be
Under your skin

I'm dying, I'm dying please
I'm dying, I'm dying please
I'm dying, I'm dying please
Under your skin
Under your skin

7. USE ONCE AND DESTROY

It's the emptiness that follows you down
It's the ache inside when it all burns out
It's poisonous, it muscles, it aches
It's everything you had when it breaks

It's the emptiness that’s all you have left
Too terrified of your frozen breath
It's a bitter mouth, it's buttered and knived
It's the awful truth you fight for your life

It might as well, it might as well hurt
It might as well, it might as well

I went down to rescue you
I went all the way down
Fill your hungry wretched life
Here they come, it's closing time

It's the bitter root, it's twisted inside
It's the heart you used to have when it died
It's the emptiness, it poisons, it lies
It's everything that you'll never find

It might as well, it might as well hurt
It might as well, it might as well

I went down for the remains
Sort through all your blurs and stains
Take your rapture blister burns
Stand in line, it's not your turn

All dressed in red always the bride
Off with her head, all dressed in white
Off with her head

I went down to rescue you
I went all the way down
I went down for the remains
Sort through all your blurs and stains

Oh, I will follow you
Anytime, anywhere
Oh, I will come for you
Just say you don't care

8. NORTHERN STAR

And I cry and no one can hear inhale
The blinded eyes that see the chaos
Bring the pitiful to me even though I’m wide-awake, I will
And blackest night and I’ll wait for you
It’s cold in here, there’s no one left and I wait for you
And nothing stops it happening and I knew I’d cherish all my misery alone

And I wait staring at the northern star
I’m afraid it won’t lead me anywhere
He’s so cold, he will ruin the world tonight
All the angels kneel into the northern lights
Kneel into the frozen lights

And they paid, I cry and cry for you
Ghosts that haunt you with their sorrow, I cried ’cause you were doomed
Praying to the wound that swallows, all that’s cold and cruel
Can you see the trees, charity and gratitude, they run to the pines
It’s black in here, blot out the sun and run to the pines
Our misery runs wild and free and I knew, the fire and the ashes of his grave

And I wait staring at the northern star
I’m afraid it won’t lead you very far
He’s so cold, he will win the world tonight
All the angels kneel into the frozen lights
Feel their hearts, they’re cold and white

And I want you and blessed are the broken and I beg you
No loneliness, no misery is worth you
Oh, tear his heart cold as ice, it’s mine

And I wait, praying to the northern star
I’m afraid it won’t lead you anywhere
He’s so cold, raining on the world tonight
All the angels kneeling to the northern lights

And I pray, begging to the northern star
I’m afraid it won’t lead you anywhere
He’s so cold, he will rule the world tonight
All the angels, kneeling to the northern lights
Kneeling to the frozen lights
Feel their hearts, they’re cold as ice

9. BOYS ON THE RADIO

Do what you want
’Cause I'll do anything
And I'll take the blame
What's mine is yours
You can have all of it
And I learn to beg

Oh, the boys on the radio
They crash and burn
They fold and fade so slow

In your endless summer night
I'll be on the other side
When you're beautiful and dying
All the world that you've denied
When the water is too deep
You can close your eyes
And really sleep tonight... tonight

I want what's yours
Oh, I'd give anything
And I'll take the pain
I wait alone
For what will never come
And I throw it all away

Oh, the boys on the radio
They crash and burn
They fold and fade so slow

In your endless summer night
I'll be on the other side
When you're beautiful and dying
All the world that you've denied
When the water is too deep
You can close your eyes
And really sleep tonight... your beauty blinds

If I let you in under my skin
And risen every angel slain
He said he'd never, ever, ever go
Never ever, ever go away
Baby, I've gone away

In your endless summer night
I'll be on the other side
When you're beautiful and dying
All the world that you've denied
When the water is too deep
You can close your eyes
And really sleep tonight... your beauty blinds

I know where are running to
Please come back, oh come back again
I hear the truth, it's coming from you
Oh, come back, won't you come back again

In your endless summer night
I'll be on the other side
When you're beautiful and dying
All the world that you've denied
When the water is too deep
I will ease your suffering
When the glitter fades in morning
Turn away and you will find my empty eyes... your beauty blinds

I know that you are rotten to the core
I know that you don't love me anymore
I know that you are rotten to the core

10. HEAVEN TONIGHT

Here comes the sun in the form of a girl
She's the finest, sweetest thing in the world

Take you to Heaven tonight
I feel the horses coming galloping in the summer rain
Take you to Heaven tonight

Because I love you for what you are
I'll gallop to you
Tonight, tonight we'll ride
I'll give it to you
We'll go to Heaven tonight

Out on the winding road, I couldn't wait
Oh, baby I was afraid, headed for Heaven tonight

I'll go to Heaven tonight
I feel the horses coming galloping, I will never grow old
I'll go to Heaven tonight

Because I love you for what you are
I'll gallop to you
Tonight, tonight we'll ride
I'll bow down to you
We'll go to Heaven tonight, tonight

I can't believe that I could be happy
Summer will come again, I could be happy
Oh, stop your crying, you could be happy
I go to Heaven when you make me happy

Here comes a kiss that I never had nothing feels like this
Headed for Heaven tonight

I love you, here comes the storm in the form of a girl
She's the finest sweetest thing in the world

I'll go to Heaven tonight for what you are
I'll gallop to you
Tonight, tonight we'll ride
I'll bow down to you
We'll go to Heaven tonight, tonight, tonight
Take it tonight, take it tonight
Take it tonight, tonight, tonight

11. PLAYING YOUR SONG

Hey you, you’re way ahead of me
You’re drunk on apathy
You burned right out
Hey you, you’re just a cripple now
We sell for millions now
They sold you out

Oh, I had to tell them you were gone
I had to tell them they were wrong
And now they’re playing your song

Hey you, don’t take it out on me
You’re bored on apathy
You burned right out
Hey you, so bored and cynical
It’s fucking wonderful
They sold you out

Oh, they’ve bought and sold it all it’s gone
They’ve taken it and built a mall
And now they’re playing your song

Ooh, their innocence tastes like candy, yeah
Get so fat on it, it’s a tragedy, yeah
Ooh, I can help you come to me, yeah
Just bring your innocence to me, yeah

Hey you, oh don't you dare blame me
You trusted everything
They sold you out
Hey you, now when they call it cool
It's just so mean and cruel
They sold you out

And oh, they've bought and sold it all, it's gone
And every note of it is wrong
And now they're playing your song
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh, they've bought and sold it all, it's gone
They've taken it and built a mall
And now they're playing your song
They're playing, playing your song
They're playing, playing your song
They're playing, playing your song

12. PETALS

She's the angel on top of the tree
Sugarheart, here she comes, she's going to fall on me

Innocence was our fire, we told the truth
I miss the sweet boys in the summer of their youth

Tear the petals off of you
And make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you

Tear the petals off of you
And make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you

They will make you so, so cynical
The fire burns the flesh, destroyed the best and made us old

She's the grace of this world, she's too pure
For the likes of this world, this world is a whore

Tear the petals off of you
And make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you

Tear the petals off of you
And make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you

Oh... It's all mine
And hey... It's all mine
And hell is all mine

I never knew what I could be
All the darling buds of May
They fall with no sound
They carry you down
They carry you down

All the lilies bloomed and blossomed, wilted and they're shivering
I can't stop their withering, oh, this world is a war

Tear the petals off of you
And make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you

Tear the petals off of you
And make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you

Tear the petals off of you
And make you tell the truth
Tear the petals off of you
