lyrics

Every word lost its fervor
Milk glass on the window sill
You won’t let the light in
Just sit around and fight for your fill
Old friends fade into pieces
Gone after their postmodern dreams
Romance I’m glad turned to ash, fast
Thank God for eternity

St. Pete screams for a savior
Art and beer you know they can’t redeem
Hollow men with hollow chests
Think life’s for living like a teen
Gotta fight the fight
Wipe the scales from the night
And look upon the face of someone real

Love you say is the end all cure
But if it’s not pure, then it’s a joke
Brand yourself with some holy X
Not free drugs and sex, they ain’t got hope
Take his blood for your own deep dark
He removes the scars and you come clean
Rid yourself of philosophies
They won’t hold your hand and lead you to the land
He’s coming home

Last night in Ybor city
Felt like the last night of the world
All this drunken babble
Purpose is a show and a girl
But it's ok, we’re modern kids they said so
You’re not a kid your 29
Stuck inside that high school dream
Of cigarettes and screams
Those things will only bleed you dry

He said everything is nothing
That sentence don’t have a start
Like three is two and you are blue or karma
Don’t look at the whole you’re just looking at parts
This scene’s so hocus pocus
Pleasure is a parlor trick
If you don’t stand for something
You know you’re bound to fall
Your knees may be the best place of all

Love they say is the end all cure
But if it’s not pure then it’s a joke
Brand yourself with some holy X
Not free drugs and sex, they ain’t got hope
Take his blood for your own deep dark
He removes the scars and you come clean
Rid yourself of philosophies
They won’t hold your hand, lead you to the land
He’s coming home

Love they swear is a magic word
But it’s a sad excuse to whore out your heart
For anybody or anything who shares a spark
Sparkling like a diamond ring
It’s a pathetic little echo, it’s not the love you really need
So take those blinders from your eyes
And those bars from your mind
And quit your walking of the line
And be set free
