lyrics

I can see you staring
Straight ahead

Does it sting?
When they open up your brain?
It’s not the prettiest scene
To see why you do
The things that you do

You’ll find my vendetta
At the top of the hill

I may not be in the cool kids club
But I got front row tickets to the execution

In your head, Oh
Where the daisies don’t bloom and the sky is cold doom
In your head, Oh
Where my heart used to dwell and the ghost of me fell,
It’s never been the same without your drug in my veins
I’m a fiend for your scent and a sucker for that flame
No, don’t talk about our love babe
Don’t talk about it anymore

All these blood red hands
Well, they hold me high
It’s a problem when you
Can’t find your brain
And I think that you like being the reaper
But I could still love you
Just let me through

I may not be in the cool kids club
But I got front row tickets to the execution

In your head, Oh
Where the daisies don’t bloom and the sky is cold doom
In your head, Oh
Where my heart used to dwell and the ghost of me fell,
It’s never been the same without your drug in my veins
I’m a fiend for your scent and a sucker for that flame
No, don’t talk about our love babe
Don’t talk about it anymore

In your eyes, I’ll stay
With that monster in your brain
Such a frightful display
Under your skin, I’ll stay
Until the end of my days I will lay

It’s never been the same without your drug in my veins
I’m a fiend for your scent and a sucker for that flame
No, don’t talk about our love babe
Don’t talk about it anymore
