Take me alive Don't look inside Take me alive Do it! Stepping stones of my teeth, yeah Walk right out of this heat, yeah Get in line and don't leave, yeah Step inside my mind and take a picture of it I can't let a thought arise I'm waiting on the next attraction It was never that far behind A sudden apparition Never was a friend of mine Feeling like I'm self-destructive Said it like a thousand times But did anybody listen? Take me to the ritual, bleeding out again Singing while it leaves another hole in my head I know just how it feels, I love the way it hurts Take another miracle and let it burn Feeling like an antique, yeah I feel so loud I feel cheap, yeah Feel left out I can't breathe, yeah Take apart my mind and keep a picture of it Keep a picture of it I'm never at the starting line Acting out of pure resentment Feels like I'm burning alive How does everybody like it? I just want to make it clear Trying not to get distracted I don't want to disappear Now that everybody's watching Bleeding out again, I love the way it hurts Take me to the ritual, bleeding out again Singing while it leaves another hole in my head I know just how it feels, I love the way it hurts Take another miracle and let it burn They look inside They notice I listen to them talk real sweet But I feel like they should know better They look inside They notice I hear them through the wall real sweet But I feel like I should know better I feel it I gave my life and shame, I gave them blood Gave them all my love I gave my life and shame, I gave them blood Gave them all my love
