Good Mourning lyrics

I've got a book of mathes

I've got a can of kerosene

I've got some bright ideas involving you and me

i don't blame you for walking away
i'd do the same if i saw me

i shat the bed and laid there in it

thinking of you wide awake for days

and i found you tounge tied

in my twisted little brain

you couldn't crack a smile

i didn't catch your name

In the shadows where their heads hang low
You hear voices as the wind blows
Asking can't you see
Reminding you to breathe
It's only time before it catches up
To you and all your broken luck
I found a better way
To get even with my memory

In the darkness where the angels cry
Give us water, give us back our lives
I'll press this concrete floor
And it's all we have left to live for

You're in the next room sleeping
And I'm shouting out a song for you
I shouldn't wake you over the furnace
But I just wrote a song
One you would love, let me know
So dream a good one tonight
I'll listen to the bad ones when they come
Cut open my ear till I hear every word
Every turn of your tongue
I will tighten my grip

And no one can tell even if I fell

i've got a dying urge to feel the way you do

too close for comfort

bed and breakfast in a spoon

the shortest breath of your young life
a long walk home on friday night

you made one last stop at the store

so close to perfect swear to hell thought it was you

this bouncing baby boy's now turning baby blue

i've got your pictures on my walls

i've got a long list of calls i must make

I put it all on black, no color you're all dressed in
And a stab in the back left you bleeding on the floor
And I'm mourning the death, the recent passing of your insides
I smile in regret every time I think of how I spoke to you

I put it all in back of my mind where I hold you
I'm just trying to keep track how far back it really goes
And I'm living in lack of the blood sent from the heavens

emma appeared like an angel
emma fell like rain
into my lap like a heart attack
like lightning from her name
im running dry of bad excuses
don't wanna lie or seem intrusive
but time hasn't told me anything
and neither has she

a pointsettia in poison rain
traded true love for insult and injury
we washed it down the drain
with one silver bullet and two vicodin

emma woke up in darkness

There's no mystery no more, just no talking to you
Guess you had other things in store
Guess I felt I was through
I answered every question as accurately as I could

I don't hear from you no more, but I get the message
You crashed your car through my front door, I pulled you from the wreckage
You told me that you missed me
But you meant with the grill and hood you'd kill me if you could

I know it's dark here, you know that I'm scared too
For some reason right now, of everything but you
Right now you're all that I recognize
You know I came here when I needed your soft voice
I needed to hear something that sounded like an answer
Now I wait here, and sometimes I get one

It's nothing I'll forget when the moon gets tired
You are stuck to me everyday

It's everything that I can do right now
To not think about you moving further off with every passing second
And every night of this lonely summertime
I feel you missing from my heart, a part was kidnapped from my soul

Well I can hardly wait until I get the sun and your lips both pressing on my skin
Well I can hardly wait until I feel that thrill my heart that starts inside your eyes

So it began this way, I can't recall how it got started
So it began this way, I don't recall a thing
And all in all I guess it's for the better
If you don't remember anything, sit and sing
There was a time when everything we did seemed second nature
There was a time when everything we did seemed free
And all in all I guess it's for the better
If you don't remember anything, sit and sing

a train appeared in town one night.

for some of us it changed our lives

a few of us never saw it coming,

then like the fire it disappeared.

it happens at a wonderful age,
with the traffic lights your mind can change

we made up rules to follow for good,

no wonder we're fucked up, some of us did

tonight never ends if we never go inside.

the moon is always full

It's about time that I came clean with you
I'm no longer fine, I'm no longer running smooth
I though that I found myself under something new
Just one more line I repeat over and over again
'Till I'm blue in the face with a choking regret
Because I talk in circles 'round you on my bed
Can't say I blame you one bit when you kept it all inside
When you left that night

I thought that you were joking
When you said you couldn't breathe
You said you couldn't breathe
Turns out that you were choking
On a town you couldn't leave
You knew you'd never leave
It met your disapproval at the age of 8 years old
You were only 8 years old
From then on there was no removal
From that one way dead end road
That one way dead end road

I thought that you were laughing

You're in the next room sleeping and
I'm shouting out a song for you
I shouldn't wake you over the furnace,
but I should swear to someone you'd have loved every note
So dream a good one tonight
I'll listen to the bad ones when they come
Get up in my ear 'till I hear every word
Every turn of your tongue, I will tighten my grip
No one could tell even if I fell 1

I got these thoughts in my head
dirty as fuck and never leaving
and then best left unsaid
all the drinks under breath
got some shit off my chest
put on my back next to the monkey nest
that somebody left
with me the day I was born

I got a hole in my head
the size of lake fuckin' michigan
my pipes lined in lead
got old school reasons to die

all my money's been spent
