We never meant to be this bad We never meant to be this sad We never meant to be a lot of things That were lurking in the dark I applaud the facade of every broken heart Where dreams are just screams from a deep undying dark Or where sweet birds are the words of a world That hurled you down to the ground where you found Where you are now, where you found solid ground Buy me a new set of shoes I'll write out a new set of rules I'll feed you my heart and we will see If we can cure your disease I applaud the facade of every broken heart Where dreams are just screams from a deep undying dark Or where sweet birds are the words of a world That hurled you down to the ground where you found Where you are now, where you found solid ground I'm an altruist with a selfish hand But I know and I choose, am I something higher? I need something harder in my veins My blood won't help me from privileged pains
