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
 (Same riff as intro)
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 greater?
 I need something harder in my veins
 My blood won't help me from privileged pains
