Silverlake 65:71 Lyrics - My Ruin

The forecast said it would be sunny 

I guess they got it wrong 

It's raining again in Silverlake 

And I need to hear my song 

The one that puts me in the mood 

To spill my guts and talk to you 

Saves me from my self-inflicted worry when I do 

Oh, you're asleep right now but I'm still wide awake 

It's hard for me to close my eyes without no pill to take 

I think of all the times I tried, the nights I dreamed I'd died 

Help me feel alive again 'cause I'm so dead inside 

Well, I'm a liar and you're my saint 

It feels so good being the one they hate 

And I'm a sinner, so let's all pray 

I wouldn't want it any other way 

Well, have you heard the news, I've got a blue bruise on my hip 

The truth can be a brutal business, I just need a kiss 

Someone to tape my wrists, I think that I'm about to bleed 

But I know it's not up to you to give me what I need 

Oh, you're awake right now so I must be asleep 

It seems I've got a secret that I ain't afraid to keep 

I think of all the times I tried to tell you how I feel 

But it's so hard to mend my wounds that just refuse to heal 

Well, I'm a liar and you're my saint 

It feels so good being the one they hate 

And I'm a sinner, so let's all pray 

I wouldn't want it any other way 

Take me back, let's go back 

It's so dark here, it's so black 

Exquisite with stillness, the fragrance of flesh 

The taste of revenge and my wounds are still fresh 

Now here she comes with her bloody red lips 

Funeral-white skin and her generous hips 

Drenched in the scent of romance like no other 

She's so filthy gorgeous that death has become her 

Well, I'm a liar and you're my saint 

It feels so good being the one they hate 

And I'm a sinner, so let's all pray 

I wouldn't want it any other way
