BLACK HEART BLUES
*********************
(1st Verse)
I'M BURNING…
LIKE THE ASPHALT IN THE VALLEY ON A SUMMER'S FIRST HEAT
YOU ARE BEATHLESS…
I'M STILL HIGH FROM WATCHING YOUR FACE TURN BLUE
(Chorus)
BLACK HEARTS, BLEED VENOM
YOU'RE SUCH A MESS
YEAH YOU LOOK SO GOOD ON YOUR KNEES
(2nd Verse)
I STILL FEEL DISEASED…
FROM LAYING MY SOUL DOWN BETWEEN YOUR SHEETS
AND WITH THIS CLEANSING…
I LEAVE YOUR ASS AND YOUR LIES AT THE MURDER SCENE
(Chorus)
BLACK HEARTS, BLEED VENOM
YOU'RE SUCH A MESS
YEAH YOU LOOK SO GOOD ON YOUR KNEES
(Bridge)
YOU ARE A FADING BRUISE
THIS BLACKENED HEART BLEEDS VENOM
FOR YOU I HAVE NO USE
EXCEPT WHEN I NEED TO FEED ON VIOLENCE
(Chorus)
BLACK HEARTS, BLEED VENOM
YOU'RE SUCH A MESS
YEAH YOU LOOK SO GOOD ON YOUR KNEES

BLOWN TO BITS
****************
(1st Verse)
SELF LOATHING SCENESTERS BLUR THE SCREEN
THAT'S WHERE I FOUND PERFECTION FULL OF HEAT
THROWN HARD UP AGAINST THE WALL
PRETTY BABY'S MYSTERY IS PUNISHING ME
NO SOUND… I FELL HARD FOR THAT LOOK
LONG GONE… SHE'S A DRUG AND I'M HOOKED
THIS DISTANCE IS DRIVING ME MAD
I ACHE IN PLACES I NEVER KNEW THAT I HAD
(Chorus)
I'M FIGHTIN' GIVING INTO THIS
'CAUSE BABY I'M READY TO BE BLOWN TO BITS (That's The Way You Want It!)
(2nd Verse)
LOST PRAYERS INK BAD LUCK INTO MY SKIN
I'LL KISS HER BREATHLESS 'TIL SHE FEELS SICK
ANTICIPATION, SWOLLEN HOPE IN MY CHEST
WE FUCK SLOW WITH WORDS, I'M A TREMBLIN' MESS
SHE'S LUST… I LOSE MYSELF IN HER FACE
I'M DRUNK… FROM THOUGHTS OF WHISKEY TASTE ON HER BREATH
HEARTACHE IS JUMPIN' THROUGH MY SKIN
I'M GONNA CHERISH HER UNTIL THIS NIGHT ENDS
(Chorus)
I'M FIGHTIN' GIVING INTO THIS
'CAUSE BABY I'M READY TO BE BLOWN TO BITS (That's The Way You Want It!)
(Bridge)
JUST GIMMIE SOME ACTION HONEY
I'M BEGGIN', I NEED TO SEE YOU MOVE… YEAH MOVE
JUST GIMMIE SOME ACTION HONEY
I'LL GIVE YOU SIN THAT BRINGS ON TRUTH… YEAH TRUTH
AHHHHHHH SHAKE!
(3rd Verse)
I BET SHE'S GOT SOME "COME AND GET IT" IN HER WALK
SHE BRINGS ON FEVER, GONNA MAKE ME DROP
I NEED HER LIPS TO BRING ME RELEASE
SO I CAN FORGIVE BABY FOR MY HAUNTED SLEEP
LIGHTS OUT… GONNA GIVE OFF SPARKS THAT LIGHT UP THE ROOM
TIMB BOMB… LIGHT MY FUSE WITH A BOOM SWAGGER BOOM
COMIN' AT YOU WITH A HOWL AND A STRUT
SHAG THAT ASS ON OVER AND GIVE ME ALL THAT YOU GOT… UH!
(Chorus)
I'M FIGHTIN' GIVING INTO THIS
'CAUSE BABY I'M READY TO BE BLOWN TO BITS (That's The Way You Want It!)

BRUISES
********
(1st Verse)
I'VE BEEN CONDEMNED FOR MISTAKES
I'VE BEEN DREADING TO EXPLAIN
THESE WORDS WILL BURDEN ME WITH SHAME
SOMEHOW I'VE PISSED ON RESPECT
WITH MY LAST BREATH…
I'LL GREET THESE FEELINGS THAT ARE RAKED ACROSS MY BACK
(Chorus)
I'LL NEVER BELIEVE HER
USE MY BROKEN HEART TO DECEIVE HER YEAH
HOW CAN I EVER HEAL
IF YOU WON'T LET ME PROVE THESE MEMORIES WRONG
I'LL NEVER BELIEVE HER

A PROMISE YOU CAN BET ON
STILL DEAD SET AGAINST YOU BEING… RIGHT
(2nd Verse)
COME SHOW ME TRUST I DESERVE
I OWE YOU NOTHING…
'CAUSE NOTHING'S ALL I GET IN RETURN

TRUE SELF IN DISGUISE
WE LIGHT THIS FIRE AND I'M READY TO WATCH IT BURN
(Chorus)
I'LL NEVER BELIEVE HER
USE MY BROKEN HEART TO DECEIVE HER YEAH
HOW CAN I EVER HEAL
IF YOU WON'T LET ME PROVE THESE MEMORIES WRONG

(1st Bridge)
I'M DROWNING IN THIS TENSION
YOU PUSH UNTIL IT MAKES ME ILL
I'M ABOUT TO THROW A FIT THAT WILL RUIN YOU
I WISH I COULD HELP MYSELF
(2nd Bridge)
I'M BLACK AND BLUE BUT I'M STILL ALIVE
MY INSIDES ARE SORE BUT I BRING THE FIGHT
SHOOT MY MOUTH OFF TO SHOW YOU PAIN
'CAUSE I'M A GODDMAN MOTHERFUCKING MESS OF A MAN
(Chorus)
I'LL NEVER BELIEVE HER
USE MY BROKEN HEART TO DECEIVE HER YEAH
HOW CAN I EVER HEAL
IF YOU WON'T LET ME PROVE THESE MEMORIES WRONG

USE MY BROKEN HEART TO DECEIVE HER YEAH
A PROMISE YOU CAN BET ON
STILL DEAD SET AGAINST YOU BEING… RIGHT

HERE'S TO MY FRUSTRATION… AND LEAVING DOUBT BEHIND
(Chorus)

SHOVE THEM DOWN YOUR THROAT WITH A SMILE
(Chorus)
IT'S ALRIGHT THAT YOU'VE BEEN BLIND
'CAUSE I'VE GOT SUCCESS IN MY SIGHTS
