Nothing seems to work anymore Everything's broken and frozen Everything's broken and frozen to the ground My feet are freezing inside my Chuck Taylors Don't have the proper footwear Everything's rusted I wanna break something important I wanna break I wanna...make a difference I wanna save someone's life Everything's frozen to the ground And I wanna rip the roots up Make a change for everyone that I know

My room is so cold I don't think I'm alone There's a ghost in the corner, and her eyes are crying blood And I'm not safe, I don't know what to do My room is cold The ghost shrieks out She tries to drown my in the bathtub Hold my head below the water Hold my head below the water My room is so damn cold My room is so damn cold I don't know what to do I'm damaged goods no good for you, no way Not for anyone to consume, consume... Will I be haunted forever Or will the memories finally fade? I can't wait for that day where there is no more pain I can't wait for that day when there's no longer pain

The highway stretches for what seems like forever The road has two predators, sneaky and large Gas prices and adult bookstores fly by The world seems so big as we coast by another Longview Drive Dairy Queen hot dogs and Blizzards Don't look at me, I know it's January Ice cream is fine no matter the time Prolonged red lights A whole night worth of driving trying to set it on fire 4ND 744 What did you mean when you said you always want more? 4ND 788 Why does it seem like you're so consumed with hate? 4ND 799 It seems like every time we talk I wanna die! Oh oh! Damp and chilly nights Red and blue police car lights When will we ever get home? The false sense of arrival That comes with the mountain climb One mountain comes after another It just never stops No it never does stop No it doesn't stop! 4ND 744 What did you mean when you said you always want more? 4ND 788 Why does it seem like you're so consumed with hate? 4ND 799 It seems like every time we talk I wanna die! Oh oh!

She stares at the yellow windows in the rain And she wonders if she knows what love is She wears a white shirt and surrenders, gives herself to him But she wonders if she knows what love is He says: "There's no need to be dramatic, or put up a fight Stop putting up a fuss, it'll be alright" First cut might be the deepest, But it's the final thrust that seals the deal She composes herself in the mirror, telling herself not to feel Smoke dances around her hair Rain fogs up her glasses She laughs as if she doesn't care But she wonders if she knows what love is
