Tear Stained Lies

Tear Stained Lies

Odd Project
(album: The Second Hand Stopped)

black lines where your eyes used to shine.
cross our hearts, we´re sippin´ shots of cyanide.
kiss my lips and taste this, this suicide.
we sleep with the enemy and kill what we love.
cursed with the gift of beauty.
you wield it like it´s... a loaded gun.
so let´s burn our bridges before they´re built.
never say "i love you" till blood is spilt.
choke on my name... as you whisper.
can you taste the blood on your lips
as the syllables slit your throat.

you say that I´m everything that you want...
well I´m everything that you hate, and it goes unsaid.
the way you whispered, you lied. you always lie to me again.

with these broken windows and these tear stained lies
i won´t be sleeping alone tonight.
but we tried... we tried so hard...

so explain this time with the barrel of a gun down your fucking throat.
i said i loved you, but now you make me choke on my words.
