I’ve got my scars to bear
Stitches just can’t repair, woah
There’s no one to blame this time
Absolution’s waiting on a prayer
I’m breaking down the walls
Bailing my share of faults, woah
This blood on my hands is a blessing
In a lifetime, twisted by designBut I’m so alive!
Is it a threat or the cure?
‘Cause it’s a brave new world
I don’t know if I’m ready for, just to test
‘Cause I’m miles up above you
Flying with no safety net
I don’t believe in fate, although this time
I think I’ve met my match
Why are the dreams so hard to catch?‘Cause you forget in time
What it feels inside
When you live right on the line
But I’m so alive!They say believing is the hardest part
But I say with every beat of my heart
I alone will find my way
And get right back to the start
They say the fire in your heart is gone
Well, I say it’s really only just begun
All along you know that I’m
I’m twisted by design
I’m twisted by designTaking the days as they come
But now I’m seeing the world
As if it had a thousand sounds
I admit that they’re somewhere along the lines
I guess I lost my grip
But luck has turned the page and time is up
I need to get things right
One more chance to catch the light‘Cause you forget in time
What it feels inside
When you live right on the line
But I’m so alive!They say believing is the hardest part
But I say with every beat of my heart
I alone will find my way
And get right back to the start
They say the fire in your heart is gone
Well, I say it’s really only just begun
All along you know that I’m
I’m twisted by design
I’m twisted by designStarting over again
But the further I get
I can’t stop
These walls from closing in
Going out of my head
All the tears that I bled
They’re not enough
To take my pain awayThey say believing is the hardest part
But I say with every beat of my heart
I alone will find my way
And get right back to the start
They say the fire in your heart is gone
Well, I say it’s really only just begun
All along you know that I’m
I’m twisted by designIn some ways I’ve changed
And I’ve left it all behind
But I can’t change the way
That I’m twisted by design -
Feeling like i’m being selfish
Sweetly embrace me on this one sole path
Wherever I am, I can’t seem to find
It’s all because of you and those red pillsOverlapping together as a pure heart
One night asking all about love
Delicate ♡ as a result of these heartbreaks
All because of you breathlessly sighing“Dancing as you please”
“Aren’t you a man like you say”
“Singing as you please”
“Looking like a fool”Things that I won’t change
Bid farewell, reluctance, entrusting all these dreams
I can’t turn back on my own
You’re out there remaining all aloneThis world being a place for burying my heart
Flying away today with me hiding my tears
Lying on the ground wearing a mask
Losing my wings and feathers(Flightless Butterflies)
Feeling like i’m being selfish
Sweetly embrace me on this one sole path
Wherever I am, I can’t seem to find
It’s all because of you and those red pills“Dancing as we please”
“Aren’t you a child like you say”
“Singing as we please”
“…Hey, come save me”Things that I won’t change
Bid farewell, reluctance, entrusting all these dreams
I can’t turn back on my own
You’re out there remaining all aloneThings that I won’t change
Bid farewell, reluctance, entrusting all these dreams
I can’t turn back on my own
You’re out there remaining all aloneThings that I won’t change
Bid farewell, reluctance, entrusting all these dreams
I can’t turn back on my own
…And you’re out there… you’re out thereYou’re out there remaining all alone
基本勝手な気分は上々
離れ小道で甘く抱き寄せて
何処に居たって見つからないのは
紅い薬と貴方のせいよ
重ね併せた慕情は純情
一夜限りの愛を問いかけて
華奢な♡が御破算するのは
貴方好みの吐息のせいよ
「踊りなさいよ」
「男じゃないの?」
「唄いなさいよ」
「馬鹿みたい」
変わらないのは
別れ 惜しみ 夢を 託し
そして此処に還れない
貴方独りだけでしょう
所詮、この世は心の斎場
泪隠して今日も飛び立つの
仮面被って地べたを這うのは
羽根を亡くした
<飛べない蝶々>

Regrets collect like old friends
Here to relive your darkest moments
I can see no way, I can see no way
And all of the ghouls come out to play
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
But I like to keep some things to myself
I like to keep my issues drawn
It’s always darkest before the dawnAnd I’ve been a fool, and I’ve been blind (I’ve been blind)
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
I’m always dragging that horse around
All of his questions, such a mournful sound
Tonight, I’m gonna bury that horse in the ground
‘Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
But it’s always darkest before the dawnShake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa oh
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, oh whoa oh
And it’s hard to dance with a devil on your back, so shake him off
Ooh whoa ohAnd I am done with my graceless heart
So tonight, I’m gonna cut it out, and then restart
‘Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
It’s always darkest before the dawnShake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa oh
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, oh whoa oh
And it’s hard to dance with a devil on your back, so shake him off
Ooh whoa oh (shake him off)And it’s hard to dance with a devil on your back (shake it off)
But given half the chance, would I take any of it back? (Shake it off)
It’s a fine romance, but it’s left me so undone (shake it off)
It’s always darkest before the dawn (shake it off)Oh whoa oh
Oh whoa ohAnd I’m damned if I do, and I’m damned if I don’t
So here’s to drinks in the dark, at the end of my road
And I’m ready to suffer, and I’m ready to hope
It’s a shot in the dark aimed right at my throat
‘Cause looking for heaven, found the devil in me (oh whoa oh)
Looking for heaven, found the devil in me (oh whoa oh)
But what the hell, I’m gonna let it happen
To me, yeahShake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa oh
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, oh whoa oh
And it’s hard to dance with a devil on your back, so shake him off
Oh whoa ohShake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa oh
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, oh whoa oh
And it’s hard to dance with a devil on your back, so shake him off
Oh whoa oh -
You are red and blue and green
Living like a living computer glitch
You could change to anything
All you gotta do is just hit the switch
You are muscle, flesh, and bone
Living in the land of automobiles
If you ever lose your shoes
All you gotta do is just click your heelsSymmetry’s overrated, methinks
Look at the scars all over the SphinxDo you know that when you blink
Each eye winks slightly out of sync?Symmetry’s overrated, methinks
Look at the scars all over the Sphinx
Even the planet spins with a tilt
Everybody’s built like a quiltHave you heard the awful truth?
Cursed asymmetricals go to hell!
If you trip and lose a tooth
You gotta knock the other side out as well
Gouge both eyes out and you’ll see
Empty sockets everywhere: self abyss
Fill them up with mercury
So that I can see myself when we kissSymmetry’s overrated, methinks
Look at the scars all over the Sphinx
Even the planet spins with a tilt
Everybody’s built like a quiltTrees in the forest fall to the side
Everybody’s got something to hide
Except for me and my suitcase
Full of imperfections
If the court has no objections!Symmetry’s overrated, methinks
Look at the scars all over the Sphinx
I am lopsided, and so are you
Nothing worth loving isn’t askew! -
When did all fall apart in your hands
Chemistries tell me we should be friends
I dont know how I’m gonna pretend
I dont know how I’m gonna pretendYou stole my, oh my heart
You stole my, you stole my
I’m so high, I come apart
You stole my, you stole my
HeartI’m a bullet stopped dead in the air
Smoke hanging silver, caught in your stare
Hanging on when I know you don’t care
Hanging on when I know you don’t careYou stole my, oh my heart
You stole my, you stole my
I’m so high, I come apart
You stole my, you stole my
HeartYou took my love, you left the rain
I still wait, I still wait
I’m holding on, you walk away
I still wait, I still wait
You took my love, you left the rain
I still wait, I still wait
I’m holding on, you walk away
I still wait, I still waitYou stole my, oh my heart
You stole my, you stole my
I’m so high, I come apart
You stole my, you stole my (heart)
You stole my, oh my heart
You stole my, you stole my
I’m so high, I come apart
You stole my, you stole my
Heart
HeartYou’ve been with me all along, all along
Always on my side, you’ve never gone
You’ve been with me all along
And you’ve been holding on, holding on for so long
When others would be gone, you stayed with me all alongYou’ve been with me when I laugh or cry
Anywhere I stood, you’d be standing by
With me when I’m fine, with me when I’m not
With me when I’m giving everything I gotWith me all along, not a cameo
Every scene, every episode, in every video
Skip no scenario, there anywhere we goYou’ve been with me all along, all along
Always on my side, you’ve never gone
You’ve been with me all along
And you’ve been holding on, holding on for so long
When others would be gone, you stayed with me all alongYou’re still with me, and I hope you stay
We’ve come a long way since the early days
Always had a spot in the escapades, and a suitcase for the getawayAnd all along you were always down
Showed up, and would hang around
Singing loud, standing out in every crowd
And you’re still here nowYou’ve been with me all along, all along
Always on my side, you’ve never gone
You’ve been with me all along
And you’ve been holding on, holding on for so long
When others would be gone, you stayed with me all alongThey’re not all like you, no
Some blow away in a fair weather gust
Disappear in a cloud of dust
Leave you in the rain to rust, betraying your trust
Say you’re pretty good, but not good enough
The ones you thought you knew well
But I guess not well enoughBut that’s not you, that’s not you
You never put me in the rearview
I wouldn’t be the same without you
So I thank you, I thank you
You never put me in the rearview
And I wouldn’t be the same without youAlways on my side, you’ve never gone
You’ve been with me all along
And you’ve been holding on, holding on for so long
When others would be gone, you stayed with me all alongYou’ve been with me
You’ve been with me all along, all along, all along
You’ve been with me
You’ve been with me all along, all along, all alongWhen I’m furthest from myself (far away)
Feeling closer to the stars (outer space)
I’ve been invaded by the dark (can’t escape)
Trying to recognize myself when I feel I’ve been replaced
When I’m furthest from myself (far away)
Feeling closer to the stars (outer space)
I’ve been invaded by the dark (can’t escape)
Trying to recognize myself when I feel I’ve been replacedI can feel a kick down in my soul
And it’s pulling me back to earth to let me know
I am not a slave, can’t be contained
So pick me from the dark and pull me from the grave
‘CauseI still feel alive
When it’s hopeless
I start to notice
That I still feel alive
Falling forward
Back into orbitSo when I lose my gravity in this sleepy womb
Drifting as I dream, but I’ll wake up soon
To realize the hand of life is reaching out
To rid me of my pride I call allegiance to myselfI can feel a kick down in my soul
And it’s pulling me back to earth to let me know
I am not a slave, can’t be contained
So pick me from the dark and pull me from the grave
‘CauseI still feel alive
When it’s hopeless
I start to notice
That I still feel alive
Falling forward
Back into orbitI still feel alive
When it’s hopeless
I start to notice
That I still feel alive
Falling forward
Back into orbitI can feel a kick down in my soul
It’s pulling me back to earth to let me know
And this heart that beats inside of me will show
It will showFloating in outer space
Have I misplaced
A part of my soul
Lost in the in between
Or so it seems
I’m out of control
Floating in outer space
Have I misplaced
A part of my soul
Lost in the in between
But I can’t keep me
Asleep for long, ’causeI still feel alive (I can feel it)
When it’s hopeless (it ain’t hopeless)
I start to notice (start to notice)
I still feel alive (I can feel it)
Falling forward (falling forward)
Back into orbit (back into orbit)I still feel alive (I can feel it)
When it’s hopeless (it ain’t hopeless)
I start to notice (start to notice)
I still feel alive (I can feel it)
Falling forward (falling forward)
Back into orbitI still feel alive
I can feel it
It ain’t hopeless
‘Cause I start to notice
I still feel alive
I can feel it
Falling forwardI still feel alive
I still feel alive -
I’ve spent a quarter of a century,
Hiding from whoever I want to be
Baring a weight that no one sees,
Maybe it’s time to come cleanWhen you told me I could be anything,
Is this what you had in mind?
A senseless child with no sense of direction,
Trying and failing to make true connection with anythingI’d give you the world if it meant it might swallow me whole
-
From New York to Austin
I can’t wait to take you there
When they see you walking
They can’t help but stop and stareTell me what you want us to be
(Can you tell me?)
I would move a mountain for you to see
That we can make it heavenly
Heat up like the summer in TennesseeWe could be so good
Light up the neighbourhood
We could be so good
Light up the neighbourhoodI don’t ask for much
I don’t need to rush
Driving on the one with your hand over the ocean
Waves could pack a punch
I feel it when we touch
Falling with the sun and I’m lost in all the motionTell me what you want us to be
(Can you tell me?)
I would move a mountain for you to see
That we can make it heavenly
Heat up like the summer in TennesseeWe could be so good
Light up the neighbourhood
We could be so good
Light up the neighbourhood
So good
So good -

I’m gonna be so chic***not the official lyrics, this is my own transcription
Don’t tell me that they’re all the same
Cause even the sound of his name
Carries me over their reach
Back to some golden beach
Where only he remainsYou planted your eyes on my feet
You told me to dig my heels deep
The night wore the rain
On her windowpane
Drifted us to sleepAll that we needed was right
The threshold is breaking tonight
Open to everything happy and sad
Seeing the good when it’s all going bad
Seeing the sun when I can’t really see
Hoping the sun will at least look at meFocus on everything better today
All that I need and I never could say
Hold on to people, they’re slipping away
Hold on to this while it’s slipping awayAll that we needed tonight
Are people who love us, and light
I know how it feels to mean it
Oh, and we leave here, you’ll see
Open to everything happy and sad
Seeing the good when it’s all going bad
Seeing the sun when I can’t really see
Hoping the sun will at least look at meFocus on everything better today
All that I need and I never could say
Hold on to people, they’re slipping away
Hold on to this while it’s slipping away
So long (so long)
So long (so long)I open to everything happy and sad
Seeing the good when it’s all going bad
Seeing the sun when I can’t really see
Hoping the sun will at least look at meFocus on everything better today
All that I need and I never could say
Hold on to people, they’re slipping away
Hold on to people, they’re slipping awayHold on to people, they’re slipping away
