Blueprint
 BlueprintLies by the ThousandsAnd what you got don't mean much to me No one knows what I might conquer With lies like these. 
Best Way to DieThis is the drug that told her she could fly The best way to die was found here tonight They've all lost control but they're feelin' alright The best way to die was found here tonight They've all lost control but they're feelin' alright Feel her pulse beating gently in the vein Alive but dead, so close, nearly the same He is an engine running in the red Due to the boiling fever in his head He dragged her down almost overnight An innocent lost burning wrong from right You don't deserve this! You're empty, I'm empty - it left me dry You're bending, I'm bending - to save the night I'm trying, you're crying At the outstretched hand you found Hand you found, hand you found You don't deserve this!
The Night it Went Too FarSo far from where we had started from Soothing the egos of losers in a game much bigger What were we doing here? Thrust into a bad dream, descended like a smokescreen The night it went too far To bend, to steal The night it went too far To mend, to feel The night it went too far Melting down the mind always sounds like fun 'Til someone whispers and it weighs a ton Breaking the silence with secrets that decay with vigor What were we doing here? Thrust into a bad dream, descended like a smokescreen What were we doing here? Sucked into the jetstream that washed away the hurt clean What were we doing here?
BlueprintA history that had its day, came and went Broken bones and broken hearts will make it true All that left is here again and the rest's arriving soon With trembling hands I raised it up for all to see Just what we'd done towards a new breed Wretched dreams and endless schemes I need a miracle, we need a miracle A purity that's bound to dwindle A poor attempt to rekindle what was lost
The Goodbye LetterI should've read the signs I've seen the bigger picture, dear It's never been so clear Time to write all my wrongs away Flatlining us into the big fade Save my head from all the hurt you say Breaking down on us a little every day Should've known better than to wait this long Pulling your strings around was clearly wrong In our hearts we've known how the wind would blow That it couldn't last - so says your goodbye letter So many times I woke up to a lie I woke up to a lie I've seen the writing on the wall We'll be the first to fall Time to write all my wrongs away Flatlining us into the big fade Save my head from all the hurt you say
Baby, Cool Your JetsWhen crazy eyes are shot my way I need a fix and I need one quick You know the things that make me tick Yeah I wanna breathe and I'm on my knees 'Cause I need some breathing room! Baby, cool your jets is what I say The consequence is what you'll pay Behind my back you play your tricks You know the things that make me sick Yeah I wanna breathe and I'm on my knees 'Cause I need some breathing room! Yeah I wanna breathe, beggin' darlin' please 'Cause I need some breathin' room! Calling off all bets 'Til you cool your jets Baby, cool your jets Baby, cool your jets is what I say It never had to end this way Killing the vibe when you up and quit I'm glad you're gone but you will be missed
After the RainI see it's raining in my I know you're raining in my head Oh, the drops will fall Like the answer to my call Collect them careful in my hands I'm begging you, please
Tinfoil StarFound my courage now, I'm finally face to face with it Rejection broke me down while the dream was growing faint No choice but to cut you loose, these shoulders couldn't stand the weight I was scared of almost everything I saw No second chance would ever come along You had wandered on empty when the sky became my floor I gave you everything I had but now you're back for more Well, you blew in like a storm and then you crept out like a lamb The tinfoil star had lost its shine so you packed your bags and ran So close to the ending as it was Filled my pockets and changed focus to a different cause The stars you wore for eyes stopped twinkling with time No choice but to see you free, this fruit was dying on the vine I was scared of almost everything I saw Blind to the elegance I knew was wrong No second chance would ever come along Oh, a twist of fate Has made you run away From the tinfoil star
AfterglowLost it all to the day we leave all this behind It's a beautiful thing when you know You can slip through the door if patience wore thin Just suck in your pride, stick out your chin and cut it down It's okay if you sing, if you've got the words right You can sip from the fountain if mystery dissolves I can still see your face with my eyes tightly closed Tried to write it in words but the words weren't my own We're basking in the afterglow
SuddenlyOh no, I'd murdered it, yeah Dizzy, I fell in the chair, blood soaking in my hair A body on the ground The aftermath was an afterthought Though I know I won't get caught You've kept quiet up 'til now I don't know how long I can stay just this strong I don't know how long I can stay this strong Suddenly, I feel I'm wrong Suddenly I knew what I felt that I must do I dug myself a hole Operating within a trance, I breathed the air's romance And threw you in the dirt Now I'm not one for broken hearts, so I climbed into the dark And lied right by your side The rain washed in the soil, we were alone again As in love as we'd ever been I don't know how long We can stay just this strong I don't know how long We can stay this strong At least we were never wrong
