Violet (Live 2007)

Thank you gays

Violet - The Birthday Massacre

Tragic comedy divine

Paints the way to peace of mind

Leaving shallow lovers far behinds

Past uncertainties combine

Bringing tears to sleepless eyes

Memory runs the course of time

Blood runs cold beyond the violet prison

For violent visions

And so the broken record plays

As you throw us away

We're never enough

We're drowning in cliches

So desperate to love

We're twisting every word they say

So we sleep through the days

Within the heat of passions war

Last is spilled upon the floor

Staining red the wasted metaphor

The selfish need for something more

Claws in vain at closing doors

Scarring faces once adored

Tracing circles in the violet prison

For violent visions

And so the broken record plays

As you throw us away

We're never enough

We're drowning in cliches

So desperate to love

We're twisting every word they say

So we sleep through the days
