*Here are the "acoustic" lyrics below line
============================================
I want to dissapear
I'd just sleep all day
These spots on my hand
My skin just like sand
And the air so cold
I shudder and I can't sing
The carpet on my feet
Sweat stains on the sheets
The cough syrup and drug
Bandages and guaze
The razor's dull, the water cold against my skin
The radio log is static buzzin' around like tin
(instrumental to 2nd verse)
In all these empty plans
The ink stains on my hands
And everyone saves
The best words for the grave
Are these weary morning tones??
I'll probably save mine too
If heaven's just a long road home
Tell me it's true
I'll go too
I'll go too
I'll go too
(instrumental to 3rd verse)
Well I lost my innocence today
I could feel her in my bones,
my bones, my bones, my bones
my blood, my blood, my blood, my blood
And I woke up tired, scared and sad
Soaked, drained, I felt so bad today, today, today
But you still, you still, you still, you still
Won't you say, you say, you say, you say
What you feel, you feel, you feel, you feel
Which is nothin' but hollow feelings there
Oh I could die.. I just don't care..
And forget happiness, I'm fine
I'll forget everything, in time
I swear I didn't know
You know me..how I can't let go
And we're not Gods, we're just Hacks
All that life amongst the cracks
the scars, the siege n the breaks
the ugliest scenes, the worst mistakes
And everywhere, I see her face
Such a beautiful child, such an awful waste
And there's no innocence like hers
just Emptiness and Nerves
And this light, from the window of my car
She'll never see it, oh my God
I was so surprised
It blew up in my face
Lord, I lost my nerve
Oh my God..
Oh my God!!
oh my
God
(instrumental to outro)
And I tear, I tear, so hard..
And I tear, I tear, so hard..
And I beg and scream "I was wrong"
It's over she's gone
(ooohh myyy godddd)<br />
