Lyrics

Poison Pen Letters

Dying alone would be a privilege
If all my friends were like you
Dying would be a privilege
If all my friends were like you

Rusted rail spikes and shards of glass give me rest
Poison the earth in anticipation
Rusted rail spikes and shards of glass
Poison the earth in anticipation...
Poison the earth in anticipation

So tear the pieces from the bone like you've torn us apart
We've built bridges just for burning
So light the fires in my eyes so I can watch my own demise
We've built bridges just for burning

Light the fires in my eyes
Watch my own demise, watch my own demise
So I can rip my eyes from their sockets, so I can rip my eyes
So I can rip my eyes so no flowers will grow

So tear the pieces from the bone like you've torn us apart
We've built bridges just for burning
So light the fires in my eyes so I can watch my own demise
We've built bridges just for burning
Just for burning

And so you carve your, your name into my
Into my heart with rusted rail spikes

So light the fires in my eyes
So I can let them watch, my own demise
So I can leave this all behind and be left with my solitude intact

So tear the pieces from the bone like you've torn us apart
We've built bridges just for burning
So light the fires in my eyes
So I can watch my own demise
We've built bridges just for burning
Just for burning
