Burning Down The Nicotine Armoire - Dance Gavin Dance

(And they would follow you home) 
(until we wind up dead) 
(checking your pulse) 
(we'd wait across the street) 
(under our tree) 
(outside the front door) 
(in autumns blind embrace) 
(but you wouldn't let her anyway and we run) 
(and we framed these moments) 
(till one remaining cold calculated thought) 
today your dream is dead 
and when you wake it won't be there 
today your dream is dead 
and sew that smile up with threads 
embrace this hope 
and let it flow 
you failed it 
to shy to know your worth 
hurt from insensitive behavior 
you're scared of what this really is 
and where this might lead us next 
don't let me go I feel it 
(it grabbed us by the throat) 
(it grabbed us by the throat and we continue to breathe) 
it's how I feel about love 
that it's not worth it 
(your license) i 
n failure dreams fall 
pushing nightmares over pavement 
walking these streets like a victim 
writing death threats in the wet cement 
you say I will lie 
and let me win this life 
you won't regret my love 
make you happy at your best 
you'd noticed all of this meaningless 
I destroy you 
even through 
the only things that I have left for your 
condescending eyes looking at each others 
white lies my heart ache is useless 
so quickly we'll address the shadows running 
from light 
It'll take this breathe 
denying what is left of us 
if you could just wake up tonight 
Id be with you under the sky with you tonight
