lyrics

I've seen your broken heart
Stripped down and sold for parts.
You beautiful, broken thing,
You're a glass doll caught up in strings.
You can't heal your wounds with only tape and glue.

And what they say doesn't matter anyway.
It's time to go.
Let's get our bags and hit the road.
Just kill the lights, we'll disappear tonight.

Secrets lace your heart like vines,
wrapped tight to keep you inside.
Shut your eyes, fight back those tears.
Just pretend it doesn't hurt.
You're living like a ghost, but know you're not alone.

And what they say doesn't matter anyway.
We won't be
Just parts to this machine.
Just kill the lights, we'll disappear tonight.

(Disappear tonight
You and me tonight)

This world is full of wolves
But they’re liars to the core.
They don’t know you like I do.
They just hate the fire in you.

And what they say doesn't matter anyway.
We won't be
Just parts to this machine.
Just kill the lights, we'll disappear tonight.
