Bonus Track Dark Violent Things

In a barren clubhouse, papers drift through the empty breeze. One clings to the floorboards beneath a window, caught under the fire escape.

It’s raining here at home

And I am sketching out your face

Trying to use your bones

For all these dark, violent things

And nothing seems to fit

Nothing is the same

Without you

And I can’t tell you

Why the roads are long

And why my lungs are sore

I think I’ll touch myself

And think of you some more

Everything is lame

Without you

Chorus

Maybe I’m the monster

Maybe I’m the dream

I think I am the killer of all good, pretty things

Unless it comes inside you

Then I make the stars

Paint the world in midnight

And burn where you are

Fighting is the one thing I was always meant to do

And dying is the last thing that

I will do for you

Verse 2

Everything is cursive

This is what they say

The pretty way they write

Your pretty fucking name

But it’s subversive

The way they always say

I am not the same

Without you

Chorus 2

Maybe I’m the monster

Maybe I’m the dream

I am just the killer of all good, pretty things

Unless it comes inside you

Then I make the stars

Paint the world in midnight

And burn where you are

Fighting is the one thing I was always meant to do

And dying is the last thing, princess,

That I will do for you

I will do for you

Bridge

I don’t want my heart

Can I beat inside your chest?

Take all my stars

Because there’s only one fucking left

I don’t want my heart

Can I beat inside your chest?

I’ll beat and beat and beat

Until there is nothing left

But you

Final Chorus

Maybe I’m the monster

Maybe I’m the dream

I think I'm just the killer of all good, pretty things

Unless it comes inside you

Then I make the stars

Paint the world in midnight

And burn where you are

Fighting is the one thing I was always meant to do

And dying is the last thing

That

I will do for you

Outro (Slow, Talky)

And dying is the last thing

that all monsters do

Seattle fucking sucks

It’s always the same

Without you
