Bottle up and explode over and over keep the troublemaker below
Put it away and check out for the day
And in for a round of overexposure
The thing mother nature provides to get up and go
Bottle up and explode seeing the stars surrounding you
Red white and blue
You look and him like you've never known him
But i know for a fact that you have
The last time you cried who'd you think was inside?
Thinking that you were about to come over
But i'm tired now of waiting for you
You never show
Bottle up and go, if you're gonna hide it's up to you
I'm coming through
Bottle up and go, i can make it outside
I'll get though becoming you
Becoming you
Becoming you

I'm a color reporter
But the city's been bled white
And the doctor orders drinks all night to take away this curse
But it makes me feel much worse
Bled white
So i wait for the f-train
And connect through a friend of mine
To a yesterdaydream
'cos i'll have to be high to drag the sunset down
And paint this paling town
Bled white
So here he comes with the blank expression
Especially for me 'cos he knows i feel the same
'cos happy and sad come in quick succession
I'm never going to become what you became
Don't you dare disturb me
While i'm balancing my past
'cos you can't help or hurt me
Like it already has
I may not seem quite right
But i'm not fucked, no quite
Bled white
Bled white

Here's the silhouette the face always turned away
The bleeding color gone to black, dying like a day
Couldn't figure out what made you so unhappy
Shook your head to say no no no
And stopped for a spell
And stayed that way
Oh well, okay
I got pictures, i just don't see it anymore
Climbing hour upon hour through a total bore
With the one i keep where it never fades
In the safety of a pitch black mind
An airless cell that blocks the day
Oh well, okay
If you a get a feeling the next time you see me
Do me a favor and let me know
'cos it's hard to tell
It's hard to say
Oh well, okay
Oh well, okay
Oh well, okay

Cut this picture into you and me
Burn it backwards kill this history
Make it over make it stay away
Or hate'll say the ending that love started to stay
There's a kid a floor below me saying brother can you spare
Sunshine for a brother old man winter's in the air
Walked me up a story asking how you are
Told me not to worry you were just a shooting star
Sweet adeline
Sweet adeline
My clementine
Sweet adeline
It's a picture perfect evening and i'm staring down the sun
Fully loaded deaf and dumb and done
Waiting for sedation to disconnect my head
Or any situation where i'm better off then dead

everybody cares, everybody understands
Yes everybody cares about you
Yeah and whether or not you want them to
It's a chemical embrace that kicks you in the head
To a pure synthetic sympathy that infuriates you totally
And a quiet lie that makes you wanna scream and shout
So here i lay dreaming looking at the brilliant sun
Raining it's guiding light upon everyone
For a moment's rest you can lean against the banister
After running upstairs again and again from wherever they came to fix
You in but always fear the city's finest follow right behind
You got a pretty vision in your head
A pencil full of poison lead
And a sickened smoke illegal in every town
So here i lay dreaming looking at the brilliant sun
Raining its guiding light upon everyone
Here i lay dreaming looking at the brilliant sun
Raining its guiding light upon everyone
You say you mean well, you don't know what you mean
Fucking OUGHT to stay the hell away from things you know nothing about

I got a question mark
A got a need to always take some shoot in the dark
I don't have to make pretend the picture i'm in is totally clear
You think that all things have a way they ought to appear
'cos you know you know you know you know
You know you know you know you know you know
I don't
I dream
Don't know what you mean
Panic called you out and took you in
Giving you an easy game and letting you win
You're giving back a little hatred now to the world
'cos it treated you bad
'cod you couldn't keep the great unknown from making you mad
'cos you know you know you know you know
You know you know you know you know you know
I don't
I dream
Don't know what you mean
Said your final word, but honesty and love could've kept us together
One day you'll see it's worth it after all
If you ever want to say you're sorry you can give me a call

Thought you'd be looking for the next in line to love then ignore
Put out and put away
And so you'd soon be leaving me alone like i'm supposed to be tonight,
Tomorrow and everyday
There's nothing here that you'll miss
I can guarantee you this is a cloud of smoke
Trying to occupy space
What a fucking joke
What a fucking joke
I waited for a bus to separate the both of us and take me off far away
From you 'cos my feelings never change a bit i always feel like shit i
Don't know why i guess that i "just do"
You once talked to me about love and you painted pictures of
A never-neverland and i could've gone to that place
But i didn't understand
I didn't understand
I didn't understand
