And If You Don't Wake Up (EP)

Unarmed For Victory And If You Don't Wake Up (EP) Lyrics
1.Hollywoodn't Do What I Would

If it doesn't hurt,
Then you don't need to scream
What we see through the clouds is usually obscene
We may wake up one day and find that we are estranged,
If you don't wake up, night is your reality

I became a monster, a villain,
What have you
Baby let's play chase, oh let's play chase
I know you need this,
I know you need this stress
Baby let's play chase, I say let's play chase

And if you don't wake up,
We will make pretend that I never lost control!


2.Orichalcum

Don't lead me on only for letdown
Cause the troubles we've experienced are insignificant
I'm torn between the distance of good and better
I know this kind of thing happens to everyone

Is tonight exactly what you imagined
From the footage of those thoughts that you long for?
Maybe time has finally made us colder
But time spent between us is the only time we have

So break the mold and fill this ugly hole
That's been placed right at our feet,
So break the mold and fill this ugly hole
That's been placed right at our foundation

If you can't remember, then just be sincere...
I can't help but to cave in to your acts of half-heartedness
When I gave my all (When I gave you my all)
I can't replace what I've said before
Don't you believe in us anymore?

Is tonight exactly what you imagined
From the footage of those thoughts that you longed for?
Maybe time has finally made me colder
Forget times between us, there's no ever turning back


3.The Element Of Surprise Is No Surprise At All

Wake up! There's an earthquake raging all around!
I'm so sick of being trampled on the ground...
Funny, you try to hold tight with greedy hands
I was right to leave you dreaming at the dance

Small rooms stop my stimulation of pretend
Why don't you save your heart for someone who gives a damn?
I'll try to lead you in a blindfold, on a short bridge, in a
short while
Be my bride, be. my. bride.

There is reason for the ceiling caving in
You were a portrait worth stealing
The fumes are holding us, they're holding in,
There is reason for the ceiling caving in
So keep your dreams to yourself
We're just robots and you don't care

I've learned there is nothing
Nothing to live for, if I just don't live
I will watch your face become harlequined with distaste

Forget your hand in mine, I left no promises behind
I deserve the right to keep you from feeling alive again


4.Nuclear Reactions To Tragic Text Messages

My dearest, this moment is only an illusion.
A figment of imagination
Those clothes on your back is the poison kissing your skin
My fashion! Fashion!
The crowd is only a distraction of passion!
A useless reason to stay

I'm not everything you said I'd be,
Giving you every reason to think the worst of me
So take everything you thought you knew
And take everything you thought would be the truth

I had hoped you'd never see the wires tracing underneath my
exterior,
Chasing hysteria

Look what I have done
Where have you been?
Oh so slowly,
We're giving in

Giving into a city that separates.
So dress your best, and get in bed
Tell the world your only second best

There is reason behind this silence
with a sickening obsession to be important,
When all that's done, is ruined lives

Now the obvious, it surrounds us
This wont work out


5.I'm No Technophobe

I can't take this any more, the idea of isolation,
Trapped in a crowded room with only myself to talk to!

Sweating, heavy breathing, panic sets in
And I open my eyes, to an empty room
Filled with endless conversation

How terrible, how profound, that a person can feel this
destroyed
I'm so sick of being sick!
I hate the person reflecting right back at me
The disgraceful, the disgraceful ghost I see

I've been here, watching you, keeping you close
So disconnected, watching you...
You wouldn't know

Say what you will, but I can't commit to fables
I've been able to shape shift looking at your eyes
Open up your eyes, those dead eyes

There are not many stars left in the sky, I cannot keep you in
my heart
Memories never sleep, they never die, I'm so damaged, I can't
even lie
There are not many stars left in the sky

Brace myself, test myself, ask myself, hurt myself!
Brace myself, test myself, ask myself, hurt myself!

How terrible, how profound,
That a person can feel this down
If redemption is in my future, I'm unaware
I am closer to my final breath of air
