My Heroine (Silverstein)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OwngEer7lYQ

The drugs begin to peak
A smile of joy arrives in me
But sedation changes to panic and nausea
And breath starts to shorten
And heartbeats pound softer
You won't try to save me
You just want to hurt me
And leave me desperate
You taught my heart
A sense I never knew I had
I can't forget
The times >>that<< I was lost and depressed from the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine
You won't leave me alone
Chisel my heart out of stone
I give in everytime
You taught my heart
A sense I never knew I had
I can't forget
The times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine
I bet you laugh
At the thought of me thinking for myself (myself)
I bet you believe (bet you belive)
That I'm better off with you then someone else
Your face arrives again
All hope I had become surreal
But under your covers
More torture than pleasure
And just past your lips
There's more anger than laughter
Not now or forever will I ever change you
I know that to go on I'll break you, my habit
You taught my heart
A sense I never knew I had
I can't forget
The times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine
I will save myself


Your Sword Vs. My Dagger (Silverstein)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVWQS417T8M

I'm cutting through, your bleeding out
and I would tell the truth, but I can't help myself
red rushes out, dissect this nerve
and I'll stop myself before I reach my cell

I wasn't asking for the world

and you know that I'm not one to follow through
all these city streets the people look the same
and I can see your face, and I can hear your name
I wasn't asking for the world

you're stabbing in, permanent scars
and you'll justify it all inside yourself
you've finished me, my pulse is gone
and you're satisfied to put this all to hell

I wasn't asking for the world

and you know that I'm not one to follow through
all these city streets the people look the same
and I can see your face, and I can hear your name
I wasn't asking for the world

drink the poison when you think it's over
(drink the poison)
stabbing yourself when you think it's too late
tragic endings are your thing; you love them
(tragic endings)
you love letting go, the ending's the same
drink the poison when you think it's over
(drink the poison)
inevitable, Verona lives inside of you

I wasn't asking for the world

and you know that I'm not one to follow through
all these city streets the people look the same
and I can see your face, and I can hear your name
I wasn't asking for the world
