Set It Off - Duality Lyrics






The Haunting

"Come on in, boy," said the skeletons sitting by her closet door
Dirty secrets, happy memories and broken hearts across the floor
I was knocked out, heels over head
So you dragged me by my feet to a ghost town, where you buried me
No wonder no one heard my screams

Love's so alive, but it died in it's sleep
And now that it's dead, I live in your head and I will haunt your f*cking dreams

No one will love you like I did, will treat you like I did
So go on, wear that scarlet letter
No one will love you like I did, will touch you like I did
So good luck finding something better

Run away, boy, if you couldn't tell, baby's got a thirst for blood
A subtle system, breaking melodies, craving bullets from her gun
So I tripped, stayed, follow every word, little spirals in their eyes
Catch a lover, turn an enemy just to watch them burn alive

No one will love you like I did, will treat you like I did
So go on, wear that scarlet letter
No one will love you like I did, will touch you like I did
So good luck finding something better

Someday you may find that picture perfect guy
And I'll chase my words with poison
Until that day arrives, I'm sending to the sky
Fill your boy with only lies, oh

No one will love you like I did, will treat you like I did
So go on, wear that scarlet letter
No one will love you like I did, will touch you like I did
So good luck finding something better

No one will love you like I did, will treat you like I did
So go on, wear that scarlet letter
No one will love you like I did, will you f*ck you like I did
So good luck finding something better

N.M.E.

Remove the gag and step away, he's suffocating.
You pull the strings day after day.
That's why he needs a break from you,
Bid your ass adieu,
A break from you,
Bitch, your ass is through.

Oh, I hope he hears these words
Maybe this time he will learn...

You should escape,
Skip town,
No more excuses,
Abandon ship or drown.
No more excuses,
Do you even have a plan of attack?
A way to react?
Oh no, you should escape, skip town,
You're better on your own.

Ok we get it,
You're both a happy couple,
Why else go through the trouble,
Of posting it ten times a day?
Break from you,
Bid your ass adieu,
We need a break from you,
Bitch, your ass is through.

If you're both in black and white
And they ask who dares defy,
I'll be raising my hand high.

If anyone should object to this marriage,
Speak now or forever hold your peace.
Yeah, I got somethin' to say...

Forever Stuck In Our Youth

So here I stare
At an empty bottle full of confidence
Fuzzy faded with the poison in my head
It's an empty glass philosophy
I can't help it, I can't stop

I'm a zombie with no notion of a head
Grab a pocket and I'm looking like a mess
Full of sexual ferocity
I can't help it, I can't stop it

I'm living fast until I'm dead
It's in my head and seeing

Because I'm on a permanent vacation
We're young, we're young
We're dumb and we don't care, no
And I don't owe an explanation
We're young, we're young
We're dumb and we don't care, no

Forever stuck in our youth
Forever stuck in our youth

[?]
Getting greedy, get it in my veins
I can't help it, I can't stop

And so I drink
My cells away until I meant more than I think
I've got to know I'm a believer so I sing
A song about my body rebel ways
I can't help it, I can't stop

We're young, we're dumb, and having fun
We're young, we're dumb, we set it off
We're young, we're dumb, and having fun
Don't make me throw your.

Because I'm on a permanent vacation
We're young, we're young
We're dumb and we don't care, no
And I don't owe an explanation
We're young, we're young
We're dumb and we don't care, no

Forever stuck in our youth
Forever stuck in our youth

Why Worry

This sinking feeling sets,
It feels just like a hole inside your chest.
I know you're thinking,
No, no, no, no, it is easier said than done,
But please let me attest.
I know it's hard.
You're feeling like you're trapped,
But that's how you react,
When you cannot see the light.
But try and see the light.
I'm tellin' you,
No, no, no, no,
You're the only one
Standing in your way,
Just take a breath, relax, and tell me...

Why?
Please tell me why do we worry?
Why?
Why do we worry at all?
Why?
Just tell me why do we worry?
When worry is never helping tell me why worry at all?

Why do we insist,
On crossing bridges that do not exist?
Let's take these issues
Step by step by step, to work it out,
Day by day by day we're falling down,
But life goes on.
I've got some questions,
Are you sick of feelin' sorry?
Uh huh,
And people sayin' not to worry?
Uh huh,
Sick of hearing this hakuna matata motto,
From people who won the lotto,
We're not that lucky.
Have you noticed that you're breathing?
Uh huh,
Look around and count your blessings,
Uh huh,
So when you're sick of all this stressin' and guessin' I'm suggestin' you turn this up and let them hear you sing it.

Chin up, quit actin' like you're half dead.
Tears can only half fill how you're feelin'.
Don't worry, be happy baby.
Stand up, life is too damn short,
That clock is ticking.
Man up, if ya feel me,
Everybody sing it.

Ancient History

No, there's no denying chemistry this strong
Yes, pretend it's right but we both know it's wrong

Thinking about the storm advancing
Thinking about the lightning dancing in your eyes
But i, can't shake these memories I bring inside
Tension builds, I think we're under-thinking part time thrills

I know, I know how to drive you wild
You know, you know how to make me smile
But I need you to be my ancient history

Damn, pick up the phone, I know I'm drunk again
And you, know my intentions cause it's two AM

It's fun and games until we both get hurt
We play with fire cause we like the way it burns
No use in catching up a sinking ship
This is the last time we do this, baby
This is the last time you taste my lips

I know, I know how to drive you wild
You know, you know how to make me smile
But I need you to be my ancient history
I know, I know who you really are
You know, you know how to break my heart
But I need you to be my ancient history

You'll get cast away
Let me throw you cross the bed
Got you running cross my head
When I know I should be sleeping
But I can't escape
You're addicted to the last taste
Imagine that we trust
But you're begging for it, screaming for it
Here we go, now it's time to cut the cord
And abandon all support

I know, I know how to drive you wild
You know, you know how to make me smile
But I need you to be my ancient history
I know, I know who you really are
You know, you know how to break my heart
But I need you to be my ancient history

Bleak December

Give me, give me, give me the truth now
I promise I can handle it if you can
Cause you've been running by yourself for way too long
So give me any reason not to cut you out
You're far too gone, yeah

But you're pretending, know you are
Shift anything outside
When will [?] many cells
How do you even sleep at night?
As I'm driving back

In that bleak December, you're just too cold
But I need the answer, before you fold
You would hold your cards inside your chest
You can't control too far for that bleak December
And how full of shit you are, how full of shit you are

I really really really wanna know you
And all the fifty f*cking personalities inside your skull
If you stop trying to steal the spotlight and steal the show
The minute you will have a better chance of not dying alone
So I hit the road

In that bleak December, you're just too cold
But I need the answer, before you fold
You would hold your cards inside your chest
You can't control too far for that bleak December
And how full of shit you are

Now what are you to me
But a fly inside a web of lies you weave
You're not fooling anyone, not you, not me
So I wonder how you stay alive
When all I do is freeze

In that bleak December, you're just too cold
But I need the answer, before you fold
You would hold your cards inside your chest
You can't control too far for that bleak December

In that bleak December, you're just too cold
But I need the answer, before you fold
You would hold your cards inside your chest
You can't control too far for that bleak December
And how full of shit you are

Duality

I can't quite contain or explain my evil ways
Or explain why I'm not sane
All I can say is this is your warning
I can't quite contain or explain my evil ways
Or explain why I'm not sane
All I can say is this is your warning, duality

I have a confession that you will not believe
That you could not perceive this freak, gonna set it off
I have a confession, of a side that I hide
It's a cloak or disguise unleashed, gonna get it off

No, I'll never get away
Cause if I try to stray
It only holds me closer
No, I'll never get away
I'll have it any way
I'll never stop

I can't quite contain or explain my evil ways
Or explain why I'm not sane
All I can say is this is your warning
I can't quite contain or explain my evil ways
Or explain why I'm not sane
All I can say is this is your warning, duality

I have an impression, in the back of my mind
For the black in my tie contains our dirty thoughts
Make me an obsession, when you lock me inside
For the ride of your life unleashed, gonna get it off

No, can't count the list of things
I know are wrong with me
No need to just keep fighting
No, I'll never take the blame
So I'll just take the blame
I'll never stop

I can't quite contain or explain my evil ways
Or explain why I'm not sane
All I can say is this is your warning
I can't quite contain or explain my evil ways
Or explain why I'm not sane
All I can say is this is your warning, duality

I am good, I am evil
I am solace, I am chaos
I am human, and that's all I've ever wanted to be

No, can't count the list of things
I know are wrong with me
No need to just keep fighting
No, I'll never get away
I'll have it any way
I'll never stop

I can't quite contain or explain my evil ways
Or explain why I'm not sane
All I can say is this is your warning
I can't quite contain or explain my evil ways
Or explain why I'm not sane
All I can say is this is your warning, duality

Wolf In Sheeps Clothing

Hahaha, this is about you

Beware, beware, be skeptical
But their smiles, their smiles are plated gold
They seem so natural
But a wolf in sheep's clothing is more than a warning

Bye bye, black sheep, have you any soul?
Closer, by the way, what the hell are morals?
Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
Jill's a little whore, her alibis are dirty tricks

So could you
Tell me how you're sleeping easy
How you're only thinking of yourself
Show me how you justify
Telling all your lies like second nature
Listen, mark my words, one day
You will pay, you will pay
Karma's gonna come collect your debt

Oh well, oh well you stalk your prey
With criminal mentality
You sink your teeth into the people you depend on
Infecting everyone, you're quite the problem
Fee-fi-fo-fum, you better run and hide
I smell the blood of a petty little coward
Jack be lethal, Jack be slick
Jill will leave you lonely dying in a filthy ditch

So could you
Tell me how you're sleeping easy
How you're only thinking of yourself
Show me how you justify
Telling all your lies like second nature
Listen, mark my words, one day
You will pay, you will pay
Karma's gonna come collect your debt

Maybe you'll change
Abandon all your wicked ways
Make amends and start a new again
Maybe you'll see
all the wrongs you did to me
And start all over, start all over again

Who am I kidding?
Now, let's not get overzealous here
You've always been a piece of shit
If I could kill you I would
But it's frowned upon in all fifty states
Having said that, burn in hell

So tell me how you're sleeping easy
How you're only thinking of yourself
Show me how you justify
Telling all your lies like second nature
Listen, mark my words, one day
You will pay, you will pay
Karma's gonna come collect your debt

Tomorrow

Tell me I'm clear to breathe this air alone tonight
Take this all in, the sun will dim but I'm alive

They're gonna try to clip your wings
Lock you up and make you sing
But they'll never cage your dreams so fly away

Cause we've got tomorrow, we're the pages in the wind
We've got tomorrow, we're the tale that lies within
There's always another day, another night
A bittersweet blessing in disguise
Tomorrow, we're the authors of our lives, tomorrow

Eyes open wide, daydream at night, my thoughts collide
Some day they'll see, behind their screens, me shining bright

They're gonna try to clip your wings
Lock you up and make you sing
But they'll never cage your dreams so fly away

Cause we've got tomorrow, we're the pages in the wind
We've got tomorrow, we're the tale that lies within
There's always another day, another night
A bittersweet blessing in disguise
Tomorrow, we're be the authors of our lives, tomorrow

And oh, I've been obsessed, in search of success
Been blinded by the light
Sometimes you are the spider, sometimes you are the fly
Flying towards the sky, our starting line

Cause we've got tomorrow, we're the pages in the wind
We've got tomorrow, we're the tale that lies within
There's always another day, another night
A bittersweet blessing in disguise
Tomorrow, we're the authors of our lives, tomorrow

Cause we've got tomorrow
We'll be the authors of our lives, tomorrow

Bad Guy

I spend the night, yeah, doing ninety in a fifty five
Ignore the lights til I'm on your side
Because when you take this out on me my weakness
We are the heart of kryptonite

I stole the moon
I made the stars align
And I showed you how to fly
And you made me the bad guy

You paint the scene, with the colors of an enemy
All over me, and for your friends to see
I'll do just what you said
And now I'm hanging by my feet
Out of sight and out of reach

I stole the moon
I made the stars align
I showed you how to fly
And you made me the bad guy
I fought for you
I kept you safe at night
I would have risked my life
And you made me the bad guy

You made me the bad guy
You made me the bad guy
Yeah, you made me the bad guy

Guess I forgot, guess I forgot
What's lost is found, what's lost is found
It's so hard to see
Just show me how, just show me how the... with me

And I stole the moon
I made the stars align
I showed you how to fly
And you made me the bad guy
When I fought for you
I kept you safe at night
I would have risked my life
And you made me the bad guy

Miss Mysterious

Miss mysterious, who are you?
Who's the girl behind those eyes?
Just a stranger in disguise
Miss mysterious, who could you be?
Was the ghost of what we had?
Did you erase it from your past?

So I pointed in every direction
Looking for answers I'll never know

I said go, run for your life, and tell me I'm right
Or let me know when your heart went up
I said go, run for your life, and tell me I'm right
The saying goes, "If you love someone, let them go"

Miss mysterious, may I ask?
Does his sunshine lack my rain?
Does your pleasure lack my pain?
So delirious, casting your stones
With the blood through to my veins
Hoping that you'll lose your aim

Well it looks so bright with the lights out
I guess our stars forgot how to glow

I said go, run for your life, and tell me I'm right
Or let me know when your heart went up
I said go, run for your life, and tell me I'm right
The saying goes, "If you love someone, let them go"

Now baby you, you broke my heart
Now how do I get closure when you're only ever closed off
Tell me who gets in your place?
When these memories are telling me
That we were not always
Now don't even try to tell me that I should just relax
And we're not strangled and over the tracks
I tried to reach, I stuck out my hand but you turned around instead
So many nights living inside just to connect with you
Now I'm trying hard to win this but we lost all we can lose

I said go, run for your life, and tell me I'm right
Or let me know when your heart went up
I said go, run for your life, and tell me I'm right
The saying goes, "If you love someone, let them go"
