Veruca Salt - Ghost Notes Lyrics
The Gospel According To Saint Me
I wanted to live, so I pretended to die.
I had to shut down cash out and get buried alive.
Out of the black and into the daylight
You had to dig me out, dust me off and pull me off the cross and
Break me back open, break me back open, look inside
Break me back open, break me back open, shine a light,
It's gonna be bright
It's gonna get loud (it's gonna get loud, it's gonna get loud)
It's gonna get heavy (it's gonna get loud, it's gonna get heavy)
I wanna to kiss the ground and lay down the gospel according to St. me
I'm out of the vault (out of the vault, out of the vault)
Where no one can fault me (out of the vault, where no one can fault me)
I'm not a black box fort knox time to change the locks
And break me back open, break me back open look inside
You've got to break me back open, break me back open and shield your eyes
Yeah when you kick the door open, kick it wide open,
surprise, surprise, it's gonna be bright
I'm not a black box fort knox time to change the locks
And break me back open, break me back open look inside
You've got to break me back open, break me back open and shield your eyes
Yeah when you kick the door open, kick it wide open,
surprise, surprise, it's gonna be bright
I wanted to live, (I wanted to live, I wanted to live) so I pretended to die.
Out of the black (out of the black, out of the black) and into the daylight
It's gonna get loud (it's gonna get loud, it's gonna get loud) it's gonna get heavy

Black And Blonde
What's that sound [x3]
You got me hanging on and listening to confessions on the telephone
Hear me now [x3]
You beat me black and blonde somebody tell me what the hell is going on
You beat me black and blonde
Take it like a blonde [x2]
You leave me black and blonde
Take it like a blonde [x2]
Black and blonde
Break me down into the gun
Somebody tell me what the hell is going on
Dumb it down [x3]
I'll spell it out for you,
I'm the greatest f*cking thing that ever happened to you
It's over now [x3]
What a way to go
Cause no one ever really has to know
Cause he was just another bloody so-and-so
You beat me black and blonde
Take it like a blonde [x2]
You leave me black and blonde
Take it like a blonde [x2]
And I'll take you on
Until I'm gone
Somebody tell me what the hell is going on
Sleep little child
I forgive you
And for the tears I cost
I'm sorry, too
Black and blonde
Take it like a blonde
You leave me black and blonde
Take it like a blonde
And I'll take you on
You break me down
And I'll take you on
Until I'm gone

Eyes On You
I'm falling awake at daybreak
and I've got my eyes on you
I'm playing it back the heart attack
that opened my eyes to you
Wait, don't grow up yet
Cause it's late
We're wired and underslept
I can trace arrows and evidence back
to you
Rewinding again to the moment
when I lost the lives to you
You're holding my gaze
I'd rearrange the clouds in the skies
for you
Wait, don't grow up yet
Cause it's late
We've gotta stay up for the end
I can trace arrows and evidence back
to you
Out under the stars I hear you say
I am your sun and you're my shade
Hey
Hopscotch in the driveway after dark
These are the thorns and these are shards
Float on the hops
I'm falling awake at day break
and I've got my eyes on you
Wait, don't grow up yet
Cause it's late
I'm wired and underslept
I can make sense of the secrets left
I can trace arrows and evidence
And we hide all the letters sent
And we drive reckless and radiant
And we lied

The Sound Of Leaving
I'm awake and you're asleep
Brick house is breathing, breathing
Lying in the castle deep
Sink down, I'm dreaming, dreaming
Skin cold against the sheets
Deep south is freezing, freezing
I'm freezing
Hold onto me
It's the sound of leaving
Hold onto me
That's the sound of leaving
Slip out into the stars
Smoke saddle in your pocket
Suitcase is in your car
You don't stop, you just can't stop it
Someday, somehow
You'll remember when you lost it
The day you lost it
Hold onto me
It's the sound of leaving, leaving
Hold onto me
It's the sound of leaving, leaving
That's the sound
Pinned down against your will
Feel the planets rearranging
I lie here very still
The tiny whispers, the shiny whispers
Oh no, oh wow
The earth beneath our feet is shaking
And now you're breaking
Hold onto me
That's the sound of leaving
That's the sound

Love You Less
I got this feeling and I hope it never ends
In the nighttime I'm your favorite,
in the daytime we're just friends
And you know that's how I want it, yeah
I really must confess
That I see myself more clearly when I love you less
I love you less
Don't you know that I can't see
When you stand in front of me
And you know that I can't breathe
When you're right on top of me
Can't you see that I'm lonely
When you're lying next to me
I feel so free (now that you're behind me)
Free (now that you're behind me)
Free
I count my blessings and I count my lucky stars
I can count you on my fingers
That's how small your are
And I'm really glad it's over, yeah
I'm glad I passed the test
Because I used to love you more
But now I love you less
I love you less
Don't you know that I can't speak
When you're talking over me
And you know that I can't breathe
When you're right on top of me
Can't you see that I'm lonely
When you're lying next to me
I feel so free (now that you're behind me)
Free (now that you're behind me)
Free
Falling over and I got you
It's like a habit and I have to
It never stops, no it never stops
But this equation's not about you
It's only math and I subtract you
You put the 3 before the 1, 2
I feel so free (now that you're behind me)
Free (now that you're behind me) [x8]

Laughing In The Sugar Bowl
I'm awake and you're asleep
Brick house is breathing, breathing
Lying in the castle deep
Sink down, I'm dreaming, dreaming
Skin cold against the sheets
Deep south is freezing, freezing
I'm freezing
Hold onto me
It's the sound of leaving
Hold onto me
That's the sound of leaving
Slip out into the stars
Smoke saddle in your pocket
Suitcase is in your car
You don't stop, you just can't stop it
Someday, somehow
You'll remember when you lost it
The day you lost it
Hold onto me
It's the sound of leaving, leaving
Hold onto me
It's the sound of leaving, leaving
That's the sound
Pinned down against your will
Feel the planets rearranging
I lie here very still
The tiny whispers, the shiny whispers
Oh no, oh wow
The earth beneath our feet is shaking
And now you're breaking
Hold onto me
That's the sound of leaving
That's the sound

Come Clean Dark Thing
Nightshade, a pretty flower
You drink the poison and we count the hours
You black out, holding my hand
I dream of letting go but I just can't
Come clean, dark thing
You can breathe the air again and I'll care again
Come clean, dark thing
Look up to the sky again and I'll try again
Come clean, dark thing
You can breathe the air again [x4]
and stop pretending
Dark sky, you're barely breathing
You're still alive but you're already grieving
A headstone, look at what you've become
You see the sadness at the center of everyone
Come clean, dark thing
You can breathe the air again and you'll care again
Come clean, dark thing
Look into the sky again and you'll try again
Come clean, dark thing
You can breathe the air again [x4]
and stop pretending
How we sleep, how we lie
How we learn to say goodbye
You are safe here, you are right here
You could promise you could try
All your love, all your life
All your days of wasted time
Come clean, dark thing [x3]
You can breathe the air again [x4]
and stop pretending
If you say that you want me, too
If you say that you need me, too
If you say that you love me, too

Im Telling You Now
I'm awake and you're asleep

Triage
It's now or never, whether we try
I can't remember why
And I can't believe that you were together
I don't believe you let her inside
I can't believe she wrote me the letter
Why did you bother to leave me alive
Alive and ticking inside [x2]
We said forever, until we die
But we're all offenders
We all lie
I can't believe that you were together
I don't believe you let her inside
I can't believe she wrote me the letter
Why did you bother to leave me alive
Alive and ticking inside [x4]
I don't believe that you were together
I can't believe you let her inside
I don't believe she wrote me the letter
Why did you bother to leave me alive...

Lost To Me
I'm awake and you're asleep
Brick house is breathing, breathing
Lying in the castle deep
Sink down, I'm dreaming, dreaming
Skin cold against the sheets
Deep south is freezing, freezing
I'm freezing
Hold onto me
It's the sound of leaving
Hold onto me
That's the sound of leaving
Slip out into the stars
Smoke saddle in your pocket
Suitcase is in your car
You don't stop, you just can't stop it
Someday, somehow
You'll remember when you lost it
The day you lost it
Hold onto me
It's the sound of leaving, leaving
Hold onto me
It's the sound of leaving, leaving
That's the sound
Pinned down against your will
Feel the planets rearranging
I lie here very still
The tiny whispers, the shiny whispers
Oh no, oh wow
The earth beneath our feet is shaking
And now you're breaking
Hold onto me
That's the sound of leaving
That's the sound

The Museum Of Broken Relationships
In the garden of rejection, the broken people go
There's a hook where you can hang your heart
Frame it on the wall and let it go
Halalala let it go
Exhibition is of the essence, it's what we come here for
Put the relics of your lost love on display
And lock the door
Halalala lock the door
Snake, always kissing her and this and that
Snake, going underground to skin the cat
Snake, always sneaking out and creeping back
Snake, I set the trap
He's a cheater, a bottom feeder
In this box a lock of his hair
Jubilation, he loves me again
Halalala I don't care
Halalala I don't care
Halalala halalala
Halalala I don't care
Jubilation, he loves me again [x4]
Jubilation...

Atlernica
I made it
I made it out
Just in time to hear the engines stop
I made it
I made it back
Long enough to sail across your sky
Now I'm whole...
Dislocated
Complicated everything
When it was so simple to love you
I hate it
I hate it now
How you opened up the sky for us
And we fell through
Stepping over bodies, I can't find you
Now I'm whole...
This is Alternica
Desert and the plains
And the ocean waves
Oh brave Alternica
Remember what you know
And you're not alone
All hail Alternica
What you learn is gone
And we're going, going
And in the end it comes around
Comes around again
[x4]
