lyrics

hey there reverse lullaby 
wake me up dont calm me down but make me cry 
throw the mockingbird back to the broken sky
these hymns are not colorful 
the right decisions only leave me feeling dull
 the good times are too silently wonderful
no new joy and the sorrow's stale 
if I feel something once then the second time will fail
 and the dog won't bark
and i cant straighten my question marks
 hey there reverse vignette
 im scratching out the words that you made me forget
 even though you know that I don't want to yet
i dont wanna learn from mistakes
 i just want to live inside the chaos they make
 even if its only for a fleeting day
no new joy and the sorrow's stale
 i think im gonna fail 
cause the dog wont bark and i cant straighten my question marks
you say hi to me different now
 no laugh-cry kisses now
 but that don't bother me...
