Autopsy

The screen is glowing in the dark, a digital ghost

I’m haunting every picture that I love the most

You cut the cord so clean, didn't leave a fray

But I’m still bleeding out in the light of day

The sheets are cold on your side of the king-size bed

I’m replaying every single word you never said

A silent movie where the hero always dies

I’m drowning in the memory of your paper-thin lies.

And they say that time is a healer, a friend

But time is just a hallway that’ll never end

I’m staring at the door, waiting for the click

The silence in this house is making me sick.

I’m a wreck, I’m a ruin, I’m a beautiful mess

Still wearing the ghost of your hands on my chest

You broke it, you bought it, then you threw it away

But I’m still in love with the price that I pay

My heart’s in the gutter, but it’s beating for you

Black-and-blue rhythm, nothing I can do

Oh, it’s a dark, dark devotion

Drinking your poison like a magic potion.

I saw your car idling under the streetlamp light

Or maybe I’m just seeing shadows in the night

I’ve got a fever and the only cure is gone

I’m dancing with a skeleton until the dawn

You’re out there breathing air that doesn’t taste like me

I’m locked in a cage and you’ve got the only key

It’s pathetic, it’s tragic, it’s a work of art

How much I still adore the girl who tore me apart.

I’m a wreck, I’m a ruin, I’m a beautiful mess

Still wearing the ghost of your hands on my chest

You broke it, you bought it, then you threw it away

But I’m still in love with the price that I pay

My heart’s in the gutter, but it’s beating for you

Black-and-blue rhythm, nothing I can do

Oh, it’s a dark, dark devotion

Drinking your poison like a magic potion.

(Music drops to a pulsing, distorted heartbeat)

Break me again just to feel your touch

Loving you a little is a little too much

Burn the whole house down, I’ll stay in the fire

You’re my only saint and my only liar

(Screamed/Whispered)

I’m still yours. I’m still yours.

I’m a wreck, I’m a ruin, I’m a beautiful mess

Still wearing the ghost of your hands on my chest

You broke it, you bought it, then you threw it away

But I’m still in love with the price that I pay

My heart’s in the gutter, but it’s beating for you

Black-and-blue rhythm, nothing I can do

Oh, it’s a dark, dark devotion

Drinking your poison like a magic potion.

Drinking your poison...

It’s a dark devotion...

I’m still here...
