Parabelle - My Surrender

 

Did you notice
The violence
With my hands inside your hair?
The black, the white, the coldest night
The conversation's over, and you could bet it all
And you shrug it off all the way south
And you shrug it all off, and leave it alone

And my surrender keeps you from harm
And saves you for a life that's better than mine

So many miles
Rushed down your throat
And she sees through coloured eyes all covered up with smoke
And all the fairy tales, it's the blinding light,
It's your shut eyes all covered and choked

And my surrender keeps you from harm
And saves you for a life that's better than mine
And your forever severs the storm
The one that joined your eyes so steadily to mine,

And my luck's on the way,
But you came here and stole it all away

But what state are you in?
I think you're holding it all in
And what shape are we in?
What shape are we in?
Are we holding it all in?

What makes you draw your sin?
And what makes it coloured in?
Is what makes your fragile heart
And what makes it fall apart

WHAT MAKES YOU DRAW YOUR SIN?
AND WHAT MAKES IT COLOURED IN?
IS WHAT MAKES YOUR FRAGILE HEART
AND WHAT MAKES IT FALL APART

And my surrender keeps you from harm
And saves you for a life that's better than mine
And your forever severs the storm
The one that joined your eyes so steadily to mine

And my luck's on the way,
But you came here and stole it all away
(What state are you in?) 

 

Parabelle - (I Was Told) To Never let You Go

 

The sands of time have run their course
She dodged them once so she could find her comfort
From all the things she does to hurt her
And when she goes to close her eyes to sleep for the night
She hears opinions, they're not yours or mine
I say just throw this down and break this
Crushing hold they have on your soul

I was told to never let you go
I promise you've the prettiest of eyes
It hurt so bad but you wont let it show
I'll never let you know
It feels like the past and now inside
Common sense will never let you go

She stands out in crowd
She thinks out loud to save her breath
With a portrait of her parents death
And I can show you stars
If this is who you are
You're far more priceless than the price that's spent
A choice like this gets harder just to fight through
So let this go
And we'll break this crushing hold
They have on your soul

My advice is to take all they steal right back
Whether we hate or unite
Make the ones who are hurting feel right

I was told to never let you go
I promise you've the prettiest of eyes
It hurts so bad but you won't let it show
I'll never let you know
It feels like the past and now inside
Common sense will never let you go

I was told to never let you go
To never let you go! 

 

Parabelle - In The Shadows

 

A few more breaths that you can't count
At least not on me
If you'd shut your eyes, I'd shut my mouth
Cuz you mean nothing to me
And I would lift you up
So I could let you fall cuz I
Was going nowhere from the start
And nowhere's where it ends

And I will leave you in shadows
Of where I used to be
You won't be afraid
But I was wrong

I lived so you wouldn't be alone
But you deserve better than this,
Better than this!
Don't you know?

A few more lessons you can count,
If I said
We were missing all the points
But still had it all
And I would let you know
How the story goes, and how...
And how it starts and where it ends
With everything you said…

And I will leave you in shadows
Of where I used to be
You won't be afraid
But I was wrong

I lived so you wouldn't be alone
But you deserve better than this,
Better than this!
Don't you know?

And don't you know the hate that's on my heart is from your hands,
When you let it go,
I guess it's all in the way you suffer for my love,
You better let it go

Before it gets the best of you,
And who wins,
When we both lose a lot,
I loved you,
At least so I thought
But I was wrong!

I lived so you wouldn't be alone
But you deserve better than this,
Better than this!
And I deserve to be alone!
To be alone!
Cuz you deserve better than this!
You deserve better than this,
Don't you know?

It's all in the way you suffer... 

 

Parabelle - You Kept Me

 

You said it right so many times it still repeats in my mind
I hate the way you make the words useless and stale instead and I have seen enough to know
We're gonna fall down, if there's a reason to stop then I can't find it right now
Cuz we're both giving in, step out of yourself and give me everything

You kept me so caught up in your wreckage
My sins are burned in and they're calmed by the comfort of your skin
Cuz I am the ocean and you are the rain
We might be different but we're one in the same

You fell in love and you shouldn't of, it still repeats in your touch
I hate the way we miss the mark just left of center there
Disheveled self-inflicted, you're borderline safe and sound but you're the one that's making me bad
We don't stop when it hurts so it gets even worse

You kept me so caught up in your wreckage
My sins are burned in and they're calmed by the comfort of your skin
Cuz I am the ocean and you are the rain
We might be different but we're one in the same

She said your back's against the wall, I push her back against the wall

You kept me so caught up in your wreckage
My sins are burned in and they're calmed by the comfort of your skin
Cuz I am the ocean and you are the rain
We might be different but we're one in the same

You made it rough, I made it rough till we both had enough 

 

Parabelle - Are You Alarmed?

 

Listen to me
Cause I'm the one
You wanted to feel peace again

A dollar says the angel was a quitter
You're not the only one
Taken for granted
Has it gotten worse?
Just take it till it works

He thought he wouldn't hurt again
Cheap threats
Beg for you to be a man
What makes a heartless nightmare
Beat you down again?

So far away
I know it's wrong
But it looks so good on paper
(I don't understand) First you're up, then you're down
And you fight the urge to kill again

A better guess would be the devils' undercover
She said the red pills kept her together
Now her head is full of words
And she twists them till it hurts

(Twists them till it hurts) [x2]

Hated
One sided insight
She hopes you found the cure
The total or the worth

So far away
I know it's wrong
But it looks so good on paper
(I don't understand) First you're up, then you're down
And you fight the urge to kill again

And I know
Some things are worth the wait
And I know
That you'll be reaching out
Are you alarmed?
Are you alarmed?

This is the piece that resisted
This is the piece that you're missing
A little luck
This is a major commitment
This is the last time you'll face it
This is his last ditch resistance
This is the road to persistence
If this is the major attraction
Are you alarmed?

This is the way you can fix it
This is the way you convince me?
This is the way you can fix me
This is the way you fuck off

So far away
I know it's wrong
But it looks so good on paper
(I don't understand) First you're up, then you're down
And you fight the urge to kill again 

 

Parabelle - Your Starry Eyes

 

If I had known
That this would be the last time we'd be alone
Well I know,
The words I chose would not have been the ones I spoke
If I had known...

And I just want to know you one more time
And say that you make me feel alive
If everything has died,
You better star out your eyes

If you had known
That this would be the last time we'd be alone
Would you be unaware
That your forgotten fallen star was burning out?
But it lit my whole life...

And I just want to know you one more time
And say that you make me feel alive
If everything has died,
You better star out your eyes

Do you even care
That you gave up searching somewhere,
When we fall out, of love,
We fall out alone somewhere...

And I just want to know you one more time
And say that you make me feel alive
If everything has died,
You better star out your eyes

We fall out, of love...
Your starry eyes will never make us even. 

 

Parabelle - Us (Walk Away)

 

(Did I cause you to change?)

I wanna say, I'll always be your fool
Cuz everything you are is frankly beautiful
You always said you would refuse to bear all the bad news
It lets you stay strong and wait for me
To paint myself out of your scenery
So you won't notice me

Did I cause you to change? We never walk away, walk away
Can I bother you to stay and never walk away?

(Did I cause you to change?)

They're writing tales of how we touched
Is that the same reflection that he got
And I will break us down to a little bit of reason
And a whole lot more, passive tidal waves
There's a pond that we wait across and you're still skipping stone
And I will wait till you walk around, you never fought for me

Did I cause you to change? We never walk away, walk away
Can I bother you to stay and never walk away?

We kill them all, white knuckle failure
We kill them all and what I want is dead and shaded in from all the side lines

I know you and you know me, we both know how
But don't know why we know the words
We both know how to hurt

Did I cause you to change? We never walk away, walk away
Can I bother you to stay and never walk away?

Or we could just kill them all, slight second chances
We kill them all, how about now for us?
