I was doomed from the start
And I held my regrets
I was covered in dark
And I wore it like death
Still I got a heart
That pounds in this chest
And my closet is full for days

But when your strength is gone
And the lights go grey
I'll sing your favorite song
I'll be your hit parade
With every breathe I've blown
I've failed a million ways
And everything I own
I tore to pieces

When the darkness comes
To conceal my wounds
I did it all for you
I did it all for you
My vacant eyes
Hide the dangerous truth
I did it all for you
I did it all for you

I can be smart, I can be misled
I can be dark and I can be wasted
I swam like a shark
Through a sea of this red
But your blood is all that I tasted

I know the things they say
And they were never true
With every step I take
It brings me back to you
I know we may be cursed
I know I'm not brand new
But for all it's worth
I live and die for you

When the darkness comes
To conceal my wounds
I did it all for you
I did it all for you
My vacant eyes
Hide the dangerous truth
I did it all for you
I did it all for you

I'll keep your secrets safe
I'll take them to my grave
And you can be my saint
When I'm in pieces
With no more lies to tell
We know this place too well
And we can share this hell
It all begins with you
