Tonight
It's that moment when you leave me alone
That I fall deeper into the darkness
That i stroke the blade and it bites me
That I write in silver and it comes out red
That is when I drown my pillow
That I taste the backwash of medicine
That the scale sheds pounds like my tears
That the cars cheer me on to just walk off
And I fall in line with my fellow Damned
Because we are all freaks, walking the tightrope
And I want to fall
Though i guess the net caught me
But you will never know that tonight was almost the end
That I fall deeper into the darkness
That i stroke the blade and it bites me
That I write in silver and it comes out red
That is when I drown my pillow
That I taste the backwash of medicine
That the scale sheds pounds like my tears
That the cars cheer me on to just walk off
And I fall in line with my fellow Damned
Because we are all freaks, walking the tightrope
And I want to fall
Though i guess the net caught me
But you will never know that tonight was almost the end
