Judas Kiss
The Academy Is...
take, take these words in
take them like you did the foreign excitement
you bleed, lust, choke, so was it worth it
did you get what you wanted, the silent type
did you even come close, did they let you taste it
i can see how the rush, and the heat, and the touch
of a stranger gets you going
you're feeling selfish, you've got the urge
don't bother keeping your heavy breathing down
for the one who can't hear you scream
never pass off your guilt lines
just wear them like a noose on your neck
i'll help you keep it tied tight
when you feel you're close to coming
just think about that perfect subtle demon
that you've been dreaming into the light, keep it tied tight
unlike the way you've become "city feature"
you'd love to let them rip you apart
rinse and repeat, until you feel clean
but when it's over he won't take back what is left
i can see how the speed, and the sting, and the wings
on the plane home make you nervous
oh, mr. shoddy content swept all your dignity under the covers
she'll be lying, keeping secrets, keeping quiet
now you understand what it's like to dive
take it back, taken back, she forgets you
now she pleads "forgive me again, it's the last time i will"
never pass off your guilt lines
just wear them like a noose on your neck
i'll help you keep it tied tight
you're the worst actor that i've ever seen,
but if this script called for liars, you'd play the lead
"when you've changed, i'll change"
what it's like again. what you don't see
while you sleep, three year deceiver, you're not fooling
never pass off your guilt lines
just wear them like a noose on your neck
i'll help you keep it tied tight
