Happy tears fade fast
Sad tears tend to last
You've got your blood-stained heart
In your nicotine-stained hands
And your twenty-nine years
Did not help you pass
Oh - the roadkill - cheap thrill
Obstacle filled path
White lies - black dress
Brightest of darkness
You close your tearstained eyes
To your sliver lined madness
After twenty-nine years
You might want to confess
That we have made
A fucked-up place
That I can not erase
Sing to me
White lies - black heart
Tearing us apart
You breathe the frost-filled air
From my lungs to your lungs
After twenty-nine years
How much more to come?
Now we have made
A fucked-up place
That I can not erase
Sing to me
Happy tears fade fast
Sad tears tend to last
You've got a sad - sad song
And it's stuck in your aching head
And your twenty-nine years
Did not teach you that
Changing melodies
Will change your destiny at last
Now we have made
A fucked-up place
We're trying to erase
Erase
Sing to me
