V4.5-ALL

[Verse 1]
My eyes are tearing up
Like saltwater
When I touch those tears
Everyone's a lamb to slaughter

[Verse 2]
When I was fifteen
My mother told me
Never pick up the letters with the red streaks
If I did that
I'd surely die
Put on a wooden board
And was set out to dry, oh

[Pre-Chorus 1]
They told me I gotta run away, oh
They told me that I should never stay, oh
They told me, its all so unpredictable
But I know, oh, oh I know

[Chorus 1] 
I want to go
I want to go near the gravestones 
I light it up, just like those years ago. 
Where they put me on the stake and they watched my eyes burn.
Light it up, light it up, now I'm autumn-turned

I want to go
I want to go near the gravestones
And I kiss 'em, kiss 'em till it hurts.

[Verse 3]
The world is crazy
Like a race track
It's always so crazy until someone starts to crash

[Verse 4]
When I go numb
I can fully breathe
But then they twist the knife in and then I start to bleed

[Pre-Chorus 2]
They told me I gotta run away, oh
They told me that I should never stay, oh
They told me, its all so unpredictable
But I show, oh, oh I show

[Chorus 2]
I want to go
I want to go near the gravestones 
I light it up, just like those years ago. 
It's okay, they'll never know I cried 
It's okay, they'll always know I died

I want to go
I want to go near the gravestones
And I'll haunt 'em, haunt 'em till it hurts

[Bridge]
And then they chant my name
Oh yeah, they chant my name
But they don't know what will happen on Sunday
That's when the church starts 
It's where it falls apart
Why do they scream and cry when I say I wanna stay, oh

Oh, when they die
Oh, I'll cry
When I cry, I'll make sure I'm high
High as hell, fucked up, reachin' for the sky
Oh, I was.. seventeen, when they screamed
Then I look at their graves and I told them it was me

[Chorus 3]
I want to go
I want to go near the gravestones 
I light it up, just like those years ago. 
Where they put me on the stake and they watched my eyes burn.
Light it up, light it up, now I'm autumn-turned

I want to go
I want to go near the gravestones
And I hit 'em, hit 'em where it hurts.
