[00:09.74](To Apple ,Happy birthday to you
[00:12.14]You are a beautiful girl)
[00:13.98]
[00:16.06]If I showed my hand shaking like a leaf,
[00:18.85]you might not understand, but I bet you'd believe
[00:22.41]this bat is inside, crawling around
[00:26.24]the cobwebs in my mind that I try to drown out.
[00:32.18]
[00:37.11]You said I look like a ghost, man I almost was.
[00:41.18]You said I need to let go, quit chasing that buzz,
[00:44.99]that picture in time, frozen like ice
[00:48.94]that girls keep repeating, beating me down to size.
[00:55.30]
[01:00.33]Well maybe I'm blind, just throwing darts in the dark.
[01:06.88]I didn't get what I want, I got what I need.
[01:11.21]Man, it hurts like hell down here on my knees.
[01:15.26]Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?
[01:20.75]
[01:23.41](I'm here waiting for you)
[01:25.00]
[01:26.74]The night is my friend, I blend in with the best:
[01:29.78]The vampires, the crooks, the felons and the rest.
[01:33.69]Now we can pretend that we really care less,
[01:37.47]and act like we love what we really detest.
[01:42.29]
[01:48.96]Well maybe I'm blind, just throwing darts in the dark.
[01:55.23]I didn't get what I want, I got what I need.
[01:59.76]Man it hurts like hell down here on my knees.
[02:04.03]Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?
[02:10.25]
[02:11.20]Make this go away, I'm begging please-
[02:15.08]there's little life left here for me to bleed.
[02:18.48]Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?
[02:23.46]
[02:31.07](Happy birthday to you)
[02:31.55]
[02:36.76]I'm looking up but I'm feeling down,
[02:40.33]since I'm cutting these corners, was cutting me down to size.
[02:45.90]
[02:51.33]Am I losing control or losing my mind?
[02:55.42]I know for a fact I'm losing my last place to hide.
[03:02.17]
[03:06.77]Well maybe I'm blind, just throwing darts in the dark.
[03:13.07]I didn't get what I want, I got what I need.
[03:17.33]Man it hurts like hell down here on my knees.
[03:21.41]Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?
[03:26.31]
[03:28.66]My pulse is racing, I can't catch my breath.
[03:32.09]This near-life experience scared me to death.
[03:35.91]Is this where I end, or is this where we begin?
[03:41.01]
[03:45.67]Or is this where we begin?
[03:52.76]End
