Protest The Hero - Hair-Trigger Lyrics

That sweet little read head's
got her hook in my back
She points her finger
And shows me what I lack

Her pale skin, it burns so hot in the midnight air
She paints the streets a shade of gray around my chair

Her hot breath on my skin and her scent on my fingers
Her taste is on my mind, it constantly lingers

On and on until I can breathe her again, on and on until I can believe her again, on and on until I can grieve her again, on and on until I can leave her in the end

Every kiss is a little sickening, I can feel deaths fingers quickening
Tightening my passage ways

If you can't count the years start counting the days

Try to remember she hates you, and though she might elate you, she tries to kill the great that's in you now

She's hand picked the fate that awaits you, but despite her words it's not too late...

I wrote a goddamn love song, to praise everything I hate and kids worldwide sang the chorus line and they sealed my picture's frame

She might run shit for right now, but I'll be damned if it's forever and always

As the chorus line fades away like friends in high school hallways. Oh, I got this feeling, that things will never be the same

What about those rainy nights in London? What about the crippling desert heat? What about all those times you swore you'd never leave me?

What about the hospital L.A.?
You took me back that night What about that blackened image in my mind? I swear I'll burn you with a new light

What about that frozen, dripping holiday bird that's cold? She's cold as ice...
