Cassette Tapes Songtext

And when there is violence
The demons in my mind will triumph
Till my oceanside angel's
Left with bruises and crying

I reside in the comfort
Of all my physical pain
Run away 'til legs buckle
Validate I'm insane

Self-sedation through insomnia
To hide what is wrong with ya
Suffocate on desperate words
Perform to a crowd 'cause I need to be heard

Through stereos, cassette tapes
Car radios and highways
You're the only one I need
You're the only one...
The bottom's gonna bury us everyday
Take my heart and give away
All my notes and cassette tapes
'Cause I don't care about them anyway
The bottom's gonna bury us everyday
Take my heart and give away
All my notes and cassette tapes
'Cause I don't care about them anyway

No black and white picture
Can't hide the true colors I have inside
Sifting through the pages
A coloring book with empty lines

You were the complexion
That filled the void inside my eyes
Red were all the flowers
That had my blood so intertwined

She's the only one that made me feel something
When recently, everything's numb
And when I was gone, I'd write her songs
To prove to myself that I can feel love

How could I kill the person that's hurting her
When I'm the only one?
How can I cure the cancer that's killing her
When the cost is my own blood?

So I'll invoke screams 'til there's quiet
Lose my head in the riot
Terrorizing, victimizing
Crash this plane 'cause I'm the pilot

Record these songs line by line
To control my own fate
And when she forgets that she's mine
Put them on replay

Through stereos, cassette tapes
Car radios and highways
You're the only one I need
You're the only one...

The bottom's gonna bury us everyday
Take my heart and give away
All my notes and cassette tapes
'Cause I don't care about them anyway
The bottom's gonna bury us everyday
Take my heart and give away
All my notes and cassette tapes
'Cause I don't care about them anyway

Through stereos, cassette tapes
Car radios and highways
You're the only one I need
You're the only one I need

Across the world, on jet planes
On the road, and big stages
You're the only one I need
You're the only one I need

Across the world, on jet planes
On the road, and big stages
You're the only one I need
You're the only one I need

The bottom's gonna bury us everyday
Take my heart and give away
All my notes and cassette tapes
'Cause I don't care about them anyway
The bottom's gonna bury us everyday
Take my heart and give away
All my notes and cassette tapes
'Cause I don't care about them anyway
