Mascara Queen Lyrics by Apparitions

Kiss Me Sleeping

2013

[Verse 1]
How in hell do you do this to yourself?
Could you force a change?
Past has been erased and it's a new day
She thought she was a failure, she thought she was a failure
Just scream
[Pre-Chorus]
Bottle after bottle, I'm feeling that if I don't live for tomorrow
Then maybe, maybe tomorrow never comes
As long as I'm in your arms when it's over, over, now
[Chorus]
I can't sleep with all this "love" around me
Don't put your arms around me
Bitch, you're like a stranger with a gun
As long as I'm in your arms when it's over, over, now, now
[Verse 2]
She covers her face, a face with battle scars and redness
Loveless, she can be a bit reckless and careless
I care less when loaded up with whiskey that's countless
I don't stop tonight, I don't stop tonight
Don't scream (Scream), just cover your face
My little sweet mascara queen
The comfort is sinking, your make-up is running
Don't stop tonight, don't stop tonight
[Bridge]
No one wants to talk about the ring that takes away your freedom
Just one denial left her standing at the chapel screaming
Oh, she doesn't like pressure that some people can love
Let's keep it simple, let's get drunk and take our clothes off
Shots off the hood of my delawarean, great Scott
Let's lose our inhibitions, bottle and bottle at a time
Just scream
[Pre-Chorus]
Bottle after bottle, I'm feeling that if I don't live for tomorrow
Then maybe, maybe tomorrow never comes
As long as I'm in your arms when it's over, over, now
[Chorus]
I can't sleep with all this "love" around me
Don't put your arms around me
Bitch, you're like a stranger with a gun
As long as I'm in your arms when it's over, over, now
[Breakdown]
We won't live this down
[Outro]
I'll tear my heart out
I'll tear my heart out
