Make sure they've never heard it.

Make sure they've never seen it.

Just make damn sure they believe it.

Hold the pedal down, keep the gauges spinning around.

A high-speed heartbreak, rising from the ground.

Say what you need to say, it's not like you'll get another day.

You've always been a gamble, only when the stakes are high.

When the stakes were down, there was no need to try.

What about now? You know you know how.

Your passengers are memories, just along for the ride.

It beats having to apologize for how much you've lied.

Dashing hopes and dreams, but it's not really what it seems.

Reckless angel, oh, wreckless angel, where are you?

"I want to be loved, I want to be pretty, too!"

Keep your hollow words, turning back now would be absurd.

You'll burn out and go out like one million flickering lights.

Have them keep you close, prayers for you every few nights.

It's all downhill from here, no use slowing down in 5th gear.

All those words, they're nothing anymore.

The screaming and fighting, when you locked your door?

They'll lock it out, too.This is too terrible to be true.

So-called friends, did they ever try to care?

No use looking back when you're so high in the air.

A literal head in the clouds, no regrets allowed.

You've killed them. You've killed them all.

They said it would get better, when they answered your calls.

They weren't lying. You can't fault them for trying.

Looking back will do no good, it's too late.

You never made it to prom, you'll never have your second date.

Tombstone's words are all for naught, no one will know what you thought.

-------------------------------------------------------

But we'll know what we thought.

We tried to love and care, we told you a lot.

We still love and care, as your life races away, falling through the air.

So far gone now, you burned away so fast.

You, crying on your life; us, hoping to make your memory last.

 What it means to be original is not what it means to feel invisible.
