I want goosebumps and tears 
To dump out my fears
Make you feel something real, what I hear
I want no comfort, I want what's genuine 
I want adrenaline
Heart racing, no medicine 

I wanna make you feel like you're aching, awaking
Like your heart is breaking
Demons lay upon your chest
They'll Take the air inside your lungs
That sinking feeling that's breathtaking 
Feeling like you are forsaking 
Flaking, mistaking, making and taking
But honestly I just want honesty
And open our eyes to see
Nothing groundbreaking
I just wanna leave you shaking and thinking
Step out of file, no faking
And join me in this overtaking 

I don't want what I see
Guess it's not meant for me
This is my requiem
I'll lay in my grave
But don't spend that premium
Sing a dark song
Out of tune, as a throng
Leave by dawn
Lower me to my home
Funny I've always been withdrawn
Congregate with worms, won't miss this place when I'm gone

Turn off the left side of your brain
And sing with me this one refrain
A hymn and anthem so arcane
My requiem, spill my head to entertain

My requiem, spill my head to entertain
My requiem, spill my heart to entertain
My requiem, spill my head to entertain
My requiem, spill my heart to entertain

I want anger, disgust
Dialogue, not just something discussed 
I want your trust
Morning may come and we return to dust
I want joy, and ecstasy 
It's cold in here, no clemency
I want anticipation
Like you can't wait for that sensation 

I wanna open up my heart and mind to you
Because I choose to pursue
Images reflecting love in this and the next life too
It's never been about the revenue
It's all about the rendezvous 
Love through every situation 
Live in relation
No accusation, just in adoration 
Animation for my aspiration 
Giving all my life you can call that dedication 

Before I'm done there's one thing I must do
This world only prescribes synthetics for you
I'm here to break the mold and live out what's true
Music with meaning's the meaning since my debut
We can Sing a dark song
Out of tune, as a throng
Leave by dawn
Lower me to my home
Funny I've always been withdrawn
Congregate with worms, won't miss this place when I'm gone

Turn off the left side of your brain
And sing with me this one refrain
A hymn and anthem so arcane
My requiem, spill my head to entertain

My requiem, spill my head to entertain
My requiem, spill my heart to entertain
My requiem, spill my head to entertain
My requiem, spill my heart to entertain
