- 1. Saint Veronika
Lyrics
They found an empty bottle on her windowsill
The day her mother lost her sleeping pills
She was sick and tired of being invisible
Hard to see in color when you’re miserable
Veronika, Saint Veronika
You can’t leave this world behind
So be strong enough to hold onto us
We’re still right here by your side
No one ever thought that she was capable
And the damage done is irreversible
Now she clings to life inside a hospital
Like she’s trapped inside a frozen waterfall
Always said her life was never meant to be
Stuck here living someone else’s dream
Well beyond your window there is so much more
Even every prison has a open door
Veronika, Saint Veronika
You can’t leave this world behind
So be strong enough to hold onto us
It’s just not your time to die
And while the angels sleep
All of the devils are awake
Waiting to steal your love
Right outside of Heaven’s gate
And all the sacred hearts
Can’t numb the feeling from the pain
Cause when the drugs don’t work
You’re gonna curse His holy name
Damn God, yeah, God, yeah
Damn God, yeah, God, yeah
Veronika, Saint Veronika
You can’t leave this world behind
Oh Veronika, Saint Veronika
We’re still right here by your side
So be strong enough to hold onto us
You can’t leave this world behind
Oh Veronika, Saint Veronika
It’s just not your time to die

- 2. Line & Sinker (Live At The Horseshoe)
Lyrics
What you see is what you get!
Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker
Look at me and don’t forget!
Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers
Today I don’t feel pretty,
and I’m tired of trying to fit right in,
don’t think that your so great, cause being great must suck!
We don’t always see the bright side,
we all need ego suicide,
you hung my ID today, but I have licked my wounds and carried on
Everybody needs some sympathy
Santa seemed to miss my chimney
Reality is truly scaring me
So stand up straight and firmly say…
What you see is what you get!
Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker
Look at me and don’t forget!
Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers
My heart is in the right place,
so wipe that smirk right off your face,
don’t make me feel like that, cause that’s just plain not nice!
We don’t always see the bright side,
and I lied when I said I was fine,
you slapped my face today but, I have licked my wounds and carried on
Everybody needs some sympathy
Santa seemed to miss my chimney
Reality is truly scaring me
So stand up straight and firmly say…
What you see is what you get!
Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker
Look at me and don’t forget!
Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers
Everybody needs some sympathy
Santa seemed to miss my chimney
You stole my luck from me, and now my fortune cookie’s empty!
What you see is what you get!
Fishing for the answers with a line and sinker
Look at me and don’t forget!
Hard to get a grip with all these broken fingers
