Sirens

Falsified stars, look how they glow She'll be your martyr, die for the show You made your own light and though it consumes her It was your sacrifice Fear of the dark, unnatural doubt Send in the missiles, burn this place out There's never been a more worthwhile destruction  Oh, how she paid the price Sounded the sirens, but I didn't know you'd start the fire I read the warning label, didn't think you'd go that far Short on time, shorter fuse, no turning back and no excuse I was your honor, but you wanted someone you could use Abandoned creation, god of design In your beating heart, stars no longer shine You forget what was as she dies for your cause Bleeding the ocean dry Sounded the sirens, but I didn't know you'd start the fire I read the warning label, didn't think you'd go that far Short on time, shorter fuse, no turning back and no excuse I was your honor, but you wanted someone you could use Count me out, don't cut me down Jump overboard, won't let it drown  I held you up, 'cause you couldn't hold anything You let go of love Never whole, so you shattered me too I'll be a mirror, you can't see yourself in broken glass Avoided questions that I never thought I'd have to ask Wanted this, wanted you, you wanted someone you could use Return to sender, paint my picture now in your rearview Sounded the sirens, but I didn't know you'd start the fire I read the warning label, didn't think you'd go that far Short on time, shorter fuse, no turning back and no excuse I was your honor, but you wanted someone you could use Sounded the sirens Sounded the sirens Sounded the sirens, but I didn't know you'd start the fire
