Pierce The Veil - Misadventures Lyrics






Dive In

Dive in, take a breath
Blow the smoke through the hole in my chest
Still choking on the bed
Found your waste while the ember red keeps falling down and burning holes
Until the pillow and the mattress glow
Now I wanna be the tattoo ink that swims down through the needle in your skin
And I wish I was poisonous
Like a bottomless sound, like a violent drug
Do you remember the knife I kept?
The sharper it got, the more you wanted me to use it
I was lying to you, but you were lying too
So what's left to do?
What's left to say?
Stop making friends, just us
I'll decompose with you

So light the fuse inside your brain and we will detonate
Yeah
You threw your drink at the wall
It started raining wine and glass so
Stay and warm me with the Gentlemen Jack
Gold locks on the cage
Turn your diamond keys
Open the door you'll see me digging out my getaway

Hang the stars who pulled the pin out of my heart

And just because you're screaming for my attention
Does not mean I will waste my time
So hold your breath and swim under the ice

And modern anxiety
That motherf*cker never rests
Our adrenaline is kickin' in so play the beat faster
Head for the streets
We're the puke and decay
We're only dreaming, what's your problem baby?
Don't mean to break your heart
I'm the new fragrance in fermented jars
In area code (six, six, six)

And just because you're screaming for my attention
Does not mean I will waste my time
So hold your breath and learn how to swim underneath the ice

Kill me if I end up like you

And just because you're screaming for my attention
Does not mean I will waste my time
So hold your breath and swim under the ice

I know that it's not safe here
You did this to yourself but have no fear
Just hold your breath and swim under

Texas Is Forever

(Here we are)
Can you tell that story?
It's my favorite one
You f*cking disappointment
I can't entertain you anymore
These stupid states of mind
Everyone punishing me all the time
(Why?)
But don't cross your boundaries and think that it's cool
Misguided by darkness and lost on the road

But I'm such a sucker for the rain

Here we are, crashing once again into the centre of your moonlit face, our caved in ribs
Your tears, they fall on my tongue and our lips are letting go
As we laid on the side of the road

(Go)

Pull the trigger tight and watch our distances explode (explode)
If Texas is forever, where's your home sweet home?
If anything should happen to me, I'll want you to know
I've loved you since ever since then
Don't dance around me, I know what it means
No communication, cannot be received

But I'm such a sucker for the rain, yeah
(Oh)

(Here we are)
Crashing once again into the centre of your moonlit face, our caved in ribs
Your tears, they fall on my tongue and our lips are letting go
As we laid on the side of the road

(Don't chase your nightmares)

(Yeah)

Here we are
Crashing once again into the centre of your moonlit face, our caved in ribs
Your tears, they fall, our lips are locked in Lemon Groves
And I can never let them, never let them grow

(The side of the road)

So take a deep breath and chase it with mine
Your southern hospitality won't mind

The Divine Zero

Maybe I could swim into your thoughts like your drugs do
Paralyze your body
Sick and tired of waking up too
Burning eyes and cigarettes
I'm falling through the couch like a suicide mission tonight
My God, here comes the downside

Wild eyes of terror pray for sex on the beach while
Oceans of kerosene will soak into me
I'm not meant for this world, I just don't see the point
Don't think about it, don't over think about it

And life is a joke
But everything's riding on me tonight
Been counting the stars and scars
How I'm becoming a work of art

Desperate times and desperate measures
I come so close, my hopes are severed by the downside
A million waves in the ocean crash at once to make you smile

The whispered words "You'd better hide the bullets"
You stayed on the phone and talked to me day and night
Trigger my nightmare once again
And it's f*cking loaded in hand

And we'll let the fire rage
The smoke and the drowning flames
My bedroom computer light is the only menace to my new faux wooden blinds

In desperate times and desperate measures
I come so close, my hopes are severed by the downside
A million waves in the ocean crash at once to make you smile

Now, I only pray when it all goes down
I'll be surrounded by all of the ones I've loved and cared about
And then burn it down

(Go!)

(Down)

And life is a joke
But at least I can love you, naked and tattooed
Counting the stars and scars
And if the pain is a sound, let's slow it down

Desperate times and desperate measures
I come so close, my hopes are severed by the downside
A million waves in the ocean crash at once to make you smile

Now, I only pray when it all goes down
I'll be surrounded by all of the ones I've loved and cared about
And then burn it down

Your serotonin's gone
The kerosene is gone
The sunset is gone
So hold on

Your serotonin's gone
The kerosene is gone
The sunset is gone
So hold on

Floral & Fading

Rage in us
Your thirst I'm taking
Pull the plug I'll keep on shaking
And thrustin' about your apartment
Drowned on the blankets floral and fading
Painful lust, two aching guts
They tear through each other in the mirror
This happy vacation, there's no motivation
So hold me up

You say you want to chase the moon like fire
Well, together we can fake our own deaths here
Just wanna be alone and watch as you all just disappear

Oh
D-d-d-darker now
Kicked out and sleeping in your car
You roll the window down enough to dream and make-believe
Our lights knocked out, turned upside down
And I'm just a stupid motherf*cker
Can't figure it out
I want devil horns
I wanna breathe in your rush
I wanna leap when you want me to fly
But darlin' I don't mean to beg
But these thorns on the stem are nearly tearing up my skin

And now you wanna chase the moon like fire
Well, together we can fake our own deaths here
Just wanna be alone and watch as you all just disappear

Tony

Close your eyes
Picture you and I
Selling daylight for gasoline

So now we're gonna chase the moon like fire
Yeah, together we can fake our own deaths here
Just wanna be alone and watch as you all just disappear

Oh no
Just wanna be alone and watch
Why can't we be alone and watch?

Phantom Power And Ludicrous Speed

I'm mastering the art of miracles and flawless tragedies
Here I spend everyday in captivity
Devoured while the walls grow hands and teeth

I cried and listened to the rain in a rental car
One day somebody's gonna go and get pushed too far
But now I don't know what to say
Shall I deny my lungs their breathing rights?

So give it up, give it up
Don't let your mind slip away
Don't drink, don't get so high
Your beat's too obvious
Not gonna say what you want me to say
I guess you're right

The less you're seen, the less you are
But I don't even care anymore

Anatomy of a ghost, invisible friend
I won't pay for sanity, 'cause I don't wanna know
Some things are better left alone
But thanks for your concern and calls

I'd put a bullet in my head if I ever lost you now
Never even owned a bed
Just a blood red couch
You think you're getting the best of me
Disarm this smoke alarm
F*ck you, no one is gonna ruin all our fun
All that we want is this temporary release and distraction

Anatomy of a ghost, invisible friend
I won't pay for sanity, 'cause I don't wanna know
Some things are better left alone

It seems
I'm not everything you wanted me to be
I suggest you pray for a
A full recovery
A full recovery

Your words were written in
Your words were written in
Cold blood

Now

Even with phantom power and ludicrous speed
I can't run because betrayal won't come from my enemies

Anatomy of a ghost, invisible friend
I won't pay, pay for sanity so
Baby here's a toast to things much better left alone

It seems
I'm not everything you wanted me to be
In a dream on the way to a hospital I'll slip away
What's happening to me?

And as you drag the lake
And pull me out do you feel the shame inside you?
And as my body lays before you now, do you feel my skin?
It's cold

Circles

Listen, do you hear my heart beat thump over the monitors?
You pretend to close your eyes
Don't breathe in
Pieces of candy and leaks of light (leaks of light)
Paint the floor 'round me
Then without hesitating (hesitating)

You took my hand and then we both started running
Both started running
There's no place to go
Another bullet and we both started running
Both started running too
Save yourself, don't ever look back
Nowhere to go and so we both spin around in circles

Creeping through these labyrinths I find
Another dead end to the weekend
But is this real life?
Paper hearts turned ash begin to fly
Over our heads I begin
Screaming while the exit signs read "Heaven's waiting"

You took my hand and then we both started running
Both started running
There's no place to go
Another bullet and we both started running
Both started running too
Save yourself, don't ever look back
Nowhere to go and so we both spin around in circles

And I said, "Hey, what's on your mind?"
I think about my life without you and I start to cry
And I said, "Hey, it's alright"
We'll make it
I love you and I'll never leave your side

You took my hand and then we both started running
Both started running
There's no place to go
Another bullet and we both started running
Both started running too
Save yourself, don't ever look back
Nowhere to go and so we both spin around in circles, circles

Today I Saw The Whole World

Baby, pour over
Tell me, are we concrete?
What would you do without my perfect company to your undressed spine?
And I can hear you drag behind my car by your broken legs
Swallowing stitches in her sleep
As she stole my only view, may I never blink

While you stood over the pavement
I was biting the curb
Sick entertainment
But I'll bet it feels good coming down
Can't bear to wash out the wasted time
Between your lips and mine

Zero friends
Followed your voices into a sea of crosses
She blends in with the foxes gold and feels like home
Under the surface, my love
But beware, beware, beware
And take it slow tonight
We're on the other side of the road
I think we're bleeding out

While you stood over the pavement
I was biting the curb
Sick entertainment
But I'll bet it feels good coming down
Can't bear to wash out the wasted time
Between our lips
So c'mon and swing it back and forth just like
My heart is on a pendulum tonight
If your lungs are mine I only wanna watch your clouds linger in the darkness

Oh, can't you feel it?
You're feeding on my restless soul
Oh, can't you see that
It's never enough, it's never enough
Oh, can't you feel it?
You feed on my restless soul
Oh, can you see that
It's never enough, it's never enough

Today I saw the whole world
And I think heaven has a plot to take my life
Listen, I'm the one who made you
I'll be the one who brings you down
But this will be the last time

Bite on the curb
Oh, sick entertainment
I'll bet it feels good when you're coming down
Can't bear to wash out the wasted time
Between our lips
So c'mon and swing it back and forth just like
My heart is on a pendulum tonight
If your lungs are mine
I only wanna watch your clouds linger in the darkness

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Sing it one more time
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Gold Medal Ribbon

Are you up there?
Just give me a signal I'm reaching for you now
Because I remember the sound of your voice
But I don't remember what we talked about
It doesn't matter, that's a waste of time

So take off your rings and lipstick for me

[Chorus:]
I swear that I can hear you in the wind
You're singing to me and dancing in the halls outside again
I'm always listening

Send me off into space on this rocket invention
We'll look at the lights over the atmosphere
Eat gold medal ribbon till we die
Up here it's self-sabotage, suffocation, and stale taste of blood

[Chorus]

I'll teach you to love, oh
I'll teach you to love, oh
Again

[Chorus]

(I swear, I swear, I swear, oh)

Bedless

Surf to me
Whatever you want
And whenever you're breezing through
Keep tearing my world apart
As we lost the light
Wet cash on the bar
She fell victim to a violent wave
And died on the jagged rocks

But don't believe it's a never-ending summer 'cause they don't exist
Tied around your tongue in all the rage and spit
So why am I the one falling apart?

'Cause you don't even know you're an angel
Foolish am I for the times I come and go
These stars defy love, so I close my eyes
And sleep inside your worn-in bed outline

Splash over your body while you drown on me
You ain't seen nothin' yet, enter the galaxy of our sober demise
To the young and without type
In the morning hear all the birds sing, it never stops
Then, with tears in your eyes
You smiled dressed in Coppertone tan lines
Oh, oh, I hope you don't regret me

Don't believe it's a never-ending summer 'cause they don't exist
Tied around your tongue in all the rage and spit
So why am I the one falling apart?

'Cause you don't even know you're an angel
Foolish am I for the times I come and go
These stars defy love, so I close my eyes
And sleep inside your worn-in bed
And it won't be long 'till we drop this match
When I burn to your fingertips, you can throw what's left

So long, let's go and play those games you like
Let's go and play those games you like

But don't believe
'Cause yesterday I found her with her clothes still wet
Crying in the shower on her knees she screamed
"Why the f*ck am I falling apart?"

'Cause you don't even know you're an angel
Foolish am I for the times I come and go
These stars defy love, so close my eyes
And sleep inside your worn-in bed
And it woke me up
Like a heart attack
When you talk in your sleep I'll be there to slow your breath

Sambuka

Let's go, as you cry in silver rings and pose
In a second you'll be high and in the clouds alone (alone)
I never thought I'd see the day but I see stars around your face
Just like we're in the movies and you're scared
This was never my intention after all
So tell me, what the f*ck did I do?

Damn, not even from my lifeless, cold, dead hands
We're made to destroy

Tell me what you want until it hurts, I'll
Hang myself in lights and I will glow for you
The color, oh my god, it says you
Spinning on this circus ride, you're further than you've ever been
Stuck in zero-gravity we laugh (I think we're in over our heads)

I can't deny it's getting worse
Trust me, it's a blessing and a curse
Call me if you're crashing, we'll take turns
Hello, welcome to Southern California
Now go back home

Stand back, I can't believe
Do the math, the sky will fall anyway
Trust me, this is a blessing and a curse
This much I can't deny

I can't deny it's getting worse
Trust me, it's a blessing and a curse

Song For Isabelle

She paints in grey
She closes her eyes
Till fireworks and palm trees almost look alike
She looks up to me and whispers
"I won't be here in a year"

So I take the long road to think and wonder why
I can't sleep with all this sunlight
If there's still evidence of us
Why can't that be enough?

I don't mean to drag you down
You taste just like you always do

Isabelle hides so I can find my way
I'd give anything just to surround your dreams, oh

The envy of the dead
The sound of scissors and sleep
I can't believe you dreamed and pulled all of your clothes off
You're not supposed to drink with what's inside your purse
And not expect me to not to call you out

I'm guiding your chin to my lips
Using only my fingertips
All we have are parking lots and nowhere to go, if you love me
Then show me more

Isabelle watches me from far away
I'd give anything just to surround your dreams
I know you like when the temperature rises to a boiling heat
The chlorine and wine found, he sees through her nightgown
And everything fades away

The stars awake
But we can't see them out, so why pretend?
Is there a train that travels back to yours at five AM?
Or are we walking?
Car alarms and leaves that blow
They're calling out our names
But it's gone too far
Your butane mouth will spit me into flames

Sorry 'bout it, I can't help it I'm an anarchist in love
And I forgot to call you, I can't break you down while
I think about honey and the sweet New York sounds

Isabelle hides so I can't find my way
I'd give anything to carry on and on and on the same way
The temperature rises to this boiling heat
The chlorine and wine found, he sees through her nightgown
As Saturday burns away, oh

Back in the days, when I was young
I'm not a kid anymore
But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
Back in the days when I was young
I'm not a kid anymore
But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again

Misadventures is the fourth studio album by American rock band Pierce the Veil released by Fearless Records on May 13, 2016. Initially expected to be released during the summer of 2015, the album was postponed several times before its subsequent release. The album serves as a follow-up to the group's third studio album, Collide with the Sky (2012). It was produced by Dan Korneff and was recorded throughout 2014 and 2015 on Long Island, New York.

As on the three previous albums, the lyrics mostly detail personal experiences of lead singer and frontman Vic Fuentes, such as failed relationships. However, for the first time, the band takes up a contemporary historical situation in a song. "Circles" is about the November 2015 terrorist attacks in Paris, which had resulted in the deaths of 130 civilians. When writing the songs, Fuentes was occasionally assisted by his friend Curtis Peoples, Tom Denney and Brad Hargreaves of Third Eye Blind.

The standard version of the album contains eleven tracks, including the singles "Texas Is Forever", "Circles" and "The Divine Zero". The deluxe version, released exclusively on CD in select countries, also includes acoustic versions of "Floral & Fading" and "Today I Saw the Whole World".

Misadventures received mostly positive reviews in the English-language trade press. It is the band's first album to chart outside of the United States, namely in Germany, Australia and the United Kingdom, among others.

Musically, the album is mainly post-hardcore, but contains influences from other styles of punk and rock music, such as pop punk and pop rock.
Performed By: Pierce The Veil
Genre(s): Post-hardcore, skate punk, pop punk, emo
