[Verse 1]

Oh, my pretty precious stone

Just left me in ribbons

With my heart sliced carefully

You wear it like a cheerful bow


[Verse 2]

There's a light that you now adore

But the bringer is cast down

I have never been before

So unhappy in my whole life


[Chorus]

Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day

You were my first faith, made out of lies like all the others

Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day

I found my last light but then it died like all the others (all the others)


[Verse 3]

Oh, my painful fatal flaw

May your cruelty find you

May the scars you left in me

Dig into you twice as deep


[Chorus]

Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day

You were my first faith, made out of lies like all the others

Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day

I found my last light but then it died like all the others


[Bridge]

I know you'll look away while I'm crying

I know you'll wear that bow with a smile

Everything I gave you, it was wasted

Love further down, adore that denial


[Chorus]

I stopped feeling numb, now I have to be

Because I trusted you and I cannot trust another

Heart stops beating, what was brutality?

You were my last light so I'll die like all the others

Heart stops beating, beat like a brutal day

You were my first faith, made out of lies like all the others

All the others
