Senses Fail - Martini Kiss Lyrics






There's poison in my drinking glass
Don't stop just sip it down
And in a swirling masquerade of sound
My body hits the ground
I'm beautiful when I'm asleep
Martini kisses land
On my blistered bloody scarlet lips
The bottles in my hand

Burn out, not fade away [x6]

I'll speak in riddles so you can understand
I'll draw in pencil so you can trace with pen
So in love with me like sand to wet feet
I'll write both our names into the wet concrete

We're glistening like silver spoons
Beneath the summer night
Oh can you smell the subtle hint of frost
As the flowers start to cry
The autumn winds are bringing graves
To all the emerald trees
They're so beautiful in their dismay
The colors slowly bleed

Burn out, not fade away [x6]

I'll speak in riddles so you can understand
I'll draw in pencil so you can trace with pen
So in love with me like sand to wet feet
I'll write both our names into the wet concrete

The pawns will fade away
(Burn out, not fade away)
(Burn out, not fade away)
The king's at his checkmate
(Burn out, not fade away)
(Burn out, not fade away)
And I sit here with a sick grin
Choking as I laugh until I die.

Burn out, not fade away [x4]

  9. J.... W....

    Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.
    -2 Corinthians 5:16

    And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
    And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
    -Acts 16:30-31
    “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
    -John 3:16
    And he (Jesus) said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

    4. Let It Enfold You

    Their first two albums are the best.

    J.... B....

    I had let it enfold you like a year before it actually came out. As im sure most fans did at the time. I agree about the earlier music being best! I was so excited when it actually came out i ran to buy it asap.

  45. j.... ....

    @Hopestar3600 the lyrics arent good on this album, good lyrics are on the next fewq albums but let enfold you was just trying to act dakr and failing, musicaly this album is great but lyrics can ruin a song and in this case a album

  46. j.... ....
