The First Punch - Pierce The Veil

Blood on your tongue with a crass embrace

I found a kiss on the day we met and said

«This will be a night we won’t forget»

Speak slow now, I don’t want to miss when you cry

Glass over diamond blue eyes

And it’s good enough to make me wanna fall in love

So move a little bit closer, hear the sound of your voice

We’re screaming, «Why can’t we just be friends?»

It’s not that easy, but it’s half of the fun

To see you throw the first punch

Now!

It’s such a shame you had to go and run your mouth

Life is what you make it, but at least I’ve got real friends!

Can you hear me now?

Now that I’m a big star!

Fuck you and your new love for yourself!

(It don’t mean shit)

And it’s good enough to make me wanna fall in love

So move a little bit closer, hear the sound of your voice

We’re screaming, «Why can’t we just be friends?»

It’s not that easy, but it’s half of the fun

To see you throw the first punch

Now, I’ve got so much to give

But I would kill just to feel less invisible

And you’ve got so much to learn about gravity

So live it up baby, don’t look down

Live it up baby, don’t look down

And it’s good enough to make me wanna fall in love

So move a little bit closer, hear the sound of your voice

We’re screaming, «Why can’t we just be friends?»

It’s not that easy, but it’s half of the fun

And I saw it coming when you threw the first punch

You threw the first punch

Now it’s your turn to run!

This is the breath that will take my life

There’s no future but matches and propane

And through the mutated words I write

Kill it fast and never watch it die
