This Is For Keeps Lyrics
The streets are dark, my pulse is flat-lined
as I'm running to you
You sit completely unaware of what I'm about to do
The air is thick with tension much like when we are together
My fangs are aching as I'm pondering about you and I forever
As I round your corner
I am nervous that you won't be my lover
I knock three times and hope that my pale complexion won't blow my cover
You answer the door with your innocent face
Would you like to leave this human race, tonight?
Eternity will never be enough for me
and eternally will live our infallible love
My brain is pumping an unusual secretion of lust
Your eyes are softer now
and your chin, it drips a bloody color of rust
I am raising up the stakes of this round, I am playing for keeps
Oh, would you like to leave this human race, tonight?
Eternity will never be enough for me
and eternally will live our infallible love
Follow me into the sea
We'll drown together and immortalize you and me
Leave behind this lonely town
We're both better than this, it's not worth being down
Eternity will never be enough for me
and eternally will live our infallible love
Follow me into the sea
We'll drown together and immortalize you and me
Leave behind this lonely town (eternally)
We're both better than this, it's not worth being down (eternally)
as I'm running to you
You sit completely unaware of what I'm about to do
The air is thick with tension much like when we are together
My fangs are aching as I'm pondering about you and I forever
I am nervous that you won't be my lover
I knock three times and hope that my pale complexion won't blow my cover
You answer the door with your innocent face
Would you like to leave this human race, tonight?
and eternally will live our infallible love
Your eyes are softer now
and your chin, it drips a bloody color of rust
I am raising up the stakes of this round, I am playing for keeps
Oh, would you like to leave this human race, tonight?
and eternally will live our infallible love
We'll drown together and immortalize you and me
Leave behind this lonely town
We're both better than this, it's not worth being down
and eternally will live our infallible love
We'll drown together and immortalize you and me
Leave behind this lonely town (eternally)
We're both better than this, it's not worth being down (eternally)

the first time i heard this song, i thought it was about someone who was on the brink of breaking up with their significant other... but now i think it's about the complete opposite situation. it is such a creative analogy: vampires are immortal and with eternal life comes eternal love. it's a very beautiful way of immortalizing and preserving love.
i especially love how he sings "eternity... will never be enough for me." so beautiful; everyone has felt that way before.
this may be the sexiest song ever... the way the words are strung together with each pause is absolutely perfect. bomb emotion in the singing too. i cant even begin to express my connection to this song
"As I round your corner I am nervous that you won't be my lover I knock three times and hope that my pale complexion won't blow my cover You answer the door with your innocent face Would you like to leave this human race, tonight?"
these lines are ridiculously unbelievable...
two things:
thanks bro, if you could help with some of the other new songs too that'd be cool...
so i'm listening to this song right now on purevolume....but these lyrics arent even close to what they are singing.
they named the song on purevolume wrong...it's fixed now...it's actually "Break A Leg" that's up on purevolume...
What an amazing voice.
im in a situation where i hurt someone and im afraid we wont ever be together now...and this song fits.
only the spill canvas could write a song about being a vapire and make it sound absolutely gorgeous.
i've heard the vampire community approves of this song and loves the fact that it "accurately describes our feelings, thoughts and motives."
coincidentaly it also accurately describes my feelings thoughts and motives.
okay...so whoever said these arent close to the right lyrics...get their cd...its the exact lyrics..and whoever said this is called Break A Leg, no, listen to break a leg, its not this. "where did you come from where have you been , i dont know that much about you, and i dont think i want to anymore" thats part of break a leg its about someone playin him and leadin him on
