Oh, I'm giving up
The one I love
I'll conduct the great disaster
To scar my skin, to own this hurt
They offered their hearts and we tore them apart
They offered their blood and we left them so parched
I don't know if I can give you anything you want
Go on and give me the gun
Never mind what I've done
They left me no choice, oh, they left me no choice
Go on and give me the gun, let me blow them open
It's out of my reach
Never mind what they think about me
Oh, I don't want to say
That with mercy, we decay
Converging closer and faster
Does all I touch turn to dust?
And she confessed her love, only I shut her up
As I took all her words and allowed them to rust
I don't know if I'm the man you truly want to love
Go on and give me the gun
Never mind what I've done
They left me no choice, oh, they left me no choice
Go on and give me the gun, let me blow them open
It's out of my reach
Never mind what they think about me
Little how they learned anything about me
Meddling eyes that judge mistakes
What awful things they say
When backs are turned and no one's looking
Go on and give me the gun
Never mind what I've done
They left me no choice, oh, they left me no choice
Go on and give me the gun, let me blow them open
It's out of my reach
Never mind what they think about me
Oh, in this shattered symphony
Oh, in this shattered symphony
Give me the gun
Give me the gun
Go on and give me the gun
The one I love
I'll conduct the great disaster
To scar my skin, to own this hurt
They offered their hearts and we tore them apart
They offered their blood and we left them so parched
I don't know if I can give you anything you want
Go on and give me the gun
Never mind what I've done
They left me no choice, oh, they left me no choice
Go on and give me the gun, let me blow them open
It's out of my reach
Never mind what they think about me
Oh, I don't want to say
That with mercy, we decay
Converging closer and faster
Does all I touch turn to dust?
And she confessed her love, only I shut her up
As I took all her words and allowed them to rust
I don't know if I'm the man you truly want to love
Go on and give me the gun
Never mind what I've done
They left me no choice, oh, they left me no choice
Go on and give me the gun, let me blow them open
It's out of my reach
Never mind what they think about me
Little how they learned anything about me
Meddling eyes that judge mistakes
What awful things they say
When backs are turned and no one's looking
Go on and give me the gun
Never mind what I've done
They left me no choice, oh, they left me no choice
Go on and give me the gun, let me blow them open
It's out of my reach
Never mind what they think about me
Oh, in this shattered symphony
Oh, in this shattered symphony
Give me the gun
Give me the gun
Go on and give me the gun

I agree, I really think most of this album is in Pearl, Leonard, or Ryan's perspective... I think only a couple of the songs are actually form The Knowledge and The Beasts perspective.
