LYRICS:
Do you know I count your heartbeats before you sleep
I bite my fingernails to bone
And then I crawl back under the stairwell
To a place I call my home
I really hope you enjoy the show
Because for me it's just a bad day
You need people like me to feel

Maybe we're just having too much fun
Maybe you can't handle yourself
Staring at me with your lips and tongue
You'll never know

I don't know where I'm going to sleep tonight
She said hotels are cheap
And there's one down the street but
Don't you threaten me with a good time
Murder the moment, my God I'm the serpent
I'm sorry I can't see that you truly love me

Maybe we're just having too much fun
Maybe you can't handle yourself
Staring at me with your lips and tongue
I've been having this dream that we can fly
So maybe if we never wake up we can see the sky

Please don't take this out on me
Cause you're the only thing that's keeping me alive
And I don't wanna wait for the down set date
Cause I would rather end it all tonight
And if I mean anything to you
I'm sorry but I've made up my mind

Maybe we're just having too much fun
Maybe you can't handle yourself
Staring at me with your lips and tongue
I've been having this dream that we can fly
So darlin close your eyes
Cause you're about to miss everything


HELL ABOVE

LYRICS:
I cannot spend another night in this home
I close my eyes and take a breath real slow
The consequence is if I leave I'm alone
But what's the difference when you beg for love

As I run through glass in the street
Kerosine hearts
Carry the name that my father gave me
And take the face of the wolf

Cause this is a wasteland, my only retreat
With heaven above you, there's hell over me

I met a girl who never looked so alone
Like sugar water in your mouth, luke warm
She tied a cherry stem for me with her tongue
We fell in love and now we're both alone

Cause I don't need anymore friends and
Another kiss like a fire on pavement
We'll burn it down till the end

This is a wasteland, my only retreat
With heaven above you, there's hell over me
The water is rusted, the air is unclean
And there for a second I feel free
Cause this is a wasteland, my only retreat

I've waited all this night to honor you and say
I know it's hard, but who are you to fall apart on me

Cause this is a wasteland, my only retreat
With heaven above you, there's hell over me
You said what about us, well what about me
Hang from the gallows, asleep in the rain
Cause this is a wasteland, my only retreat

Paralyze me
Don't let me jump, don't let me fall

    For those of you revisiting the glory days, welcome back. It’s been a while.
  • Let’s not forget this song was for Olivia Penpraze, who sadly committed suicide aged 19. These guys heard about her through her friends who were also fans, and wrote part of this song in her memory 🖤
  • @GhGh-ci8ld
    I’m sorry but that Spanish guitar solo will never get old
  • @space_trash627
    “I’m sorry I can’t see that you truly love me” This line always hits so hard, Vic just sings it so well.
  • I don't think I'll ever find another band that I feel the same level of connection to the music and enjoyment from listening to as I do with PTV, their just incredible
  • "I've been having this dream that we can fly. So maybe if we never wake up we can see the sky." These guys are absolute geniuses and most people don't realize the meaning of this lyric.
  • @cyn2062
    bruh I miss y’all I’m ready to be emo again.
  • I told my mom the story behind this song earlier when she tried to say that screaming was satanic. No, mom, it shows emphasis and passion.
  • @milesdecay
    "if i mean anything to you i'm sorry but ive made up my mind" is probably the most hard hitting line ive ever heard.
  • @kahnxo
    Almost 10 year later, this song still remains in my top 10 songs of all time. Not just PTV songs. The way Vic belts out "im sorry but ive made up my mind" absolutely breaks me. The salsa section is so well done and probably my favorite musical breakdown of all time. The dedication of the track to Olivia Penpraze was so nice of the members. PTV has always been a band that has poured everything into their music, but you can tell this track was so special to them. They poured their heart and soul and then some into this one and thats what makes it my favorite PTV song.
  • I think we all forget that part of this song was for a girl that committed suicide......these guys are so thoughtful
  • @yeetyeet9063
    This has been out for 8 years, and still one of the greatest songs i’ve heard to this day
  • @audreys5801
    The flamenco breakdown gets me every time ! Absolutely love this song 😭
  • I honestly appreciate how well they mixed their personal culture with their musical passion
  • @ItsMe-qm3fm
    I can smell the part where he drowns himself in axe and I hate it
  • @peachybbyi
    everytime i hear this song i tear up so much because i understand how it felt to be in a really deep depression and suicidal. rip to the beautiful girl that sent them her note :c
  • 2:03 - 2:50 is absolutely a jam for no reason other than pure feel of the music itself. It's amazing, not that the rest of the song isn't mind you.
