Five by Five by In Plain Sight

(Destruction isn't ruining anything

It's giving the destroyed a chance to start again

The destroyer is a savior to the ones who want to be wrecked

When you're too far gone to fix

Start over)

Sunken in roofs and tumbling walls

I've give up on my ability to house life

I can barely hold my own weight

And my legs buckle as you approach

One breath and I topple over

Nows my chance

Make it worse and give me a chance

CHORUS
Falling to pieces and being built up again

Just tell me how, where, and when

Cuz my lungs are collapsing in and my heart beat slowing

Tear me apart

So I can pull myself together again
-

Pain can be addicting

The rush of emotion, good or bad

It's harder to explain than that

I can't tell you how

I can only tell you why

And hurt is joy in my eyes

CHORUS
Falling to pieces and being built up again

Just tell me how, where, and when

Cuz my lungs are collapsing in and my heart beat slowing

Tear me apart

So I can pull myself together again
-

I  want you to ruin me

Take away everything I am

So I can recreate myself again

I don't like who I am today

And honestly, it's just too hard to change

So tear down the supports

And let me tumble to the ground

Cuz that's the only reason I have people like you around

CHORUS
Falling to pieces and being built up again

Just tell me how, where, and when

Cuz my lungs are collapsing in and my heart beat slowing

Tear me apart

So I can pull myself together again
-

I was already broken

Now I'm gone

I kept trying to repair

But one touch of the air and I went down

So put on your crystal crown

Because you did what I asked

But you knocked me down and set me on fire

I can't do it again

I'm too tired

Self destruction is what they call this

Well it's no longer seems like pure bliss
