Bulls in the Bronx Lyrics

Do you know
I count your heartbeats before you sleep? (you sleep)
I bite my fingernails to bone (to bone)
And now 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...

   Vic wrote this song about Olivia Penpraze. She was a big fan of them, and she committed suicide. Her friends gave him a link to her tumblr where she posted a video that was basically a suicide note. Vic was so haunted by it, saying that a beautiful girl shouldn't ever feel that way. So the song is about suicide and stuff.

   Okay, I can't be the only one who hears Vic talking through Please, don't take this out on me part, you can hear him talking. Was it the note that he was saying or is it something else?

   Vic wrote this song when he heard about a fan who committed suicide. PTV looked at her goodbye video and decided to write a song about her in her remembrance

   This song has given me a message, I looked up the insperation and it was about a fan's suicide it touched my heart more then they could ever imagin. I love them for who they are and how much they have grown in the time they have been able to write music and save lives as they have.

   i love the part near the end...
   
   "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"
   
   .....and i think, now that i know the story about Olivia, that it is a perfect way to put into a song the complete hopelessness some people feel and the conviction they have to do exactly what they think is best...killing themselves. once again, job well don Vic

   this song is about living in the most terrible dark part of your life and not getting out, its about fixing the problem and commiting suicide.
   
   about that girl who killed herself who was a fan of pierce the viel. he felt so bad he made this song for her.
