Fight, breathe, air, water in lungs Live, Die, Sword or the gun Ties, Love, breaking your heart Game, night, nothing but This is only the first time I've ever found Some way to break this carbon box down Lungs haven't found the exit wound yet But I swear I wanted you, needed you then

Time...you're stealing my heart from my chest And leaving me with just the rest Your table scraps are making me sick once again This leftover feeling of what I could become Lights all around me Oxygen found me Without a safety net again Define the boundaries Where is the ground, please Don't let me fall, my heart in hand I'm making something of this mess I wove, isn't Unimportant, you're making sport of my head I haven't been this far in yet Rain...is pouring right out of my pen And bleeding through stacks of regret My compromise is falling apart day by day And spilling out into the streets I walk alone Lights all around me Oxygen found me Without a safety net again Define the boundaries Where is the ground, please Don't let me fall, my heart in hand I'm making something of this mess I wove, isn't Unimportant, you're making sport of my head I haven't been this far in yet Eyes up, Face First, Step up (Night After Night) This time we'll make it around Without me falling down I'm making something of this mess I wove, isn't Unimportant, you're making sport of my head I haven't been this far in yet I'm falling down this road that I have raced for a Thousand miles, the next one won't be the end I can't make you stay away again Eyes up, Face First, Step up (Night After Night)

I tried to be the one you want, do everything you asked I look around and see it got me nowhere And now we're standing at the corner screaming words we never meant I'd give the world to take my life apart now piece by piece Let's see what keeps me praying for the sunshine It never shot across the sky, I wait for something like a life I want to pretend that my half of effort made a difference now I hate the image of my youth My answer's waiting for you My answer's waiting for you You tell me that this is gonna the greatest thing I'll ever do My heart can't beat without you Please hold my hand we'll make it through I'm taking all you say to heart, and storing it down deep Beneath the drain I built for all these storm clouds This rain can fall a thousand years, I'll never let you disappear Let's treat your cadence with a flash, a fire in the pan Just let this roll across my open shoulders This blade is cutting like a knife, these words are filling up my lungs I try to hold this levee tight, but it's about crash back down I hate the image of my youth My answer's waiting for you My answer's waiting for you You tell me that this is gonna the greatest thing I'll ever do My heart can't beat without you Please hold my hand we'll make it through My heart can't beat without you Please hold my hand we'll make it through

Let's go Take this knife and run it down your spine, let's cauterize This wound is only your passion, now we'll take it tonight Hide your face before the sun comes up, we'll wake the town I'm done with running around behind the alleyway now I can't believe that you would sell yourself so fast We never saw you coming round and round again My dear the story is done, we're gonna put in the ground Let's entertain this strong abuse and push it back again As if you were a piece of something that we caught You'll never matter again, because you lost out in the end Running from this dream never brought you peace So you tried something that you thought Would bring you back to the earth Such a waste of time, waste it on your lives Don't try to drag me down again I'm done with all of your lies Yeah I think I'm done now...let's go Make your peace, and speak your mind before we lose your thoughts I'm taking bets that you'll never be important again Now you've lost your sense of taste and smell, we'll stand you right You let them stole what you had, now we are taking it back My biggest fear is that you will return with something else Now we can see you still are standing so alone You brought this onto yourself, a gutter screaming for help Burn your hands away and pray for something else to come But all you see is what you left behind again You'll never matter again, because you lost out in the end Running from this dream never brought you peace So you tried something that you thought Would bring you back to the earth Such a waste of time, waste it on your lives Don't try to drag me down again I'm done with all of your lies Running from this dream never brought you peace So you tried something that you thought Would bring you back to the earth Such a waste of time, waste it on your lives Don't try to drag me down again I'm done with all of your lies Mother criticized (you're no son of mine) This moved so fast and how we ever thought this moment would die And now we're butting heads (upon this crescent again) You make me want to steal this night Mother criticized (you're no son of mine) This moved so fast and how we ever thought this moment would die And now we're butting heads (upon this crescent again) You make me want to steal this night And so I'll steal this fucking night Running from this dream never brought you peace So you tried something that you thought Would bring you back to the earth Such a waste of time, waste it on your lives Don't try to drag me down again I'm done with all of your lies Running from this dream never brought you peace So you tried something that you thought Would bring you back to the earth Such a waste of time, waste it on your lives Don't try to drag me down again I'm done with all of your lies And now I'll steal this fucking night

This was over, a second chance just never came And I came to peace, with you and all your hidden shame Just what are you waiting for Padlock memories won't change a thing Just what are you waiting for I don't think you know yourself this way Just reach your hand up high I'll grab before I give out We'll reach the stars tonight With no one else taking clout Shoulders, arms raised, we're bringing this noise And falling off cliffs like the signs are all pointing south Breaking windows and forcing foxholes We'll root out your actions and hunt them all down inside Taking your life is like ink drying paper These letters are all starting to make me sick again Sign on the dotted line, carry your life away Slumped while you walk down the alley to nowhere safe And now I'm hoping we can wash this fire down Our throats burning this courage tastes like something else Just what are you waiting for Padlock memories won't change a thing Just what are you waiting for I don't think you know yourself this way Just reach your hand up high I'll grab before I give out We'll reach the stars tonight With no one else taking clout I don't care what you think about who I am This never mattered what makes you think I care Shoulders, arms raised, we're bringing this noise And falling off cliffs like the signs are all pointing south Breaking windows and forcing foxholes We'll root out your actions and hunt them all down inside Taking your life is like ink drying paper These letters are all starting to make me sick again Sign on the dotted line, carry your life away Slumped while you walk down the alley to nowhere safe Conversations never happen like we wanted anyway Take your problems somehwere else and I don't care now anymore Just reach your hand up high I'll grab before I give out We'll reach the stars tonight With no one else taking clout I don't care what you think about who I am This never mattered what makes you think I care Shoulders, arms raised, we're bringing this noise And falling off cliffs like the signs are all pointing south Breaking windows and forcing foxholes We'll root out your actions and hunt them all down inside Taking your life is like ink drying paper These letters are all starting to make me sick again Sign on the dotted line, carry your life away Slumped while you walk down the alley to nowhere safe

This time I mean every word I scream A sad attempt to even mean a thing Your face is all that I see Around this shattering dream Your wants and needs are outreaching me And now I've lost the chance to believe That this will someday be seen As something we can call free You're becoming part of problems we can't see I'm watching (You hearing) Me swearing I can pick up Pieces mended on the fence I'm on the top I'm falling (You're falling) I'm calling this my second Come and be young my darling it won't be too long Until we make this our own, until we make this our own Sign on the dotted line like you were never involved Take me against my will, take me I swear until You find the courage to be the man You always pretended to live up To this mirage, with the sand so still It's flying past the horizon And we don't care to know your bandaged eyes Cant wound this soldier anymore tonight I'll fight until the morning steals the night This fucking banner makes me hate this fight I'm falling (You're falling) I'm calling this my second Come and be young my darling it won't be too long Until we make this our own, until we make this our own Sign on the dotted line like you were never involved Take me against my will, take me I swear until I get so sick of this game, keeps running over again We lost the right to complain, and now we're tying our ends You think we thought this through but we Are just a figment of your selt esteem This time I mean every word I scream A sad attempt to even mean a thing Your face is all that I see Around this shattering dream Your wants and needs are outreaching me And now I've lost the chance to believe That this will someday be seen As something we can call free

We can't see past our face, you're taking away The sight of my brother fades away Now look away Don't try to presume, that you know the words To this awful song, now I'm tuning you out Let's take this picture off the kitchen wall I never thought this day'd would come at all She sits alone and holds her bottle tight We'll cry tonight, we'll never be all right Now all the world is left to try and fight This jar of fire can't provide our light Your voice can't reach across this hole We dug ourselves down deep below We made these plans to run across this wing We'd stop for nothing but the only thing That I can tell the world tonight Is that you're gone, i'm not all right We can't see past our face, you're taking away The sight of my brother fades away Now look away You're taking your time, and saying it wrong You think that you know this but you've never found Yourself inside this cave just Wishing for landslides to take you away while you Reach out your hand and grab this tree ...Well I don't think that we'll ever be fine again Let's take this picture off the kitchen wall I never thought this day'd would come at all She sits alone and holds her bottle tight We'll cry tonight, we'll never be all right Now all the world is left to try and fight This jar of fire can't provide our light Your voice can't reach across this hole We dug ourselves down deep below We made these plans to run across this wing We'd stop for nothing but the only thing That I can tell the world tonight Is that you're gone, i'm not all right We can't see past our face, you're taking away The sight of my brother fades away

I'm so sick of carrying this burden on my back It's so tight from all the nights I spent alone behind the Back of your mind regret the nights you sang to me about your Shaking suspect, these lights are blinding both my eyes so I can't See past your face, you ask these questions, face my honor task your Sinking disgrace, it's all you have to cash this check before you're Losing your face, is worse, you mind is spent, these cracks are starting To minimize this loss, a catacomb of feelings stuff them down and cauterize Your face is shining down from all I stole this night From everyone who thought that I should fail this test Wash away these thoughts and pick yourself back up You're worth more than you ever dreamed you'd make a better man Be the first one to reach out your hand and taste this morning Now we're left with something more than what we thought we'd Make in the end, we have a thousand reasons not to take the Back road instead, I'm facing forward wishing for a second To make mistakes, these words are printed black and bleeding for the Last awful time, I hate the sound of every cheer and every Screaming your name is all I have to keep me balanced leave me Hating this game, the clock is ticking for the both of us we Got in too young, and now we're forcing this again, I'm done, it's done, and we're done Your face is shining down from all I stole this night From everyone who thought that I should fail this test What are you waiting for Why don't you crucify me What are you waiting for You think I'm worth your time now Wash away these thoughts and pick yourself back up You're worth more than you ever dreamed you'd make a better man Be the first one to reach out your hand and taste this morning I can't take this back now that I have seen All that this town can offer to me You're faking life it's just a game Just take a step back fuck where we came

Exercise restraint in time, I'll make you mine, we own the seconds ticking by Life is nothing but your valentine A shot at something we both need To find a way to buy the hours back We lost when we went off the tracks Fail to reconcile this master plan The map is splitting as we fall We flail our limbs And rob the babies from their arms They'll never win It's no surprise we come at night This knife will suffer again Just close your eyes Or yes, I swear, we'll try to last All through the night You never thought all your Cheating, lying would do you in It's time to your line pockets Silver stopwatch stopping the time Don't pretend your only friend Is lying back in hiding wishing you the best In show, your price is here I'm holding back a final wish you never had A chance to realign your stars are up This comet shot across the sky Is black the darkest night will find you on Your knees and wishing you had faith Who's right...who's coming now to bail you out To make this feel all right again It's not a question of what's wrong or right It's how you chose to let this end We flail our limbs And rob the babies from their arms They'll never win It's no surprise we come at night This knife will suffer again Just close your eyes Or yes, I swear, we'll try to last All through the night You never thought all your Cheating, lying would do you in It's time to your line pockets Silver stopwatch stopping the time My heart is killing my chest If never beat this loud before We got into this whole mess I'm staring at this open door Just please don't shut it again I can't pretend I have the strength To take myself to the end It's not my time to make amends We flail our limbs And rob the babies from their arms They'll never win It's no surprise we come at night This knife will suffer again Just close your eyes Or yes, I swear, we'll try to last All through the night You never thought all your Cheating, lying would do you in It's time to your line pockets Silver stopwatch stopping the time My heart is killing my chest (Just tear it out) If never beat this loud before (I cease to hear) We got into this whole mess (Now clean it up) I'm staring at this open door (We lost the key) Just please don't shut it again (It's not my fault) I can't pretend I have the strength (Just drop your arms) To take myself to the end (You're out of gas) It's not my time to make amends (Just ask for more) Just please don't shut it again (It's not my fault) I can't pretend I have the strength (Just drop your arms) To take myself to the end (You're out of gas) It's not my time to make amends (Just ask for more)

(3-2-1 Let's Go) I walk into this door And I don't notice anything is gone (Try and set the mood) Just watch your tone and how you tell Me that the light was stolen from My pocket's feeling so light (But I don't care) She told me "Turn my head" Sometimes the best things in life Are right behind Your back, so grab a hold I never thought I'd believe That everyone would stand tall I'll try my best To make this turn out all right (Now bring on the show) It's half past 6 and all I see Are faces swimming past my face (All I see is you) You whispered subtle screaming lines To keep the pressure off my face (Tell me that it's fine) I don't think anyone could ask For anymore that what you've done (There's no seeing through) This mess embraced your mind And all I see are pictures flying by We'll never forget the time You made this all right She told me "Turn my head" Sometimes the best things in life Are right behind Your back, so grab a hold I never thought I'd believe That everyone would stand tall I'll try my best To make this turn out all right She told me "Turn my head" (we'll hold our hands tonight) Sometimes the best things in life (and dance inside the dark) Are right behind (It doesn't matter how) Your back, so grab a hold (Or when we light this spark) I never thought I'd believe (we'll hold our hands tonight) That everyone would stand tall (and dance inside the dark) I'll try my best (It doesn't matter how) To make this turn out all right (Or when we light this spark) (Tell me that it's fine) I don't think anyone could ask For anymore that what you've done (There's no seeing through) This mess embraced your mind And all I see are pictures flying by We'll never forget the time You made this all right She told me "Turn my head" Sometimes the best things in life Are right behind Your back, so grab a hold I never thought I'd believe That everyone would stand tall I'll try my best To make this turn out all right She told me "Turn my head" (we'll hold our hands tonight) Sometimes the best things in life (and dance inside the dark) Are right behind (It doesn't matter how) Your back, so grab a hold (Or when we light this spark) I never thought I'd believe (we'll hold our hands tonight) That everyone would stand tall (and dance inside the dark) I'll try my best (It doesn't matter how) To make this turn out all right (Or when we light this spark)

Picking your face off the pavement is not the game I Thought, we'd try, now traumatized by the light Of the trees as this night steals your breath Suck it in as the spokes keep on bending your whims I can pretend that this all was a dream but This pillow is hard as a rock Your body's all that I can see You thought that you could cheat this hill But now there's nothing left say You've fallen off the cliff again Say you're broken, now say you're broken Take your time and savor all your words Scream my name as you fall to the bottom again One last time your fist, the wall I tried to tell you that this road was Far too long for us to take but You didn't hear me You didn't hear me Now look where we're at You thought that you could cheat this hill But now there's nothing left say You've fallen off the cliff again Say you're broken, now say you're broken Take your time and savor all your words Scream my name as you fall to the bottom again Your hand was resting on the neck A spitting image of fallen regret You've fallen off the cliff again Say you're broken, now say you're broken Take your time and savor all your words Scream my name as you drink to the bottom again Try to take me on I'll shove this down your throat Stick it in your arm I'll throw you out the door This time your tank is running out And all the signs you passed were Screaming that fuel was a thousand miles ahead Now all you have are the fumes of your own self regret You thought that you could cheat this hill But now there's nothing left say You've fallen off the cliff again Say you're broken, now say you're broken Take your time and savor all your words Scream my name as you fall to the bottom again Your hand was resting on the neck A spitting image of fallen regret You've fallen off the cliff again Say you're broken, now say you're broken Take your time and savor all your words Scream my name as you drink to the bottom again

Your senses are swept away Grab something, and start to pray This smoke fills your body right This fire will burn all night I'm sorry we had begin this way Just promise to never forget me When it's over, scream out loud We'll burn this city to the ground Take off your hat, we're making history tonight I'll make you pround, please mom and dad just look away My long lost youth can't bring you back So all I can offer is my fist Your shields and swords can't turn away The world is watching this entire play And now the smoke is spiraling So all I can offer is the chance To make something but but yourselves Your making a joke out of hate I wanted to do the right thing But all I can see is the flame I'm sorry we had begin this way Just promise to never forget me When it's over, scream out loud We'll burn this city to the ground We left a choice in second hands This clock is ticking past our lives When I'm finishing counting down We'll burn this city to the ground Somehow we found a way to lose The point of all this broken glass And now the mess is out of hand Somehow I forgot to leave an out Our path is littered with the price Of what we came to steal away Just forget me Save yourself now Make this go away Before we fall Your senses are swept away Grab something, and start to pray This smoke fills your body right This fire will burn all night
