All the odds are stacked against our deck of cards
But we never paid attention to the thoughts
Of everyone around our circle, pass the bottle
Make a promise never do this shit again
Then brought me to a place I never knew
Throw this weight across my shoulders bleeding through
I don't think that I can make this effort last
Make a promise never do this shit again
Never do this shit again
Call me every single minute that you can
Take these blinders off my eyes, so I can learn
That there's so much left to see and left to hurt
Make a promise never do this shit again
Wasted time and wasted thoughts will pass you by
As you're sitting there alone just asking why
All the others have a purpose for their lives
Make a promise never do this shit again
Now I'll take my life back in my hands
My exit wounds are healing up
This gauze you left me feel like fire
Is racing down my neck and mind
But all this is mine
Now I'm sitting here with no one left to call
All that I do is brace and take the fall
Even though it makes wish I never knew
What it was to be someone just like you
Take another sip of what you call your life
Drink it down and throw your body down tonight
I won't be the one to take your crying calls
I made a promise not to do this shit again
Now I'll take my life back in my hands
My exit wounds are healing up
This gauze you left me feel like fire
Is racing down my neck and mind
Now I'll take my life back in my hands
My exit wounds are healing up
This gauze you left me feel like fire
Is racing down my neck and mind
But all this is mine
You say you want me back
But I can't get myself around
Your games would always profit the house
You say you want me back
But I can't get myself around
Your games would always profit the house
This time I'm taking my hand
And running out with my stack
Now I'll take my life back in my hands
My exit wounds are healing up
This gauze you left me feel like fire
Is racing down my neck and mind
Now I'll take my life back in my hands
My exit wounds are healing up
This gauze you left me feel like fire
Is racing down my neck and mind

Lock this tight
I'll the only one facing the executioner
I'll keep all you Falling flight
Just pull the cord and you'll feel like you've cheated
A thousand times before
Take your time
Being a man, stepping forward is only the first step
To taking this chance
I can't go on with this thought that
There's no one around me to bring me a
Stable hand, Just bring me to a doctor
fix me right now, Take this burdon off my hands
This is what you deserve
I can't think of Any way to make this right
You're slipping Out of my hands
And our of our minds, take your time
With every last detail, I hope you burn in hell
Don't waste your time with me, I'll bring you so far down
I'll hold your hand as I Destroy all this suffering sound
You're facing deadly sins, And you've got no one left
To pull you back and let You get through all this mess
Watch this night
You'll be the last thing I see before I die
I hope you choke On every last breath
you took to condemn me by making this my
Sacrifice tonight I can't
Believe I'm standing here alone again
Why don't you just step forward
Push the plunger into my veins now
Don't waste your time with me, I'll bring you so far down
I'll hold your hand as I Destroy all this suffering sound
You're facing deadly sins, And you've got no one left
To pull you back and let You get through all this mess
I'm taking oaths that you felt
The way I feel once again
I'm breaking windows and shards
Of glass are feeding my act
You make a beautiful mark
This liar's chair isn't yours
To give this judgement before
You take your orders from the bottom
Of my piteous disease
Don't waste your time with me, I'll bring you so far down
I'll hold your hand as I Destroy all this suffering sound
You're facing deadly sins, And you've got no one left
To pull you back and let You get through all this mess

I'm coloring outside these lines
I'm taking bets that half the time
You're full of words that rip these walls
Right down, we're falling apart
There's nothing left for you to take
These accidents just feel so fake
I wish it didn't come to this
You made a fool out of me
This time I'm taking aim
My rifle isn't shaking as I
Squeeze this trigger tight and close my eyes
This will be all over soon
I'll drag your body through the town
You'll wish you never thought to say
A single fucking thing to me
I need to sever this now
Just break it off, I can't believe
It took so long to see the wolf behind the sheep
And I
Don't think that I can bring you back
Just be an adult again
Instead of acting like a god
Inside your pious crowded hall
I hope you get a chance to see
The lines you burned in the sand
And now I'm left with broken glass
It's shattered around me, I can't put it back
So what's the point of trying now
You've made up your bed, you can lie by yourself
This time I'm taking aim
My rifle isn't shaking as I
Squeeze this trigger tight and close my eyes
This will be all over soon
I'll drag your body through the town
You'll wish you never thought to say
A single fucking thing to me
I need to sever this now
Own the price you pay
Own the price you pay
This time it's personal
You can't take back the bullet once it's fired
Arms are steady by my side
My heart's a gaping awful wound
Just throw your back against the chair
And smile soft as you prepare
To fire off another killshot
Right between my sorry eyes

This time the writing on the wall is screaming me in the face
You're showing signs of a crack
It's crawling down through your face
I will take this moment just to try and retrace
The path we took was way too long, and now we're lost in the wood
I wish we thought to become
The people that we once were
Steps were lost in thought, never to rise from the floor
You're thinking what we both want
Oh so badly just to be the heroes of the day
You're only making this much worse
We can't drag this shadowbox for a thousand years
I can't believe that you would be so cruel
Just walk out the front door and pretend that you're right
Move your pieces across the board as your
Tears are filling rivers that I forgot to swim
This time you're sitting in the corner wishing you were alone
I'm watching you from the back
It's tearing me up inside
To see this mess that we created after stars misaligned
Where did we go so very wrong, was it the map that we bought
This was supposed to be fun
But I forget when it was
It's been so long since we pretended that we wanted this buzz
This maze is never ending, throw me in and watch me fall apart
Your sideline cheering isn't making me feel like we're getting
Something out of nothing when this nothing is the future we bought
You're thinking what we both want
Oh so badly just to be the heroes of the day
You're only making this much worse
We can't drag this shadowbox for a thousand years
I can't believe that you would be so cruel
Just walk out the front door and pretend that you're right
Move your pieces across the board as your
Tears are filling rivers that I forgot to swim
Just shut the fucking door
Behind your sorry face
You'll be the reason that I'll make this hurt today
Your roots are coming through the ground and
Pushing out all of the plants we placed
And now there's nothing left to say
Now there's nothing left to say
I can't believe that you would be so cruel
Just walk out the front door and pretend that you're right
I can't believe that you would be so cruel
Just walk out the front door and pretend that you're right
Move your pieces across the board as your
Tears are filling rivers that I forgot to swim
I can't believe that you would be so cruel
Just walk out the front door and pretend that you're right
Move your pieces across the board as your
Tears are filling rivers that I forgot to swim

This is the last choice that you'll make
Another turning point, another page is creased again
My heart skips like it was a captive for years
And now you've set me free
And now you've set me free
Time is fleeting, find myself without a chance
Well I've been waiting for
Well I've been waiting for you
It's on tonight, I'm flying on again
And now we're headed for
Another retraced dawn
This is the time for me to say all
All of the things I've said for years
Fell on deaf ears
My eyes won't recover before we break dawn
And now we're sending off
And now we're sending off our fears
Time is fleeting, find myself without a chance
Well I've been waiting for
Well I've been waiting fo ryou
It's on tonight, I'm flying on again
And now we're headed for
Another retraced dawn
Time is fleeting, find myself without a chance
Well I've been waiting for
Well I've been waiting fo ryou
It's on tonight, I'm flying on again
And now we're headed for
Another retraced dawn
We watch ourselves like actors playing a part
We hold on tight to every script line we start
This cast of 10 can only take us so far
It's all a show, this fight is all a show
(I'm watching you so very close)
This one is for you
So take it and run
Don't stop to pretend that you're lonely
You're only a lie to yourself
Time is fleeting, find myself without a chance
Well I've been waiting for
Well I've been waiting fo ryou
It's on tonight, I'm flying on again
And now we're headed for
Another retraced dawn
Time is fleeting, find myself without a chance
Well I've been waiting for
Well I've been waiting fo ryou
It's on tonight, I'm flying on again
And now we're headed for
Another retraced dawn

Lilacs and Rose Petals
I'll watch you slip away
You're breaking dawn, and stealing light
Away from every pawn across the board
We'll make this fall like winter nights
Now only the best will survive your fight
Cowboy up, just pass this bottle round the bend
We'll make it last until the fire's falling down
Before you say it's over (let me breaking this down)
Is up, we'll twist their heads around again
There's no one left to get in front of your sights
Before we try and end this all tonight
I'm taking this to heart
You're dead to my own senses fail
They're playing tricks with both my eyes again
I'm seeing what you left behind
And no one cares to pick up half of your mess
Cowboy up, just pass this bottle round the bend
We'll make it last until the fire's falling down
Before you say it's over (let me breaking this down)
Is up, we'll twist their heads around again
There's no one left to get in front of your sights
Before we try and end this all tonight
(Steal my life blood I'm sinking down again)
Take the pieces you find just like it was up
To you all along I can't find out a way
To make you believe that you are a blank
Pariah for something that you've never
Take the pieces you find just like it was up
To you all along I can't find out a way
To make you believe that you are a blank
Pariah for something that you've never
Seen like you sucked in your last dying breath
Break your bread, drink your wine, pass the bottle around the bend
Cowboy up, just pass this bottle round the bend
We'll make it last until the fire's falling down
Before you say it's over (let me breaking this down)
Is up, we'll twist their heads around again
There's no one left to get in front of your sights
Before we try and end this all tonight

Broken Reflections

This time your shine is blinding everyone else
We're taking orders like the deaf learning sound
Pieces falling off paper scraps are filling the air
Who said there are nothing but fumes pushing us on
I'll take my chances with another mistake
You'll take my broken shattered will to be great
I don't care for your message hold your hands in the air
We still run from this fire burning on
Walk this line, and never turn your head
Face your crimes, or we will make this hurt
What's the price, of saving your own skin
Walk this line, and spin your fucking regret
Now this is more than a test
Your facing gallows chalking white lines with white lies between
Your hands are pinned to you sides
But both your lips are spitting white lites with black tides tonight
And now you'll make this right
The camera's calling, flashes lighting the sky
These jackals claw and bite for scraps on their plate
Just walk, foward, your message isn't worth more than fate
But who'll stand with you smiling for the page
We stood the thought of all your evil and fame
We even broke our silence wishing you shame
And now even our words are cutting diamonds in print
We still run from this fire burning on
Walk this line, and never turn your head
Face your crimes, or we will make this hurt
What's the price, of saving your own skin
Walk this line, and spin your fucking regret
Now this is more than a test
Your facing gallows chalking white lines with white lies between
Your hands are pinned to you sides
But both your lips are spitting white lites with black tides tonight
And now you'll make this right
Take your hands off the wheel
And drive yourself through the lake
I'm watching, waiting for this show to entertain
It's only fate
Now this is more than a test
Your facing gallows chalking white lines with white lies between
Your hands are pinned to you sides
But both your lips are spitting white lites with black tides tonight
Make a wish
Blow it out
What's left to say

I'm waiting for, this time to pass
You're trying to just dig yourself out of
This mess that fell around your sheets
I try so hard just not look
And see the hardship on your front-side wall
Is crashing down around us all
Where have all the heroes gone
I wish that I had listen to
All of times that you once stood for all
The times we cried and how we laughed
But now your story's getting on
And I don't see the ending breaking dawn
Before we get to say goodbye
Where have all the heroes gone
This time I'll make it right
I'll take the train to any stop
So we can talk about the times we never thought
We would grow older
This station carries thoughts
And fills them inside our jars
We bought our tickets hoping for a chance to say
Goodbye forever
(Goodbye forever)
Some day we'll look back on this night
And thank ourselves for taking
One more night to be the kids that we should be
It doesn't matter what we say
Or what we do with our lives
We came out on top around these forest trees
This time I'll make it right
I'll take the train to any stop
So we can talk about the times we never thought
We would grow older
This station carries thoughts
And fills them inside our jars
We bought our tickets hoping for a chance to say
Goodbye forever
This time I'll make it right
(We don't want to say goodbye)
I'll take the train to any stop
So we can talk about the times we never thought
We would grow older
This station carries thoughts
(We don't want to say goodbye)
And fills them inside our jars
We bought our tickets hoping for a chance to say
Goodbye forever

I can't believe that this is all you left behind
Sullen disease of everything you tried to hide
Shake off that fall, and get back up to see the light
Hiding behind, the fire's just above the top of this hill
Be like the game, throw it around
Tell everyone you meant to explode
(I don't think you are taking this serious)
Own your own sins, throw them away
Tell everyone that you are the last
(I don't think you are taking this serious)
Watch the screen falling to pieces
Scramble the cable before we break up
Your own channel is blocked
Before the audience can feel as if they're losing control
This is painful and I can't look away11:37 PM 9/20/2011
Driving by and hoping for a crash
We all cater to our own demons before
We fake our way through this game of life
This is painful and I can't look away
Driving by and hoping for a crash
We all cater to our own demons before
We fake our way through this game of life
Now that we're only faking lessons from our lives
I can prepare to build my story from the ground
Fire is raging out the hands of my control
And I can't believe that this is all you left behind for yourself
Be like the game, throw it around
Tell everyone you meant to leave your car across the tracks
(I don't think you are taking this serious)
Own your own sins, throw them away
Tell everyone that you are the last of your own breed and kind
(I don't think you are taking this serious)
Watch the screen falling to pieces
Scramble the cable before we break up
Your own channel is blocked
Before the audience can feel as if they're losing control
This is painful and I can't look away
Driving by and hoping for a crash
We all cater to our own demons before
We fake our way through this game of life
This is painful and I can't look away
Driving by and hoping for a crash
We all cater to our own demons before
We fake our way through this game of life

Each night I find a way to get myself in front of this train
My better half is running wild
And painting sign across the town
I try to shove it so far down
The roots are pushing through my feet
It's growing inside of your mind
This thought, this seed of self indulge
You try to shove it so far down
The light will always draw it out
I'm running out of options now
I struggle to find a better way to present
(We fight just to survive), (We fight to stay alive)
My failed attempt at selling out
Your heart is a gift that I just can't represent
(We fight just to survive), (We fight to stay alive)
I can't believe that I am still alive
And kicking out these horrid thoughts
That run like pictures through my head
This grainy film is wrapping round
The corners ripping to the end
The ending credits stole my lungs
And now I'm fighting for some air
To fill me back, this pressure tank
Can only kill us in the end
I'm running out of options now
I struggle to find a better way to present
(We fight just to survive), (We fight to stay alive)
My failed attempt at selling out
Your heart is a gift that I just can't represent
(We fight just to survive), (We fight to stay alive)
Throw your hands out
Throw your hands out
Throw your hands out
Throw your hands out and touch the sky
It bleeds these colors
blending into nothing
Empty space is only
just the start of something
that you never thought you'd
see before you close your eyes
just Push the pedal down
and throw your hands into
The night is claiming one more victim
Just before you got a chance to question
Why you thought this was the right solution
Just before you got a chance to question why
I'm running out of options now
I struggle to find a better way to present
(We fight just to survive), (We fight to stay alive)
My failed attempt at selling out
Your heart is a gift that I just can't represent
(We fight just to survive), (We fight to stay alive)
I'm running out of options now
I struggle to find a better way to present
(We fight just to survive), (We fight to stay alive)
My failed attempt at selling out
Your heart is a gift that I just can't represent
(We fight just to survive), (We fight to stay alive)

I stutter-start this engine dry
And try to climb the hill I
Drive for five years I've thrown them away
What's left to keep my passion right
I can't believe that I once
Tried, I don't care I'm gonna throw this away
Just try to stop me this time
You won't learn, you just never forget
I'm taking over, life like it's russian roulette
I'm up making up for lost time
This song will be my last regret
I'm folding cards now, cashing in my defaulted bets
This game is lasting way too long
I want to throw my towel in
I'd be the first to admit that I don't know where I've been
The water's edge just looks so clean
The signs are telling me to stop
You'll be the last to learn that I could fake this so long
Just try to stop me this time
You won't learn, you just never forget
I'm taking over, life like it's russian roulette
I'm up making up for lost time
This song will be my last regret
I'm folding cards now, cashing in my defaulted bets
Pick up your end, tell me it's all right
I won't blame you for this mess tonight
This is your last chance to be the one
Taking credit for my sinking thoughts
Just try to stop me this time
You won't learn, you just never forget
I'm taking over, life like it's russian roulette
I'm up making up for lost time
This song will be my last regret
I'm folding cards now, cashing in my defaulted bets
Just try to stop me this time
You won't learn, you just never forget
I'm taking over, life like it's russian roulette
I'm up making up for lost time
This song will be my last regret
I'm folding cards now, cashing in my defaulted bets
You say you're looking for
Someone to save your life
I want to be your star
But I'm already just night
