if i could be anywhere and feel at home and be without anyone without feeling alone and do anything knowing it's all right i'll keep you in mind don't want to spend my time looking ahead or back it keeps me busy just wondering where the hell i'm at i don't want to talk because i don't want to argue it'll just
confuse me anyway i've got my
reasons for not being
understanding and saying all
We were designed for more.
In an image not our own.
But we've fallen short.
I'm quite speechless and was quite unaware.
Of what the capabilities of a weak heart are.
We're cast away.
It'll run through the back of your head until you regain control again.
The sleep lost on these thoughts wasn't worth the time.
We're cast away until we regain control again.
This year of you held near or not at all.
It wasn't worth the wait.
We're all cast away.
We were designed for more.
In an image not our own.
But we've fallen short.
We were so close.
It's just not worth it to stay in this state.
It's just not worth it to keep it.
It's just not worth it to let it go.
I believe in a better condition.
In one that I have yet to attain.
I believe in a better love.
In one that has yet to change.
The love that I feel from my brothers is the sun in the sky.
I will find my condition in that which is unconditional.
Conversation conversation.
Ours are never.
You are ever so convincing.
They'll get better.
It's just not worth it to stay in this state.
I believe in a better condition.
In one I have yet to attain.
I believe in a better love.
In one that has yet to change.
The world is ours when everybody's sleeping
And the world is ours when everybody's dreaming.
And the world is ours when everybody's sleeping
This one's flawless
Ain't she a beauty? Ain't she grand?
Sealed with a kiss, with hopes of getting through
Because a glass ceiling divides us, and what I've got
Is the blessing of a clear day, and a clear view
The architecture looms above
Come dance within the framework of young love
Fill it baby, fill it
Two figures in a skeleton lit, dancing so electric
And lighting up this world
And I'll step right on your heart
Pressing hard and deep, I'll leave you not degraded
Cause I'll keep coming back to fill that fragile imprint
Again and again, until you're satiated
So we live only to die
Well lately I've sworn that's so untrue
Because part of me swears that
The way that I feel
And what supposed to be real
Strongly disagree
There is one thing
I keep in front of me
'Cause cash won't save
Cars won't transcend the grave
I call everyone I know
The only things of value
I could ever own
It worries my mind
Knowing days of my life
Slowly disappear
Is there something
That I should be doing here
With my time
Should I fall in line
I can't chase the American dream
Trading life for money
Never made much sense to me
And some may say
That I'm already gone
But I say
Hey, if I'm wrong at all
For living this way
I'm alright being wrong
And I say
Hey, as i slowly let
Possession slip away
I feel I belong
I'm alright being wrong
I try and I try
To find appeal in nine to five
But I never win
Stuck in days
That don't seem to begin
The answer I find
To the question in mind
King of diamonds, kings of hearts
One dies loved
And one is dead from the very start
And some may say
That I'm already gone
But I say
Hey, if I'm wrong at all
For living this way
I'm alright being wrong
And I say
Hey, as I slowly let
Possession slip away
I feel I belong
I'm alright being wrong
And things like this
Aren't hard to resist
As my mind persists
Allowing absolutely no interest
In things that fade
As fast as they
Accumulate
I refuse to bury myself that way
Hey, if I'm wrong at all
For living this way
I'm alright being wrong
And I say
Hey, if I'm wrong at all
For living this way
I'm alright being wrong
And I say
Hey, as I slowly let
Possession slip away
I feel I belong
We’re made up with a balance so delicate
Rarely ever calm and serene
When everything of use is irrelevant
We’re all just self-destructing machines
And when it seems to be letting up
It's time to begin
Don't be afraid you were born to fit this mold
This wheel is generations old
It’ll be better when you see
This is the way it has to be
It's all you have...
With the frantic pace the clocks all throw us in
We’ve fought and made a villain of time
The presence of a few model citizens
Comply or be left behind
Instead of taking action, why don't you begin routine?
And instead of being tired, why don't you become machine?
There's no breaking formation
It's permanent, don't even try
History’s bound to repeat itself
After a calm walk to the mirror
I never thought this frame could ever seem so empty
A missing face has made it lose its touch
And I'm shaking, but nonetheless alive
And nonetheless alive
And there were centuries in the sky that night
History buried deep in those bright lights
Bright flashes with spectacular goodbyes
Why couldn't ours have been so nice?
Still I hung on every word
Still I hung on every word
I remember each word at the top of my lungs
Laying back for the last time
Breathing in, breathing in…
Laying back for the last time
To rise unloved again
I prayed for you
But I never prayed for this
I prayed for you
I remember each word at the top of my lungs
Remember each word, remember each word
And I'm shaking, but nonetheless alive
And I'm shaking
So they're saying
That the end is coming
I'm saying that
They don't know nothing
It's been right here
(It's been right here)
The whole time
(The whole time)
Disguised as a straight line
(Ah, ah)
If we already knew who to be
(Ah, ah)
Time is something
That we wouldn't need
One by one
You will lose yourself
As you keep on following
Following footsteps
That lead the wrong direction
One by one
You are fading out
As you're slowly settling
Settling for the same
You play it safe
You end progression
Retreating to the same old places
Breeding all the same old faces
Youth is wasted on the young
Life is wasted on the living ones
(Ah, ah)
If we already knew who to be
(Ah, ah)
Time is something
That we wouldn't need
One by one
You will lose yourself
As you keep on following
Following footsteps
That lead the wrong direction
One by one
You are fading out
As you're slowly settling
Settling for the same
You play it safe
You end progression
I've been cheated
I've been broken
And it made me a better man
Something you will never say
And you will end
Before beginning
The same as you ever were
Quietly you'll slip away
One by one
You will lose yourself
As you keep on following
Following footsteps
That lead the wrong direction
One by one
You are fading out
As you're slowly settling
Settling for the same
You play it safe
You end progression
You play it safe
Discover the method
Some cannibalistic way
Ingest your opponent
Hoping to find your way
Give me something to live for, and I won't look back
Show me everyone's a lesson, then an act
Intend to be human
Turn out a whole new animal
You're better than better
Perfect in every sense of the word
Everyone in the world is just like you
But to you they're all motions to go through
Give me something to live for, and I won't look back
Show me everyone's a lesson, then an act
Forgive me I just don't get it
I'm sorry I still don't understand
Look yourself in the mirror, are you there?
Give me something to live for, and I won't look back
Show me everyone's a lesson, then an act
So open your eyes
Don't let this feeling inside
Question everything you are, everything you are
Breathe in deep, don't let the water fill your lungs
Awake but motionless is such an ever-calming ground
Again,again, again, your words, they ring so clear now
So quick, I'm heading right into destruction
Don't let go
So focus on a way out
It's not supposed to be like this
So focus, it's close now
This is very far from never ending
This is nothing you won't live through
And I won't let you fall any further
If we sold our souls, what then do we live for?
And I won't let you fall any further
Never let it leave your mind, you are so alive
When you're on your way home, you will know
So focus on a way out
It's not supposed to be like this
So focus, it's close now
This is very far from never ending
To be set free, would be the first step away from me
To be set free, would be the first and last in steps to sanity
Do you have the strength to walk away?
(Come closer now, we're getting closer now)
Do you know how to live any other way?
(Come closer now, we're getting closer now)
So focus on a way out
It's not supposed to be like this
So focus, it's close now
Compete to survive it's a
Way of life
It is natural competition
When we have our doubts
The weak are weeded out
It is natural selection
This action brings me to you
I've no clue
How you stand here now
Has it failed somehow
And now you're walking the earth
With your curse
You are inside out
Who you are
Is really coming together
Your color's coming
Under your skin
And you will glow
A shade of yellow forever
Letting people know
To never ever let you in
Your lack of speech
Makes me believe
You were skipped by evolution
There are sounds we make
That could set things straight
But you don't know how to use them
Afraid to open your mouth
It comes out in a clearer way
Than you ever could say
And now you're walking the earth
With your curse
Slowly fading away
Who you are
Is really coming together
Your color's coming
Under your skin
And you will glow
A shade of yellow forever
Letting people know
To never ever let you in
And now you're tangled
In a wicked web
Made of everything
That you wish you never did
(That you wish you never did)
Who you are
Is really coming together
Your color's coming
Under your skin
And you will glow
A shade of yellow forever
Letting people know
To never ever let you in
It's a basic human need
Feeling beautiful
But you coat your broken body
So subliminal
(So subliminal)
And the colors that you wear
Hide a criminal
You devour classic beauty
You destroy it all
There's no easy way to say this
Miss America
Is a slave from the waist down
Stealing the whole town's love
And good little girls
Won't stay away
It's amazing how quickly
They shed their youth
As you capture everyone
With your distorted truth
Your words and your ways
Are absolute
As you rob them of potential
To be just like you
There's no easy way to say this
There's no pretty way to say this
Miss America
Is a slave from the waist down
Stealing the whole town's love
And good little girls
Won't stay away
(Stay, stay, stay)
Stay away
(Stay, stay, stay)
Stay away
(Stay, stay, stay)
Stay away
(Stay, stay, stay)
Stay away
Miss America
Is a slave from the waist down
Stealing the whole town's love
And good little girls
For what it's worth, it's just not worth it
Save it for somebody who truly deserves it
Surely this all can't be real
These clones that can't even feel
Ascend their ladders with ease
So effortlessly...
I'm just trying to get out this time
You know what I'm talking about
Cause I've heard the same thing a thousand times
Everyday
I fell in love the first time I heard it
I wanted part of it, I thought it was perfect
But then the swarm came along
Taught everybody their song
Their numbers blocked out the sun
What have we done?
If this who I should be now
I don't want anymore of it
What you can't stand
Don't let it grow
Don't let the roots
Entangle your soul
('Tangle your soul)
Wasting no one's time
But your own
You'll be what you've done
Not what you think of
When you're alone
Now that I've got something to say
I'll open up my mouth
So here's to finding your way
Finding your way
How will you make
Them remember your name
When everyone here
Seems exactly the same
But there's so much to give up
Don't just throw it away
So go on and make
Them remember your name
When the world seems to go wrong
The day that you feel
Like you don't belong
Keep in mind life's just a song
A song without words
Waiting for you to sing along
Now that I've got something to say
I'll open up my mouth
So here's to finding your way
Finding your way
(Oh, oh)
How will you make
(Oh, oh)
Them remember your name
(Oh, oh)
When everyone here
(Oh, oh)
Seems exactly the same
(Oh, oh)
But there's so much to give up
(Oh, oh)
Don't just throw it away
(Oh, oh)
So go on and make
(Oh, oh)
Them remember your name
You're fine
You're fine
Don't waste
The rest of your life
You're fine
You're fine
Don't waste
The rest of your life
How will you make
Them remember your name
When everyone here
Seems exactly the same
(Oh, oh)
How will you make
(Oh, oh)
Them remember your name
(Oh, oh)
When everyone here
(Oh, oh)
Seems exactly the same
(Oh, oh)
But there's so much to give up
(Oh, oh)
Don't just throw it away
(Oh, oh)
So go on and make
(Oh, oh)
I don't want to believe
That it's too late, too late
But you're showing me
It may be too late, too late
Open your eyes
You're the dead in disguise
Forget your Friday night
Think about your life
Believe me
There has to be
A better way
For everything
I don't want to be
The bearer of bad news
But I will
And I don't want to believe
That it's too late, too late
But you're showing me
It may be too late, too late
Things you don't know
(Things you don't know)
Will continue to grow
(Continue to grow)
Your weakness is exposed
And we're all letting go
Believe me
There has to be
A better way
For everything
I don't want to be
The bearer of bad news
But I will
(Whoa)
And I don't want to believe
(Oh, oh)
That it's too late, too late
(Whoa)
But you're showing me
(Oh, oh)
It may be too late, too late
(Whoa)
And I don't want to believe
(Oh, oh)
That I am wasting all my time
(Whoa)
On a lost cause that won't listen
(Oh, oh)
Who will gladly live a lie
Since you refuse my help again
(Since you refuse my help again)
I'll say goodbye to you my friend
(I'll say goodbye to you my friend)
Best of luck to you
(Best of luck to you)
(Whoa)
And I don't want to believe
(Oh, oh)
That it's too late, too late
(Whoa)
But you're showing me
(Oh, oh)
It may be too late, too late
(Whoa)
And I don't want to believe
(Oh, oh)
That I am wasting all my time
(Whoa)
On a lost cause that won't listen
(Oh, oh)
I am drowning in dry land
Distance is swallowing me
And this keeps my sanity close
But far from inside of my body
Complete lunacy
I will no longer keep this within me
The closest thing to me at heart
Is the furthest thing away to touch
And all these undeservers take for granted
What we deserve so much
The world has been pulled to my feet
Closer than it's ever been
This is something to live for
The beautiful mess I am in
Complete lunacy
I will no longer keep this within me
The closest thing to me at heart
Is the furthest thing away to touch
And all these undeservers take for granted
What we deserve so much
I know this feeling's heaven sent
And I am so confident
I will regain my sanity
When "goodbye"s a memory
Complete lunacy
I will no longer keep this within me
The closest thing to me at heart
Is the furthest thing away to touch
And all these undeservers take for granted
What we deserve so much
The whole entire world
Is not enough to make my body still
And no matter of miles
Beckoned silent by a shift in light, I felt a change
Everything I thought I knew was simply lifted from my veins
There was surrender, there were no tears
But my broken face would shed a thousand years
This is the sound that my heart made
Beating faster, faster, forcing me to lift my head
This is the sound of perfection
I buried my broken heart in you
So safe from over-exposure
And my eyes closed from comfort in you
Pull me closer
And your words encircle my head like a halo
This is the sound that my heart made
Beating faster, faster, forcing me to lift my head
This is the sound of perfection
We ran for the doorway
The constellations wait above
What better ceiling for two crazy kids in love
We thought it perfect
We knew everything was gonna be alright
Just look at our footsteps
Hello
I'll press my lips
To yours to explain
Sporadically
Use my tongue to reiterate
In the form of an
Oxygen dream
I'm dying to breathe you deeply
Some day, some day
I'll have to turn and walk away
To find my place
I'll search this whole world over
But everything I am
You've got it, you've got it
And I will return
I swear it, I swear it
Don't fear
Though I am gone
I'm still right here
Just like I've been
For twenty-one years
And it's all that
I know how to be
I promise, don't worry about me
Some day, some day
I'll have to turn and walk away
To find my place
I'll search this whole world over
But everything I am
You've got it, you've got it
And I will return
I swear it, I swear it
I'll return to you the day
Your hope is frayed
At all the ends
And I'll cauterize
Your hand in mine
And never let go
Some day, some day
(Some day)
I'll have to turn and walk away
To find my place
(Find my place)
I'll search this whole world over
But everything I am
(All I am)
You've got it, you've got it
And I will return
(I'll return)
Calm down, listen close, and I'll explain your potential
You've got a lot to learn
See, you and me, we're meant to be instrumental
We are guardians in this world
If chivalry lives with the last man standing
I'm gonna fight all day
So let go, let go
You destroy yourself when you're someone else
And I know, like you know
You're intended for so much more than this
If you don't allow my voice to be the one you confide in
I'm simply letting you know
I'll be sure to be the one you collide with
So you grow how you need to grow
So little of you know your purpose of protection
Nowhere to go
As the day comes to a close
Here's where I fear
I am losing all control
I stay in this town
Where I've wasted countless days
As I close my eyes
I feel comfort far away
When I sleep, when I dream
Does somebody
Take control of me
When I sleep, when I dream
Does someone else
Take control of my body
I wake the next day
And see I haven't moved
All that I saw
Just a fabricated truth
It's not hard to feel
Like a hollow human shell
And she's next to me
Have I wasted her as well
When I sleep, when I dream
Does somebody
Take control of me
When I sleep, when I dream
Does someone else
Take control of my body
When I sleep, when I dream
If someone else
Takes control of me
Show me I'm
Capable of great things
Tell me I
Haven't wasted my body
Help me out
Allow me to truly exist
Guide me out
'Cause I know I'm better than this
When I sleep, when I dream
Does somebody
Take control of me
When I sleep, when I dream
Does someone else
Take control of my body
When I sleep, when I dream
If someone else
Takes control of me
Show me I'm
Capable of great things
Tell me I
Haven't wasted my body
Help me out
Allow me to truly exist
Guide me out
For you to tell me I'm way out of line, kid
Is an understatement
Today I'm bold enough to start a war on
Everyone around me
And if you run, don't ever stop...
When you retreat again
Make it far enough to lose your way back
I'll be a gentleman
And leave it to you to keep your distance
To say the least, I've been so very tired of you
Of all of this
Time and again, trying to bury you
God it feels better now
Like an empire crumbling at my feet
I saw your character cracking
And it was call and response
Now I no longer hear you
I was so many things before being honest
And I'll be so many more before I do it again
These words are alleviation
I'll brush you out of my head
I'm not taking myself back to prison
I'll bring myself back from the dead
I've heard every word, and I've been where you've been
But I left it cause I was ashamed of
Watching kids turn to slaves as they ran down the page
To become exactly what they're afraid of
So leave me alone, leave me alone
I'm so tired of what you believe in
If you're heading home, make your way home
You'll stay far away from me then
So they come to your door and they fall on the floor to seduce you
A beggar in nice clothes
Money then grows on trees with your heart as a seed
When it's planted and watered with false hope
So leave me alone, leave me alone
I'm so tired of what you believe in
If you're heading home, make your way home
You'll stay far away from me then
They ask for your eyes to hold up the sky another day
But I live forever, deep in the minds
When I drive to fast and hit a wall
Or drink myself to the hospital
I'm the only one to blame
(Blame, blame, blame)
And as sirens haunt my city streets
And though that sound is after me
Calmly I await the change
(Change, change, change)
So don't wait
For the world to get better
You're gonna waste
The time you have
Ah, ah, and you won't get it back
When you fall
When you break
When you wish you didn't feel
Keep your head
Don't forget
It's the pain that makes us real
I know most of the time
It's hard to keep in mind
From lessons learned
Comes better life, better life
When I play too hard
And break my bones
Depress myself to the lowest lows
I'm the only one to blame
(Blame, blame, blame)
'Cause the choice is mine
And mine alone
And I choose to learn as I go
Clarity will come from pain
(Pain, pain, pain)
So don't wait
For the world to get better
You're gonna waste
The time you have
Ah, ah, and you won't get it back
When you fall
When you break
When you wish you didn't feel
Keep your head
Don't forget
It's the pain that makes us real
I know most of the time
It's hard to keep in mind
From lessons learned
Comes better life, better life
So don't wait
(Oh)
For the world to get better
So don't wait
(Oh)
For the world to get better
My understanding of
The world feels broken
And it's demanding
My immediate attention
You're looking up
Believing you will leave
Your problems below
Forget what you believe
Use what you know
(Use what you know)
When you fall
When you break
When you wish you didn't feel
Keep your head
Don't forget
It's the pain that makes us real
I know most of the time
(Most of the time)
It's hard to keep in mind
(Keep in mind)
From lessons learned
(Lessons learned)
Just call me a trigger
And I will act accordingly
I must say I've been quiet for too long
Stopping every word from coming out
I'm breathing something different
Each time that I open up my mouth
We will all be a million things before we simply fall right into place
For those of you wide awake wondering day after day
What will I be? What was I made for?
We all have forever, we'll all get better
Don't worry yourself to death
You've got a face and a name
Everything you need to be okay
Just wait for time to tell you
Save your worry for beyond the grave
We will all be a million things before we simply fall right into place
For those of you wide awake wondering day after day
What will I be? What was I made for?
We all have forever, we'll all get better
Don't worry yourself to death
Just call me a trigger
And I will act accordingly
Say what you need to say to yourself
Take what you want, we're all here to help
The world is ours for the taking
For those of you wide awake wondering day after day
What will I be? What was I made for?
We all have forever, we'll all get better
I'm still looking for a way out
A way to tear myself apart, to save my failing heart
I watch my country fall to pieces
Feel my hands abandon me
My head is sick with propaganda
So I fill the streets
I will sell my soul, but I dare not sell my brain
Cause it's all I need to be anyone, anything
I will sell my soul, but I dare not sell my brain
If you can't see the change in me, then I will always be the same
Face to face I shed my skin
I push my parallel into place, to save my family name
Swing low, sweet ambulance come cure me
Hope's not an inch away from death
I'm tangled deep inside a memory, and it's all that I have left
I will sell my soul, but I dare not sell my brain
Cause it's all I need to be anyone, anything
I will sell my soul, but I dare not sell my brain
If you can't see the change in me, then I will always be the same
I'll always be the same...
I will sell my soul, but I dare not sell my brain
Cause it's all I need to be anyone, anything
I will sell my soul, but I dare not sell my brain
he world's supposed to spin one way
And all of us move along
Then why does it feel like this
Like everything about it's wrong
The human race is on the run
At risk of being thrown away
The species left without a cause
Each person less unique each day
What is it that we wait for
What is it that awakens inside us to be more
I believe that we're sleeping
And wasting all of our time
What is it that we wait for
Consuming personalities
Shopping for skin to wear
We'd rather be somebody else
Than build upon what's already there
We all begin to fade away
Swallowed by the softening times
The consequences sing us to sleep
Arrested by a lullaby
We've been sleeping for years
Walking on lines
Dying to live with the softening times
Why do we go and bury our lives
Well I built the world around me
Like a blueprint I ve been studying for years
And I ve been getting lost along the way
As I disconnect the past and present
Others have defined my biggest fears
Now I don t hear a single word they say
Open eyes
Cloudy for a history
Walking blind
Believing what we think we believe
And no we, won t stop
We won t stop building
In our invisible world
But when they fall
The clarity will kill us all
And it comes to us by nature
The confidence in how it all should be
Everyone s a criminal of pride
And we reach inside of one another
Vilify the past and let it speak
And whatever remains is cast aside
Cloudy for a history
Walking blind
Believing what we think we believe
And no we, won t stop
We won t stop building
In our invisible world
But when they fall
The clarity will kill us all
We build our walls and hope they never fade away
We won t stop, we won t stop
Building
What feels like comfort ends up being our decay
We won t stop, we won t stop
Building
Until open eyes
Clouded from our history
Come to find
All the people underneath
Open eyes
Cloudy for a history
Walking blind
Believing what we think we believe
And no we, won t stop
We won t stop building
In our invisible world
But when they fall
I've been away for months
And I can't really take it anymore
'Cause every time I go
I learn the hours better than before
I know there's twenty-four and they're moving slow
Because the minutes carry me away
Am I spending time, is it spending me
'Cause every second feels like it's a day
Where did it go
I never cared for tomorrow
Just a wonderful lie
The confident kid who would never die
The world was weighing down
And I just can't ignore it anymore
'Cause every time I leave
It kills me as I'm walking out the door
For I am well aware this is all I have
People in places that I've grown to need
And it's enough to make every second seem
Like it's the currency of feeling free
It's broken my heart, I'm seeing inside
With every breath I take I'm more aware of time
Yeah where can I find the peace of mind
If actions speak louder than words I'll make it clear,
By clenching both my fists I know my clarity is here.
And it's been a long way down for me,
It's been a long way down but now I finally see.
Believe too long and it starts coming true,
it could be wrong but it won't matter.
Chorus:
Am I the only one, who sees what you've become?
Another way to say that there is nothing left.
Someone I used to know, buried so far below.
And now we're buried under, what we'll never understand.
Like a stranger I am on the outside looking in,
I tore myself apart and I am left a skeleton.
And it's been a long way down for me,
it's a been a long way down but now I finally see.
Believe too long and it starts coming true,
it could be wrong but it won't matter.
Am I the only one who sees what you've become?
Another way to say that there is nothing left.
Someone I used to know buried so far below.
And now we're buried under what we'll never understand.
I will never understand.
Am I the only one who sees what you've become?
Another way to say...
Believe too long and it starts coming true,
it could be wrong but it won't matter,
it won't matter.
Chorus:
Am I the only one who sees what you've become?
Another way to say that there is nothing left.
Someone I used to know buried so far below.
And now we're buried under what we'll never understand.
I will never understand.
I will never understand.
I will never understand.
I see it every time that I'm walking around
Too many broken faces pointed straight to the ground
A brand new beaten posture that is built by the weight
Of a brand new world
And I can't help but notice there's a subtle worry looming
The broken state of everything is making broken humans
It goes on long enough and it awakens evolution
And we disappear
Oh no
Can't you see you're in control
Get out of your heart
Get out of your head
Let go
Every day
Is a new life if you say
"Get out of my heart
Get out of my head
Awake I'm alive
Asleep I'm dead"
Control what you can
Disregard the fabricated law of the land
And know that you can do much more with a day
Than just survive
The beauty of perspective is how easily it changes
Life can be as beautiful and all you want to make it
It goes on long enough and evolution is awakened
And we carry on
I wait for you to say
"I know my life doesn't have to be this way"
The darkness doesn't have to swallow you whole
I swear you're in control
Get out of my heart
Get out of my head
Get out of my heart
Get out of my head
Get out of your heart
Another day that feels like falling
As I hear direction calling me
Away from those paths I chose
When I was twenty-three
And I know it's detrimental
'Cause when I miss my potential
I can hardly sleep
But when I do I die in all my dreams
'Cause it pains me to think
Could I have been better in another life
I don't want to know
I have come this far and I'm not giving up
(Not yet, not yet, not yet, no)
Though I gamble with everything I love
(Not yet, not yet, not yet)
I can't live a perfect life
And I know that there's no answer
But I know that I'm not giving up
I'm not giving up
And I trade these easy vices
For an end to sacrifices
I have run my hands through heaven
And I have dipped my feet in hell
But my days have served me well
I know how to lose everything
And pick up where I fell
But it pains me to think
Could I have been better in another life
I don't want to know
If I could try another life
How would I know I'd get it right
A different man, a different mind
Another soul with time to feel alive
I can't live this perfect life
And I won't care if there's an answer
Now I'm going to beg you
To leave your books at home
Stand still all alone and feel
What you really are
Part of a war
Armed with words to say
Though the truth is all man made
You stay in a prison with no bars
Firing away
You search for an answer
And divide the human race
Void of fact or void of faith
There will always be a part
Out of your reach
To make your truth complete
An elusive piece will constantly
Destroy your head and heart
As you look to the heavens
As you question the sea
You will disregard the life that's in between
'Cause above it all you will never know
You may don your wings, you may decompose
In the end you'll know
But for now don't miss a thing
You may side with science
You may side with God
But you're human being above it all
And the truth may divide you
But the truth is you're flawed
Hello, I'll press my lips to yours to explain
Sporadically use my tongue to
reiterate
In the form of an oxygen dream
I'm dying to breathe you
deeply
Someday I'll have to turn and walk away
To find my place, I'll
search this whole world over
But everything I am, you've got it
I will
return, I swear it
Don't fear, though I am gone I'm still right here
Just
like I've been for 21 years
And it's all that I know how to be
I promise,
don't worry about me
I'll return to you the day your hope is frayed at all
the ends
I lost myself in her again but I don't care
Even when I'm all alone she's standing there
So I lie awake and I waste away
To disappear for a moment
Is she only in my dreams
Will I ever be released
She's my best mistake
And I like paying for it
Overanalytical and open wide
We're conjuring the chemical side by side
We're tangled up and we hide away
To leave the world for a moment
She's consuming constantly
And I forget everything I need
She's my best mistake
I turn my laugh in two pull the ends apart
are you seeing who you wanna see 'cause I
feel caught in the middle.
I turn my life in two into the ends apart
are you seeing who you wanna see, 'cause I,
I feel caught in the middle.
I'm both the sinner and the gentlemen at heart
I except that without questioning
'cause I, I'm so sick of the real.
Chorus:
I'm caught between two lights
and every second second second I'm awake
I check the flash and so I won't forget my face
and it's alright 'cause I will never never never let it change
and it's coming crown that calms me walking separate ways.
It's been a while how I.both my lives,
spend the little too much of my time in one
and I'll damage the other
it's our.conception out the fall and I'll always recover.
Chorus:
I'm caught between two lights
and every second second second I'm awake
I check the flash and so I won't forget my face
and it's alright 'cause I will never never never let it change
and it's coming crown that calms me walking separate ways.
I'm caught between two lights.
I'm caught between two lights
But it's alright, it's alright
Chorus:
I'm caught between two lights
and every second second second I'm awake
I check the flash and so I won't forget my face
and it's alright 'cause I will never never never let it change
and it's coming crown that calms me walking separate ways.
Walking separate ways.
Oh oh oh, oh, oh oh oh
I admit the rotting state of chivalry
And I am well aware that vermin will infest my city streets, yeah
But I never thought that I'd find you
Walking with the worst of them, ignoring what you knew
Didn't it cross your mind
I didn't have to hear it
You were looking, you were thinking
"Why not, she's worth it"
Couldn't wait to find her drinking
My god, you're worthless
I thought I knew you and I thought I could believe the words you say
You took advantage anyway
I understand the trying times
And I believe that every criminal should pay for all their crime
But I never thought I'd find a friend
In such blatant disregard for how it all would end
Now you've crossed the line
Don't fuck with my life
You keep alluding to the truth you'll never say
With every word you'll blow yourself away
I'm at a loss, just who the hell do you think you are
All the girls and boys who fill their voids
With anything that comes
Are you aware of what you've done?
'Cause I can't believe the mockery
The mess you've made of love
If you hunt a word, the feeling will never come
And I try to through broken eyes
And I try to learn the lesson
Then I let it die
Lost love push shove
Feel it in my bones again
And your weight will drown me, crown me
King of all the skeletons
And although I will walk with the dead men
I won't stop till I know when
This will end like everything must end
I'll outgrow my bones again
All the suits and ties afraid of time
Will never make amends
Are you aware you'll come undone?
You think you'll fly beyond our sky
The ground won't see you end
But you're only melting in the sun
Tear those wings off
You are one of us
Why can't you see you could be free again
If you just simply choose to be
I swear you could make it feel good again
If you just simply let it be
