Woe is me, oh this deception modifies myself
I've hurt my feelings now
Searching for reasons to make me sad
And always stricken with doubt
On the outside I'm small and grim
And on the in I'm feeling proud
Fearing I'm one in the same
No one remembers my name
Help me
Alone in confinement and shame
Help me...
Understanding this isn't something that controls my life
I'd rather feed my pride
I'm painted black just like my world is dark
Might stick around for the ride
Woe, no feeling sorry for this lonely one
Just two or three are on my side
Woe, if we work together we can bring them down
How does that sound?
Fearing I'm one in the same
No one remembers my name
Help me
Alone in confinement and shame
Help me...
Everybody knows at least one
Scoffing at the phony fun
Never know why or what for
I'd love to see your face on the floor
Fearing I'm one in the same
No one remembers my name
Help me
Woe is me (oh woe is me)
I’ve gotta be (I’ve gotta be)
I never thought that (I never thought)
You’d ever leave me (ever leave me)
Oh now that you’re gone (now that you’re gone)
And you walked out the door (walked out the door)
Oh I’ll never see you
No never no more no more no more no more
No never no more
I told you lies (I told you lies)
Brought tears to your eyes (tears to your eyes)
I thought you’d forgive me
I didn’t realize (didn’t realize)
That I hurt you so bad (hurt you so bad)
And it made you so made (made you so mad)
That I’ll never see you
No never no more no more no more no more
No never no more
Oh woe is me (oh woe is me)
It’s just not the same (it’s not the same)
Left here without you
Oh now ain’t it a shame (ain’t it a shame)
I, I love you so (I love you so)
Oh but you’ll never know (you’ll never know)
Because I’ll never see you
No never no more no more no more no more
No never no more
Oh woe is me (oh woe is me)

I'd just like to take one moment to thank my two fathers,
who have been so supportive of me in all of my endeavors.
Thank you dads!

CARL (spoken)
Practice your breathing, Logainne.
LOGAINNE
Though I practice yoga
I don't breathe
I try not to disappoint
But still I
Disappoint the dads
Who my friends mock
Kids are mean
Kids'll talk
All my so-called friends roll their eyes
They're incredibly petty
Because my dads are my dads
And alright enough already

There's a girl that you should know
She was mine not so long ago
Had my number and we fell in love
She put me under and I got lost
Lost my nerve and I lost my head
Just about everything I had
Washed out in a windy sea
Couldn't see my hand in front of me
Woe is me
Woe is me
Hey, do you wanna walk with me
By the trees and the factories
Hey, do you wanna hop the fence
In the sleepy red sunset
There's a girl that you should know
She was mine not so long ago
Had my number and we fell in love
She put me under and I got lost
Woe is me
Woe is me
Woe is me
Woe is me
Now the street light bright and pale
As we sip our ginger ale
I kiss you by the blinking sign
Don't get heavy, let's be light
On and on
Our merry way
On and on
Our merry way
On and on
Our merry way
On and on
We will live forever:
And if I were you I'd fear me more than death himself, because when I am through with all I'll do you'll wish to burn in motherfucking hell.
So let us open the gates of hell for the likes of you.
May God rest your soul when we are through.
This is our vengeance.
Orphan of broken dreams:
Your word isn't what it seems.
You're jealous and weak:
Stay humble and meek
And one day you might succeed.
Maybe one day I'll probably make more of an impact than you'll ever fake and I'll take what is rightfully mine.
You ran away so I'm calling the shots this time.
I'll take their hopes I'll take their dreams I'll take everything that would ever mean a single hint of trust from them you never cared so I will always win.
For every kid that you hear screaming loud and clear:
You left them in fear.
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I ripped the tongue from his mouth and left him gasping for breath.
I told you that you'll reap what you sow:
But you wanted fame
So fuck your ego.
How could you think this would go down so easy??
Your words are misleading blinded by the glare of the spotlight now your fiending.
How could you think this would go down so easy?
Well you can huff and you can puff and try and blow my house down,
But I take comfort in the fact that I have stolen your crown.
Go ahead with the childish games you play and at the end of the day we've got the final say.
I bet you never saw this coming
The tensions rise in your mind and you think back to realizing everything that you left behind.
The mask that you wear is just an illusion we've picked up our cross we've found a solution.
You've lost your flames in the darkest of night your ambitions are falling out of sight.
Selfishness owns you I hope you can see,
The family you loved is now the enemy.
The sins of the universe were placed upon Him, leaving our filthy stains.
His HOLY body was placed in behind a rock for three days and nights.
He descended into the earth, into the place where spirits where held.
He took the keys of hell and death, plans of the enemy failed.
Wake up in the morning feeling’ like P’Diddy,
grab my glasses I’m out the door I’m bout to hit this city,
before I leave brush my teeth with a bottle of jack,
cause when I leave for the night I ain’t coming back,
I’m talking pedicure on our toes, trying on all our clothes,
“scenies” blowing up our phones,
drop topping’ playing our favorite CDs pulling up to the parties,
trying to get a little bit tipsy
Don’t stop make it pop,
DJ blow my speakers up
tonight I’m fight till we see the sunlight,
tik tok on the clock,
the party don’t stop no
Ain’t got a care in the world but got plenty of beer,
ain’t got no money in my pocket but I’m already here,
now the girls are lining up because they hear we got swagger,
but we kick em’ to the curb “because” they look like McJagger
I’m talking bout,
everybody getting crunk,
girls trying to touch my junk,
everybody getting drunk
and we go until they kick us out,
or the police shut us down,
police shut us down,
Po Po shut us down
[Chorus]
You build me up you break me down,
my heart it pounds yeah you got me,
with my hands up you got me now,
you got that sound, yeah you got me
Now the party don’t start till we walk in,
“You can’t handle us, cause we’re so fucking scandalous,
no one ever planned for us, Woe, Is Me
get down with us, ATL, raise some hell yo!”
I'm not looking back
where everything was so familiar
but so far away, so far away
oh my there is no ending
I can't escape for this anymore
oh God there's no way outta here
the walls are closing in
everthing ive ever loved is gone
take this for what its worth
I've found there is no meaning
this is the end of me
and im not holding back
the worst is over
theres no tomorrow
this is your way out
my God you lost a world you tried to make us love
we havent seen the world
since you took our bodies and led them to the skies
as it carries us away
I can feel his hands as they pull me in
by your grace God let me fly
set me free
let me fly
The sin of the world was placed upon Him, leaving our filthy stains.
His holy body was placed in the earth for three days and three nights.
He descended low into the earth, the place where spirits where held.
He took the keys of hell and death, plans of the enemy failed.
Into hell and back again, capturing captivity.
Into hell and back again, openly.
The battle has been won.
The tomb is empty; He's alive.
He ascended on high.
No more sneaking through life,
it's like a sickness we all have.
like a cancer eating away,
like a fire burning our flesh
It's the pain we feel
that stains our surface
I've been running in circles
trying to figure out how to shed this skin.
I've hid these problems for far too long,
I need to face reality.
God take this and make it yours,
I can't do this on my own
Six feet under the earth is where you'll reside
It's time to see the bastard you've become,
Because I know your father didn't raise you this way
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree,
And everybody says, you're just like me
I begin to lift up my own flaws, to better you
They say my head is my only prison, so I'll lock you up, I'll nail you down,
I keep you safe, I'll keep you sound, I'll burn this to the ground
So watch where you're standing, for this ground sinks so quick
When you are drowning, in water all so thick, I won't hear you screaming now
I am the monster you created, and like a mountain we look down on kings
You reside in me, my thoughts and my dreams, won't die
I had a feeling this lie would go insane,
I should stab this vengeance through your name
Hindsight is my only flaw
Right after we fail it's easy to realize the things we've lost
Push comes to shove, their only excuse is we do it out of love
There we flee trying to please everyone that we see fit for the trifold
Behind everything, inside we choose to hide
Because we have the sense to do this for the sake of pride
Business aside
Modest, we condescend, while you're looking up reaching for my hand
Now tell me, who's the bigger man
Never take your sight of these trophies in the light
Because the thieves of the swell will try to steal our thunder
Expect all is well but they're holding us under
When all we have, is all we know
We've tasted flight, we will forever move this earth
I'd like to thank the devil inside for slamming so many doors
But I thank God for opening so many more
I hold the key to your teeth that preach those crooked words
I think you've just about lost, your sense of self,
Your foundations are crumbling down
I told you so, told you so
Don't be the one to say you know what's right
I told you so, told you so
Don't be the one to say you know my heart
Don't be torn from your roots, you won't live in this pursuit
You won't survive above this ground,
It won't be long until you're home bound
Stop pretending
Drawing the lines you're not concerned about me,
I'm losing confidence, why do you show no mercy [2x]
These branches are burning, these branches won't pull me down,
Back to the ground, where I am standing, safe and sound
Who are you, to tell us who we are
Who are you, you're a fiend, you're a liar,
And I will summon the hands of a fighter,
And you will know, who we are [4x]
You say you know who I am, you'll only bring me down,
You'll only bring me down, you left me cold at home,
Timid, he was a broken loner
In this ghost town,
And it drained the hate from his mind,
Now there's nothing left inside
Rumors and lies
Are all you've got, they're all you've got, are all you've got
Mother, Father, where have you been?
I needed you,
I needed you
What have we become,
Mere shadows, standing alone, inside and out,
This incarceration is tearing me down
What have we become,
Mere shadows, standing alone, its inside and out,
This incarceration is tearing me down
And, oh, have I become a mere shadow standing alone,
Inside I cry out,
Screaming I make no sound
Screams
He finds,
I'm the one who haunts her dreams,
Her life torn at the seams,
You change your mind like a girl changes clothes
Yeah, you PMS like a bitch that I know
And you always think, always speak cryptically
You're no good for me
'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
You, you don't really wanna stay, no
But you, you don't really wanna go, oh
You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down
(Uh, what's your problem? Like we used to be chill and stuff.
I saw what you said on your twitter, oh my gawd)
We used to be just like twins, so in sync
The same energy now's a dead battery
Used to laugh 'bout nothing, now you're plain boring
I should know that you're not gonna change
'Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down
You're wrong when it's right
You're black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
You, you don't really wanna stay, no
But you, you don't really wanna go, oh
Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down
Someone call the doctor
Got a case of a love biploar
Stuck on a roller coaster
Can't get off this ride
You change your mind like a.. psycho bitch,
but the sex is good so I think I'll keep ya around
ahem, what?!
You're just too damn hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down
You're wrong when it's right
You're black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
You, you don't really wanna stay, no
But you, you don't really wanna go, oh
Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes and you're no
You're in then you're out
Leave me here,
Biting my nails, breaking my stride,
I put my faith into your desolate life
Happened so fast that I should be afraid, I won't be afraid
Three years blessed, I gave it my best,
It's time to put it all to rest
Your present is my past
Through my eyes, I've seen nothing but time,
Forty four thousand lies
Straight from your putrid mind
High tides drag you through the decades of nights,
At anguish cause you'll never know why
Loved ones who turn out your lights, seem like they care
I am an island, and you're the tides that pull at my feet,
but now she's sinking in this void
Aging, forcing my nerves
Cut your chords, count your chores, stop using yourself,
for fruitless scars,
just cut your chords
And your back will keep breaking,
From this glass house,
that you have created
Hear me out, your heart is to heavy, to heavy for trust
So build me a promise and take my advice a word from the wise
A fault confessed, I have redressed,
she feels such unrest,
so pray, so fucking pray
Your true colors ar starting to get loud,
Have fun praying to your great god now,
All that you taught me to be,
Was a Moore, a dreamer that only refused to dream,
Oh save it please, my voice is is peaking through your speakers and
I'm speaking just to show you the way,
How could you, shelter me out I'm much older now,
You shatter like a beaker when I only want to show you the way, and
I'll build my way out of your demise, these dreams are my castles,
Not the walls you built up around me, when I look into my watch and
I know, that time is, time is gold, your true colors at starting to get
loud
And have fun praying to your grey gold now,
And when all your cards are on the table, make sure it's till in stable,
And when all your cards are on the table, make sure it's still in stable
and dance, your life away,
And this war it don't determine who's right,
This war just determines whos left standing tonight,
Atop handing me lights, I can se what you are in the dark just fine,
And I'm not blind, I'm mending the blinds, peaking through to get a
glimpse of your anguishing life,
Your hiding like a vampire comes to strife,
But it won't harm me cause I get a thrill,
And your true colors are starting to get loud,
No one ever said that you had to face this on your own.
Just do your best, forget the rest,
you're stronger than you know
So let it all go.
Don't dwell on all the things that you can't change,
'Cause we are stronger,
oh, we're so much stronger than we know.
One by one you gave up hope and you prayed to God that I would choke,
But I paid no mind to your attack
because empty words can never hold me back.
Every dream begins with a dreamer,
We have a hope we must defend.
No matter what, we'll come out swinging,
We haven't reached the end.
Every dream begins with a dreamer,
We have a hope we must defend.
No matter what, we'll come out swinging,
We haven't reached the end.
Just know you're not alone, we'll always be your home.
So never give up hope and know you're not alone;
And you don't have to face this on your own
We said that we would live forever
Well you laughed instead, you said we're dead.
So get this through your head, I've got one more left.
You better be ready to bring us your worst,
This army is our family, oh,
this is our family,
and family comes first.
Every dream begins with a dreamer,
We have a hope we must defend.
No matter what, we'll come out swinging,
We haven't reached the end.
Every dream begins with a dreamer,
We have a hope we must defend.
No matter what, we'll come out swinging,
Just when things got back to the regular pace,
Disaster showed its ugly face.
So add that to the list of all the reasons why I hate this place,
And when you hit the bottom you can tell me how failure tastes.
I came, I saw, I conquered all.
You're never gonna win,
Because I told you once you son of a bitch,
I'm the best there's ever been.
So here's a word from the wise to the weak.
Having issues doesn't make up for the shit you speak.
If there's one thing I've held inside
And swore to God on my own pride,
It's that I'd leave with nowhere to hide
And haunt your grave 'til the day I die.
God bless only time
Stand up!
You place [?] 'cause you've always gotta be the first one.
Of all the things that I regret, you're easily the worst one.
And when you start to hate the life you made,
Remember you're the one who chose it.
When your time came, you got lost in the fame.
I think you've just about lost, your sense of self,
Your foundations are crumbling down
I told you so, told you so
Don't be the one to say you know what's right
I told you so, told you so
Don't be the one to say you know my heart
Don't be torn from your roots, you won't live in this pursuit
You won't survive above this ground,
It won't be long until you're home bound
Stop pretending
Drawing the lines you're not concerned about me,
I'm losing confidence, why do you show no mercy [2x]
These branches are burning, these branches won't pull me down,
Back to the ground, where I am standing, safe and sound
Who are you, to tell us who we are
Who are you, you're a fiend, you're a liar,
And I will summon the hands of a fighter,
And you will know, who we are [4x]
You say you know who I am, you'll only bring me down,
You'll only bring me down, you left me cold at home,
This is the beginning – of a new lease on life
This freedom, - this passion is how we survive
Only got one life – one chance
To show what I got – and nothing will ever
Take this from me
You can never take this from me
Whatever happened to just – wanting to live your dream,
When no one cared about – the cover of a magazine
This is the price I pay – for the life I’ve made,
But I’m always finding a way to – Stand up,
Can’t you hear the – sound of – a thousand screaming voices,
Eager to watch you succeed – Give them something real to believe
You’ll try everything – to sell your soul for a quick buck,
So look at it this way
Tried to control my life – but I’ve got something to say
Your words, they make me sick,
Mind-blown by all the constant bullshit
Go back to your pathetic life – and let me be
Whatever happened to – just wanting to live your dream,
When no one cared about – the cover of a magazine
This is the price I pay – for the life I’ve made,
But I’m always finding a way to – Stand up,
Can’t you hear the – sound of – a thousand screaming voices,
Eager to watch you succeed
Give them something – real to believe
This is a song for the times I’ve failed
This is a song for the times I got it right
Maybe I’m just a boy – with a dream,
But my dreams are becoming a reality
This is a song for the times you’ve failed
This is a song for the times you got it right
Maybe you’re just someone with a dream,
But your dreams are so close you just have to believe it
Stand up, can’t you hear the sound, – of a thousand screaming voices
Whatever happened to – just wanting to live your dream,
When no one cared about – the cover of a magazine
This is the price I pay – for the life I’ve made,
But I’m always finding a way to – Stand up,
Can’t you hear the – sound of – a thousand screaming voices,
Eager to watch you succeed

What makes you think you can get away with murder
And just walk away from fucking everything?
You'll be the walking dead.
You'll be the walking dead, with our wills around your neck.
So our advice to you is just keep running.
Run from everyone and everything.
What makes you think that you could put our name to shame?
Rest in peace is what they say,
But how can you bury something that came from nothing;
Even though our dreams aren't dead?
And I just can't let this one go, so let's set the story straight.
We will be heard, no matter what the fuck it takes!
And I'll make you realize that you can place the blame,
But you can't erase me from this game.
Because as long as there's you, I'll do what it takes to prove we're still the same.
So what the fuck are we waiting for?
It's time we stand up for ourselves,
And if that doesn't make it clear enough
Then our friends are here to help.
We've been put down by everyone we thought we knew,
But we're just fine here 'cause we could never sink as low as you.
The times have changed, the tables turned.
I thought you'd get the point by now, but I guess that you will never learn.
So just look out for yourself, it seems to be your past time.
So here's your ticket to Hell, it seems you missed it the last time.
Welcome to Hell.
[Matty Mullins Part]
So now it's our turn to speak.
You'll have no choice but to hear us out,
When we tell them about the truth
And how you tried so hard to sell us out.
So just look out for yourself, it seems to be your past time.
So here's your ticket to Hell, it seems you missed it last time.
With the devil on my back
And God in my heart
I used the hands that built you up
To fucking rip you apart
You turned their whole world upside down
And filled heads with doubt
But there's just one small thing you forgot about
That on the other side of heaven
There's always a hell
And that's one fucking place I know all too well
So I'll pick up a pen
And from beginning to end
I'll write the three words we will defend:
Follow your dreams
Don't give in
To all the lies that they fed you
And everything they said about me
Just to deceive you
So let me ask you
Why would I give a fuck?
So sit back, enjoy the show
There's just a few things I think you should know
Like how your sticks and stones
Won't break these bones
Or seize the throne
Because I'm the man of steel
So before you place the blame on anyone else
Why don't you take a step back and fucking start with yourself?
We never gave up
We never gave in
We never gave up on you
And I have learned not to rely on all the promises you make,
'Cause when you play with fire, getting burned is just a chance you take.
I'm running out of time, there's no room for mistakes.
You can use this as you will, but I won't cross my fingers yet.
Wishful thinking lets you down, when what you see is what you get.
Mirror, mirror on the wall,
What made you think you know it all?
You told me that I would fall,
But I'm the one who's standing tall.
I'll give my all
'Cause it's exactly where I'm supposed to be
And not a single fucking one of you will take this from me.
You can think whatever helps you sleep,
But in reality it's obvious that you're in way too deep.
This is exactly where I'm meant to be.
[Featuring: Caleb Shomo of Attack Attack!]
I bet you never thought we'd get this far,
But in the end, we won't give in 'cause it's just who we are.
I still have so much left to say,
So my best advice to you is stay the fuck out of our way.
We will never back down, never give in.
No matter what it takes always believe in;
That when you swallow your pride and put all shit aside,
We'll be the ones standing in the end.
When you hit the road, you left without wasting any time.
You remembered your clothes, but left your spirit behind.
And at night when you're alone inside your head,
Don't pray for sympathy- no, pray for a miracle instead.
You're feeding me excuses and they're making me bitter.
Don't raise a fuss, just keep it up 'cause no one likes a quitter.
Just when you had us all figured out,
There's always one thing you forget about.
So we'll teach you a fucking thing or two,
Of what it means to see shit through.
We'll stand our ground
Right here, right now;
With our friends all behind us
And this vengeance inside us.
We will tear you down.
[Caleb Shomo Part]
Someone once told me that time is gold,
So don't sit and watch it all disappear
Because these, dreams you hold can never be sold.
These dreams are what brought us here.
So fuck everyone else, just believe in yourself.
So find your place, no time to waste.
Did you honestly think for a second we played our final song?
In spite of those who disagree, you know it feels damn good to prove you wrong!
Singing oh whoa, we did it somehow
And oh whoa, it's our turn now
We'll shut you down; you'll drown like the rest of them
Need I remind you?
That you're up against the best of them!
So let me promise you this
With ignorance as your bliss, your name won't ever be missed when we are through with this
I'll be the thought that's in the back of your head
We'll be the monsters hiding under your bed
I'll make you pay for all the things that you said
Use your own line to cut off your fucking head!
I thought I told you once that you reap what you sow
But I guess this time around I'll say I told you so
Now that was clever
But let me make this clear
We are coming for you
We are coming for you!
Tell me why
They painted us with guilt
They said that we're not good enough
The only thing we're guilty of is never giving up
So take a second glance and put yourself into these shoes
We got a second chance and we've got nothing left to lose
So keep singing, oh whoa, whoa
Oh whoa, whoa
So keep singing!
Take a second glance and put yourself into these shoes
It's 3 AM and I can't sleep at all
I'm wide awake instead, so many thoughts have found their way into my head
I ask myself what it is that's making me feel uneasy
Why do I feel like this?
I shouldn't be feeling like this
Cause I am trying, I know you're lying when you say things are fine
But we both knew what we were getting into, this happens every time
These restless nights and hollow days
You feel no need to change your ways
And all this time, I failed to see
The things that I had hoped for were never meant to be
So what's it gonna take for us to figure all this out?
Cause I've only got two weeks left here and right now my head is filled with doubt
Don't take this time for granted, cause when I'm gone you'll wish you hadn't
And appreciate this for what it is, cause pretty soon you're not gonna have it
Cause I am trying, I know you're lying when you say things are fine
But we both knew what we were getting into, this happens every time
These restless nights and hollow days
You feel no need to change your ways
And all this time, I failed to see
The things that I had hoped for were never meant to be
You never know what you have until you lose it
If this is what you really want, then now's your time to prove it,
This is your time to prove it
And all I wanna know is where did we go wrong
Cause I'm sick to death of losing sleep and I'm sick of writing sad songs
These restless nights and hollow days
You feel no need to change your ways
And all this time, I failed to see
The things that I had hoped for were never meant to be
Who are you?
Who do you think you are?
Your opinion means nothing
Your words are shallow and you'll get what you deserve
Get what you deserve
Isn't it funny
How life works in such
Mysterious ways,
Mysterious way?
All my life, I've been waiting for this moment
To live free and be me
All my life, I have always fallen short
But not this time, not this time
All my life, I've been waiting for answer
All my life
You couldn't stop me even if you wanted to
It's plain to see, I wanna be
A voice of hope and not the voice of a dying breed
And finally I'm doing what I wanna do
I've never felt so free in my whole life
There's nothing I would trade for
This is what I was made for
I won't be held back by failure (failure)
It's easy to lose yourself completely
To become your own worst enemy
Yeah, yeah
Don't try to tell me how to live my life
Don't try to justify what's wrong and what's right
Let's put it this way
I've been doing this for far too long
To give up everything I've worked for
I've made my deals and cut my losses
For you it's all about the money (money)
For you it's all about the fame
And how you play the game
You couldn't stop me even if you wanted to
It's plain to see, I wanna be
A voice of hope and not the voice of a dying breed
And finally I'm doing what I wanna do
I've never felt so free in my whole life
There's nothing I would trade for
This is what I was made for (made for)
Cause at the end of the day
We're all just trying to make a way
For ourselves, for ourselves
And I'm giving everything that I have left inside of me
Your words are meaningless
Cause I'm above the negativity
So take these words and hold them close
It's not about where you are right now
You've taken all my will to
Exploit my face behind these hands
And you're far to shallow to drown me in your follies
You wont make it far, this is bigger than who we are
How could you get this far, with such a bitter plan, building all these scars
Just go ahead, pull us out, to sea, relapse to what you were
Such a commodity for you and me to be lost at sea,
You drug me out here but honestly,
I can sleep and preach much better now, in the clear,
You are not to keen, on your current positions
You're to far out to swim your way in,
You're to far out to swim your way [2x]
Now that I'm back to where I started,
Drifting out against the oceans speed,
These waves will take you farther, into the deep
And I said, that this is the end, the end
(Let's both be honest, this is the end)
Pause, fold, contort, all your friends,
They fell short and sold you out
You're to far out, to swim you're way in,
You're to far out, to swim your way [2x]
When all is said, and done,
We face the problems we thought would never come,
These treacheries, will claim you.
It's Your light that guides me,
Welcoming a brand new life, my path has been set straight.
I'm dancing with this fire, I'm dancing with the flame
You say that this scares you, He knows this as well
How can we bridge the path from dark to light
If we live like the rest of them?
Can we portray his love?
We are the Window
What we do is for you
Can we be your hands?
Burn these walls to the ground!
Let your light shine through this veil of darkness
Burn these walls!
Let your light shine through
Cause we are the Window
We must set our own hearts
Straight to lead the weak
We give ourselves to you oh Father
To see the truth within in your hands
Oh God take it all
Fill my lungs
Give me life
We were hollow men
Hot and dangerous
If you're one of us then roll with us
'Cause we make the scene girls fall in love
When we got our tight pants on and up
And yes, of course it does
We're running this town just like a club
And no you don't wanna mess with us
[S] Army on my necklace.
I got that war paint on my eyes
[S] Army standing by my side
Lookin' fresh and modified
So let's go, let's go.
Tonight we're going hard
Just like the world is ours
We're tearing it apart
You know we're superstars,
We are who we are
We're dancing like we're dumb
Our bodies going numb
We'll be forever young
You know we're superstars,
We are who we are.
DJ, turn it up!
It's about damn time to live it up
I'm so sick of being so serious
It's making my brain delirious,
I'm just talking truth
I'm telling you about the shit we do
We're selling our clothes,
Sleeping in vans,
Dressing it down,
Hittin' on bitches hard.
I got that war paint on my eyes
[S] Army standing by my side
Lookin' fresh and modified
So let's go, let's go.
Tonight we're going hard
Just like the world is ours
We're tearing it apart
You know we're superstars,
We are who we are
We're dancing like we're dumb
Our bodies going numb
We'll be forever young
You know we're superstars,
We are who we are.
DJ turn it up!
Now the party hasn't stopped since we walked in
You still can't handle us
'Cause we're still fucking scandalous
No one ever planned for us
Woe, Is Me get down with us
So to all the cities around the world
Raise your glass for a toast to what it means to live
I got that war paint on my eyes
[S] Army standing by my side
Lookin' fresh and modified
So let's go, let's go.
Tonight we're going hard
Just like the world is ours
We're tearing it apart
You know we're superstars
We are who we are.
So let the bass drop!
Woe is me
Woe is me
Flown down the river swimming in deep blue see
I've flown down the river swimming in deep blue see
Woe is me
Took a while but I've finally found that
I'm on my own see
Woe is me
Woe is me
Woe is me
And I don't like to find what a man is got to be
Now I don't like to find what a man is got to be
Woe is me
Took a while but I've finally found that
I'm on my own see
Woe is me
Woe is me
Woe is me
Yeah I know it's a sin but a villa dreamed where I am
I know it's a sin but a villa dreamed where I am
Woe is me
Took a while but I've finally found that
I'm on my own see
Woe is me
Woe is me
