Four walls
Two of us
My feet
And a window to the street
Paintings
Stare at me
They're not yours
There's your necklace on my arm
Cubicles and cotton reels
The hum of the machines
I will not be silenced
I will not be quiet
I will rage at, will rage at the dying of your light
I will not stop fighting
I am here beside you
I'll rage, I will rage at the dying of your light
Needles
In our arms
Medicine
And ink to slow the harm
Skin thin
Blue dressing gown
Sleeping rose
Your blood is still in me.
Miracles and chemicals
The hope of their pursuit
I will not be silenced
I will not be quiet
I'll rage at, will rage at the dying of your light
I will not stop fighting
I am here beside you
I'll rage, I will rage at the dying of your light
I will not be silenced
I will not be quiet
I'll rage, I will rage at the dying of your light
I will not stop fighting
I am here beside you
Can you bring me air
Where I have been
Give me a heart to feel humour
You're like the sun
I'm starting to feel
Where I've been numb
I can't see what's real
So say you'll help me find it
It's been buried
So far under the ground
Deep where noone's around
It's a ghost town
Say there's somebody there
Be my breath I need air
It's a ghost town
Can I hear your voice
From inside these walls
I have begun to feel silence
To stand here and say
Is like battling
Giants
So say you'll help me
Fight them
It's been buried
So far under the ground
Deep where noone's around
It's a ghost town
Say there's somebody there
Be my breath I need air
My love is in the water
My love is out to sea
It sinks among the fishes
It floats away from me
And I don't even cry
No, I don't even cry
Cause I'm forgetting
How that you and I survived
You warned me of the coming of the fall,
You warned me of the ending of it all.
I will come home to, to broken backs,
If you call, if you call.
My love is in the stillness,
My love is in the void.
It fades into the blackout and
It shrinks beneath the noise
And I don't even try
No, I don't even try
Cause I remember
How that you and I survived
You warned me of the coming of the fall,
You warned me of the ending of it all.
(I will come home) You warned me, you warned me
(I will come home) You warned me, you warned me
You warned me of the coming of the fall,
You warned me of the ending of it all.
I will come home to, to broken backs,
If you call, if you call
If you call, if you call
If you call, if you call
I will come home
I will come home
I will come home
I will come home
I will come home to, to broken backs
You will be always on my mind
I don't know how to say goodbye
I wasn't brave enough to cry
I try to leave it all behind
But echoes of you come back around
I hear the echoes of your love
And singing it in my soul
Why are the memories not enough?
I hear the echoes of your love
I gotta let you go
Let all the embers turn to dust, to dust, to dust, to echoes
To echoes
To echoes
Send me a message send a sign
Something to get me through the night
Wherever you are I need to know
Maybe that's why I wait for ghosts
Pieces of you I had to find
I hear the echoes of your love
And singing it in my soul
Why are the memories not enough?
I hear the echoes of your love
I gotta let you go
Let all the embers turn to dust, to dust, to dust, to echoes
To echoes
To echoes
Suddenly I can feel the silence surround me
I suddenly need to hear your voice
I hear the echoes of your love
And singing it in my soul
Why are the memories not enough, enough, enough?
I hear the echoes of your love
I gotta let you go
Let all the embers turn to dust, to dust, to dust, to echoes
To echoes
I can't sleep on through the night,
I don't know if we'll be alright.
I forget all that I know.
I think you're here, but I'm on my own.
Didn't I lose my way,
Holding the lights.
Hoping you'll come while they burn through the night.
Didn't you see the fire,
All that we lost.
Didn't you hear me cry,
Hands in the dust.
I drew a map, to bring you to me.
You shut your eyes and now you can't see.
I walked away, but you didn't call.
What if you don't love me anymore?
Didn't I lose my way,
Holding the lights.
Hoping you'll come while they burn through the night.
Didn't you see the fire,
All that we lost.
Didn't you hear me cry,
Hands in the dust.
I know that I tried everything.
But we hurled the dust, ash on the wind.
I gave you up so you wouldn't say,
I'm not enough to get you to change.
Didn't I lose my way,
Holding the lights.
Hoping you'll come while they burn through the night.
Didn't you see the fire,
All that we lost.
Didn't you hear me cry,
Hands in the dust.
Watching the walls cave in
And you're standing still.
And everyone's turning in,
Hands on the wheel.
You had my what?
You had, my heart.
And I don't wanna love you. oh ohh
We're staring at the second hand
And messages from foreign lands.
There's blood on me, there's blood on you
It's killing me, it's killing you.
Sinking slowly drifting through this falling landslide
All of the time we wasted waiting for the right time.
Huwhoa-oh-whoa
Huwhoa-oh-whoa
Sinking slowly drifting through this falling landslide
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-oooooh)
If falling rocks should break us (?)
They told us that's when we would climb.
The thicker skin could not be moved
But there's blood on me, there's blood on you.
Sinking slowly drifting through this falling landslide
All of the time we wasted waiting for the right time.
Huwhoa-oh-whoa
Huwhoa-oh-whoa
Sinking slowly drifting through this falling landslide
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-oooooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-oooooh)
Call out the (?) is shining
Call out the sky's breaking
Call out the don't (?)
Call out the don't (?)
Sinking slowly drifting through this falling landslide
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-oooooh)
Sinking slowly drifting through this falling landslide
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-oooooh)
Sinking slowly drifting through this falling landslide
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-oooooh)
Huwhoa-oh-whoa
Huwhoa-oh-whoa
Walking down the highway
Traffic's coming my way
All I see are flashing lights
People there in blue suits
Wanna know the real truth
How many did I have tonight?
Looking at the wreckage
Anyone would guess that all inside had died but I'm alive
Wake up in a strange bed
Angels over my head
One of them is shouting clear
Thousand bolts of lightning
Bring me back to life and it's a miracle that I'm still here
As I'm coming to I'm screaming out for you
I need you by my side, oh I'm alive
No I didn't pray to God
No I never saw the light
No I didn't watch my life go flashing right before my eyes
No I didn't do the things that they all said that I would do
I just closed my eyes and all I saw was you
All the things in my head
Everything left unsaid
I never got a second to say
Knew that I adored you
The moment that I saw you
Just terrified you'd push me away
We're all dying slowly
Just want you to hold me
What are we waiting for?
We're alive!
No I didn't pray to God
No I never saw the light
No I didn't watch my life go flashing right before my eyes
No I didn't do the things that they all said that I would do
I just closed my eyes and all I saw was you
If I don't die lying in the rain and I live another day then I run to you
Cause I don't have regrets, just things I'd never say out to you
No I didn't pray to God
No I never saw the light
No I didn't watch my life go flashing right before my eyes
No I didn't do the things that they all said that I would do
We don't have much time,
The lights are on us,
We could lose our minds,
They're all around us.
Run with me, start a revolution,
Come with me through the dark,
As they bring their swords,
We will stand to fall,
As they try to tear us apart.
Run with me, start a revolution,
Come with me through the dark,
As they bring their swords,
We will stand to fall,
As they try to tear us apart.
They shoot to kill,
Let's run until... we're miles away,
The arrows fly,
But you and I... we're miles away,
Out of the line of fire,
We stand with hearts on the wire.
In these blackened skies,
They're building empires,
Taking corners blind,
Turn sparks to ember.
Run with me, start a revolution,
Come with me through the dark,
As they bring their swords,
We will stand to fall,
As they try to tear us apart.
They shoot to kill,
Let's run until... we're miles away,
The arrows fly,
But you and I... we're miles away,
Out of the line of fire,
We stand with hearts on the wire.
As sirens call from the underworld,
As the storm moves in, we must go.
They shoot to kill,
Let's run until... we're miles away.
They shoot to kill,
Let's run until... we're miles away,
The arrows fly,
But you and I... we're miles away,
Out of the line of fire,
I wanna sing the song you wrote for me
We had it on repeat it was golden
But now you're gone
It feels so wrong, the melody
Changed so much since I heard it first,
None of the words belong to me
So I blow out the candle
You're now an old flame
Stuck in a burning room
There's no point in hoping we'll keep on holding
Something that has no use
In a new light
Would it feel like
The first time?
Can we stay, stay, can we stay here golden?
I went to find the heart you held for me
I had to mend the pieces you'd broken
And now you're gone, it feels so wrong
The heartbeat
Changed so much now
It holds it's own, my feelings don't belong to me
So I blow out the candle
You're now an old flame
Caught in the atmosphere
There's no point in hoping we'll keep on holding
Something that is not there
In a new light
Would it feel like
The first time
Can we stay, stay can we stay here golden?
In a new light
Would it feel like
The first time
Can we stay, stay can we stay here golden?
Can we stay, stay can we stay here golden?
Can we stay, stay can we stay here golden?
Can we stay, stay can we stay here golden?
I blow out the candle
You're now an old flame (can we stay, stay, stay here golden?)
Stuck in a burning room
There's no point in hoping we'll keep on holding (can we stay, stay stay here golden?)
At the edge of the road and it won't be long
We're shouting at walls, we're holding on
This house is cold
It's not a home
Can we carry on in this way?
So we strike the match
And the flames will catch.
When there's nothing else left to change
If we speed the fire
Watch it all burn down
Would it be enough?
To turn the ruins into something beautiful
Beautiful
Tell me when did it all go wrong?
I became the villain in your song
When the beauty's lost
And the lines are crossed
Never thought we'd end up this way
So we strike the match
And the flames will catch
When there's nothing else left to say
If we speed the fire
Watch it all burn down
Would it be enough?
To turn the ruins into something beautiful
Beautiful
If we speed the fire
Watch it all burn down
Turn the ruins into something beautiful
Beautiful
If we speed the fire
Watch it all burn down
Would it be enough?
To turn the ruins into something beautiful
I think of you and all you've done
Tell me do you see me or have I gone?
While the whitest eyes are wasting tears
Have you just left me here?
I need to rush, the timing's wrong
But in another year, I could be gone
In another time, in another place
Would I even wake?
You told me to let go
And I had my eyes closed
Why would you wake me
If you're not gonna save me?
You make me want you
And I didn't want to
Why would you wake me
If you're not gonna save me?
I didn't know what you've become
I never thought that I'd see you run
Should have let me sleep
No you didn't need to be waking me
It's chemical, you were never mine
When I needed you, couldn't even fight
In another time, in another place
Would I even wake?
You told me to let go
And I had my eyes closed
Why would you wake me
If you're not gonna save me?
You make me want you
And I didn't want to
Why would you wake me
If you're not gonna save me?
Oh, so just talk to me, talk to me
Oh, the things I hope are never meant to be
Talk to me
Please don't go
You told me to let go
And I had my eyes closed
Why would you wake me
If you're not gonna save me?
You make me want you
And I didn't want to
Why would you wake me
If you're not gonna save me?
If I only could, I'd be running up that hill.
If I only could, I'd be running up that hill.
It doesnt't't hurt me.
Do you want to feel how it feels?
Do you want to know that it doesnt't't hurt me?
Do you want to hear about the deal that Im making?
You, it's you and me.
And if I only could,
Id make a deal with god,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building.
If I only could, oh...
You don't want to hurt me,
But see how deep the bullet lies.
Unaware Im tearing you asunder.
Ooh, there is thunder in our hearts.
Is there so much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You, it's you and me.
Its you and me wont be unhappy.
And if I only could,
Id make a deal with god,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building,
Say, if I only could, oh...
You,
Its you and me,
Its you and me wont be unhappy.
Cmon, baby, cmon darling,
Let me steal this moment from you now.
Cmon, angel, cmon, cmon, darling,
Lets exchange the experience, oh...
And if I only could,
Id make a deal with god,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems.
And if I only could,
Id make a deal with god,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems.
And if I only could,
Id make a deal with god,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems.
If I only could
Be running up that hill
With no problems...
If I only could, I'd be running up that hill.
There's a smoking gun where the sirens end
Hear the battle drums, see the tribes descend
We can stand apart, we can stand together
Can they leave your heart, and take me forever?
While the shrapnel falls, I hear your call
You cry out for me
And I will come, I will run
To be by your side
If the silence wins, I will guide you in
I will be your voice
They can take my soul, be the Hands I Hold
I will sacrifice
And I watched you rise in the dawn of tears
And I saw you fight all my darkest fears
We can win this war if we rage together
I will guard your door, I will stay forever
While the shrapnel falls, I hear your call
You cry out for me
And I will come, I will run
To be by your side
If the silence wins, I will guide you in
I will be your voice
They can take my soul, be the Hands I Hold
I will sacrifice
There's a war outside, one in here too
Well we're done fighting, we only want the truth
There's a war in here, well we'll find peace
Well we're done fighting, we only want relief
[Chorus] x2
While the shrapnel falls, I hear your call
You cry out for me
And I will come, I will run
To be by your side
If the silence wins, I will guide you in
I will be your voice
They can take my soul, be the Hands I Hold
