Lets cut the crap Because I don't wanna sound cliché My head is spinning I've been dreading this day Our time is almost done And I'm not ready to say goodbye The curtain may be closing But you can't stop us tonight We were the outcasts But we never lost our fights We'd live for Saturdays And die for summer nights So scream surrender, We're finished and in flames We'll sing along now Cause we're the ones to blame. Through years of struggle We've had each other's backs We never cared too much For choosing the right path With all that's happened This is gunna be A final tribute To the things that we've all seen We were the outcasts But we never lost our fights We'd live for Saturdays And die for summer nights So scream surrender, We're finished and in flames We'll sing along now Cause we're the ones to blame. We were the outcasts But we never lost our fights We'd live for Saturdays And die for summer nights So scream surrender, We're finished and in flames We'll sing along now Cause we're the ones to blame. We were the outcasts But we never lost our fights We'd live for Saturdays And die for summer nights So scream surrender, We're finished and in flames We'll sing along now Cause we're the ones to blame. We were the outcasts But we never lost our fights (Never lost our fights) We'd live for Saturdays And die for summer nights (And died for summer nights) So scream surrender, We're finished and in flames (Finished and in flames) We'll sing along now Cause we're the ones to blame.

Did you think you'd get this far, only to reach the end of the road With empty pockets and a burning throat? Do you know how much this hurts, I've been let down again and again If I close my eyes, will this end? You'll never know how much this means Spent sixteen years falling on broken knees We don't even know what we're doing to each other Let's take a step back and help up one another Pain and regret are left in the past So get up off the floor, your time is slipping past Why did I believe in my midnight visions? Suffocating in overwhelming contrition When will I receive strength enough to stand? When you tell yourself that you can You were so much to me, now it's just a name I never sleep at night We don't even know what we're doing to each other Let's take a step back and help up one another Pain and regret are left in the past So get up off the floor, your time is slipping past You built this all with the pain of success You took a fall and laid it to rest And as porcelain hearts break, we can see who we are You built this all with the pain of success You took a fall and laid it to rest And as porcelain hearts break, we can see who we are You built this all with the pain of success You took a fall and laid it to rest And as porcelain hearts break, don't you hate who we are? We don't even know what we're doing to each other Let's take a step back and help up one another Pain and regret are left in the past So get up off the floor, your time is slipping past We don't even know what we're doing to each other Let's take a step back and help up one another Pain and regret are left in the past So get up off the floor, your time is slipping past

I won't open my eyes, to watch myself flow with the sea Reflected in their shallow tides, is this what I'm supposed to be? I don't think I'll ever know, what a smile really means But tonight our lives, become the sharpest things Don't let me become Someone I'm not I want to understand, I want to find a better part of me Don't let me fall back into the grave I want to keep this flame, I want to stay the same I hate the look of this world (what am I doing here?) We can shut our eyes (and cut the lies) Take a moment, take a breath (goodnight) Who are you in your mind? (not what you want to find...) Don't let me become Someone I'm not I want to understand, I want to find a better part of me Don't let me fall back into the grave I want to keep this flame, I want to stay the same And it's okay to have a little hate If you know how to use it, don't abuse it And it's okay to feel second rate Just look into my eyes, I know That someday we'll be alright Don't let me become Someone I'm not I want to understand, I want to find a better part of me Don't let me fall back into the grave I want to keep this flame, I want to stay the same Don't let me become Someone I'm not I want to understand, I want to find a better part of me Don't let me fall back into the grave I want to keep this flame, I want to stay the same I want to understand...

And I never knew that it would be this hard I never thought that you could break my heart And there are some things that I don't want you to know When I go to bed at night I feel so alone Darling I can't fix the world, But I'll sing your name And I know someday somebody will take away your pain I know you sit up at night crying all your fears Watching as the shadows call for your tears But I can protect you with a dirty sword and shield Killing all the feelings that you should never feel And darling I can't fix the world, But I'll sing your name And I know someday somebody will take away your pain Not right this second, but can you hold on? I'll hold your hand until my moment's gone And will you give up when the clouds roll in All your sins And will you forget that the past is oh long gone And darling I can't fix the world, But I'll sing your name And I know someday somebody will take away your pain And darling I can't fix the world, But I'll sing your name (I'll sing your name) And I know someday somebody will take away your pain (Take away the pain) Not right this second, but can you hold on? (Can you hold on?) I'll hold your hand until my moment's gone And darling I can't fix the world, But I'll sing your name (I'll sing your name) And I know someday somebody will take away your pain (Take away the pain) Darling I can't fix the world (I can't fix the world) And darling I can't fix the world I can't fix the world...

Time Bomb 04:48
I know you don't want to let go For fear of facing the unknown Your body's shaking, my hands are numb Just stop your faking, and we'll go home Cause you're a time bomb ticking away now How can I de-fuse you? You're on my mind all of my days now Oh yeah You're a time bomb ticking away now How can I refuse you? You're on my mind all of my days now Oh yeah I tried to turn off the dark Replace it with your glowing heart The light is dim now, I cannot see This thing we made, it's not meant to be Cause you're a time bomb ticking away now How can I de-fuse you? You're on my mind all of my days now Oh yeah You're a time bomb ticking away now How can I refuse you? You're on my mind all of my days now Oh yeah Cause you're a time bomb ticking away now How can I de-fuse you? You're on my mind all of my days now Oh yeah You're a time bomb ticking away now How can I refuse you? You're on my mind all of my days now Oh yeah

I feel so lonely, I just want you in my arms tonight I know it's hard right now but everything will be all right I won't let you slip away if you promise me that you'll stay So if you'd listen, well I got something I wanna say So don't you cry out all those tears And don't you go and waste these years I'll be your superhero dressed in black I won't let the ghosts take you back I can take away your pain You just gotta say my name I'm not gonna let you fall I'll be right here through it all So don't give up And don't give in It's not over, can't you see that we are still alive? There's a funny thing about our love- We'll do whatever it takes to survive So bust the locks and tear right through the danger signs Stay strong for me, I couldn't bear to see you flatline So don't you cry out all those tears And don't you go and waste these years I'll be your superhero dressed in black I won't let the ghosts take you back I can take away your pain You just gotta say my name I'm not gonna let you fall I'll be right here through it all So don't give up And don't give in I will protect you So don't you cry out all those tears And don't you go and waste these years I'll be your superhero dressed in black I won't let the ghosts take you back I can take away your pain You just gotta say my name I'm not gonna let you fall I'll be right here through it all So don't give up And don't give in We'll stay strong Together

Violent Eyes 04:28
Followed his car home Knew he was alone Hearing the first gunshots Bleeding all your lies What a sacrifice Look out! Watch them multiply, winning all your fights Not picking all your battles Violence in your eyes, hard to justify Waving your death rattle Said you had to go What I didn't know You would screw me over I know you have your spies Watching me all the time Look out! Watch them multiply, winning all your fights Not picking all your battles Violence in your eyes, hard to justify Waving your death rattle Look out! Watch them multiply, winning all your fights Not picking all your battles Violence in your eyes, hard to justify Waving your death rattle Look out! Watch them multiply, winning all your fights Not picking all your battles Violence in your eyes, hard to justify Waving your death rattle

The Fallout 05:21
As I look around, staring faces Like ghosts they drag me down I hit the ground, there's no escaping Gasping as I feel my body drown They hit my lungs, the words that burn inside of me I'm letting you be free My days are done, my song is sung There's nothing left to see, it's how it has to be And as we fall, will we reach the ground? Thin as air, are we safe now? We're running out of ways to stay alive I can't do this every night So pack your things and go, I'm canceling the show These pastel skies, reflecting all your f*cking lies I'll hide inside my mind I'll break these ties, you fell apart much too long ago Do you even realize? And as we fall, will we reach the ground? Light as air, are we safe now? We're running out of ways to stay alive I can't do this every night So pack your things and go, I'm canceling the show We're running out of ways to stay alive I can't do this every night So pack your things and go, I'm canceling the show We're running out.... Yeah we're running now....
