'll take a lifetime to make these thoughts turn into words
They'll form then they'll watch you recede because they'll never be heard
Behind those barricade eyes, destruction rules in her mind
We think in life but only live in moments so let's stop thinking tonight
Well, I'm in a war with awkward silence
I lost my mind in your bloodshot eyes
You're really hot when you're so defiant
Without a chaser we would chase away the night
We're gonna drive around this small town
Just wanna find out what you think of me
You make me crazy when you let your hair down
We're falling over and it's getting hard to breathe…
It's getting hard to fucking breathe!
We are the ones, we are the ones
We're gonna live now while we can
We're holding on, We're holding on
Let's make an exit, not an end of hope and we're all a disaster
The best damn nights that we still can't remember
Tonight you're not in love with me
You're in love with the party scene
You're walking into my room like you own the place
You found the attitude but I can't find the things to say
To say to you...
And now she's taking her clothes off
I got a feeling they're bogus
Oh my God
It's crazy, we're never gonna sleep
We are the ones, we are the ones
We're gonna live now while we can
We're holding on, We're holding on
Let's make an exit, not an end of hope and we're all a disaster
The best damn nights that we still can't remember
The summer comes and we'll think of it after
How you almost made it; you almost asked her
Tonight you're not in love with me
You're in love with the party scene
I'll take a lifetime to make these thoughts turn into words
They'll form then they'll watch you recede because they'll never be heard
Behind those barricade eyes, destruction rules in her mind
We think in life but only live in moments so let's stop thinking tonight

She said come take me away
Help me stop counting my days
You can be my empty…
Too late, once again,
I let you go because I was afraid of the unknown
Jealousy living in our skin
Disregarding our better thinking
Let's drink to a life that's more than breathing
Toast to a night that soon is giving up on this
I'm choking on these premeditated words
This is the end of feeling real
We all have scars that never heal
Just swear this night will last forever
And I swear I'll never go
Summer's fading to fall
Please believe that we're all just wasting time
Quick, this night's almost gone
Help me take what was wrong and make it right
We're all just remnants of the past
Lost in what could have been or what's become
Let go of what you used to have
And make this life be worth your fucking time
Just looking back on all these years
One too many nights succumb to fear
Summer's fading to fall
Please believe that we're all just wasting time
Quick, this night's almost gone
Help me take what was wrong and make it right
And make it right
I had a dream last night
We took our chances in disguise
Nothing can touch us
When we're living in tonight
Let your waves crash over me
And take me back in time
To a place where you still had
That crazy look in your eyes
And I hate pictures because they remind me
Of what we used to have
Tell me that this night will last forever
Always being crushed beneath the pressure
Let go of the past
Tell me that this night will last forever
Always being crushed beneath the pressure
Of this empty world
Finally found an exit to my endeavor
Don't ever let this fire turn to an ember
Let go of the past
And make it right

Let's take it back
To the day when we first met
You were so young and self-destructive
And so beautiful
Our stories one in the same
You'll be forgetting my name
Cause this is goodbye
It's everything we could've done
And everything we could have
We couldn't wait to get outside
The world was staring in
Please don't fall asleep on me
Just wait the whole damn night
These hospital beds lay empty
And the window is letting in a breeze
We're running away we're running away
We're gonna burn this town tonight
Everyday I've been missing something
Ever since you left me on this earth
He threw you away, he threw you away
We're gonna burn this city tonight
My love, my life, my home
Taken violently by a cannibal animal you!
Motherfuckers count your blessings today
You took a beautiful life and theres a price to pay
We are just a cursed society living in jars
You showed me your scars now can we make them ours?
I saw a smile turn to life; this girl she needs a nurse
If none of us had wound up here we'd meet up in the hearse
I'm never playing rummy again
These scars hold buried memories
These buried memories
They're here
Together we will die alone in here
These hospital beds lay empty
And the window is letting in a breeze
We're running away we're running away
We're gonna burn this town tonight
Everyday I've been missing something
Ever since you left me on this earth
He threw you away but now I'll have revenge
Burke:
She breathed her hope into my lungs
Something that was never there before
You lack the right to take it all away
This is not your life

It's For The Best

Why would I recognize anything other than
what's been standing in front of me?
It's been this way every night so far
So try stop me, try to stop me
It's hard to pretend that I have all of the answers
To all of the questions
Even the most sincerity is unreal to me
I couldn't let myself down
You are my reason for getting out there
The reason I'm who I am
Every year I've waited for things to fall in line
For the first time I've always understood
How you became my inspiration
For giving all I have to you
I'm ready for this life just us two
This is everything that I have ever meant to let go
I'm not listening so just try to stop me
So stand your ground because we both know
That you can hear me, I'm trying to show
This is being done with no help from anyone
Forget it all for now and let it come undone
You are my reason for getting out there
The reason I'm who I am
Every year I've waited for things to fall in line
For the first time I've always understood
How you became my inspiration
For giving all I have to you
I'm ready for this life just us two
Everything we have
Well it's got nothing to do with them
And everything we stood for
Well it's a fight that we'll have to make
Everybody knows,
everybody tries to get it right, to get it right

Let's go!
Lately I've been dodging the mirrors
And seeking affection
The war in my mind becomes exposed with reflection
Everyday we wish to be someone else
Cause we don't even know who we are
Is it worth it to just live
When every force is against you?
Breathe? In every soul there's a flame
Live! With everything that you've been through
Breathe cause we all have a damaged brain
One day you'll see when it's all been said and done
That tragedy will run like water but benumb like wine
eighteen years from now, I'm sure we'll all be fine
Let it out, let it out of my mind
Corruptive thoughts create a wasteland of sin inside
This body's going straight to hell
You think you know me punk?
Well I don't even know myself
They'll try to make you believe
In every lie that they speak
Scream these words if you're with me:
We'll bring this place to the ground
You're an example of a man I'll never turn into
I'd like to thank you because you taught me how to
Live: When every force is against me
Breathe: In hope that "someday" will come here soon
One day you'll see when it's all been said and done
That tragedy will run like water but benumb like wine
eighteen years from now, I'm sure we'll all be fine
Let it out, let it out of my mind
Corruptive thoughts create a wasteland of sin inside
This body's going straight to hell
You think you know me punk?
Well I don't even know myself
Let me get a fucking guitar!
Oh! Secluded version of normal
Does anybody else feel the same?
I've put up with too much
So if you've had enough,
We'll bring this place to the ground
Interlude:
They say it's rather cold this year
It's killing me to see you this way my dear
I hope to God you forget what's been said
You'll never know what it meant
It only hurts to dwell
She felt so alone
No one heard something horrible
Just as the air got cold
Please forget why you stayed
Leave this God awful place
Here's to better days
Why can't you see the beauty through the trees?
That's rhetoric, it makes perfect sense to me
Insanity on earth; you found your peace in the clouds
All of this thinking has rendered me alone:
Alone In The Crowd

Thought You Should Know

From stolen, concrete walls
To your necklace
Suspending me in air
I loved you like cancer
Your heart turned to gold
Years of staring at pictures
That help get me home
Trapped deep in this beating hole
My love for you remains
Inspiration takes its tole
Disguised as jealousy
She's got this!
Everybody knows, everybody knows what she's become
Her eyes are open but her mind is going numb
She begs this night to just end as he's about to begin
Indecision to ask for one more chance
To make things right; to make them last
I've never been alright outside your hands
Life's not worth regrets, let's make amends
I loved you like cancer
Your heart turned to gold
Years of staring at pictures
That help get me home
Trapped deep in this beating hole
My love for you remains
Inspiration takes its tole
Disguised as jealousy
I'd help her but...
She's got this!
Everybody knows, everybody knows what she's become
Her eyes are open but her mind is going numb
She begs this night to just end as he's about to begin
Indecision to ask for one more chance
To make things right; to make them last
I've never been alright outside your hands
Life's not worth regrets, let's make amends
I can see your face in every single fire
Watch them burn these memories
As they toss their pennies
Pretty little eyes, wearing such a good disguise
Looking up at dollar signs
I'm not the only one who's dying inside
We will walk this earth with one fucking goal:
To find someone who treats me like I treated…
You
Like a magnet pull me closer to you
Like a drug we're all addicted to the same old shit
Darling this is such an awful mess we've made
And I can't seem to find the words to say
Somehow the world is so bizarre
Who knew this all would be so hard?
