The battle has just begun! The battle has just begun! Art of war!
Open up your dreams and find a way Awake the morning screaming in your face Feel the poison sweeping through your veins Ill lay you down, Ill lay you down
Chorus: Flowers and cages heaven and earth freedom Flowers and cages avail yourself Seven sins found and no youre not the first Six feet down flowers and cages
Safe in my cocoon beneath the waves A colorful description of your fate I smell the flowers sometimes in the air Ill lay you down, Ill lay you down
-chorus-
The battle has just begun! Art of war! Seize the moment standing in the way The picture doesnt quite fit in the frame Out of turn you speak without a sound Ill lay you down, Ill lay you down
-chorus-
Awake the morning screaming in your face Seize the moment standing in the way I smell the flowers sometimes in the air Art of war!
Now you got it bad, now you got it bad Now you got the Mind Infection Now you got it bad, now you got it bad Now you got the Mind Infection Lately Ive been thinking about stepping up to my infection

A camisole and secrets on your face I finally got to you without a chase You think that we could turn it upside down And be the ones standing out in the crowd
Chorus: Were going in circles Stop if it makes you happy If I lead you follow Even if we take the long way
A shooting star is falling out of space Wishing I could leave without a trace I caught a glimpse of you and watched yopu cry You always cry cause you keep it locked inside Im coming to take you away
-chorus-
Wide-awake no way out We keep spinning around Wide awake no way out, no way out Love did you forget about love Baby it all comes back to love Did you forget about love Maybe I jsut threw it in your face And now its time you put me in my place And now Im running circles in my head I saw you walking out and I saw red Im coming to take you away

Trying hard to be aware when I know the skys falling Terror cried to me shes scared wanna run away but shes stalling And the weather is strange it keeps raining everyday
Chorus: I keep walking away from the place in the cage Where I feel like Im stuck on the same path I followed working hard to try and break the chain Its better to see you, better to see you now I got a feeling nothing will slow you Always afraid Does the pain you kill change the way you feel Always afraid
I ran into a friend today He wanted me to know you were sorry I ddint know what to say I want to hear your side of the story
Burn! Burn you got that, burn burn Oh mother please inform me what keeps tearing you apart Did someone squeeze the life out from you And has father been drinking nightly Did he hurt you with his mouth This time Im gonna make him think again
Chorus: Burn Days and nights take a turn Its taken a lifetime -- Burn Days and nights take a turn Its taken a lifetime
Please let me tell the story they had a falling out This time she heard voices calling as Gasoline fills the bedroom as a father passes out And one match means the nightmares over
-chorus-
She sat down and wrote a letter broken down And in distress she had to make things better So she decided to destroy the family Without a doubt destroy the family, destroy the family!
-chorus-
Burn! Burn you got that, burn burn Oh mother please inform me what keeps tearing you apart Did someone squeeze the life out from you And has father been drinking nightly Did he hurt you with his mouth This time Im gonna make him think again
The corner liquor store is open all night 3 a.m. running out of fucking time Put the straight jacket on keep moving along Four walls, no windows, no fucking cigarettes
Its what you want its what you need Cut you deeper than a razor
Another glorified attempt of suicide Popping pills just to get the shit off your mind Put the straight jacket on and keep moving along No laws, no victims, no fucking safety nets
Chorus: I can feel it coming, Ill never sleep again I can show you something, youll never sleep again
A sweat shop in the basement a silhouette Another sign of a young mind came and went Put the straight jacket on keep moving No flaws, no static, cant fucking pay the rent
-chorus-
I want to show you something I got to show you something youll never sleep again Never sleep again, never sleep again, never sleep again Four walls, no windows, no fucking cigarettes
All these things you mean to me are you ever coming over Through everything and in between Im right there when you need a shoulder I watch you speak the ocean breathes I think of how we both were chosen Dont hold back its what you need We′ll find an answer to the problem
Chorus: I know something′s wrong I made you so mad I′ll break down the walls Just to bring you back -- The Walls
Pained black on the streets They come hidden from the shadows I can see your eyes to me Its got you burning cause you need more
-chorus-
Ooh maybe youll find it again Ooh break the walls and begin Remember we started as friends
