I can′t believe the news today Oh, I can′t close my eyes and make it go away How long, how long must we sing this song? How long, how long? Tonight, we can be as one tonight
Broken bottles under children′s feet And bodies strewn across the dead end street But I won′t heed the battle call It puts my back up Puts my back up against the wall
And the battle′s just begun There′s many lost, but tell me who has won The trench is dug within our hearts And mothers, children, brothers, sisters torn apart
Sunday, bloody Sunday Sunday, bloody Sunday
How long, how long must we sing this song? How long, how long?
And it′s true we are immune When fact is fiction and TV reality And today the millions cry We eat and drink while tomorrow they die, yeah
I wipe the tears from your eyes I wipe your tears away (Tonight, tonight) I wipe your tears away (Tonight, tonight) I wipe your tears away (Tonight, tonight) I wipe your bloodshot eyes (Tonight, tonight)
Sunday, bloody Sunday Sunday, bloody Sunday Sunday, bloody Sunday (The real battle just begun) Sunday, bloody Sunday (To claim the victory Jesus won on...)

They taped over your mouth Scribbled out the truth with their lies You little spies They taped over your mouth Scribbled out the truth with their lies You little spies
Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone Just the one two of us who′s counting on That never happens I guess I′m dreaming again Let′s be more than this
If you want to play it like a game Well, come on, come on, let′s play Cause I′d rather waste my life pretending Than have to forget you for one whole minute
They taped over your mouth Scribbled out the truth with their lies You little spies They taped over your mouth Scribbled out the truth with their lies You little spies
Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone Just the one two of us who′s counting on That never happens I guess I′m dreaming again Let′s be more than this

Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone Just the one two of us who′s counting on That never happens I guess I′m dreaming again Let′s be more than More than this
I′ve hoped for change It gets better everyday I′ve hoped for change But still I feel the same There′s something wrong Cause everybody knows That we can do this all alone
And we got everybody singing Whoawhoa oh whoa whoa oh And we got everybody singing Whoa whoa oh whoa whoa oh
We′re doing fine And it gets better every time We′re doing fine But I′ll let you decide There′s something wrong Cause everybody knows That we can do this all alone

And I′ll confess That I can be a little selfish I can I can Yeah I′ll admit I don′t want you to get me through this I don′t want to start over again
Close your eyes and make believe this is where you wanna be Forgetting all the memories Try to forget love cause love′s forgotten me Well hey hey baby it′s never too late Pretty soon you won′t remember a thing And i′ll be distant as stars reminiscent Your heart′s been wasted on me
You′ve never been so used as i′m using you, abusing you My little decoy Don′t look so blue you should′ve seen right through I′m using you, my little decoy My little decoy
Live your life inside a dream Time is changing everything Forgetting all the memories And i′m forced into you just cause you′re into me Well hey hey baby it′s never too late When I′m gone you won′t remember a thing But i can′t stay and you know i won′t wait I was gone from the very first day
You′ve never been so used as i′m using you, abusing you My little decoy Don′t look so blue you should′ve seen right through I′m using you, my little decoy
Oh oh Oh oh I′m not sorry at all Not sorry at all, not sorry, no I won′t be sorry at all Not sorry at all, not sorry, no I′d do it over again
Don′t look so blue, my little decoy You should′ve seen right through, my little decoy You′ve never been so used, my little decoy As i′m using you, my little decoy
I′m going away for a while But I′ll be back, don′t try and follow me ′Cause I′ll return as soon as possible You see I′m trying to find my place It might not be here where I feel safe We all learn to make mistakes
And run From them, from them With no direction Run from them, from them With no conviction
′Cause I′m just one of those ghosts Travelling endlessly Don′t need no roads In fact they follow me And we just go in circles
But now I′m told that this life And pain is just a simple compromise So we can get what we want out of it
Will someone care to classify A broken heart and twisted minds? So I can find someone to rely on
And run To them, to them Full speed ahead Oh you are not Useless We are just
Misguided ghosts Travelling endlessly The ones we trusted the most Pushed us far away And there′s no one road We should not be the same But I′m just a ghost And still they echo me They echo me in circles
I don′t mean to run. But every time you come around, I feel more alive, than ever. And I guess it′s too much, Maybe we′re too young. And I don′t even know what′s real, But I know I never...
Wanted anything so bad, I′ve never wanted anyone so bad.
If I let you love me, Be the one adored. Would you go all the way, Be the one I′m looking for. If I let you love me (If I Say), Be the one adored (It′s OK). Would you go all the way (You can stay), Be the one I′m looking for.
Help me come back down, From high above the clouds. You know I′m suffocating, But I blame this town, Why do I deny. The things that burn inside, Down deep I′m barely breathing. But you just see a smile.
And I don′t wanna let this go, Really I just want to know.
If I let you love me, Be the one adored. Would you go all the way, Be the one I′m looking for. If I let you love me (If I Say), Be the one adored (It′s OK). Would you go all the way (You can stay), Be the one I′m looking for.
If I let you love me, Be the one adored. Would you go all the way, Be the one I′m looking for (x2).
If I let you love me (If I Say), See the one adored (It′s OK). Would you go all the way (You can stay), Be the one I′m looking for.
Maybe if my heart stops beating It wont hurt this much And never will I have to Answer again to anyone
Please don′t get me wrong Because I′ll never let this go But I can′t find the words to tell you I don′t want to be alone But now I feel like I don′t know you oh
One day you′ll get sick of Saying that everything′s alright And by then I′m sure ill be Pretending just like I am tonight

You say the sweetest things and I Can′t keep my heart from singing along to the sound of your song My stupid feet keep moving to this 4/4 beat, I′m in time with you Whoa, to this 4/4 beat I would die for you (die for you)
(Someone stop this) I′ve gone to far to come back from here, but you don′t have a clue You don′t know what you do to me
Won′t someone stop this song, so I won′t sing along Someone stop this song, so I won′t sing..
I never let love in so I could keep my heart from hurting The longer that I live with this idea, the more I sink into this 4/4 beat I′m in time with you Whoa, to this 4/4 beat I would die for you (stop this song)

Can′t someone stop this song, so I won′t sing along Someone stop this song, so I won′t sing
Your lovesick melody is gonna get the best of me tonight But you won′t get to me if I don′t sing
It creeps in like a spider Can′t be killed, although I try and try to Well, don′t you see I′m falling? Don′t wanna love you, but I do
(Lovesick melody) Can someone stop this song, so I won′t sing along? (Lovesick melody) Can someone stop this song, so I won′t sing? Your lovesick melody is gonna get the best of me tonight But you won′t get to me, no You won′t get to me ′cause I won′t sing
Meet me here beneath the burning skies Where the ocean comes and takes us from all of our lies You never said that you were coming back I have waited although I have found the place you hide What keeps you so far away? We can swim in silence You can pull me under I will not come up for anyone I can slowly sink and Watch you as you leave But I will drown until you care I will drown until you care I imagine what it must be like To have everything you need and not be satisfied Run the water until it burns And you can′t see through the waves that crash into your prey What keeps you so far away? We can swim in silence You can pull me under I will not come up for anyone I can slowly sink and Watch you as you leave But I will drown until you care Going under Getting close to what we cannot recognize Floating face down in the lies Here we are without a trace But the lies we used to blame and you′re so far away What keeps you so far away? We can swim in silence You can pull me under I will not come up for anyone I can slowly sink and Watch you as you leave But I will drown until you care I will drown until you care
She lives in the fairy tale Somewhere too far for us to find Forgotten the taste and smell Of the world that she′s left behind It′s all about the exposure the lens I told her
The angles are all wrong now She′s ripping wings off of butterflies Keep your feet on the ground When your head′s in the clouds
Well go get your shovel And we′ll dig a deep hole To bury the castle, bury the castle Go get your shovel And we′ll dig a deep hole To bury the castle, bury the castle Ba da ba ba da ba ba da
So one day he found her crying Coiled up on the dirty ground Her prince finally came to save her And the rest you can figure out But it was a trick And the clock struck 12
Well make sure to build your home brick by boring brick or the wolf′s gonna blow it down Keep your feet on the ground When your head′s in the clouds
Well go get your shovel And we′ll dig a deep hole To bury the castle, bury the castle Go get your shovel And we′ll dig a deep hole To bury the castle, bury the castle
Well you built up a world of magic Because your real life is tragic Yeah you built up a world of magic
If it′s not real You can′t hold it in your hand You can′t feel it with your heart And I won′t believe it
But if it′s true You can see it with your eyes Or even in the dark And that′s where I want to be, yeah
Go get your shovel And we′ll dig a deep hole To bury the castle, bury the castle Go get your shovel And we′ll dig a deep hole To bury the castle, bury the castle Ba da ba ba da ba ba da...
So this is how it goes Well I, I would have never known And if it ends today Well I′ll still say that you shine brighter Than anyone
Now I think we′re taking this too far Don′t you know that it′s not this hard Well it′s not this hard But if you take what′s yours then I′ll take mine Must we go there Please not this time, no not this time
Well this is not your fault But if I′m without you Then I will feel so small And if you have to go Always know that you shine brighter Than anyone does
Now I think we′re taking this too far Don′t you know that it′s not this hard Well it′s not this hard But if you take what′s yours then I′ll take mine Must we go there Please not this time, no not this time

And when it rains, On this side of town it touches, everything. Just say it again and mean it. We don′t miss a thing. You made yourself a bed At the bottom of the blackest hole (blackest hole) And convinced yourself that It′s not the reason you don′t see the sun anymore [Сhorus:] And oh, oh, how could you do it?

Tell me where our time went And if it was time well spent Just don′t let me fall asleep Feeling empty again
Cuz I fear I might brake And I fear I can′t take it Tonight i′ll lie awake Feeling empty
I can feel the pressure It′s getting closer now We′re better off without you I can feel the pressure It′s getting closer now We′re better off without you
Now that I′m losing hope And there′s nothing else to show For all the days that we spent Carry away from home
Some things I′ll never know And I had to let them go I′m sitting all alone Feeling empty
I can feel the pressure It′s getting closer now We′re better off without you I can feel the pressure It′s getting closer now We′re better off without you Without you
Some things I′ll never know And I had to let them go Some things I′ll never know And I had to let them go But I′m sitting all alone Feeling empty

We still live in the same town, well, don′t we? But I don′t see you around anymore. I go to all the same places, not even a trace of you.. Your days are numbered at 24. And I′m getting bored waiting round for you, We′re not getting any younger, and I Won′t look back ′cause there′s no use It′s time to move forward!
I feel no sympathy, You lived inside a cave! You barely get by the rest of us, You′re trying, there′s no need to apologize, I′ve got no time for feeling sorry!
I tried not to think of what might happen, When your reality, finally, cuts through. Well, as for me, I got out and I′m on the road. The worst part it that this (THIS!), this could be you. You know it too, you can′t run from your shame! You′re not getting any younger, time, Is passing by, but you waited awake.. It′s time to roll over!
I feel no sympathy, You lived inside a cave! You barely get by the rest of us, You′re trying, there′s no need to apologize, I′ve got no time for feeling sorry!
And all the best lies, They are told with fingers tied! So cross them tight, Won′t you promise me tonight If it′s the last thing you do, you′ll get out..
I feel no sympathy, You lived inside a cave. You barely get by the rest of us, You′re trying, there′s no need to apologize, I′ve got no time, I′ve got no time!
I feel no sympathy, You lived inside a cave! You barely get by the rest of us, You′re trying, there′s no need to apologize, Got no time!
I′ve got no time for feeling sorry! I′ve got no time for feeling sorry!
I used to be so quick, so clever I used to know myself much better Anyone can see that this is only permanent Temporary, it never hurts to try
And it′s all a game I know we′ll stay the same But repetition ends in failure And every time I see it in your eyes When repetition ends, we′ll start over
Now I′m a walking contradiction So tell me what′s wrong with this picture Cause anyone can see that this is only permanent Temporary, so don′t hurt me this time
And it′s all a game I know we′ll stay the same But repetition ends in failure And every time I see it in your eyes When repetition ends, we′ll start over
So give it up, just give up Give it up, give up So give it up, just give up Give it up, give up
And it′s all a game I know we′ll stay the same But repetition ends in failure And every time I see it in your eyes When repetition ends, we′ll start over
Oh no I just keep on falling (Back to the same old) Where′s hope when misery comes crawling? (Oh, oh way hey) With your faith you′ll trigger a landslide (Victory) Kill off this common sense of mind
It takes acquired minds to taste, to taste, to taste this wine You can′t down it with your eyes So we don′t need the headlines We don′t need the headlines We just want
Everybody sing Like it′s the last song you will ever sing Tell me tell me do you feel the pressure now?
Everybody live Like it′s the last day you will ever see Tell me tell me do you feel the pressure now?
Right now you′re the only reason (I′m not letting go oh) And time out if everyones worth pleasing (Ah woah oh) You′ll trigger a landslide (Victory) To kill off their finite state of mind
It takes acquired minds to taste, to taste, to taste this wine You can′t down it with your eyes So we don′t need the headlines No we don′t want your headlines We just want
Everybody sing Like it′s the last song you will ever sing Tell me tell me do you feel the pressure now?
Everybody live Like it′s the last day you will ever see Tell me tell me do you feel the pressure now?

Everybody sing Like it′s the last song you will ever sing Tell me tell me can you feel the pressure? Tell me tell me can you feel the pressure?
We were born for this (We were born for this) We were born for this
I′ve settled down A twisted up frown Disguised as a smile Well, you would have never known I had it all, but not what I wanted Cause hope for me was a place uncharted And overgrown
You′d make your way in I′d resist you just like this You can′t tell me to feel The truth never set me free So I did it myself
You can′t be too careful anymore When all that is waiting for you Won′t come any closer You′ve got to reach out a little more More More More More
Open your eyes like I open mine It′s only the real world Life you will never know Shifting your way to throw off the pain Well you can ignore it But only for so long
You look like I did You resist me just like this You can′t tell me to heal And it hurts remembering How it felt to shut down
You can′t be too careful anymore When all that is waiting for you Won′t come any closer You′ve got to reach out a little more More More More More
The truth never set me free (x3) So I′ll do it myself
You can′t be too careful anymore When all that is waiting for you Won′t come any closer You′ve got to reach out You can′t be too careful anymore When all that is waiting for you Won′t come any closer You′ve got to reach out More More More More More
When I was younger I saw my daddy cry And curse at the wind He broke his own heart and I watched as he tried To reassemble it
And my momma swore that she would never let herself forget And that was the day that I promised I′d never sing of love if it does not exist But darling...
You are the only exception You are the only exception You are the only exception You are the only exception
Well maybe I know somewhere deep in my soul That love never lasts And we′ve got to find other ways to make it alone Or keep a straight face
And I′ve always lived like this keeping a comfortable Distance And up until now I swore to myself that I′m content with loneliness Because none of it was ever worth the risk Well...
You are the only exception You are the only exception You are the only exception You are the only exception
I′ve got a tight grip on reality But I can′t let go of what′s part of me here I know you′re leaving in the morning when you wake up Leave me with some kind of proof it′s not a dream
You are the only exception You are the only exception You are the only exception You are the only exception
You are the only exception You are the only exception You are the only exception You are the only exception
And I′m on my way to believing Oh and I′m on my way to believing
Down to you You′re pushing and pulling me down to you But I don′t know what I want Now when I caught myself I had to stop myself I′m saying something that, I should′ve never thought Now when I caught myself I had to stop myself I′m saying something that I should′ve never thought of you,of you
You′re pushing and pulling me down to you But I don′t know what I want No, I don′t know what I want
You got it, you got it Some kind of magic Hypnotic, hypnotic You′re leaving me breathless I hate this, I hate this! You′re not the one I believe in With God as my witness
Now when I caught myself, I had to stop myself I′m saying something that I should′ve never thought Now when I caught myself I had to stop myself I′m saying something that, I should′ve never thought of you,of you
You′re pushing and pulling me down to you But I don′t know what I want No, I don′t know what I want
Don′t know what I want But I know it′s not, you Keep pushing and pulling me down When I know in my heart it′s not you
Now when I caught myself I had to stop myself.... I′m saying something that I should′ve never thought Now when I caught myself I had to stop myself I′m saying something that I should′ve never thought of you! I knew, I know in my heart it′s not you I knew, but now I know what I want! I want! I want! Oh no! I should′ve never thought!
What a shame we all became such fragile, broken things A memory remains just a tiny spark I give it all my oxygen So let the flames begin So let the flames begin
Oh, glory Oh, glory This is our debt when When they try to take us down This is what will be our glory
Somewhere weakness is our strength And I′ll die searching for it I can′t let myself regret such selfishness My pain and all the trouble caused No matter how long I believe that there′s hope Buried beneath it all and Hiding beneath it all, and Growing beneath it all, and...
This is our debt when When they try to take us down This is how we′ll sing it This is how we′ll stand when When they burn our houses down This is what will be our glory
Reaching as I sink down into light Reaching as I sink down into light
This is our debt when When they try to take us down This is how we′ll sing it This is how we′ll stand when When they burn our houses down This is what will be our glory
I scraped my knees while I was praying And found a demon in my, safest haven Seems like it′s getting harder to believe in anything Than just to get lost in all my selfish thoughts
I wanna know what it′d be like To find perfection in my pride To see nothing in the light But turn it off in all my spite, in all my spite I′ll turn it off
And the worst part is, before it gets any better We′re headed for a cliff Then in the freefall I will realize I′m better off when I hit the bottom
The tragedy it seems unending I′m watching everyone I looked up to break and bending We′re taking shortcuts and false illusions Just to come out the hero
Well I can see behind the curtain The wheels are cranking, turning It′s all wrong the way we′re working Towards a goal that′s nonexistent, it′s nonexistent But we just keep believing
And the worst part is, before it gets any better We′re headed for a cliff Then in the freefall I will realize I′m better off when I hit the bottom
I wanna know what it′d be like To find perfection in my pride To see nothing in the light But turn it off in all my spite, in all my spite I′ll turn it off Just turn it off
Again Again, again
And the worst part is, before it gets any better We′re headed for a cliff Then in the freefall I will realize I′m better off when I hit the bottom
And the worst part is, before it gets any better We′re headed for a cliff Then in the freefall I will realize I′m better off when I hit the bottom
I think we have an emergency I think we have an emergency If you thought I′d leave then you were wrong Because I won′t stop holding on
So are you listening? So are you watching me? If you thought I′d leave then you were wrong Because I won′t stop holding on

It′s really not your fault And no one cares to talk about it To talk about it
Cause′ I′ve seen love die way too many times When it deserved to be alive (When it deserved to be alive) I′ve seen you cry way too many times When you deserved to be alive Alive...
So you give up every chance you get Just to feel new again
I think we have an emergency I think we have an emergency And you do your best to show me love But you don′t know what love is
So are you listening? So are you watching me? Well I can′t pretend that I don′t see this
It′s really not your fault And no one cares to talk about it To talk about it
Cause′ I′ve seen love die way too many times When it deserved to be alive (When it deserved to be alive) I′ve seen you cry way too many times When you deserved to be alive Alive...
(The scars they will not fade away)
And no one cares to talk about it To talk about it Cause′ I′ve seen love die way too many times When it deserved to be alive (When it dserved to be alive) I′ve seen you cry way too many times When you deserved to be alive Alive... (Alive...)
How can I decide what’s right When you’re clouding up my mind? I can’t win You’re losing sight All the time
Not gonna ever own what’s mine When you’re always taking sides But you won’t take away my pride No, not this time Not this time
How did we get here? I used to know you so well How did we get here? Well, I think I know
The truth is hiding in your eyes And it’s hanging on your tongue Just boiling in my blood But you think that I can’t see What kind of man that you are If you’re a man at all Well, I will figure this one out On my own (I’m screaming, “I love you so”) On my own (My thoughts you can’t decode)
How did we get here? I used to know you so well, yeah How did we get here? Well, I think I know

There is something I see in you It might kill me I want it to be true
Can′t make my own decisions Or make any with precision Well maybe you should tie me up So I don′t go where you don′t want me
You say that I′ve been changing That I′m not just simply aging Yeah how could that be logical? Just keep on cramming ideas down my throat
You don′t have to believe me But the way I, way I see it Next time you point a finger I might have to bend it back Or break it, break it off Next time you point a finger I′ll point you to the mirror
If God′s the game you′re playing Well we must get more acquainted Because it has to be so lonely To be the only one who′s holy
It′s just my humble opinion But it′s one that I believe in You don′t deserve a point of view If the only thing you see is you
You don′t have to believe me But the way I, way I see it Next time you point a finger I might have to bend it back Or break it, break it off Next time you point a finger I′ll point you to the mirror
This is the last second chance I′ll point you to the mirror I′m half as good as it gets I′ll point you to the mirror I′m on both sides of the fence I′ll point you to the mirror Without a hint of regret I′ll hold you to it
I know you don′t believe me But the way I, way I see it Next time you point a finger I might have to bend it back Or break it, break it off Next time you point a finger I′ll point you to the mirror
I know you won′t believe me But the way I, way I see it Next time you point a finger I might have to bend it back Or break it, break it off Next time you point a finger I′ll point you to the mirror
I′m sitting in a room Made up of only big white walls and indoor halls There′s people looking through The window though they know exactly what we′re here for
Don′t look up Just let them think There′s no place else You′d rather be
You′re always on display For everyone to watch and learn from Don′t you know by now You can′t turn back Because this road is all you′ll ever have
And it′s obvious that you′re dying, dying Just living proof that the camera′s lying And open wide, ′cause this is your night So smile, ′cause you′ll go out in style You′ll go out in style
If you let me I could I′d show you how to build your fences Set restrictions, separate from the world Because the ground that you hate to fight Just blame the limelight
Don′t look up Just let them think There′s no place else You′d rather be
And now you can′t turn back Because this road is all you′ll ever have
And it′s obvious that you′re dying, dying Just living proof that the camera′s lying And open wide, ′cause this is your night So smile.
Yeah, yeah you′re asking for it With every breath that you breathe in Just breathe it in Yeah, yeah well you′re just a mess You do all this, big talk, yeah.. So now let′s see you walk it I said let′s see you walk it
Yeah, yeah well you′re just a mess You do all this, big talk, yeah So now let′s see you walk it I said let′s see you walk it
And it′s obvious that you′re dying, dying Just living proof that the camera′s lying And oh oh open wide, yeah oh oh open wide Yeah, oh oh open wide ′Cause you′ll go out in style You′ll go out in style
When we get home I know we wont be home at all This place we live It is not where we belong And I miss who we were And the town we could call our own Going back to get away after everything has changed Everything has changed
So we stand here now And no one knows us at all Iwont get used to this I wont get used to being gone And going back wont feel the same if we arent staying And going back to get away after everything has changed Everything has changed
It′s taking up our time again Go back we cant, go back at all It′s taking up our time again go back we cant, go back at all
It′s taking up our time
Cause you remind me of a time When we were so alive Do you remember that? Do you remember that?
I′m in the business of misery, Let′s take it from the top She′s got a body like an hourglass It′s tickin′ like a clock It′s a matter of time Before we all run out... When I thought he was mine, She caught him by the mouth I waited eight long months, She finally set him free I told him I couldn′t lie, He was the only one for me Two weeks and we′d caught on fire She′s got it out for me, But I wear the biggest smile
Whoa... I never meant to brag But I got him where I want him now Whoa... it was never my intention to brag To steal it all away from you now But God does it feels so good ′Cause I got him where I want him now And if you could then You know you would ′Cause God it just feels so... It just feels so good
Second chances they don′t ever matter, People never change Once a whore, you′re nothing more, I′m sorry that′ll never change And about forgiveness, We′re both supposed to have exchanged I′m sorry honey, but I passed up, Now look this way!
There′s a million other girls Who do it just like you Looking as innocent as possible To get to who they want and what they like, It′s "easy if you do it right" Well I refuse, I refuse, I refuse!
Whoa... I never meant to brag But I got him where I want him now Whoa... it was never my intention to brag To steal it all away from you now But God does it feel so good ′Cause I got him where I want him right now And if you could then You know you would ′Cause God it just feels so... It just feels so good...
I watched His wildest dreams come true Not one of them involving you Just watch My wildest dreams come true Not one of them involving...
Whoa, I never meant to brag But I got him where I want him now...
Whoa, I never meant to brag But I got him where I want him now Whoa... it was never my intention to brag To steal it all away from you now But God does it feels so good ′Cause I got him where I want him now And if you could then You know you would ′Cause God it just feels so... It just feels so good
I heard you driving in my car Then in a frozen bar And I claimed I didn′t care for you But your verse got trapped inside my head Over and over again You played yourself to death in me
I thought I′d drop you easily But that was not to be You burrowed like a summer tic So you invade my sleep and confuse my dreams Turn my nights to sleepless itch
Stuck on you ′till the end of time I′m too tired to fight your rhyme Stuck on you ′till the end of time you′ve got me paralyzed
Holding on the telephone I hear your midrange moan You′re everywhere inside my room Even when I′m alone I hear your mellow drone You′re everywhere inside of me
Stuck on you ′till the end of time I′m too tired to fight your rhyme Stuck on you ′till the end of time You got me trapped inside
I can′t escape your incessant whine When you beam it out all across the sky No I can′t escape (stuck on you ′till the end of time) your insipid rhyme (I′m too tired to fight your rhyme) When you shoot it deep (stuck on you ′till the end of time) Straight into my mind
Hello, hello? Is anyone home? Hello, hello? Just pick up the phone
I opened up my life to you, I told you everything I knew, You listened so closely to, You listened so close when love was just a way out But you′re going deaf now, Yeah you turned your head around,
Hello, hello? Is anyone home? Hello, hello? Just pick up the phone, You′ll be sorry to hear, I′m doing fine now, Sorry to hear, You′re without me now
You blew up the world I built for us, Destroyed our secret universe, Threw out the trust I, put in you, Making me feel like I′d been used, And now I′m reminded, That I was just blinded,
Hello, hello? Is anyone home? Hello, hello? Just pick up the phone, You′ll be sorry to hear, I′m doing fine now, Sorry to hear, You′re without me now
I′m doing fine, You′ll be alright, Maybe you′ll think of me tonight, You′re doing fine, And I′ll be alright, Just give me time, yeah
Hello, hello? Is anyone home? Hello, hello? Just pick up the phone, I don′t wanna hear, You′re doing fine now, Don′t wanna hear, I′m without you now
These fears come rushing in when I enter here Another layer on my back A blazing fire where our glances meet The largest feeling towering over me
Faces in disguise Not a trace of desire
I long to take you to a secret place Where we could lay aside our past We′d throw the world away with all it′s pain To shine like stars through storm and clouds and rain
Faces in disguise Not a trace of desire (cold faces in disguise) (not a trace of desire)
Go face the day Go and see new things Go face the day But you′ll remember me...
I see a tear inside when you′re turned away Another wound that I′d take back If I could fill your heart just once and then I′d take you now where we could live again
Faces in disguise Not a trace of desire (cold faces in disguise) (not a trace of desire)
Go face the day Go and see new things Go face the day But you′ll remember me...
Faces in disguise Not a trace of desire (cold faces in disguise) (not a trace of desire)
I am finding out that maybe I was wrong That I′ve fallen down and I cant do this alone Stay with me This is what I need please
Sing us a song And we′ll sing it back to you We could sing our own But what would it be without you
I am nothing now And it′s been so long Since I′ve heard a sound The sound of my only hope This time I will be listening
Sing us a song And we′ll sing it back to you We could sing our own But what would it be without you
This heart, it beats Beats for only you My heart is yours (My heart , it beats for you) This heart, it beats beats for only you My heart is yours (Please don′t go now, please don′t fade away)
I am outside And I′ve been waiting for the sun With my wide eyes I′ve seen worlds that don′t belong My mouth is dry with words I cannot verbalize Tell me why we live like this
Keep me safe inside Your arms like towers Tower over me
Yeah Cause we are broken What must we do to restore Our innocence And oh, the promise we adored Give us life again cause we just wanna be whole
Lock the doors Cause I like to capture this voice it came to me tonight So everyone will have a choice And under red lights I′ll show myself it wasn′t forged We′re at war We live like this
Keep me safe inside Your arms like towers Tower over me
Cause we are broken What must we do to restore Our innocence And oh, the promise we adored Give us life again cause we just wanna be whole
Tower over me Tower over me
And I′ll take the truth at any cost
Cause we are broken What must we do to restore Our innocence And oh, the promise we adored Give us life again cause we just wanna be whole
Things are looking up, oh finally I thought I′d never see the day when you smile at me
We always pull through Oh when we try I′m always wrong but you′re never right You′re never right!
Honestly, can you believe we crossed the world while it′s asleep? I′d never trade it in ′Cause I′ve always wanted this And it′s not a dream anymore No, it′s not a dream anymore It’s worth fighting for
Could have given up so easily I was a few cheap shots away from the end of me
Taken for granted Almost everything That I would have died for just yesterday, Just yesterday
Honestly, can you believe we crossed the world while it′s asleep? I′d never trade it in ′Cause I′ve always wanted this And it′s not a dream anymore No, it′s not a dream anymore It’s worth fighting for
God knows the world doesn’t need another band Whoa, oh oh oh, whoa, oh oh oh But what a waste it would’ve been Whoa, oh oh oh, whoa, oh oh oh I can′t believe we almost hung it up Whoa, oh oh oh, whoa, oh oh oh We′re just getting started Whoa, oh oh oh, whoa, oh oh oh
Honestly, can you believe we crossed the world while it′s asleep? I′d never trade it in ′Cause I′ve always wanted this And it′s not a dream anymore No, it′s not a dream anymore No, it′s not a dream anymore No, it′s not a dream anymore No, it′s not a dream anymore It’s worth fighting for

And if you listen to me: I miss you And if you hear me now: I need you Where did you go cause you′re not gone Everyone knows that something is wrong The wires were cut and I′m alone
I know we′re getting closer I know you′re coming back for me this time This time
And do you ever want me? Do you ever need me? I know that you left before goodbye And it′s okay, there′s always another day And any time you want me Any time you see me I don′t think you meant to say goodbye But it′s okay, there′s always another day
Your voice comes in and now it′s fading I can′t believe this, is so frustrating Cause you never seems to understand And you let me slip straight through your hands And how does it feel to be alone?
I know we′re getting closer I know you′re coming back for me this time This time
And do you ever want me? Do you ever need me? Ii know that you left before goodbye And it′s okay, there′s always another day And any time you want me Any time you see me I don′t think you meant to say goodbye And it′s okay, there′s always another day
If you ever find what you were looking for I will be waiting there, I will be there
And do you ever want me? Do you ever need me? I know that you left before goodbye And it′s okay, there′s always another day And any time you want me Any time you see me I don′t think you meant to say goodbye But it′s okay, there′s always another day
Don′t come looking for me ′Cause I′ll be right here with the words you said I′m looking for the words that you say you know what you did you know How can anybody forget the promise that you made? And this is how a promise breaks I always knew you′d fall through And now you′re proof
Rewind to the first time That I felt it coming I knew it would not last Rewind to the first time that I felt it coming Make it quick, make it painless Don′t tell me lies just say goodbye
Don′t come looking for me ′Cause I′ll be right here with the words you said I′m looking for the words that you say you know what you did you know How can anybody forget the promise that you made? And this is how a promise breaks I always knew you′d fall through And now you′re proof
Rewind to the first time that I felt it coming I knew it would not last Rewind to the first time that I felt it coming Make it quick, make it painless Don′t tell me lies just say goodbye
(Please don′t say too much oh, I think I′ve heard enough from you, Oh)

Rewind to the first time that I felt it coming I knew it would not last Rewind to the first time that I felt it coming Make it quick, make it painless Don′t tell me lies just say goodbye Don′t tell me lies just say goodbye
If I′m a bad person, you don′t like me I guess I′ll go, make my own way It′s a circle I mean cycle I can′t excite you anymore Where′s your gavel? Your jury? What′s my offense this time? You′re not a judge but if you′re gonna judge me Well sentence me to another life.
Don′t wanna hear your sad songs I don′t wanna feel your pain When you swear it′s all my fault Cause you know we′re not the same Oh we′re not the same The friends who stuck together We wrote our names in blood But I guess you can′t accept that the change is good It′s good
You treat me just like another stranger Well it′s nice to meet you sir I guess I′ll go I best be on my way out
Ignorance is your new best friend
This is the best thing that could′ve happened Any longer and I wouldn′t have made it It′s not a war no, It′s not a rapture I′m just a person but you can′t take it The same tricks that once fooled me They won′t get you anywhere I′m not the same kid from your memory Now I can fend for myself
Don′t wanna hear your sad songs I don′t wanna feel your pain When you swear it′s all my fault Cause you know we′re not the same Oh we′re not the same We used to stick together We wrote our names in blood But I guess you can′t accept that the change is good It′s good
You treat me just like another stranger Well it′s nice to meet you sir I guess I′ll go I best be on my way out
Ignorance is your new best friend
You treat me just like another stranger Well it′s nice to meet you sir I guess I′ll go I best be on my way out
Think of me When you′re out, when you′re out there I′ll beg you nice from my knees And when the world treats you way too fairly Well, it′s a shame I′m a dream All I wanted was you All I wanted was you
I think ill pace my apartment a few times And fall asleep on the couch And wake up early to black and white reruns That escape from my mouth (oh oh) All I wanted was you All I wanted was you All I wanted was you All I wanted was you
I could follow you to the beginning Just to relive the start Maybe then we′d remember to slow down All of our favorite parts All I wanted was you All I wanted was you All I wanted was you All I wanted was you All I wanted was you
