'Adore'

"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've 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,See the one adored.Would you go all the way?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 want to 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,See the one adored.Would you go all the way?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.

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,See the one adored.Would you go all the way?Be the one I'm looking for."

'Another Day'

"And if you're listening, I miss you.And if you hear me now, I need you.Where did you go, 'cause you're not gone.Everyone knows there's something's wrong.The wires are 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.It's okay, there's always another day.

And anytime you want me, anytime you see meI don't think you meant to say goodbyeBut 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 seem to understandAnd you let me slip straight through your handsHow 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?I know that you left before goodbye.And it's okay, there's always another day.

And anytime you want me, anytime you see meI don't think you meant to say goodbye.But 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 anytime you want me, anytime you see meI don't think you meant to say goodbye.But it's okay, there's always another day."

'Breathe'  

"I Climb, I Slip, I FallReaching for your hands But I lay here all aloneSweating all your bloodIf I could find out howTo make you listen now Because I'm starving for you hereWith my undying love and II will

Breathe for love tomorrowCause there's no hope for today

I Climb, I Slip, I FallReaching for your handsBut I Lay Here All aloneSweating all your bloodIf I could find out howTo make you listen nowBecause I'm starving for you hereWith my undying love and II Will

Breathe for love tomorrowCause theres no hope for today

Breathe for love tomorrowCause maybe theres another way

Breathe for love tomorrowCause theres no hope for today

Breathe for love tomorrowCause maybe theres another way

I Climb, I Slip, I FallInto Your Empty handsBut I Lay Here All aloneSweating all your blood"

'This Circle'

"Take this time to realise
That you always shut your eyes
In the midst of trial
And everything is always right
And I think that it's time
This battle must be won
But you pushed it aside
Pushed it aside
Pretend that it's gone

This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over
This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over

Take this time to realise
That you always force a smile
In the midst of trial
And I think that it's time
This battle must be won
But you pushed it aside
Pushed it aside
Pretend that it's gone

This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over
This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over

And it never ends
It never ends
And it never ends
No, it never ends

This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over

This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over"

 'Just Like Me'

"I slipped down the stairs,Tripped over your fragile ego,I slid down the hallway,Right into the web you'd woven,

And you never said,That you meant to save someone,Somebody just like me,And you never told me,You wanted to love someone,Somebody just like me

You locked all the doors,You felt it was safer that way,You put up a wall,And now your whole world is caving in

And you never said,That you meant to save someone,Somebody just like me,And you never told me,You wanted to love someone,Somebody just like me

You swallow your pride as,You left behind,Counting stars to name your lies,You let the rain,Push you away,And now you're drowning in the waves

Yeah,And you never said,That you meant to save someone,Somebody just like me,And you never told me,You wanted to love someone,Somebody just like me

And you never told me,You wanted to love someone,Somebody just like,Somebody just like me,And you never said,That you meant to save someone,Like meSomebody just like me"

'Number One' 

"You're my number oneYou're my golden starI look at earth from hereStill you don't seem so far

But you will never know(you will never know)Oh you will never know

Oh oh oh oh oooh oh oh Oh I will never admit that IOh oh oh oh oooh oh ohOh I will never admit that IOh oh oh oh oooh oh ohOh I will never admit that IOh oh oh oh oooh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oooh oh oh Oh I will never admit that IOh oh oh oh oooh oh ohOh I will never admit that IOh oh oh oh oooh oh ohOh I will never admit that IOh oh oh oh oooh oh oh

'Rewind'

Don't come looking for me'Cause I'll be right hereWith the words you saidI'm looking for the words to say
You know what you did, you knowHow can anybody forgetThe promise that you made?
'Cause this is how the promise breaksI always knew you'd fall throughAnd now you're proof
Rewind to the first timeAnd I felt it comingI knew it would not lastRewind to the first timeAnd I felt it coming
Make it quickMake it painlessDon't tell me liesJust say goodbye
And now you're running from meSo cool, so scared of what you might have saidAnd no one's ever looked away'Cause we know what you did, we know
If I told anybodyThen we would soon forget your nameAnd you would never have a placeI always knew you'd fall throughAnd now you're proof
Rewind to the first timeAnd I felt it comingI knew it would not lastRewind to the first timeAnd I felt it coming
Make it quickMake it painlessDon't tell me liesJust say goodbye
Please don't say too muchOh, I think we've heard enough from you
Rewind to the first timeAnd I felt it comingI knew it would not lastRewind to the first timeAnd I felt it coming
Make it quickMake it painlessDon't tell me liesJust say goodbye
Don't tell me liesJust say goodbye"

'Stay Away'

"Your lies are bleeding through your teeth
Your eyes the only ones failing me
Your promises never really meant a thing
But they flowed from your lips so easily

Stay, stay, stay, stay, stay away from me
Stay, stay, stay, stay away
Stay, stay, stay, stay away from me
Stay, stay, stay, stay away, away 

It's my best at your heart
The glass that rips your word apart
Is it the guilt that keeps you up at night when your in bed?
Well you can sleep sound honey, I'll return to attack

Stay, stay, stay, stay, stay away from me
Stay, stay, stay, stay away
Stay, stay, stay, stay away from me
Stay, stay, stay, stay away, away 

I never was too good with goodbyes
You made it easy when your greed presided
With all the evil that you've provided
You still put the "good" in "goodbye"
In goodbye, in goodbye

Stay away, stay, stay, stay away from me
Stay, stay, stay, stay, stay away from me
Stay, stay, stay, stay away from me
Stay, stay, stay, stay, stay away from me" 

'Swim In Silence'

"Meet me here beneath the burning sky
Where the ocean comes and takes us from all our lives
Never said that you were coming back
I have waited all the while and 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 could slowly sink in
Watch you as you leave
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 (satisfied)
Run the water till it burns
And you can’t see through the waves
That crash into your pride
What keeps you so far away?

We can swim in silence
You can pull me under
I will not come up for anyone
I could slowly sink in
Watch you as you leave
I will drown until you care

(Going under, going under)
Cut it close
To what we cannot recognize
Floating face down in the lies
Here we are without a trace
Of 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 could slowly sink in Watch you as you leave
I will drown until you care

We can swim in silence
You can pull me under
I will not come up for anyone

We can swim in silence
You can pull me under
I will not come up for anyone
I will drown until you care"

'Temporary'

"I used to be so quick, so clever
I used to know myself much better
'Cause 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
We'll start over"

'Throwing Punches'

"There’s an empty room at the end of the hall
And it’s begging to swallow you whole
Each step you take
Makes it easier for you to fall on your face
Each tear you fake
Makes it easier to see straight through you now

And you’re so hateful sometimes
Throwing punches at lies
Fall from somewhere above
Just to say you’re in love

So you hang yourself from stolen dreams
And under the table you hide every stain
Each step you take (getting closer)
Makes it easier to fall on your face
Each death you fake (getting closer)
Makes it easier to live this way
And now

And you’re so hateful sometimes
Throwing punches at lies
Fall from somewhere above
Just to say you’re in love

Watch it disappear
The dream you hold so dear
Let it fade (let it fade)
Let it fade (let it fade)
Let it fade (let it fade) now

And you’re so hateful sometimes
Throwing punches at lies
Fall from somewhere above
Just to say you’re in love
Just to say you’re in love" 

'All We Know Is Falling'

'All We Know' screamo intro (live performances only)

"This time we're not giving up
This time we're not backing down
This time we're not giving up
This time we're not backing down
Nothing will take on a miracle
Nothing will take on a miracle"

'All We Know'

"We've tried so hard to understand, but we can't.We held the world out in our hands and you ran away.
It takes some time to let you go and it shows.

'Cause all we know is falling, it falls.Remember, 'cause I know that we won't forget at all.

Now we can follow you back home but we won't.Is this what you had waited for? Just to be alone?
It takes some time to let you go and it shows.

'Cause all we know is falling, it falls.Remember, 'cause I know that we won't forget at all.

You never, you never saidThis wasn't what you wanted, was it? Was it?
This isn't what you wanted.This isn't what you wanted.

'Cause all we know is falling, it falls.Remember, 'cause I know that we won't forget at all"

'Pressure' intro (live performances only)

"Starting all overStarting all overGiving it up againGiving it up again"

'Pressure' 

"Tell me where our time went
And if it was time well spent
Just don't let me fall asleep
Feeling empty again

'Cause I fear I might break
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 of the days that were spent
Carried away from hope
Somethings 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

Somethings I'll never know
And I had to let them go
Somethings I'll never know
And I had to let them go
But I'm sitting all alone
Feeling empty

I can feel the pressure
It's getting closer now
We're better off without you
It's getting closer now
You're better off without me"

'Emergency'

"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 breathe then you were wrong
Because I won't stop holding on

This is an emergency
So are you listening?
And 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...

So 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
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
I've seen you cry way too many times 
When you deserved to be alive
Alive...
Alive..."

Now I think we're taking this too farDon't you know that it's not this hard?Well it's not this hardBut if you take what's yours and I take mineMust we go there?Please not this time. No, not this time.

And never will I have to
Answer again to anyone

"When we get home i know we wont be home at allThis place we liveIt is not where we belongAnd I miss who we wereAnd the town we could call our ownGoing back to get away after everything has changed

'For a Pessimist, I'm Pretty Optimistic'

"Just talk yourself up
And tear yourself down
You've hit your one wall
Now find a way around
Well what's the problem?
You've got a lot of nerve

So what did you think I would say?
No you can't run away, no you can't run away
So what did you think I would say?
No you can't run away, no you can't run away
You wouldn't

I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away
You threw it away

I'm not so naive
My sorry eyes can see
The way you fight shy
Of almost everything
Well, if you give up
You'll get what you deserve

So what'd you think I would say?
No you can't run away, no you can't run away
So what did you think I would say?
No you can't run away, no you can't run away
You wouldn't

I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away
You threw it away

You were finished long before
We had even seen the start
Why don't you stand up, be a man about it?
Fight with your bare hands about it now

I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay, well did you?
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away

I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away"

'That's What You Get'

"No sir, well I don't wanna be the blame, not anymore.It's your turn, so take a seat we're settling the final score.And why do we like to hurt, so much?

I can't decideYou have made it harder just to go onAnd why, all the possibilities Well I was wrong

That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.I drowned out all my sense with the sound of its beating.And that's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.

I wonder, how am I supposed to feel when you're not here.'Cause I burned every bridge I ever built when you were here.I still try holding on to silly things, I never learnOh why, all the possibilities I'm sure you've heard.

That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.I drowned out all my sense with the sound of its beating And that's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.

Pain make your way to me, to me.And I'll always be just so inviting.If I ever start to think straight,This heart will start a riot in me,

Let's start, start, hey!
Why do we like to hurt so much?Oh why do we like to hurt so much?
That's what you get when you let your heart win!Whoa.

That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa.
Now I can't trust myself with anything but this,And that's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa." 

'Hallelujah'

"Somehow everything's gonna fall right into place
If we only had a way to make it all fall faster everyday
If only time flew like a dove
Well God, make it fly faster than I'm falling in love

This time we're not giving up
Let's make it last forever
Screaming "hallelujah"
We'll make it last forever

Holding onto patience wearing thin
I can't force these eyes to see the end
If only time flew like a dove
We could watch it fly and just keep looking up

This time we're not giving up
Let's make it last forever
Screaming "hallelujah"
We'll make it last forever

And we've got time on our hands
Got nothing but time on our hands
Got nothing but, got nothing but
Got nothing but time on our hands

This time we're not giving up
Oh, let's make it last forever
Screaming "hallelujah" (hallelujah)
Hallelujah

'Misery Business' 

"I'm in the business of misery,
Let's take it from the top.
She's got a body like an hourglass it's ticking 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 had 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
Just steal it all away from you now.

But God does it feel 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'm passin' up, now look this way.

Well 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
Just 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
Just steal it all away from you now.

But God does it feel so good,
'Cause I got what I wanted now
And if you could then you know you would.
'Cause God it just feels so,
It just feels so good."

'When It Rains'

"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
And convinced yourself that
It's not the reason you don't see the sun anymore

And oh, oh, how could you do it?
Oh I, I never saw it coming.
Oh, oh, I need the ending.
So why can't you stay
Just long enough to explain?

And when it rains,
You always find an escape
Just running away,
From all of the ones who love you,
From everything.

You made yourself a bed
At the bottom of the blackest hole
And you'll sleep 'til May
And you'll say that you don't not see the sun anymore

And oh, oh, how could you do it?
Oh I, I never saw it coming.
And oh, oh, I need the ending.
So why can't you stay just long enough to explain?

Take your time.
Take my time.
Take these chances to turn it around.
Take these chances, we'll make it somehow
And take these chances to turn it around.
Just turn it around.

Oh, how could you do it?
Oh I, I never saw it coming.
Oh, oh, how could you do it?
Oh I, I never saw it coming.

Oh, oh, how could you do it?
Oh I, I never saw it coming.
Oh, oh I need an ending.
So why can't you stay
Just long enough to explain?

You can take your time, take my time."

'Let the Flames Begin' 

"What a shame we all became such fragile, broken things.A memory remains just a tiny spark.I give it all my oxygen,To let the flames begin.To let the flames begin.
Oh, glory.Oh, glory.

This is how we'll dance when,When they try to take us down.This is what we'll be.Oh, 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 hopeBuried beneath it all andHiding beneath it all, andGrowing beneath it all, and...

This is how we'll dance when,When they try to take us downThis is how we'll sing it.

This is how we'll stand whenWhen they burn our houses down.This is what will be.Oh, glory.

Reaching as I sink down into light.Reaching as I sink down into light.

This is how we'll dance when,When they try to take us downThis is how we'll sing it.This is how we'll stand when,When they burn our houses down.This is what we'll be.Oh, glory."

'Oh Father' outro (live performances only, after 'Let The Flames Begin')

"Oh FatherOh FatherOh FatherOh Father

Father,Well I am readyWon't you let it begin

'Cause I am here nowI want to dance in The mighty palm of your hand"

'Miracle'

"I've gone for too long living like I'm not alive
So I'm going to start over tonight
Beginning with you and I

When this memory fades
I'm gonna make sure it's replaced
With chances taken
Hope embraced
And have I told you

I'm not going
'Cause I've been waiting for a miracle
And I'm not leaving

I won't let you
Let you give up on a miracle
When it might save you

We've learned to run from
Anything uncomfortable
We've tied our pain below and no one ever has to know
That inside we're broken
I tried to patch things up again
To cut my tears and kill these fears
And have I told you, Have I...

I'm not going
'Cause I've been waiting for a miracle
And I'm not leaving
I won't let you
Let you give up on a miracle
'Cause it might save you

It's not faith if, if you use your eyes
Oh why
Get it right this time (this time)
Let's leave this all behind
Oh why

We'll get it right this time
It's not faith if you're using your eyes
Oh why

I've gone for too long living like I'm not alive
So I'm going to start over tonight
Beginning with you and
I don't want to run from anything uncomfortable
I just want, no
I just need this pain to end right here

I'm not going
'Cause I've been waiting for a miracle
And I'm not leaving
I won't let you
Let you give up on a miracle
'Cause it might save you
Yeah, it might save you
Oh, it might save you

It's not faith if, if you use your eyes
If you use your eyes
If you use your eyes"

'Miracle' outro (live performances only, lyrics vary very slightly from performance to performance, based lyrics on this audio)

"I asked for love
I asked for mercy
I asked for patience
But you're already all of these things.

I asked for love
I asked for mercy
I asked for patience
But you're already all of these things. 

I asked for love
I asked for mercy
I asked for shelter
And then I begged you for the rain

I asked for love

I asked for mercy
I asked for patience
But you're already all of these things.

I asked you for love
I asked you for mercy
I asked you for shelter
Then I begged you for the rain

Oh then I begged you for the rain
You're already all of these things
I know you're already all of these things

I asked for love
I asked for mercy
I asked for patience
But you're already all of these things

I asked for love
I asked for mercy
I asked for patience
But you're already all of these things

If I knew what I needed,
If I knew what was good for me,
Then I, I'd be down on my knees, on my knees, begging you "Please, please, please
Let your light shine bright inside of me."
Oh, inside of me"

'Crushcrushcrush'

"I got a lot to say to you
Yeah, I got a lot to say
I noticed your eyes are always glued to me
Keeping them here
And it makes no sense at all

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

Crush
Crush
Crush
Crush, crush
(Two, three, four!)

Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one, two, I was just 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

Crush
Crush
Crush
Crush, crush
(Two, three, four!)

Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one, two i was just counting on
That never happens
I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than this now

Rock and roll, baby
Don't you know that we're all alone now?
I need something to sing about

Rock and roll, hey (Hey!)
Don't you know, baby, we're all alone now?
I need something to sing about

Rock and roll, Hey
Don't you know, baby, we're all alone now?
Give me something to sing about

Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one, two I was just counting on
That never happens
I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than this
No, oh

Nothing compares to a quiet evening alone
Just the one, two I was just counting on
That never happens
I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than
More than this"

'We Are Broken' 

"I am outsideAnd I've been waiting for the sunWith my wide eyes, I've seen worlds that don't belongMy mouth is dry with words I cannot verbalizeTell me why 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 all the promise we adored?Give us life again cause we just wanna be whole.

Lock the doors'Cause I'd like to capture this voice that came to me tonightSo 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 insideYour arms like towers; tower over me.

'Cause we are broken. What must we do to restore our innocence and all the promise we adored?Give us life again cause we just wanna be whole.

Tower over meTower over me And I'll take the truth at any cost.

'Cause we are broken. What must we do to restore our innocence and all the promise we adored?Give us life again cause we just wanna be whole."

'Fences' 

"I'm sitting in a room,Made up of only big white walls and in the hallsThere are people looking throughThe window in the door, and they know exactly what we're here for.

Don't look upJust let them thinkThere's no place elseYou'd rather be.

You're always on displayFor everyone to watch and learn from,Don't you know by now,You can't turn backBecause this road is all you'll ever have.

And it's obvious that your dying, dying.Just living proof that the camera's lying.And oh oh 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, seprate from the world.The constant battle that you hate to fight,Just blame the limelight.

Don't look upJust let them thinkThere's no place elseYou'd rather be.

And now you can't turn backBecause 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 oh oh open wide, 'cause this is your night.So smile.

Yeah, yeah you're asking for itWith every breath that you breathe inJust breathe it in.

Yeah, yeah well you're just a messYou do all this big talkingSo now let's see you walk it.I said let's see you walk it.

Yeah, yeah well you're just a messYou do all this big talkingSo 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."

'Born For This' 

"Oh no I just keep on falling
(Back to the same old)
Where’s hope when misery comes crawling?
(On my way)
With your faith you’ll trigger a landslide
(Victory)
To kill off this common sense of mine

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…

(We want the airways back, we want the airways back)

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 I'm out if everyone’s worth pleasing
(wa ah)
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…

(We want the airways back, we want the airways)

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, do you feel the pressure?

All right, so you think you’re ready?
Okay, then you say this with me
Go!

We were born for this
(We were born for this)

Alright, so you think you’re ready?
Okay, then you say this with me
Go!

We were born for this
(We were born for this)
We were born for this
(We were born for this)

We were born for
We were born for

Everybody sing like it’s the last song you will ever sing
Tell me, tell me, can you feel the pressure?
Everybody live like it’s the last day you will ever see
Tell me, tell me, can 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"

'Stop This Song (Lovesick Melody)'

"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)

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
I've come to far to get over you, and you don't have a clue
You don't know what you do to me

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"

'Decoy'

"Close your eyes and make believe this is where you want to beForgetting all the memories, try to forget love cause love's forgotten meWell hey, hey baby, it's never too late pretty soon you won't remember a thingAnd I'll be distant, the stars reminiscingYour heart's been wasted on me

You've never been so used as I'm using you, abusing youMy little decoyDon't look so blue, you should've seen right throughI'm using you, my little decoyMy little decoy

Live your life inside a dreamTime is changing everythingForgetting all the memoriesAnd I'm forced into you just cause you're into meWell hey, hey baby, it's never too lateWhen I'm gone you won't remember a thingBut I can't stay and you know I won't waitI was gone from the very first day

You've never been so used as I'm using you, abusing youMy little decoyDon't look so blue, you should've seen right throughI'm using you, my little decoy

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 decoyYou've never been so used, my little decoyAnd so I'm using you, my little decoy" 

'Brand New Eyes'

'Brand New Eyes' intro (live performances only)

"So your father told you onceThat you were his princessYou won't see the castleYou cannot find your prince

And now you've grown a lotAnd your dress don't fit rightYour daddy's not a heroHe stole your chariot

So here you are in piecesTrying to prove to us it's realThe softness of your smileAnd the lies you want to feel

The scales beneath your skinAre showing off todayThere's evil in your heartAnd it wants out to play

There's evil in your heartAnd it wants out to play

There's evil in your heart

And I've made a home here, for me
You'll burn it down, with your fantasty

And I've made a home here, for me
You'll burn it down, with your fantasy"

'Careful'

"I 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 opened mine
It's only the real world,
A life you will never know

Shifting your weight
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
The truth never set me free
The truth never set me free
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...

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"

'Ignorance'

If I'm a bad person,
You don't like me
Well, I guess I'll make my own way
It's a circle
I mean cycle
I can't excite you any more

Where's your gavel? Your jury?
What's my offence 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,
Yeah, we're not the same
Oh we're not the same

Yeah 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
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

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
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,
That once fooled me
They won't get you anywhere
I'm not the same kid from your memory
Well 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,
Yeah we're not the same
Oh we're not the same

Yeah 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
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

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
Ignorance is your new best friend
Ignorance is your new best friend
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

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"

'Playing God'

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
Oh oh oh ohhhh

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 that 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
Oh oh oh ohhhh

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"

'Brick By Boring Brick'

She lives in a fairy tale
Somewhere too far for us to find
Forgotten the taste and smell
Of a world that she's left behind

It's all about the exposure, the lens I told her
The angles were 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
We'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle

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 house 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
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

Well, if it's not real
You can't hold it in your hands
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
Even in the dark
And that's where I want to be, yeah

Go get your shovel
We'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle

Go get your shovel
We'll dig a deep hole
To bury the castle, bury the castle"

'Turn It Off'

"I scraped my knees while I was prayingAnd found a demon in my safest havenSeems like its getting harder to believe in anythingAnd just to get lost in all my selfish thoughts

I wanna know what it’d be likeTo find perfection in my prideTo 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 cliffAnd in the freefall I will realize I'm better off when I hit the bottom

The tragedy, it seems unendingI'm watching everyone I looked up to break and bendingWe’re taking short-cuts and false illusions Just to come out the hero

Well I can see behind the curtainThe wheels are cranking, turning It's all wrong the way we’re workingTowards 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 cliffAnd in the freefall I will realize I'm better off when I hit the bottom

I wanna know what it’d be likeTo find perfection in my prideTo 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 againAgain, again, again. 

And the worst part is before it gets any better we’re headed for a cliffAnd 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 cliffAnd in the freefall I will realize I'm better off when I hit the bottom"

'The Only Exception'

"When I was younger
I saw my daddy cryAnd cursed at the windHe broke his own heartAnd I watchedAs he tried to re-assemble it

And my momma swore That she would never let herself forgetAnd that was the day that I promisedI'd never sing of loveIf it does not exist

But darlin',You, are, the only exceptionBut, you, are, the only exceptionBut, you, are, the only exceptionYou, are, the only exception

Maybe I know, somewhereDeep in my soulThat love never lastsAnd we've got to find other waysTo make it aloneOr keep a straight face

And i've always lived like thisKeeping it comfortable, distance, and up until nowI'd sworn to myself that I'm contentWith lonelinessBecause none of it Was ever worth the risk, but...

You, are, the only exceptionYou, are, the only exceptionYou, are, the only exceptionYou, are, the only exception

I've got a tight grip on realityBut I can't let go of what's in front of me hereI know you're leaving in the morning, when you wake upLeave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream
Oh

You, are, the only exceptionYou, are, the only exceptionYou, are, the only exceptionYou, are, the only exceptionYou, are, the only exceptionYou, are, the only exceptionYou, are, the only exceptionYou, are, the only exception

And I'm on my way to believing.Oh, And I'm on my way to believing."

"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 IWon't look back 'cause there's no useIt's time to move forward

I feel no sympathy,You live inside a cave!You barely get by, the rest of usAre 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 live inside a caveYou barely get by the rest of usAre 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 tiedSo cross them tight,Won't you promise me tonightIf it's the last thing you do, you'll get out...

I feel no sympathy,You live inside a cave.You barely get by the rest of usAre trying, there's no need to apologize,I've got no time, I've got no time

I feel no sympathy,You live inside a caveYou barely get by the rest of usAre trying, there's no need to apologize,Got no time
I've got no time for feeling sorryI've got no time for feeling sorry"

'Looking Up'

"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.
Oh, 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
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,
Most everything
That I would have died for
Just yesterday,
Just yeterday. 

Honestly, can you believe we crossed the world while it's asleep?
I'd never trade it in, cause I've always wanted this
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,
(whoo-oa, whooo-oa!)
But what a waste it would’ve been
(whoo-oa, whooo-oa) 

I can't believe we almost hung it up
(whoo-oa, whooo-oa)
We're just getting started (whoo-oa, whooo-oa) 

Honestly, can you believe we crossed the world while it's asleep?
I'd never trade it in, cause I've always wanted this!
It's not a dream anymore! No, no
It's not a dream anymore! No, no
It’s worth fighting for.

I can't believe we almost hung it up
(woah-ohohoh)
We're just getting started
(woah-ohohoh) 

I can't believe we almost hung it up
(woah-ohohoh)
We're just getting started
(woah-ohohoh)

We're just getting started
We're just getting started"

 'Where the Lines Overlap'

Give me attention
I need it now
Too much distance
To measure it out (out loud)

Tracing patterns
Across our personal map
And making pictures
Where the lines overlap
Where the lines overlap

No one is as lucky as us
We're not at the end but
Oh we already won
Oh no, no one
Is as lucky as us
Is as lucky as us

Call me over
And tell me how
Well, you got so far
Never making a single sound

I'm not used to it
But I can learn
There's nothing to it
I've never been happier
Never been happier

No one is as lucky as us
We're not at the end but
Oh we already won
Oh no, no one
Is as lucky as us
Is as lucky as us

Now I've got a feeling
If I sang this loud enough, you
Would sing it back to me

I've got a feeling
If I sang this loud enough, you
Will sing it back to me

I've got a feeling
I've got a feeling
That you, will sing it back to me
You, will sing it back to me

No one is as lucky as us
We're not at the end
But Oh we already won
No no, No one
Is as lucky as us
Is as lucky as us
Is as lucky as us"

'Misguided Ghosts'

"I'm going away for a while.
But I'll be back, don't try to follow me,
'Cause I'll return as soon as possible.

See I'm trying to find my place,
But it might not be here where I feel safe.
We all learn to make mistakes.

And run
From them, from them,
With no direction.
We'll 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.

Now I'm told that this life,
And pain is just a simple comprimise,
So we can get what we want out of it.
Would someone care to classify,
Our broken hearts 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."

 'All I Wanted'

"Think of me when you're out, when you're out there
I'll beg you nice from my knees
When the world treats you way too fairly
It's a shame I'm a dream

All I wanted was you
All I wanted was you

I think I'll pace my apartment a few times
And fall asleep on the couch
And wake up early to black and white re-runs
That escaped from the 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
And just relive the start
And maybe then we'll remember to slow down
To 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"

'Decode'

"How can I decide what's right? When you're clouding up my mind Can't win your losing fight All the time 

Not gonna ever own what's mine When you're always taking sides You won't take away my pride No, not this time Not this time 

How did we get here? When I use 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 On my own I'm screaming "I love you so..." But my thoughts you can't decode

How did we get here? When I use to know you so well How did we get here? Well, I think I know 

Do you see what we've done? We've gone and made such fools of ourselves Do you see what we've done? We've gone and made such such fools of ourselves 

How did we get here? when I use to know you so well How did we get here? Well, I think I know 

I think I know I think I know There is something I see in you It might kill me I want it to be true"

'I Caught Myself'

"Down to youYou're pushing and pulling me down to youBut I don't know what I...

Now when I caught myself, I had to stop myselfFrom saying something that I should have never thoughtNow when I caught myself, I had to stop myselfFrom saying something that I should have never thought of youOf you...You're pushing and pulling me down to youBut I don't know what I wantNo I don't know what I want

You got it, you got itSome kind of magicHypnotic, hypnoticYou're leaving me breathlessI hate this, I hate thisYou're not the one I believe inWith God as my witness

Now when I caught myself, I had to stop myselfFrom saying something that I should have never thoughtNow when I caught myself, I had to stop myselfFrom saying something that I should have never thought of you
Of you...You're pushing and pulling me down to youBut I don't know what I wantNo I don't know what I want
Don't know what I wantBut I know it's not you

Keep pushing and pulling me downWhen I know in my heart it's not you
Hmmm... Ohh..

Now when I caught myself, I had to stop myselfFrom saying something that I should have never thought

Now when I caught myself, I had to stop myselfFrom saying something that I should have never thought of youI knew, I know in my heart it's not youI knew,but now i know what I want, I want, I wantOh no, I should have never thought!"

'7 Years in The Making' (unreleased, audio cannot be found) 

"I wanna go someplaceWhere everybody wins‘Cause I’ve lost all my friendsSince they got brand new eyesThey don’t look at me the sameIt’s anyone’s guess where I went wrongNow I’m the only oneWho’s thinking back

Seven years agoSeven years in the makingBut we’re always taking for grantedThe hands that fed us fullTen miles left to goTime is healing nothingOnly a matter of numbersThat won’t make us right

But I’m gonna make it throughHey, hey, heyI’m just tiredSo don’t push meThere’s more than enough roomFor a sad song or two

There was a beginning to the storyBut I don’t remember, I don’t rememberThere was a reasonSomething we wantedAnd I’m not backing down till I get it

Twenty years agoTwenty years in the makingWell, I know the highwayBetter than I know myselfIn a few years I hope I settle in toThe big idea that I can’t live for anyone else

But I’m gonna make it throughHey, hey, heyI’m just tiredSo don’t push meThere’s more than enough roomFor a sad song or two

I’m carrying bricks around my neckI can’t keep my head upI can’t see too far aheadI can’t keep my head up

It’s like carrying bricks around my neckTo make you rememberIt’s like digging up the dead‘Cause you won’t rememberHow we got hereWhy we are here?

When you finally decide it’s worth the painI’m hereI never went anywhereGrowing older, I never thought that IWould look back and not regret a thing"

'Singles Club' 

'Renegade'

"The grass wasn’t green enough hereAfter watering it with my tearsI’m not sure where you wentNow we are just past tense

And the snakes they’re slithering inChasing me to my endI can’t say where that isI’m running again

And when I get thereIt won’t be far enoughI’m a renegade, it’s in my bloodIf ever I get there it won’t be fast enoughI’m a renegade, I always was.

The spark never lit up a fireThough I tried and tried and triedThe wind came from your lungsA hurricane off your tongue

I’ll keep your secrets with meRight behind my teethYour anger, your anchorBut I’ll sail much further onAh, on

And when I get thereIt won’t be far enoughI’m a renegadeIt’s in my bloodIf ever I get thereIt won’t be fast enoughI’m a renegadeI always was

I’ll keep runningI’ll keep running againKeep runningI’ll keep runningRunning, runningKeep running, runningRunning

Oh, when I get thereIt won’t be far enoughI’m a renegadeIt’s in my bloodIf ever I get thereIt won’t be fast enoughI’m a renegadeI always was
I’m a renegadeI always was"

'In The Mourning'

"You escaped like a runaway trainOff the tracks and down again.My heart’s beating like a steamboat tuggingAll your burdensOn my shoulders

In the mourning, I’ll rise. In the mourning, I’ll let you dieIn the mourning,All my worry

Now there's nothing but time that’s wastedAnd words that have no backboneNow it seems like the whole world’s waitingCan you hear the echoes fading? 

In the mourning, I’ll rise. In the mourning, I’ll let you dieIn the mourning,All my sorry

And it takes all my strength Not to dig you up from the ground in which you layThe biggest part of me You were the greatest thingAnd now you're just a memory to let go of

In the mourning, I’ll rise. In the mourning, I’ll let you dieIn the mourning,All my sorry

So in the mourning, I’ll rise. In the mourning, I’ll let you dieIn the mourning,All my sorry."

'Hello Cold World'

"I feel happy, I feel sad, I feel like running through the walls
I'm overjoyed, I'm undecided, I don't know who I am
Well maybe I'm not perfect, at least I'm working on it

Twenty-two is like the worst idea that I have ever had
It's too much pain, it's too much freedom, what should I do with this?
It's not the way you plan it, it's how you make it happen
Yeah, it's how you make it happen

It's such a cold, cold world (hello cold world) and I can't get out
So I'll just make the best of everything I'll never have
Such a cold, cold world (hello cold world) and it's got me down
But I'll get right back up as long as it spins around
Hello cold world

Girls and boys keep lining up to see if they can measure up
They look good and they feel wild, but it won't never be enough
You say you're really hurting, at least you're feeling something
We can hope and we can pray that everything will work out fine
But you can't just stay down on your knees, the revolution is outside
You wanna make a difference, get out and go begin it
Whoah, get out and go begin it

It's such a cold, cold world (hello cold world) and I can't get out
So I'll just make the best of everything I'll never have
Such a cold, cold world (hello cold world) and it's got me down
But I'll get right back up as long as it spins around
Hello cold world

Don't need my eyes opened wide, I just want to feel something

It's such a cold, cold world (hello cold world) and I can't get out
So I'll just make the best of everything I'll never have
Such a cold, cold world (hello cold world) and it's got me down
But I'll get right back up as long as it spins around (spins around)

Oh, whoah oh oh,
Oh, whoah oh oh, hello cold world
Oh, whoah oh oh,
Oh, whoah oh oh, hello cold world" 

'Monster' 

"You were my conscious
So solid now you’re like water
And we started drowning
Not like we’d sink any further

I let my heart go
It’s somewhere down at the bottom
But I’ll get a new one
And come back for the hope that you've stolen

I’ll stop the whole world
I’ll stop the whole world from turning into a monster
And eating us alive
Don’t you ever wonder how we survive?
But now that you’re gone the world is ours.

I’m only human
I've got a skeleton in me
But I’m not the villain
Despite what you’re always preaching

Call me a traitor
I'm just collecting your victims
And they’re getting stronger.
I hear them calling.
They're calling

I’ll stop the whole world
I’ll stop the whole world from turning into a monster
And eating us alive
Don’t you ever wonder how we'd survive?
But now that you’re gone the world is ours.

You find your strength in solutions
But I like the tension
And not always knowing the answers
You’re gonna lose it
You’re gonna lose it

I’ll stop the whole world
I’ll stop the whole world from turning into a monster
And eating us alive
Don’t you ever wonder how we'd survive?
But now that you’re gone the world...

I’ll stop the whole world
I’ll stop the whole world from turning into a monster
And eating us alive
Don’t you ever wonder how we'd survive?
But now that you’re gone the world is ours

'Monster' outro (live performances only)

"Like the moon we borrow our light
I am nothing but a shadow in the night
But if you let me I will look and try
To let your glory and mercy shine."
