2. I DONT WA NT TO BE HERE ANYMOREon pins and needles we are waiting for the fall we count the days scratching lines on a wallalways there at someones beck and call
no longer recognize the place that i call homeno longer recognize this face as my ownsomewhere, this fate, i lost control
we backed down we took no for answers far too long we felt those walls close around
i dont wanna be here anymorei dont wanna be here anymore
i dont wanna be here anymorei know theres nothing left worth staying for your paradise is something Ive endured
see i dont think i can ght this anymoreim listening with one foot out t he doorand something has to die to be reborni dont wanna be here anymore
on hand and foot we answered every single calland weathered every day like passing stormsbut when they break we will all be gone
wont back down wont take no for answersanymore these walls close we pace back and forth
i dont wanna be here anymorei know theres nothing left worth staying for your paradise is something Ive endured
see i dont think i can ght this anymoreim listening with one foot out the doorbut something has to die to be reborni dont wanna be here anymorethe point where we breakgets closer everydaybut where do we go?but where do we go?
i dont wanna be here anymorei dont wanna be here anymore
i dont wanna be here anymorei know theres nothing left worth st aying for your paradise is something Ive enduredsee i dont think i can ght this anymoreim listening with one foot out the doorbut something has to die and rebornand I dont wanna be here anymore, anymore
3 . T R A G E D Y + T I M Eon the edges of the sharpest knivesin the middle of the darkest nightsalways knew that i would nd you herein a puddle of the bravest tearsive seen enough to knowits lonely where you are
above the crowd, feet danglingfrom a rooftopshe waits from ledgesfor a voice to talk her down
and nothing matters but thepain when youre alonethe never-ending nights
when youre awake when youre prayingthat tomorrow its ok
there will be a time tocrack another smilemaybe not today or for awhilebut were holding on tolaugh again somedaylaugh again someday
all that matters is the time we haddoesnt matter how it all went badnever wonder what it might be likeshut the door, say goodbye
when faced with tragedy we come alive or come undone
dont look back let it shape you like an oceaneven the deepest scarsin time will fade
and nothing matters but thepain when youre aloneor the nights when your aw akepraying that tomorrow its ok
there will be a timeto crack another smilemaybe not today or for awhilebut were holding onto laugh again somedaybut were holding on
sometimes you have to go back to know just where you have beenbut were old enoughto know that what has been will be againand again
and the bravest of facesare the ones where we fake itin the roles that we play
but nothing matters whenthe pain is all but gone when you are nally awakedespite the overwhelming odds;tomorrow cameand when they see you crack a smileand you decide to stay awhile youll be ready thento laugh again
nothing matters but the pain
we are tragedy we are sympathy you see what you want to see we are misery
and distant memoriesbut we all learn to laugh again

4 . T H E B L A C K M A R K E Ta currency of heartache and sorrow the air we breathe is stale with moldto shadows we are slavesdigging deeper everydaybut emptiness is growing so old
headlamps light the tunnels we wanderthey shimmer and they dance on the walls
were lost inside these cavesas the chances of escapegrow slimmer til theres no chance at all
this ink it travels from the pageup my hand into my veinschoking on the stories Ive toldif there are words here left to sayi just wanna let you know
im falling on my knees right now im covered in the mess i madethese colors used to wash right outbut now they are a part of meive been searching for a remedy
when all along its been in front of mei need you herei need you now right now
we trafc in the blackest of marketstrade misery like diamonds and goldthe angst that we exchangefor applause and petty praiseis nally now taking its toll
but theres a world above the grounda life that we can lead
where we cant shed a lighton true criminals
when business and suffering is one and the same whenlaws fail the people
they turn to the ame
i found love i found lifeas a thorn stuck in your sideand you wonder why
when it all comes down will you say you dideverything you could?
when it all comes downcan you say that you never gave up?or were you standing byto watch it fall away
will you hold ondid you hold on or just let it fall?did you fall?
when it all comes down will you say you dideverything you could?
when it all comes downcan you say that you never gave up?
when it all comes down will you say you dideverything you could?
when it all comes down
when it all comes down
when the lights all go outand roadblocks go upas we sleep to the soundof alarms going off
when it all comes down will you say you dideverything you could?
were washing off the dirt from our clothesi dont wanna live without
no i just wanna let you know im falling on my knees right now im covered in the mess i madethese colors used to wash right outbut now they are a part of me
ive been searching for a remedyand all along its been in front of mei need you herei need you now right now
black stainsthey mark me like a letterdont fadecracking under the pressureblack stainsnothing stays gold
theres a world above the grounda life that we can leadbut were lost deep down in these holesand i have seen the way outnow i just wanna let you know
im falling on my knees right now im covered in the mess i madethese colors used to wash right outbut now they are a part of meive been searching for a remedy
when all along its been in front of me your voice it washed the stains away
5.THE ECO-TERRORIST IN MEspray paint the cameras
jam the frequency what you kill just comes alive in mehoods and bandanas make not an enemy
you cant dene us anyway you please
you make the rules we make the callsmy conscience clean my sins absolved
because i found godin the sound of your factories burning downnow i sleep so sound
when it all comes down will you say you dideverything you could?
when it all comes downcan you say that you never gave up?
or were you standing byto watch it fall away?
will you hold on or just let go?
instead of doing whats right
they built higher walls

8 . M E T H A D O N Elove like needle full of methadonepotent but not real left you wanting morelipstick track-marks bleeding wetlike Montagues and Capuletsfor us, child, the stars refuse to shine
why for us, child, do the stars refuse to shine?
somewhere strung out on the lam we wound up back here againlike unstable chemicalscombining only to explode
what would it take for you to noticei am heart on re and all the
worlds a fuse so dont get closethe trouble and the wortham i better off on my own?
contaminated quarantined then left aloneshipment refused address unknowndamaged goods they soon forgetin choking dust where we got leftfor us all the stars refuse to shine
so tap the vein and light the match we burn like stars before the crashbut for you theres still a chance
just let go what would it take for you to noticethat i am heart on re and all the
worlds a fuse so dont get closethe trouble and the worthim better off on my own
but now theres nowhere to runand now theres nowhere to hidetheres nothing under the sun
we havent already tried
what would it take for you to noticethat i am a hand grenadepin already pulled so dont let goas we chase the sunmy shadow slows us down
without me along youre better off, I know
9 . Z E R O V I S I B I L I T Y settling in here for the long haulcant hide forevers what they sayin like the windout with a bang meanwhile nothing has changed
with each word slowly uttereda storm brews in her eyesa missed shot at the buzzertime whether wastedor well-spent is still time
we are not brave we are not wise we stand at the end of the longest linesbut we stand here all together
we have been damnedbut we have survived
we came back to homes we dont recognizebut we returned here all together
moments of clarity here are short-livedbled through the bandages again
when is a lieno longer whitebut black as a day without sun
passed out in gutter woke up in your armsnursed back and recoveredthe same touch that heals me
left a scar we are not brave we are not wise we stand at the end of the longest linesbut we stand here all together
we have been damnedbut we have survived
we came back to homes we dont recognizebut we returned here all together
and the world works in ways that i neverhave claimed to know
we got out in front of the weatherbut it followedand view from here isnt betterbut its all we know its all we know
we are not brave we are not wise we stand at the edge of the border linesbut we stand here all together
we have been damnedbut we have survivedand who weve become you wont recognizebut we became them, all together
1 0 . AWA K E T O O L O N G i watched the rise and the fall of the common mani lived to see all our steps walked back i watched the walls all crash down crumbling
just to be rebuilt while we slept
we threw swords in the oceans wide and deep we promise peace but the peace wont lastbecause now we forge new blades so nervously
waiting for this harmony to pass
i stand guard and roam
like a sentinel and i see it allive been awake too long
wish there was something that could close my eyesto all that i seeawake too long it would be easierto fall asleep
we fell in love but the love kept running out we followed roads but the roads all end we lived and learned and learned to live withoutfalling from the ladders we ascend
ive seen the eyes of the widows left behindive seen the child of a fallen manand never once did our leaders apologizefor battles they began
cant look awayor pretend not to see and so I stay
ive been awake too long wish there was something that could close my eyesto all that i see awake too long it would be easierto fall asleep, asleep
maybe I would dream if I could sleepmaybe Id see what this could beinstead of what it isis there bliss in ignoranceis this our demise we cant preventshould we fall asleep?
ive been awake too long
and like constant vigils we are burning eternal amesa surgeryblades in an open heartand through it all it allevery single cutive been awake.

1 1 .P E O P L E L I V E H E R Emy god is better than yoursand the walls of my houseare so thick i hear nothing at all
i followed you out in the stormbut it carried you off and I burned every picture of yours
was that not enough
my gun is bigger than yoursso lets arm the massesand see what the bastards do then
walking tall once set us apartnow were down on all foursdo you cry my name in the dark like I do yours?
these storms are getting stronger now the trusses all bend and swaythe lightning hits, the power goes out in the frayas the waves crash highand the shoreline disappearsi will scream to the skyhey people live here
but my dreams are not unlike yoursthey long for the safety andbreak like a glass chandelierbut theres laughter and oh there is love
just past the edge of our fearsand theres chaos when push comes to shovebut its music to my ears
may you be in heaven beforethe devil knows youre deadand may these winds be always at your back because when were all just ghostsand the madness overtakes us
we will look at the ashesand say people lived here
from the penthouse to the holy martyrsea to shining seafrom the cofns full of kindergartenersis this what you call free?from the hate that drips from all your crossesare your hands so clean?theres a wildreand its spreading farfrom sea to shining sea
when were all just ghostsand the madness overtakes usi will scream to the sky
yeah Ill scream to the sky yeah Ill scream to the skyhey people live here.
1 2 . B R I D G E Sin a world of uncertaintythe night sky told us all to be patientbut when the ground started shaking i wondered for how long?
but theres a place that Id rather beand there a voice deep inside of mesaying the progress we are making is not progress at all
into a world of promisesis where we let ourselves be led
we built the bridges we now sleep under we framed the doorwaysbut may not pass throughthe very same roadsthat we now wanderthe ones you pass us by on
we paved with our bare hands
a black cloud hovers over mebut without all this guilt I feel nakedsomething about the way it
wraps its arms around
white snow covers everything an angel watches over me praying she asks me for a favorcatch me if i fall
a rush of blood straight to the headi wonder what this could have been
we built the bridges wenow sleep under
we framed the doorwaysbut may not pass throughthe very same roadsthat we now wanderthe roads you pass us by on
we paved with our bare hands
no i never meant to hurt youno i never meant to do you wrong i stood waiting but a man said move along
we laid the tracks downbut now theyve rottedand like a runaway train
we brace for the crash we were in love oncehave you forgotten?and like a runaway trainbearing down upon a gap
we built the bridgesand underneath their
shadows we now live
