Lyrics


1. TAKE THIS NOW

No way
Not
Never
Don't tell me what to do

Eat
Sleep
Breathe
Whatever
I'm just as alive as you

Ageless
Weightless
Feel it
Try this

Pierce this
Love this
Dying, so take this now


2. BETTER THIS WAY

I'll admit I miss your face
But it's better this way
Better this way
Everything's sacred
Nothing's wasted
Better this way
Better this way

Stick together
Fall apart
In love and pain
It's all an art

Smash the mold
And start again
Without the crime
With thicker skin

I wanna go, go
And then don't, don't
But now I know, know
Yeah, now I know

Don't follow me
You're on your own
No company
You're all alone

Burning off
The misery
We're waking up
To kill the dream

I'll take the blame
For the pain in your eyes
This is your last look
Your final goodbye


3. RAW.REAL.

Cage it up, let it free
This is you, this is me
When it ends, we begin
Say your prayer, as we sin

Follow rules or rebel
Keep secrets, live to tell
Words are false, but it's true
Where's the line me and you

Make it right, can't you see
Let's unite, victory
Make it right instantly
Let's unite, victory

This is life, this is death
This is right, this is breath
This is true, how I feel
This is raw, this is real

This is back, this is front
This is black, this is white
This is bad, this is want
These are tears I won't cry

This is in, this is out
This is up, this is down
Make it right, give it more
Let's unite, with this chord

Don't take what you need
Leave me here just to bleed
I can break just like you
I can cut I can bruise
This is raw
This is real


4. SHAKE THE GROUND

You serve it up like I want some
But I don't want your opinion
You load it up like a shotgun
Pull the trigger don't you love it
When you take one out

Take one out

I won't do what I'm told
I will break you down
Take you down
Shake the ground

Your dark sun leaves me cold
I will burn it out
Wear you down
Shake the ground

You've got the whole world choking
From all the bridges that you're burnin'
You're not the leader of an army
I'm not the enemy step back down

Step back down

So tie your rope
Your karma's killing me
I hope you know
You'll never get to me
You cover's blown
There's no more breaking me
This is the end of control


5. TOO MANY FACES

Do you care about me
Do you think I don't bleed
Are you trying to hide behind a stupid lie
When the truth is in your eyes
Do you think I don't see
What you're pushing on me
In your mind you think it's only you against the world
Is it you against the world

You say you'll never go that for
But you're not who you say you are
You've too many, too many faces
Your time is up in too many places

You say you'll never push that hard
But you're not who you say you are
You've got your heart in too many places
You've got too many, too many faces

Have you lost yourself
Always tring to sell
The person that you think you are, you stay alone
'Cause real is just too hard

Always laying the blame
You're never one in the same
Could it be that you're afraid to look inside and find
You'll never get it right

So many sides to you
Nobody knows the truth
How're you ever gonna keep it straight

I know what you're all about
I got you figured out
Do you wanna be a memory

Do you care about me


6. LET IT GO

You never see my way
Pissing on my flame
I'll be the one left standing

With everything I do
It never pleases you
But I'll be the last one laughing

Listen
You're always missing
Blind to my vision
No

I just won't let it go
Just can't let it go
Just won't let it go

No matter
What
It's in my blood

I just won't let it go
Just can't let it go
Just won't let it go

It won't die
This dream's alive
And I won't let it go

I thought I'd try your way
But I went down in flames
I shoulda seen it comin'

Life is more than sitting back
Oh I'm on the attack
And now I'm off and running

Listen
I'm on a mission
Done with ass kissin'
No

It's in my blood
And I won't give up
'Cause it's running through my veins

It's in my blood
'Cause it's all I want
And I won't go down in flames


7. SACRIFICIAL LAMB

Find it
Take it
Get it while you can
Make it
Waste it
Sacrificial lamb

On the altar
Crush it in your hand
Fix to break it
Sacrificial lamb

Who? Who?
You, you
Who? Who?
You and me too

I can be your everything
I can be your nothing, no one, misery
I'll be your anything
I can be your nothing, no one, misery
You can make me history

Tear it open
Make it what you can
Eyes that
Bleed through
Sacrificial lamb

Broken secrets
You don't understand
Close off
Shut down
Sacrificial lamb

You can make me history

Tear me open let me out
End it here and show me how
Sacrifice what's left of me
This is how it has to be


8. ACT THE PART

I'm a little selfish
With a lot to give
I'm a broken bone
I'm a losing bid

I know...
You want me in, in my place

I'm damaged bliss
I'm an unknown voice
Make you feel less alone
But I'm not your toy
I know...
You want me out, out of your face

I can smile for the camera
I can feed you my heart
I can lie laughing at you
I can act my part
And it's not the way I wanted it to be
But no one ever asked me
So I smile for the cameea
And I act my part

Whoa

Under my skin
Written in my blood
There's a secret I keep
It's the mask you love

I know...
You don't know me at all

I'm a little bit bruised
Living in the lies
But you hunger for more
Not the pain, my disguise

I'll be your fight
I'll be your fall

And under everything I hide away
Buired deep another face
All the secrets you will never know
No... no...


9. DRAWING A BLANK

Break it apart, just tear it down
Our world is lost, no solid ground
I gave you a chance, now I'm empty
You strangle my life, nothing left of me

You...You're always choosing sides
But I'm just choosing you...
Uncrying tears I've cried...

And now I'm drawing a blank
Nothing that you say
And nothing that you do
Makes...any sense...any sense to me
Wait...
'Cause I thought that I knew
What I wanted from you
But now I'm drawing a blank

Change all the facts
Zero me out
Buried in your wreckage, falling down
If I had the chance to understand
How to get through build it up again

You...You're always choosing sides
Now the side is choosing you...
Uncrying tears I've cried...

What would keep you warm at night
What would change your dark to light
Take what's broken make it right
Make me believe it's worth the fight

And now I'm drawing a blank
Nothing that you say
And nothing that you do
Makes...any sense...any sense to me
Wait...
'Cause I thought that I knew
What I wanted from you
What are you trying to prove

'Cause now I'm drawing a blank


10. HEART IS A HOLE

What do you do when the truth was a lie all along
Where do you turn to
When you find the rights were always wrong

All this dying i went through to live for you...
And now...

My heart is just a hole
An empty space that used to belong to you
But now now that you're gone
And my soul's turned cold
Nothing to fill this
Heart that's hole

What do you do when you think
You know someone inside out
Where do you go to when all your faith turns into doubt

No time machine can turn the hands of the clock back again

I still think of you when I
Close my eyes

And every time I do oh
Part of me dies

I still think of you when I
Close my eyes


11. PAPER DOLL

Who's right? Who's wrong?
Who cares?
Life's short, life's long
It's everywhere

I won't wastle my time with you
Unless you give me truth
I won't waste my time on proving time is wasting you

I'm not here to... break your fall
I won't be your paper doll

I'not the kind you control
But you're trying too well
You'll never get to my soul
Though you're trying to you never will

I'm not here to... break your fall
I won't be your paper doll

Who's hurt? Who's healed?
Who cares?
We fall we break
All torn and scared

I have bent and swayed for you
Until I'm black and blue
I have wasted breath on you
Until the hatred grew

When you think of me
A million tears from now
You'll be on your knees
Wishing you could go back
Back
Somehow


12. HOLD ON

We're in a river bleeding doubt
And it's up to our heads
Trying to swim our way out of it
But our friends are all dead

We gotta hold, hold on to each other
Each other gotta hold, hold on to each other
Each other gotta hold, hold on to each other
Each other gotta hold, hold on to each other
Each other yeah oh

Can't look back
'Cause the past is a terrible mess
We won't die
We'll survive The Apocalypse

No,no,no,no
'Cause when the sun comes out
We're waiting for the sky to break

No,no,no,no
'Cause when the sun is gone
We're waiting for the world to wake up
