1. COLD

There's gotta be more than this
'cause what you're saying don't make sense
The fire in your eyes has gone out again
And the only thing i want
In the middle of disarray
Are words that can make you stay
Something that shakes you

Would you wait here?
Would you turn away?
We've been at this too long
I don't know what went wrong
Would you stay here if I begged you to?
Is there something I can do?
You're so cold

There's not a game that can't be won
There's not a fight that's ever done
When it cuts you deep within
You want, you want it more

In that moment when you're broken
And you struggle with sacrifice
Suddenly you feel it
That's when you know, that's when you know
This feels right

Would you wait here?
Would you turn away?
If I hadn't left you alone
You'd be standing here, standing here
Would you stay here if I begged you to?
Oh, what more can I do?
You're so damn cold

Would you wait here?
Would you turn away?
If you walked right out the door
I won't beg you anymore
Would you stay here with me now?
There's no more room for doubt
You're so damn cold

You're so cold
It's a good time to move along
You're so damn cold

Do you even know how?
You're so damn cold

Your'e so cold
You're so damn cold


2. DARE

Butane and gasoline
Light it up and take it to extreme
When you hit it never slows me down
I don't give a fuck about the threats you're throwing 'round
I won't take it anymore, I won't take it anymore

You dance around your intent
If you take me out of context
I'll put you down
Take you out

What've you got?
What've you got to show?
You can't look me in the eye
Heh, that's how I know
You wouldn't dare
You wouldn't dare
You wouldn't dare hurt me
'cause you just might get hurt yourself

Positively guaranteed
There's no one there when you bleed
Strip away what little is left
Gotta get your hands dirty
Not a chance

All this time that I let you slide
I'm just waiting for the day
I got nothing but time
You wouldn't dare
You wouldn't dare
You wouldn't dare cross me
Or you might end up on that cross yourself

You just might get hurt
Yeah, you just might get hurt yourself

Gotta get your hands dirty
Gotta get your hands
Gotta get your hands dirty
Gotta get your hands...
Dirty

To live in fear with every breath
I hope it's worth it
I hope it's worth it

You think you're different
But you're the same
Don't stand there with your folded arms
Or you'll look for someone else to blame

You wouldn't dare
You wouldn't dare
You wouldn't dare hurt me
'cause you just might get hurt yourself

You wouldn't dare
You wouldn't dare
You wouldn't dare hurt me
'cause you just might get hurt yourself

Hurt yourself
Hurt yourself
Yeah, hurt yourself
You wouldn't dare


3. GIVE IT TO YOU

She gonna (?) you bring
Don't you love the way you sing?
Love the way she sang to me

You got (?) and the rent due
You've been living large in my heart
I get, I get back to you
What you gonna do when it all falls apart?

I give it to you
But you take it too far
I'm wanna give it to you
But you'd probably break my heart

When I'm there you look right through me
Don't be surprised when lightning strikes you dead
Yesterday I tried to tell you again
I whispered in your ear
How do you like me so far?
How do you like me so far?

All these faces, strangers, empty house
Ain't nothing left, no fire burnin' here
No, no, no fire burnin' here

I give it to you
But you take it too far
Nothin' burning here
I wanna give it to you
But you'd probably break my heart

When I'm down you look right through me
Don't be surprised when lightning strikes you dead
Remember yesterday when I whispered in your ear and I said
How do you like me so far?
How do you like me so far?
How do you like me so far?
How do you like me so far?

Don't be surprised when lightning strikes
Don't be surprised when lightning strikes
Don't be surprised when lightning strikes
Don't be surprised when lightning strikes

You look right through me
You're dead

Remember yesterday when I whispered in your ear?
Don't be surprised when lightning strikes you dead
Remember yesterday when I whispered in your ear and i said
How do you like me so far?
How do you like me so far?
How do you like me so far?
How do you like me so far?


4. SLAVE

At the top of the world
In the palace of glass
Decisions made for everyone
And they’re built to last

And the bottom line, they missed
Everything you want
And you can’t move either way
And they know it

You’re a slave to the lie
Yeah, you’re a slave to the lie
It doesn’t matter what you say
Imagine what they do
Trample back, yeah, they’re coming for you

You’re a slave (Dragging your chains)
Slave (You’ve come pretty far)
Slave (You thought you were a superstar)
But you’re just a slave

They own you
(You're their bitch)

Thought you had them
In the palm of your hand
Even though you pick your master
What’s your master’s plan?

They got you tied up
Yeah, they got you wound (bound?) up
You’re left for dead
Nothing like a bitch for the rich man to fuck
Looks like you’re out of luck

Slave to the lie (You’re the bitch, you’re the)
Slave to the lie
I got a plan, I’ll sell everything
Give it all away
I’d rather live with nothing than be a, be a

Slave (dragging your chains)
Slave (You’ve come pretty far)
Slave (You thought you were a superstar)
But you’re just a slave

You’re a slave
Nothing but a slave
You’re a slave
Nothing but a slave

Than be a, be a

You’re a slave (Dragging your chains)
Slave (You’ve come pretty far)
Slave (You thought you were a superstar)
But you’re just a slave

You’re a slave (Dragging your chains)
Slave (You’ve come pretty far)
Slave (You thought you were a superstar)
But you’re just a slave


5. IN THE HANDS OF GOD

One…two…

This is the day familiar voice on the phone
(Are you ready? Yes.)
Don’t give a damn, consequences of the plan
(Are you ready? Yes.)

Ready?!
Are you?!
I’ve thought of every, everything possible
I’ve thought of every way out of this, every way out

Won’t you tell them the truth when they find me?
Won’t you tell them it’s in the hands, the hands of God?

Wired in, night vision switch on, and I’m ready
Ready…
Are you ready?!
My god will know me, convinced of my righteousness
My god will know by my actions, this was necessary

Won’t you tell them the truth when they find me?
Tell them, tell them it’s in the hands, the hands of God
I’m the one that they want, when you see what I’ve done
Won’t you tell them it’s in the hands, it's in the hands of God

I’ll stop at nothing
The blood is on your--
They speak of what I’ve done
The blood is on your--
No one's innocent
They call me a madman

Your hands, it’s on your hands
No one's innocent
No one's innocent
Innocent

Won’t you tell them the truth when they find me?
I’m the one, I'm the one that they want
It’s in the hands of God
They’ll never find me
I’m the one that they want
It’s in the hands of God, the hands of God

(Are you ready?)
(Are you ready?)
(Are you ready?)
(Are you?)


6. RUNNING BACKWARDS

Last time I looked you weren't feeling too good about love
You said "I had it up to here", really had enough
Better off cold
When I asked what happened next you said
This won’t do, you say na-na-na-na-na

Old memories never fade
Screaming through the back door, running
If you could you'd nail it to the wall
Keep running, yeah, keep running backwards

Running backwards
Running backwards
Running backwards
Running backwards

You had to have your back before you knew what was wrong
Free style, I’m in with it
Innocence gone
Now every day, you say the same thing "This won't do"
You say na-na-na-na-na

You'll never get away
From feeling that it’s your fault, you're the one to blame
If you could you'd take a blaze up to its walls
Keep running, keep running backwards

Running backwards
Running backwards
Running backwards

Running backwards
Running backwards
Running backwards
Running backwards

Old memories never fade
Screaming through the back door… back door
If you could you'd nail it to the wall
Keep running, keep running backwards
You’ll never get away
From feeling that it’s your fault, it’s your fault
If you could you'd nail it to the wall
Keep running, Keep running
Keep running backwards


7. LIFE WITHOUT YOU

You couldn’t take anymore
I heard the lock click, you closed the door
Like a rat in a trap of my design
Then they played our song
Don’t play that song again on the radio

The chances that we take
The promises we break
There’s no life without you
Life without you
Life without you

What’s there left to say
When words get in the way?
There’s no life without you
Life without you
Life without you

Revolution was in the air
It was everywhere (Revolution)
On the streets, on your lips
It’s hard to believe
Believe it’s over
I believe I thought that is all I want
But I was so young
I wanted so much more

The choices that we make
The promises we break
There’s no life without you
Life without you
Life without you

The challenge that we face
Actions without grace
There’s no life without you
Life without you
Life without you

The chances that we take
Life without you

They’re playing that song again
And it plays over and over
In my mind, it reminds me of life without you

What’s there left to say? (Life without you)
What's there left to say? (Life without you)
What’s there left? (Life without you)
What’s there left? (Life without you)


8. EVERYTHING

I just want to win back your heart
We can begin with a brand new start
We had something good for so long

I was looking for signs
When I saw myself fall
I looked in your eyes
And I saw it all

We could have everything and more
Anything that we can imagine
If we lean that way
I know it could happen

I never meant to break your heart
I never meant to pull my love away
I want to trust that our love is real
I want to believe in the things you say

Let’s start over now
I don’t want to wait
The future is ours
It’s never too late

We could have everything
We could have everything
We could have everything
We could have everything
If you believe
Dreams do come true

We could have everything and more
Everything that life has in store
Won’t you come back to me?
I know it can happen

We could have everything
Anything that we can imagine
Just lean that way
You know anything can happen

We could have everything and more
Everything that life has in store
I swear I’ll find a way
I’ll find a way

We could have everything
We could have everything
We could have everything
We could have everything


9. FALLEN

I’ve seen the look in your eye
And there’s no, no easy answers
You gave it all you had
But there’s so, so many questions, questions

Through this insane desire
Through this unbearable lie
Lies and empty promises
All this just fades, fades to grey

Yes, I know (Fade to grey)
That you’re fallen (Fallen)
I believe you could say anything
Anything, you’d say anything
When you’re fallen

What’s buried inside must speak
An innocent victim
The echoes of your past
Will someday grow silent
The hardship you have won’t last

Through this insane desire
Through this unbearable lie
Close your eyes and look inside
All this will fade, fade to grey

Yes, I know that you’re fallen (Fallen)
I believe you’d say anything
You’d do anything
You’d say anything
When you’re fallen (Fallen)

When you’re fallen (Fallen)
Fallen (Fallen)
When you're fallen (Fallen)
Fallen
Fallen, fade to grey

I believe you’d say anything
Anything, you’d say anything
When you’re fallen
When you’re fallen (Fallen)
When you’re fallen (Fallen)
When you're fallen (Fallen)


10. THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD

I’ve known love, but I lay here empty
My eyes are closed, but I find no rest
I clutch the phone like a jealous lover
I feel the weight of the world upon my chest

The sirens wail and my heart is raging
My clothes are soaked, can’t catch my breath
Voices say hang on for a little longer
I feel the weight of the world
I feel the weight of the world

This story might be close to over
But then, then again, every story ends
Don't show me the light
‘cause I’m not ready to go
I’ve got so much more to say
So much more to do

(?) I’m alive
(?) I’m alive
I’m alive

I feel the weight of the world
I feel the weight (Weight of the world)
If life is a message
Will they remember (Weight of the world)
When I’m gone, when I’m gone
What was the message?

(?)

When I’m gone, it goes on without me (Weight of the world)
When I’m gone, it goes on without me (Weight of the world)
When I’m gone, when I'm gone, what will they remember?
What will they think, what will they--

Remember…

Weight of the world
Weight of the world
Weight of the world
Weight of the world
Weight of the world
Weight of the world
Weight of the world
