1. KINGDOM COME

We're all messed up so we just pretend
The world won't stop spinning past the end
The one we've got is not what we're used to

I can't pretend that it doesn't plague me
I can't pretend that it hasn't changed me
I can't pretend that I'm not afraid of the end (I can't pretend)
I wonder
Is God getting lonely (getting lonely)

We fall down
We fall down
Like ashes, till we hit the ground

If we're alright and nothing's wrong
If no one's left to carry on
What's the point of fighting the truth?

I can't pretend that it doesn't plague me
I can't pretend that it hasn't changed me
I can't pretend that I'm not afraid of the end
I can't pretend that I'm not afraid of the end
God's getting lonely (getting lonely)

We fall down
We fall down
Like ashes, till we hit the ground
We all fall down

Now, piece by piece
It's making sense to me
When understanding means
Bracing for a sudden ending

We fall down
We fall down
Like ashes, till we hit the ground
We all fall down
We all fall down


2. MONSTER

Digging down, digging down, digging down in the dirt
Sweat it out, sweat it out till it doesn't burn
In the dark, in the dark it can hear when I breathe
Now it's closing in on me

It's getting louder now, it's getting louder now
Don't make another sound (I can feel it coming to life)
It's getting closer now, it's getting closer now
It's gonna run me down (I can feel it coming to life)
I can feel it coming to life
I can feel it coming

Take me to my grave, save me
I can feel it coming to life
Chain me to my cage, save me
I can feel it coming to life

Trying to feel, trying to heal, trying to kill the disease
Picking flesh, picking bone from between my teeth
No sleep, no sleep when you run with the beasts
(No sleep, no sleep) Now they're closing in on me

It's getting louder now, it's getting louder now
Don't make another sound (I can feel it coming to life)
It's getting closer now, it's getting closer now
Don't let it take me out (I can feel it coming to life)

Take me to my grave, save me
I can feel it coming to life
Chain me to my cage, save me
I can feel it coming to life
I can feel it coming to life
I can feel it coming to life

It's killing me, killing me, killing me, killing me, killing me
It's killing me slow, killing me slow
It's killing me, killing me, killing me, killing me, killing me
It's killing me slow, killing me slow
It's killing me, killing me, killing me, killing me, killing me
It's killing me slow, killing me slow

Take me to my grave, save me
I can feel it coming to life
Chain me to my cage, save me
I can feel it coming to life
(From the inside out)
I can feel it coming to life
(From the inside out)
I can feel it coming to life
I can feel it coming to life
Yeah, I can feel it coming to life


3. SICK

I'll give you misery, 'cause you know what it feels like
I'll give you happiness, 'cause you want it all to yourself
I'll give you all of me, it'll take just a moment
And of our everything, but all you get is what you see

You turned my insides out
You turned my insides out

Yeah, you make me sick, so that you can heal
And I make myself known so that you can feel
My reflection must be somebody else
'Cause I don't recognize myself

I'll take your loneliness, 'cause I know what it feels like
All your uncertainty, I'll make into mine
I'll take your punishment, 'cause I think I deserve it
All your never ending condescending arguments

Lay me out on your table
Let's get straight to the heart of this

You turned my insides out
You turned my insides out

Yeah, you make me sick, so that you can heal
And I make myself known so that you can feel
My reflection must be somebody else
'Cause I don't recognize myself

You turned my insides out
You turned my insides out

Yeah, you make me sick, so that you can heal
And I make myself known so that you can feel
My reflection must be somebody else
'Cause I don't recognize myself
No, I don't recognize myself
No, I don't recognize myself


4. OVERTHINKING

I could have just held my tongue
I should have just filled my lungs
Breathe in, breathe out and repeat

You know me well
Or at least in as far as I can tell
You should have known better
Than telling me I should have held it together for us
When I'm barely together myself
I'm barely together myself

I'm overthinking
Every thing I say and I do
Just reminds me I don't need you
'Cause there's nothing left for me to hang on to

And if you had kept your word
And listened instead of just heard
Instead of just waiting for your turn to speak
Then you'd know I was weak, but you don't
No wonder reality hurts
No wonder reality hurts

I'm overthinking
Every thing I say and I do
Just reminds me I don't need you
'Cause there's nothing left for me to hang on to
I'm overthinking
And I'm done with feeling empty
And pretending like you get me
I'm overthinking, but I think I'm through

I'm beating myself black and blue
I'm beating myself
I'm beating myself black and blue
(I'm beating myself black and blue)

I'm overthinking
Every thing I say and I do
Just reminds me I don't need you
'Cause there's nothing left for me to hang on to
I'm overthinking
And I'm done with feeling empty
And pretending like you get me
I'm overthinking. If I'm through
I'm beating myself black and blue
(Beat myself black and blue)
(Beat myself)
I'm beating myself black and blue
(Beat myself black and blue)
But it won't make no difference to you


5. THROUGH GLASS

I'm told that love is golden
Something to hold on, but going's tough
And I've seen, what love can mean when
Someone believes in you more than you ever could

I felt that same, same rhythm in the same, same rush
Got that same, same feeling from the same touch
It's like a wildfire growing 'tween my head and my heart

I can only wonder why I can't see in color without you
And I don't wanna try 'cause I see how the colors surround you
You lighten up the dark in me
You lighten up the dark in me

I'm [?], your vision blurs
Your stomach turns and you trip over every word

I felt that same, same rhythm in the same, same rush
Got that same, same feeling from the same touch
It's like a wildfire growing 'tween my head and my heart

I can only wonder why I can't see in color without you
And I don't wanna try 'cause I see how the colors surround you
You lighten up the dark in me
You lighten up the dark in me
You lighten up the dark in me

I can only wonder why I can't see in color without you
And I don't wanna try 'cause I see how the colors surround you
You lighten up the dark in me
You lighten up the dark in me
You lighten up the dark in me


6. HALF-HEARTED

You're puttin' me together and tear me apart
You're always gonna be the other half of my heart

I've been hard on myself, but don't say you're sorry
Just say anything, I'm not ready for lonely
Tomorrow's always better than yesterday, it never comes too far away
Pain's always closer

You're puttin' me together and tear me apart
We're always been forever and back to the start
Your love means a lot but never a scar
You're always gonna be the other half of my heart

I wanna know what you feel, your face already told me
But it doesn't feel real if I don't hear your voice

Puttin' me together and tear me apart
We're always been forever and back to the start
Your love means a lot but never a scar
You're always gonna be the other half of my heart

You're everything I ever wanted (every wanted, wanted)
Something deep inside me's always fought it (fought it, fought it, fought it)
So I left it six feet down and just ignore it till it fades

You're puttin' me together and tear me apart
You're always gonna be the other half of my heart

You're puttin' me together and tear me apart
(Puttin' me together and tear me apart)
We're always been forever and back to the start
(Always been forever and back to the start)
Your love means a lot but never a scar
(Your love means a lot but never a scar)
You're always gonna be the other half of my heart
(Always gonna be) half of my heart

(You're always gonna be the other half of my heart)
Half of my heart
(You're always gonna be the other half of my heart)
Half of my heart


7. NO MAN'S LAND

Another man stumbles
Another one falls
And one of us crumbles
Another one just dance it off
We suffer in silence
One by one we break
We only know violence
But what a difference a calm and steady hand can make
(A steady hand can make)

Now we're broken, supposed to be brave, but
The world that we've taken is washing away
Yeah, we're, but no one's to blame
Everything is changing but we are, we are the same

Too many mothers
Are burying sons
And too many daughters
Are being robbed of their own father's love
We're killing each other
We're killing ourselves
'cause nobody taught us
That it ain't weakness to open up and reach for help

Staring at the bottom of the bottom
Like it owes us something
We owe it to ourselves to be better
Guess the world's gonna give us nothing

Now we're broken, supposed to be brave, but
The world that we've taken is washing away
Yeah, we're broken, but no one's to blame
Everything is changing but we are, we are the same

Staring at the bottom of the bottom
Like it owes us something
We owe it to ourselves to be better
Guess the world's gonna give us nothing
Staring at the bottom of the bottom
Like it owes us something
We owe it to ourselves to be better
Guess the world's gonna give us nothing

Now we're broken, supposed to be brave, but
The world that we've taken is washing away
Yeah, we're broken, but no one's to blame
Everything is changing but we are, we are the same (same)
We are the same


8. BLACK

I sit in the back of my throne
Breathing in second hand smoke
You got me at the end of my rope
Quietly hopin' you, hopin' you choke
Biting down on my tongue
Till I can taste, I can taste blood
My mouth is like a loaded gun
Screaming at the top of my, top of my lungs

You're killing me
I'll take you down for free
You don't deserve to breathe
But here I am, here I am, still here in this bitch
Because I've had enough
I'm gonna shut you off
'Cause you've said too much

I sit in the back of my throne
Breathing in second hand smoke
You got me at the end of my rope
Quietly hopin' you, hopin' you choke
Biting down on my tongue
Till I can taste, I can taste blood
My mouth is like a loaded gun
Screaming at the top of my, top of my lungs

'Cause you're killing me
I'll take you down for free
You don't deserve to breathe
But here I am, here I am, still here in this bitch
Because I've had enough
I'm gonna shut you off
'Cause you've said too much

'Cause you've said too much
'Cause you've said too much

Biting down on my tongue
Till I can taste, I can taste blood
My mouth is like a loaded gun
Screaming at the top of my, top of my lungs

I'll set your world on fire
You've cut the wrong damn wire
My good sense is gone, and I'm cutting you
Cutting you down from your throne

I'm backing out

Going down in [?], take your prisoners
I can cut you down on my own
Going down in [?], take your prisoners
I can cut you down on my own

I sit in the back of my throne
Breathing in second hand smoke
You got me at the end of my rope
Quietly hopin' you, hopin' you choke


9. TILT

What if I told you, that we're all the same
If no one is equal, in this endless game
What if I told you, it's out of your hands
And after all is said and done, and nothing has changed -
We all want the same?

Here we go again
The future has failed us
It's coming 'round again
The sickness, the sadness
The cycles have to end
Somehow. We're tilted
And the ringing in my ears
Won't go away
It's happening again

What if I told you, that we're all the same
If no one is equal, in this endless game
What if I told you, it's out of your hands
And after all is said and done, and nothing has changed -
We all want the same?
We all want the same

Here we go again
The feeling of falling
It's all we'll ever know
Swing backwards and forwards...
It's getting old

My hands are tied behind my back
And I can barely catch my breath
And here we go again

What if I told you, that we're all the same
If no one is equal, in this endless game
What if I told you, it's out of your hands
And after all is said and done, and nothing has changed -
We all want the same?

And after all is said and done

We could right the wrongs and make our own
In time to start it all again
The cycle's gotta break

What if I told you, that we're all the same
If no one is equal, in this endless game
What if I told you, it's out of your hands
And after all is said and done, and nothing has changed -
We all want the same?

The future has failed us
It's coming 'round again
The pendulum is broken
So we're swinging by the neck
Instead. We're tilted
The ringing in my ears
Won't go away
It's happening again

We all want the same
We all want the same


10. BAD DREAM

Wrong place, wrong time, wrong side of the tracks to be
Split lip, chipped teeth and a taste of tar and concrete
Still in a daze, head in a haze, somebody please put me back to sleep
Put me back to sleep, yeah
I'm slipping away, starting to fade, circling the drain
It was all a dream, just a bad, bad dream, yeah

Replay, rewind, remembering piece by piece
Missteps, mistakes, misplaced my dignity
I hung in the bend, got out of hand, don't understand what is wrong with me
What's wrong with me, yeah
I'm slipping away, starting to fade, circling the drain
It was all a dream, just a bad, bad dream, yeah

A bad, bad dream
A bad, bad dream, yeah

Still in a daze, head in a haze, somebody please put me back to sleep
Put me back to sleep, yeah
I'm slipping away, starting to fade, circling the drain
It was all a dream, just a bad, bad dream, yeah

Wrong place, wrong time, wrong side of the tracks again
Replay, rewind, repeat, it was all a dream, just a bad, bad dream
It was all a dream, just a bad, bad dream

A bad, bad dream
A bad, bad dream, yeah

Still in a daze, head in a haze, somebody please put me back to sleep
Put me back to sleep, yeah
I'm slipping away, starting to fade, circling the drain
It was all a dream, just a bad, bad dream, yeah
Still in a daze, head in a haze, somebody please put me back to sleep
Put me back to sleep, yeah
I'm slipping away, starting to fade, circling the drain
It was all a dream, just a bad, bad dream
It was all a dream, just a bad, bad dream, yeah
