Streets

So, whenever they'll say
That all we have is bound to fall
All together we'll stay
When they get in our way
When they get in our way

Strange, how everything seems
to float in grey and drown in gold
Stay, and everything's saved
When we're pulling our weight
When we're pulling our own weight down

I'll rise and guess where I will go
I'll rise and guess where I

Where do we go when the streets are calling
(Calling, Calling)
How do we know when we reach our falling
(Falling, Falling)

Say, that everything caves in
On our way to grander goals
Wait, and everything's saved
When we let it all in
When we let it all in

How we're letting it rain
our own distress, our own mistakes
Wait, 'til everything breaks
Then we're pulling our weight
Then we're pulling our own weight down

I'll rise and guess where I will go
I'll rise and guess where I

Where do we go when the streets are calling
(Calling, Calling)
How do we know when we reach our falling
(Falling, Falling)
Where do we go when the streets are calling
(Calling, Calling)
How do we know when we reach our falling
(Falling, Falling)

I'll rise and guess where I will go
I'll rise and guess where I will

Where do we go when the streets are calling
(Calling, Calling)
How do we know when we reach our falling
(Falling, Falling)

Where do we go when the streets are calling
(Calling, Calling)
How do we know when we reach our falling
(Falling, Falling)
Where do we go when the streets are calling
(Calling, Calling)
How do we know when we reach our falling
(Falling, Falling, Falling, Falling)

War

So, cut my hands and pull my arms in
All unforeseen but no surprise
For all the men in all your armies
Throw only bait that no one bites

Up and away we all go
Into the way we run
There you will find our stronghold
Though you won't find our guns
Up and away we all go
Into the way we run
There you will find our stronghold

We won't go to war

No we won't go to war
No we won't go to war

Say, all your time is almost done here
Waste all your light on other ones

Up and away we all go
Into the way we run
There you will find our stronghold
We won't go to war

No we won't go to war
No won't go to war
No we won't go to war
No won't go to war

We're getting away

No we won't go to war
No we won't go to war
(To deny it, To deny it
Is to go when you know that you're in it)
No we won't go to war
No we won't go to war

Riddles

Get it now
Tell me how to get it now
To hold it in or let it out
Tell me to go, or stay

Headed now
Show me where we're headed now
If only I'd have read the signs
I wouldn't be here going to waste

I really don't know
Oh, lost it a little
Don't go, must be a riddle
Don't you know
Oh, lost in your riddles
Lost in your riddles

Where we will go, we'll be lost in the middle
Where we will go, I'll be lost in your riddles

Better now
Tell me is it better now
To keep you right here by my side
Or have you like smoke, to fade

Settle down
If only I could settle down
I know that I'd have read the lines
And wouldn't be here going to waste

But I really don't know
Oh, lost it a little
Don't go, must be a riddle
Don't you know
Oh, I'm lost in your riddles
Lost in your riddles
But I really want to know
Oh, lost it a little
Don't go, must be a riddle
Don't you know
Oh, I'm lost in your riddles
Lost in your riddles

Where we will go, we'll be lost in the middle
Where we will go, I'll be lost in your riddles
Where we will go, we'll be lost in the middle
Where we will go, I'll be lost in your riddles

Sorry

Sorry for the road that I won't take
For the words that I won't say
For the love that I won't give

Sorry for the heart that I won't show
For the lengths that I won't go
For the life that you won't live

Sorry that I opened up my arms
You would never reach in time before they closed again

You will forget
And I won't remember it
When all I ever did was race in circles
You will forget
And all there's left will be
A faded memory
A dream you woke up from

Sorry for the oath that I won't take
For the vows that I will break
For the role that I won't play

Sorry that I'm raising up my walls
And whenever you reached over
You are thrown back to the start

You will forget
And I won't remember it
When all I ever did was race in circles
You will forget
And all there's left will be
A faded memory
A dream you woke up from

From the colour I would bring
To ending up again
Opening darkness I wanted to hold you back from

Do I Ever

Can’t sit around holding up my guard
Let it all go
Let it all go around
Go in and face the inevitable

Can’t figure out how to play my part
Where do I go?
How do I go around
Go in and make it inhabitable

Now let it all in

Cover up the arm that holds the weight
Raging on too long and all will stay
Unsolved

I let it throw me off my feet
I let it put me on my knees
What do I know
I ought to grow
But do I ever?

Can’t sit around hiding all my scars
Let them all show
Let them all know about
Go in and embrace the inevitable

Now let it all in

Cover up the arm that holds the weight
Raging on too long and all will stay
Unsolved

Take away all I could be
Take all the best of me away with it
I let it
Take away all I could see
Take all the best of me
away with it

I let it throw me off my feet
I let it put me on my knees
What do I know
I ought to grow
But do I ever?
I’ll let it tell me who to be
I’ll let it show me what to see
What do I know
I ought to grow
But do I ever?

Home Again

You got to go
Go stop it or you will be left here
It's coming and it won't be asking
Got nothing when there's
Nobody left in your home again

You got to go
Go stop it and it won't be happening again
Get caught up in it
They'll be asking but don't
Get caught up with the people
Who won't get you home again

So, we're running our own way home
We're running our way

So, we're running our own, we are
We're running our own way home
We're running our own, we are
We're running our own way home

You'll get it all
All coming when you least expect it
If I'd lead the type of life you lead here
I'd lose my heart, my head, my home

You got to go
Go stop it and it won't be happening again
Get caught up in it
They'll be asking but don't
Get caught up with the people
Who won't get you home again

So we're running our own way home
We're running our way
So, we're running our own, we are
We're running our own way home
We're running our own, we are
We're running our own way home

And all of their waves won't bring me down
Not letting my days fade out

We'll run on our own
Their laws won't take us now
We'll run on our own
Their walls, we'll break them

So, we're running our own, we are
We're running our own way home
We're running our own, we are
We're running our own way home
We're running our own, we are
We're running our own way home

We're running our own, we are
We're running our own way home
We're running our own way home
We're running our own way home

We'll run on our own
Home
We'll run on our own
Home

Bridges

Yet another unstable weekend
We bought our own praise with easy goals
And we're off to sell it as the greatest story told

Yet another ungraceful evening
Another man's faith
An easy foe
And we're off to shiver in the face of the unknown

Though we long together for the tables to turn
Though we pray together for the bridges to burn
Still we stay cold

Yet another ungrateful weekday
We're caught in a game where the winner takes all
And we're off to tell it as the greatest story told

Though we long together for the tables to turn
Though we pray together for the bridges to burn
Still we stay cold

We got carried away by it
We got carried away from home
We got carried away by it
We got carried away from home

Uncharted

No one knows just what to say
It's like we're in uncharted territory
No one knows the proper way
It's like the ground has fallen from under me

And all sensible words
All sensible hearts
Oh where do they go
And why do they leave us now

And if I could go back again, I'll go back again
If the worst is happening how does anything work
Now let me please go back again, I'll go back again

No one knows what part to play
It's like we're in uncharted territory
No one knows another way
It's like all grace in life has parted from me

And all sensible words
All sensible souls
Oh where do they go
And why do they leave us now

And all sensible words
All sensible hearts
Keep calling for course
A heading or buoy
Could the end be a start?
All sensible souls
Oh where do they go
And why do they leave us now

All For Nothing

Hurry up now, don't you know that I'm waiting
For the way you will find how to ruin it all
All that you're bending is all that I'm breaking
For the way you will build, is the way you will fall

Is it all we live for?
Now I know I don't get it
When I call it a loss and you call it a win

And I know, that I will be ready
Or I will be dead again
I know in my head, I know in my heart
That I will be better
Than I would've ever been
Or all that we had
Was all for nothing after all

Hurry up now, don't you see that I'm fading
Into older man's grey and oblivion light
Who would I be to forgive and embrace when
When your talk is as low as your head is high

Is it all we live for?
Now I see you don't get it
When you call it a loss and I call it a win

And I know, that I will be ready
Or I will be dead again
I know in my head, I know in my heart
That I will be better
Than I would've ever been
Or all that we had
Was all for nothing after all

And I know, that I will be ready
Or I will be dead again
I know in my head, I know in my heart
That I will be better
Than I would've ever been
Or all that we had

And I know, that I will be ready
Or I will be dead again
It's all in my head, it's all in my heart
And I will be better
Than I would've ever been
Or all that we had

Done With It

So, now the best are right
So, now the best are wrong
Don't, don't, don't, don't you want it
Don't, don't, don't don't you know

That when the blessed arise
They'll be the last to fall

Don't, don't, don't, don't you want it

So you want me gone
You want me gone but now
You know we can't stop right here
We can't stop right here
So no, I won't be gone and out
Oh yeah, you guessed it right there
We can't stop right here now

Oh, I'm done with it

So now the best for last
Don't want the rest to know
Done, done, done what you wanted
Done, done, done what you know

Now we're the last to rise
And we're the last to go
Don't, don't, don't, don't you want it?

So you want me gone
You want me gone but now
You know we can't stop right here
We can't stop right here
So no, I won't be gone and out
Oh yeah, you guessed it right there
We can't stop right here now

Not by a win you're in though
Not by a win you're high
Oh but again you ride
And go, go, out of sight
Not by a win you're in though
Not by a win you're high
Oh, yeah you guessed it right there
We can't stop right here now

Oh, I'm done with it

You wanted all in
You wanted it so

So you want me gone
You want me gone but now
You know we can't stop right here
We can't stop right here
So no, I won't be gone and out
Oh yeah, you guessed it right there
We can't stop right here now

Not by a win you're in though
Not by a win you're high
Oh but again you ride
And go, go, out of sight
Not by a win you're in though
Not by a win you're high
Oh, yeah you guessed it right there
We can't stop right here now

Oh, I'm done with it

Fiji

Whenever the day will break
Another mistake will take hold
Of every inch of an honest state

A hell of a case you'd make
If only the tides weren't so strong
You're letting it in all your darkest ways

Now how does it end?

Not all we're building up is indestructible
But all we're hoping for we'll know how to get it though
Not all we're building up is indestructible
But all we're hoping for we'll know how

To get in a constant phase
Of digging a heart-shaped grave for ourselves
Waste it all away
Inside of a king-sized cage
Enough of the comforts of home
But none of it all fades the bars away

Now how does it end?

Not all we're building up is indestructible
But all we're hoping for we'll know how to get it though
Not all we're building up is indestructible
But all we're hoping for we'll know how to get it

Hold on unless you want to go it alone

What Lies Ahead

Cold and broken down
It's all I knew
I let it corner me in
And hide where my tracks lead

Now I'm waking up
And all I do
Is getting lost in the past
To find where I'd first hear

That I was never gonna be somebody
That I was never gonna feel light come around
And they rise again as I am told that I should see

Red now
And to fear what lies ahead now
But I know that I will
Do everything for you again
I will do everything for you again
And I bet now
You will see that I will burn what I don't need here
And I'll know it's alright, alright, alright

How I faded out
Cause I never knew
That all the thorns in my bed
Were passed down and taught me

That I was never gonna be somebody
That I was never gonna feel light come around
And they rise again as I am told that I should see

What if the years won't come?
It's caught up in my head
What if I'll be outrun?
It haunts me down instead
It has gone one way
It was bound to break
And it all reminds me of a time I
Fooled around but now I'm fighting

Slicer

What do you take me for?
I will never be an open door
I'm the threat in your dreams
The trick up your sleeves
I'm the clod in your veins

What do you blame me for?
We were never seeing soul to soul
I'm the drag in your feet
The guilt that you plead
I'm the wear in your brakes

Then how do we get

Stone cold red hot and
And now we're on like a thunder
Soon all ends go dead
Then how will we get away?

What are you aiming for?
I will never be the one to call
When your heart is in need
the coward in me
Will be all that you face

Why do you say no more?
Was the heaven that I sold you on
Just a trifling daze?
a glorious cage?
And it all was in vain?

Then how do we get

Stone cold red hot and
And now we're on like a thunder
Soon all ends go dead
Then how will we get away?

I deleted
All that I am
Seems to be dead
Don't you waste it

Let Go

All our time we spend together
Then we lose our minds, we're wasting time again
You will never get it, I will never get it going
We will never give (in) but we got to

Let Go
We got to let go
We got to hold on
We got to hold on
We got to let
Go

So this time we reach the limit
And we learn to lie and change our minds again
You will never get it, I will never get it going
We will never give (in) but we got to

Let Go
We got to let go
We got to hold on
We got to hold on
We got to let
Go

I know we'll end it all
I know when we come home, when we come home
We'll waste it
I know we'll end it all
I know when we come home, when we come home
We got to

Let Go
We got to let go
We got to hold on
We got to hold on
We got to let go
We got to let go
We got to hold on
We got to hold on
We got to let go
We got to let go
We got to hold on
We got to hold on

We Are The Young

Take me down the road
Take me where you need me to
Will all their arms
Hold me like they love me?
Calm down, calm down
When all their eyes are on me
Calm down, calm down
When all their eyes are cold
For all the ones holding on
We share the same blood
We are the young

Walk me down the road
Pick me up or tear me down
They'll take it all
Quickly to abandon
Calm down, calm down
When all their eyes are on me
Calm down, calm down
When all their eyes are cold
For all the ones holding on
We share the same blood
We are the young

Is there ever enough?
Is there ever enough?
To go by
For all the ones holding on
We share the same blood
We are the young

Ghosts

No, you will never be all
We were never all right
I was never all yours
You were never all mine

So, we'll take a road of our own
To a way that will lead
To the end we have seen
We will wander on free

No, we will never have an only son in our home
No, we will never have an only son in our home

I know that
We've been fighting like soldiers
We've been living like vultures
We've been hiding like ghosts

But know this
After everything's over
Still together we'll be
In the air that we breathe
And the skies that we see

No, we will never have an only son in our home
No, we will never have an only son in our home

Island

I don't want to blame
I just want to leave this horrid place the way I came
But here we are again

I don't want to wait
For another wave to come and rule another day

I don't want to stay
I just want to wash away this vile and awful taste
But here we are again

Got nothing more to say
Only want to leave it and not seek for it again

And I'll be an island
And the shore where I stand
Can't be reached by more than waves
I told my sharks

That I need an island
For I know the violence
And I'll make the same mistakes
Again

I don't want a flame
I don't want to risk a fire that leaves a toxic waste
But here we are again

And I don't want to play
Only want to breathe again
Be free and let it end

And I'll be an island
And the shore where I stand
Can't be reached by more than waves
I told my sharks

And I need an island
If it turns to violence
Then I swear I'll drift away
I cross my heart

All will in time mend
When the moment is right will the feeling die
Who am I inside then
When I know when I fight all I want is hide and

And I'll be an island
And the shore where I stand
Can't be reached by more than waves
I told my sharks

That I need an island
If it turns to violence
Then I swear I'll drift away
I cross my heart

I know my heart
I sold my heart

I don't want to blame
I just want to leave this horrid place the way I came
But here we are again

Control

No control
How wonderful
How horrible
You see me guessing
Don't you know?

Thoughts explode
Unconjurable
Unstoppable
You see me lacking
Won't you grow?
Won't you

Believe
That even now you'll take hold
That even now you'll beat it
Don't you know?

Broke in two
How wonderful
How vulnerable
You see me laughing
Don't you know?
Don't you

Believe
That even now you'll take hold
That even now you'll beat it
Don't you know?

Breathe in
And even now you'll take hold
And lead it on till the end
Don't you know?

And all that is freedom
And all that enslaves
I'll never believe again

And all that is weakness
And all that is fake
Will never deceive again

Breathe in
And even now you'll take hold
And even now you'll beat it
Don't you know?

Believe
And even now you'll take hold
And even now you'll beat it
Don't you know?

St. Helena

And when the heat is gone
And the fire is out
And a breeze of cold
Air is surrounding all
Where the fools at heart
Fall in truth apart
Stay in lies together

And when the greed is growing
And we're finding out
Who to lay it on
Where to fight it out
How our days were strong
When we spoke as one
Now we mime together

So now we've been around
And we've seen it all
Steady breathing in
And we scream it out
Then we're doing it all over
We hug it out
And we cry together

But as the haze cleared up
And our eyes see all
Then we'll chew it up
Just to spit it out
So you wanted it all
Well you got my bones
For you to hide forever

We're doing it all over
We're doing it all again

And when the heat is gone
Then we'd better hide
In the weekend homes
That we're burning down
Let the flames all grow
Let us breathe the smoke
Till we die together

And then we'll see it
