Don't let go.
Tonight, where did you go?
Your expression is familiar.

Can you see like a child?
Can you see what I want?
I wanna run through your wicked garden
Heard that's the place to find you
'Cause I'm alive
So alive now
I know the darkness blinds you

Can you see without eyes?
Can you speak without lies?
I wanna drink from your naked fountain
I can drown your sorrows
I'm gonna burn
Burn you to life now
Out of the chains that bind you

Can you see just like a child?
Can you see just what I want?
Can I bring you back to life?
Are you still alive?

Burn, burn, burn
Burn your wicked garden down
Burn, burn, burn
Burn your wicked garden to the ground

Can you feel pain inside?
Can you love?
Can you cry?
I wanna run through your wicked garden
Heard that's the place to find you
But I'm alive
So alive now
I know the darkness blinds you

Can you see just like a child?
Can you see just what I want?
Can I bring you back to life?
Are you still alive?

Burn, burn, burn
Burn your wicked garden down
Burn, burn, burn
Burn your wicked garden to the ground

Yeah!
Yo, you were that foundation
Never gonna be another one, no
I followed, so taken
So conditioned, I could never let go
Then sorrow, then sickness
Then the shock when you flip it on me
So hollow, so vicious
So afraid I couldn’t let myself see

That I could never be held
Back or up no, I hold myself
Check the rep, yep, you know mine well
Forget the rest, let them know my hell
There and back, yet my soul ain’t sell
Kept respect up, the best, they fell
Let the rest be the tale they tell
That I was there saying

In these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie
I can see through
This time I finally let you
Go
Go
Go

Test my will, test my heart
Let me tell you how the odds gonna stack up
Y’all go hard, I go smart
How’s that working out for y’all in the back, huh?
I’ve seen that frustration
Been crossed and lost and told no
And I’ve come back unshaken
Let down and lived and let go

So you can let it be known
I don’t hold back, I hold my own
I can’t be mapped, I can’t be cloned
I can’t C-flat, it ain’t my tone

I can’t fall back, I came too far
Hold myself up and love my scars
Let the bells ring wherever they are
’Cause I was there saying

In these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie
I can see through
This time I finally let you go
(Go)
(Go)
(Go)
(Go)
(Go)

No, you can tell ’em all now
I don’t back up, I don’t back down
I don’t fold up and I don’t bow
I don’t roll over, don’t know how
I don’t care where the enemies are
Can’t be stopped, all I know, go hard
Won’t forget how I got this far
For every time saying

In these promises broken
Deep below
Each word gets lost in the echo
So one last lie
I can see through
This time I finally let you
(Go)
Go
(Go)
Go
(Go)
Go
(Go)

Go
(Go)
Go
(Go)
Go
(Go)
Go

I push my fingers into my eyes...
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache...
But it's made of all the things I have to take...
Jesus it never ends, it works its way inside...
If the pain goes on...
Aaaaaaah!

I have screamed until my veins collapsed
I waited as my time's elapsed
Now all I do is live with so much hate
I've wished for this, I've b****ed at that
I've left behind this little fact
You cannot kill what you did not create
Now,I've gotta say what I've gotta say
And then I swear I'll go away
But I can't promise you'll enjoy the noise
I guess I'll save the best for last
My future seems like one big past
You're left with me 'cause you left me no choice

I push my fingers into my eyes
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
If the pain goes on
I'm not gonna make it

Put me back together
Or separate the skin from bone
Leave me all the pieces
Then you can leave me alone
Tell me the reality
Is better than the dream
But I found out the hard way
Nothing is what it seems

I push my fingers into my eyes
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
But it's made of all the things I have to take
Jesus, it never ends it works its way inside
If the pain goes on, I'm not gonna make it

All I've got
All I've got is insane!
All I've got
All I've got is insane!
All I've got!
All I've got is insane!
All I've got!
All I've got is insane!

I push my fingers into my eyes
It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache
But it's made of all
The things I have to take
Jesus, it never ends
It works it's way inside
If the pain goes on
I'm not gonna make it!

We're the day birds
Deciding to fly against the sky
Within our dreams we all wake up
To kiss the ones who are born to die

We're the greying herds
Hurting each the other with our lives
Within our dreams we all wake up
To kiss the ones who are born, born to die (
The drum fish, they beached themselves in The blackbirds, they fell in thousands from the sky
Their red wings, streaming down from the higher seas
Deflected, by the ground they crowned the sun

They crowned the sun (They crowned the sun (But I believe that they are free
When their time was done (They were drowned by the only One (But I believe that they are free, washed by the sun

Our statues, the soaring edifice of our times
Detracted, from the ways of the wise
The future, will view all history as crime
So father, tell us when is the time to rise

They crowned the sun (They crowned the sun (But I believe that they are free
When their time was done (They were drowned by the only One (But I believe that they are free



We're the day birds

Everything's so blurry
And everyone's so fake
And everybody's empty
And everything is so messed up
Preoccupied without you
I cannot live at all
My whole world surrounds you
I stumble, then I crawl

You could be my someone
You could be my scene
You know that I'll protect you
From all of the obscene
I wonder what you're doin'
Imagine where you are
There's oceans in between us
But that's not very far

Can you take it all away?
Can you take it all away?
Well, you shoved it in my face
This pain you gave to me
Can you take it all away?
Can you take it all away?
Well, you shoved it in my face

Everyone is changing
There's no one left that's real
So make up your own ending
And let me know just how you feel
'Cause I am lost without you
I cannot live at all
My whole world surrounds you
I stumble, then I crawl

You could be my someone
You could be my scene
You know that I will save you
From all of the unclean
I wonder what you're doing
I wonder where you are
There's oceans in between us
But that's not very far

Can you take it all away
Can you take it all away
Well, you shoved it in my face
This pain you gave to me
Can you take it all away
Can you take it all away
Well, you shoved it in my face
This pain you gave to me

Oh
Nobody told me what you thought
Nobody told me what to say
Everyone showed you where to turn
Told you when to run away
Nobody told you where to hide
Nobody told you what to say
Everyone showed you where to turn
Showed you when to run away

Can you take it all away?
Can you take it all away?
Well, you shoved it in my face
This pain you gave to me

Can you take it all away?
Can you take it all away?
Well, you shoved it in my face
This pain you gave to me

No!
This pain you gave to me

Can you take it all?
Take it all away
This pain you gave to me
Take it all away
This pain you gave to me
Take it all away
This pain you gave to me

Cut my life into pieces
This is my last resort
Suffocation, no breathing
Don't give a f*** if I cut my arm bleeding

This is my last resort

Cut my life into pieces
I've reached my last resort
Suffocation, no breathing
Don't give a f*** if I cut my arm bleeding
Do you even care if I die bleeding?

Would it be wrong, would it be right
If I took my life tonight?
Chances are that I might
Mutilation out of sight
And I'm contemplating suicide

'Cause I'm losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
Losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine

I never realized I was spread too thin
Till it was too late and I was empty within
Hungry, feeding on chaos and living in sin
Downward spiral, where do I begin?

It all started when I lost my mother
No love for myself and no love for another
Searching to find a love upon a higher level
Finding nothing but questions and devils

'Cause I'm losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
Losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine

Nothing's alright, nothing is fine
I'm running and I'm crying
I'm crying, I'm crying
I'm crying, I'm crying

I can't go on living this way

Cut my life into pieces
This is my last resort
Suffocation, no breathing
Don't give a f*** if I cut my arm bleeding

Would it be wrong, would it be right
If I took my life tonight?
Chances are that I might
Mutilation out of sight
And I'm contemplating suicide

'Cause I'm losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
Losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine

Nothing's alright, nothing is fine
I'm running and I'm crying
I can't go on living this way
Can't go on living this way
Nothing's all right

I dig my toes into the sand
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind, pretend that I am weightless
And in this moment I am happy
Happy

I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were, here

I lay my head onto the sand
The sky resembles a back-lit canopy with holes punched in it
I'm counting UFO's, I signal them with my lighter
And in this moment I am happy
Happy

I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were, here
Wish you were here

The world's a rollercoaster
And I am not strapped in
Maybe I should hold with care
But my hands are busy in the air, saying

I wish you were here
I wish you were
I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were, here
Wish you were here

this is not right, the shallow sight of the dutiful
i love them all cuz they're so ugly and beautiful
immutable and given to fits, you avarice is cavernous
it's clear for me to see that you were made for this
we've been blessed by the angel of success and stress
and this is nothing compared to what we're gonna get
i'm breaking out of this coast to coastal
in five ticks i'm going global and postal

pace yourself, brace yourself
you've been so good to me so just consider this a payback
you're never gonna believe what you see
this is a new day and you're the big winner

before my eyes, life passed me by, i found myself
a veil has been pulled away and things look big today

it's like a riddle designed to make you feel little
and lost and always pulling back to the middle
your mind is victimized, baptized, chastised, ostracized
being cool is a compromise.
cue the backlash, heaven helps the ones who rehash
and nevaloutionaries looking through your old trash
i'm going out of my way to put you back on the shelf
you must contain yourself and entertain yourself


but all is not lost, given the cost you gotta have a firm plan
the way is littered with shams and also rans running to fall
and done in with a wrecking ball, who never question anything at all this conciousness is sublime
and we are numbed by the passage of time,
these motherf***ers are suckers, it's a crime
we are a blight of bottled water and cannon fodder
you need an 18 year old wife and a 19 year old daughter

pace yourself brace yourself
you've been so good to me so just consider this a payback
you're never gonna believe what you see

In my eyes
Indisposed
In disguise as no one knows
Hides the face
Lies the snake
The sun in my disgrace
Boiling heat
Summer Stench
'Neath the black the sky looks dead
Call my name through the cream
And I'll hear you scream again

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come [x4]

Stuttering
Cold and damp
Steal the warm wind tired friend
Times are gone for honest men
Sometimes far too long for snakes
In my sh***
Walking sleep
In my youth I pray to keep
Heaven send hell away
No one sings like you any more

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come

Won't you come (Black hole sun, black hole sun) [x4]

Hang my head
Drown my fear
Till you all just disappear

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come

Black hole sun
Won't you come
And wash away the rain
Black hole sun
Won't you come
Won't you come (Black hole sun, Black hole sun) [x7].

I, I'm a one-way motorway
I'm a road that drives away and follows you back home
I, I'm a street light shining
I'm a white light blinding bright and burning off and on
Uh huh uh

It's times like these you learn to live again
It's times like these you give and give again
It's times like these you learn to love again
It's times like these, time and time again

I, I'm a new day rising
I'm a brand new sky to hang the stars upon tonight
I, I'm a little divided
Do I stay or run away and leave it all behind?
Uh huh uh

It's times like these you learn to live again
It's times like these you give and give again
It's times like these you learn to love again
It's times like these, time and time again
Ooh...

Uh huh uh
Uh huh uh

It's times like these you learn to live again
It's times like these you give and give again
It's times like these you learn to love again

It's times like these you learn to love again
It's times like these, time and time again

When you come to a fork in the road,
You can almost taste it
In the knowing which way to go, it's not being tested

All alone you try to take it, to fake it
And there's a road less traveled taken, or forsaken

Now it's up to you, the path that you choose
Gotta do something different now
It's all the same, no one to blame
Gotta do something different now

So you head down the road that you chose,
Just keep pushing forward
And the window is trying to close, just to shut you out

And alone you try to take it, to fake it
And there's the road less traveled taken, or forsaken

Now it's up to you, the path that you choose
Gotta do something different now
It's all the same, no one to blame
Gotta do something different now

(Solo)

Something different...

It's up to you, the path that you choose
Gotta do something different now
It's all the same, no one to blame
Gotta do something different now
It's up to you, the path that you choose
Gotta do something different

Gotta do something different now...

We're bleeding over gold that's black
Honesty, integrity, things you lack
Leading the sheep
All along believers
Now know that they were wrong
We!
We know!
About!
All your f***ing lies!
And now!
We want!
To hear the truth!
Moment of truth
Leave behind your paper trail
You're a rat
We can see your tail
Questioning you about all your lies
Remove your spine
You run and hide
It's the moment of truth

Son, she said, have I got a little story for you
What you thought was your daddy was nothin' but a
While you were sittin' home alone at age thirteen
Your real daddy was dyin'

She said I'm ready for you

Well, of course, there is
You're still alive, she said
Oh, and do I deserve to be?
Is that the question?
And if so, if so, who answers? who answers?

I, oh, I'm still alive
