Morning alarm, it's time to go, got another day to face Slowly gaining back control underneath the sound of Erase/Replace Feeling alive, it's time to roll, a new adventure calls today A brand new world I've come to know, I'm not afraid to lose my way The blood inside my veins, the beating in my heart Umbrella in the rain, a guide within the dark It's thanks to you I'm seeing 'round the bend It's thanks to you I have more love to send It's thanks to you I've got something more to defend I dream of dreaming again Your acceptance of my flaws, the way you let me show my face How you answer to my calls, the rainclouds have been replaced And our world is a see-saw, a soothing game of give and take In the moment I should fall, little bro, my day you make The sun up in my sky, so warm, so bright, so clear The because to my why, the courage to my fear It's thanks to you I'm seeing 'round the bend It's thanks to you I have more love to send It's thanks to you I've got something more to defend I dream of dreaming again [Synth solo] [Guitar solo] It's thanks to you I'm seeing 'round the bend It's thanks to you I have more love to send It's thanks to you I've got something more to defend I dream of dreaming again I dream of dreaming again

Yesterday a knife was planted in my back Yesterday my train was falling off the track Yesterday the tunnel's end was out of sight Yesterday was meant to be my final fight And today I plant the blade inside the wall And today I stand atop the wreckage tall And today the sunlight liberates my eyes And today I'll throw away my cheap disguise The past is not me The past is not me [Guitar solo] And today I plant the blade inside the wall And today I stand atop the wreckage tall And today the sunlight liberates my eyes And today my hands will hold my rightful prize The past is not me The past is not me The past is not me The past is not me

The bed's so cold today, can't sleep without your touch My mind is racin' too fast If I can find a way, if I'm not askin' too much Can I stop clingin' to the past One year ago tomorrow, we said we could run forever Hand in hand, heart to heart, how can this love fall apart But I have to beg and borrow, to make now out of never Find your love, second chance, make a brand new start This is more than I bargained for, tell me what are you waiting for My arms are wide open and I'm always hopin' I can't stand to look at you hurt yourself the way you do You're always welcome here, put a dam on the river of tears Always fallin', always callin' This house is cold tonight, can't live without you here The world is spinnin' too fast There's no more reason to fight, I'll always hold the fear I've become a resident of the past One year ago today, you told was for life Hand in hand, heart to heart, make a brand new start This is more than I bargained for, tell me what are you waiting for My arms are wide open and I'll never stop hopin' I can't stand to look at you hurt yourself the way you do You have a home right here, please calm this river of tears Always fallin', always callin' Always fallin', always callin' from my memories Always fallin', always callin' Always fallin', always callin' from my memories

Hello, if you can hear me Send a lightning bolt across the sky of a million stars I know that you were hurting And I try my best to carry on with a million scars This is your song, sing it wild and free now This is your song, sing it just for me This is your song, sing it wild and free now This is your song, sing it just for me Hello, if you can see me Replace my face with your very own inside the mirror I know it was before your time And I try my best to carry on despite my fear This is your song, sing it wild and free now This is your song, sing it just for me This is your song, sing it wild and free now This is your song, sing it just for me

You know I used to love you baby, when I was a different man I held you close in times of trouble, wishing you would understand You are all that keeps me goin’, I don’t have no other plan Don’t you see why I cried so much when I found you with a different man All I want is you but do you need me It’s gettin’ so hard to tell why it’s so plain to see I gave you all of me, you gave me none of you I’m so close to cuttin’ you loose, let you play around with your new fool 'Cause he's a different man Now I don’t believe I’m too complicated, I just need someone I can trust Do I have to explain why I’m so frustrated, you’re throwing me right under the bus Make me feel so dead and jaded, let my thoughts just crumble to dust It’s my soul you done degraded, go ahead and leave if you must All I want is you but do you need me It’s gettin’ so hard to tell why it’s so plain to see I gave you all of me, you gave me none of you I’m so close to cuttin’ you loose, let you fuck around with your new fool Now tell me, do you think of me when he’s inside of you, do you Do you think of me All I want is you but do you need me It’s gettin’ so hard to tell why it’s so plain to see I gave you all of me, you gave me none of you I’m so close to cuttin’ you loose, let you play around with your new fool All I want is you but do you need me It’s gettin’ so hard to tell why it’s so plain to see I gave you all of me, you gave me none of you I’m so close to cuttin’ you loose, let you fuck around with your new fool ‘Cause he’s a different man

A wilted flower once in bloom, a ruined city view from my hotel room All I can say in my fragile youth, death's our only truth Twenty-two years is a rather long time when a minute feels like forever stopping on a dime Twenty-two years and I tell you I'm fine, can't you see my smiling face underneath the sunshine Maybe it's wrong but I wish I could fly into forever like a starling without a goodbye Maybe it's wrong but you know what, I like the thought of rollin' down forever's road on my bike Nothing is forever, I got a date with never Nothing is forever Twenty-two years is a very long life when the greatest validation feels like another knife Throw it inside, plant it deep in my back and I deserve to watch my world fade right into black Maybe it's wrong but I wanna be right, and if breaks another heart then I would sleep at night Maybe it's wrong but please forget me when I make my rendezvous with destiny, 'cause Nothing is forever, sever all the tethers Nothing is forever [Synth solo] A wilted flower once in bloom, a ruined city view from my hotel room All I can say in my fragile youth, death's our only truth Nothing is forever, I got a date with never Nothing is forever Nothing is forever, I sever all the tethers Nothing is forever

Here I stand, starin' at myself from miles away Wonderin' how I ended up right here today Such a fool, I was much too blind to ever see Never thinking of a goddamned thing but me Now I burn, I feel the flames a-churnin' in my brain Well this ain't the best time to go insane Just want to fall apart, bandage up my bleeding heart So close yet still so far, here I stand What about my love, did I ever give enough to you Or are you happy that our time is through Just let me burn, you can try to save me if you please You'll only hurt yourself so don't blame me I want to fall apart, stitch up my bleeding heart So close yet still so far, here I stand [Synth solo] Just let me burn, you can try to save me if you please You'll only hurt yourself so don't blame me, don't blame me Just want to fall apart, bandage up my bleeding heart So close yet still so far, here I stand I want to fall apart, stitch up my bleeding heart So close yet still so far, here I stand

My brother was a fallen angel, I made his wings second time My sister was a fallen angel, now her feathers make the sun shine Don't you know I'm a fallen angel, now I'm diggin' deep underground I'm gonna find where they bury the fallen angels Gotta follow the sound, the sound Gotta follow the sound, the sound Down is where I'm home, down is all I know Down is where I'm home, down and down I go My brother was a fallen angel, I thought his wounds would heal with My sister was a fallen angel, and something changed her deep inside Don't you know I'm a fallen angel, hidden under the lost and found I'm gonna find where they bury the fallen angels Gotta follow the sound, the sound Gotta follow the sound, the sound Down is where I'm home, down is all I know Down is where I'm home, down and down I go Down is where I'm home, down so fuckin' low Down is where I'm home, down is where I'm home [Synth solo] [Guitar solo] Down is where I'm home, down is all I know Down is where I'm home, down and down I go Down is where I'm home, down is all I know Down is where I'm home, down is where I'm home Down is where I'm home, down is all I know Down is where I'm home, down and down I go Down is where I'm home, down so fuckin' low Down is where I'm home, down is where I'm home

I've got a secret, and it hides within the deepest reaches of my mind I try to keep it, though now I'm only freakin' out when days go by Sworn to silence, and again my same old violent thoughts are leaking out Through fish-eye lens, the bladed ship, its lines are now obliquing down It's trying to scream when your head belongs to someone else It's trying to breathe when your throat's locked in a dead clam shell It's trying to feel with a white Pickett fence around your heart It's trying to finish something that you'll never start Out of time, it's all in my hands I cry, a mouse of a man I try, fallin' apart just like the sand Out of time, it's all in my head I cry, "when can I be dead" I try, I'm seein' black and red I've got a secret, well I'm at my breaking point and this can't last too long I try to keep it from pryin' eyes, what if their impression's wrong I'm sworn to silence, and I'm shakin' like dying leaf left in the wind Through fish-eye lens, a breakin' heart and melting brain from years of sin [Synth solo] [Guitar solo] Out of time, it's all in my hands I cry, a mouse of a man I try, fallin' apart just like the sand Out of time, it's all in my head I cry, "when can I be dead" I try, I'm seein' black and red [Bass solo]

The only truth is death, all life has a last breath And in between the first and last we shape with shibboleth And in between the first and last we shape with shibboleth The world is ours to tame, but all remains the same And all the while, with pointless style, we play our living game And all the while, with pointless style, we play our living game Nothing is forever, I got a date with never Nothing is forever Nothing is forever, I sever all the tethers Nothing is forever
