Song Lyrics

It's Time

So this is what you meant
When you said that you were spent
And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit, right to the top
Don't hold back
Packing my bags and giving the Academy a rain check

I don't ever want to let you down
I don't ever want to leave this town
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

So this is where you fell
And I am left to sell
The path to heaven runs through miles of clouded hell right to the top
Don't look back
Turning to rags and giving the commodities a rain check

I don't ever want to let you down
I don't ever want to leave this town
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

This road never looked so lonely
This house doesn't burn down slowly
To ashes
To ashes

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am


Natural


Will you hold the line, when every one of them has given up and given in, tell me
In this house of mine
Nothing ever comes without a consequence or cost tell me
Will the stars align
Will heaven step in will it save us from our sin, will it?
‘Cause this house of mine stands strong

That's the price you pay
Leave behind your heart and cast away
Just another product of today
Rather be the hunter than the prey

And you are standing on the edge face up
‘Cause you’re a natural
A beating heart of stone
You gotta be so cold
To make it in this world
Yeah you’re a natural
Living your life cutthroat
You gotta be so cold
Yeah you’re a natural

Will somebody let me see the light within the dark trees shadowing
What’s happenin?
Looking through the glass find the wrong within the past knowing
We are youth
Cut until it bleeds inside a world without the peace, face it.

A bit of the truth, the truth

That's the price you pay
Leave behind your heart and cast away

Just another product of today
Rather be the hunter than the prey

And you are standing on the edge face up
‘Cause you’re a natural
A beating heart of stone
You gotta be so cold
To make it in this world
Yeah you’re a natural
Living your life cutthroat
You gotta be so cold
Yeah you’re a natural

Deep inside me
I’m fading to black I’m fading
Took an oath by the blood of my hand, won’t break it
I can taste it the end is upon us I swear
gonna make it
I’m gonna make it

Natural
A beating heart of stone
You gotta be so cold
To make it in this world
Yeah you’re a natural
Living your life cutthroat
You gotta be so cold
Yeah you’re a natural


Boomerang


How many lies do we have to tell?
To keep from saying that I wish you well

How many times I said I’m moving on
How many times that false alarm goes off, goes off
I know I’ll see you tomorrow

‘Cause I’m bad at letting you go, letting you go, letting you go, letting you go
Moving on, moving on, moving on, moving on
I’m ready to go, ready to go
Ready to throw, ready to throw
You’re my boomerang, boomerang
You’re my boomerang, boomerang

How many tears do we have to cry?
How many sleepless lonely nights?
To work it out is it worth it now

Should we go ahead or should we turn around
I know I’ll see you tomorrow

‘Cause I’m bad at letting you go, letting you go, letting you go, letting you go
Moving on, moving on, moving on, moving on
I’m ready to go, ready to go
Ready to throw, ready to throw
You’re my boomerang, boomerang
You’re my boomerang, boomerang

Just because it isn’t easy doesn't mean that it is wrong
Everything that we have been working on, working on so long

You’re my boomerang, boomerang
You’re my boomerang, boomerang
You’re my boomerang, boomerang
You’re my boomerang, boomerang

Letting you go, letting you go, letting you go, letting you go
Moving on, moving on, moving on, moving on
I’m ready to go, ready to go
Ready to throw, ready to throw

You’re my boomerang, boomerang
You’re my boomerang, boomerang

Letting you go, letting you go, letting you go, letting you go
Moving on, moving on, moving on, moving on
I’m ready to go, ready to go
Ready to throw, ready to throw
You’re my boomerang, boomerang
You’re my boomerang, boomerang


Machine


All of my life
I’ve been sitting at the table
Watching them kids their living in a fable Looks, luck, money and never left a’wishin
But now it’s about time to raise up and petition

All of my life
I’ve been sitting at the table
Watching them kids living in a fable
Looks, luck, money and never left a’wishin
But now it’s about time to stand up and petition

Cause I’ve been wondering
When you’re gonna see I’m not for sale
I’ve been questioning
When you’re gonna see I’m not a part of your machine
Not a part of your machine

I’m not scared of what you’re gonna tell me
No I’m not scared of the beast in the belly
Fill my cup with endless ambition
And paint this town with my very own vision

I’m not scared of what you’re gonna tell me
And I’m not scared of the beast in the belly
Fill my cup with endless ambition
And paint this town with my very own vision

Cause I’ve been wondering
When you’re gonna see I’m not for sale
I’ve been questioning
When you’re gonna see I’m not a part of your machine
Not a part of your machine

I am the machine
I am the machine

Cause I’ve been wondering
When you gonna see I’m not for sale
I’ve been questioning
When you’re gonna see I’m not a part of your machine
Not a part of your machine

Cause I’ve been wondering
When you’re gonna see I’m not for sale
I’ve been questioning
When you’re gonna see I’m not a part of your machine
Not a part of your machine

I am the machine


Cool Out


Just before I go
Yes I know that I’m losing control and
I want to take things slow, put my mind in cruise control I know I’m always pacing
And I blame it on the pressure I’m facing
I want to take things slow, put my mind in cruise control

Standing on your front porch saying don't go
You were looking at me wild saying just go home and
Cool out, baby I don't think I’m the one for you
So just, cool out, baby I don't think I’m the one for you
So cool out, stay high, stay fresh, play nice
And just, cool out, baby I don't think I’m the one for you
So cool out

You’re always saying that you read my sign and,
Always wishing that I take the time but,
You know that's not my speed
Only believe what I can see
I live my life in black and white
I know that's not what you would like
That's all I know, I put my mind in cruise control

Standing on your front porch saying don't go
You were looking at me wild saying just go home
Cool out, baby I don't think I’m the one for you
So just cool out, baby I don't think I’m the one for you
So cool out, stay high, stay fresh, play nice
And just, cool out, baby I don't think I’m the one for you
So cool out
So cool out

All the things that you detest in me
They keep you coming back for more you see
We make each other get a bit crazy
But you will always be a part of me

Cool out, baby I don't think I’m the one for you
So just, cool out, baby I don't think I’m the one for you
So cool out, stay high, stay fresh, play nice
And just, cool out, baby I don't think I’m the one for you
So cool out
So cool out
Cool out
So cool out


Bad Liar


Oh hush my dear, it’s been a difficult year And terrors don’t prey on innocent victims Trust me darlin’, trust me darlin’
It’s been a loveless year
I’m a man of three fears
Integrity, faith and crocodile tears
Trust me darlin’, trust me darlin’
So look me in the eyes Tell me what you see Perfect paradise Tearing at the seams
I wish I could escape it I don’t want to fake it I wish I could erase it
Make your heart believe

But I’m a bad liar Bad liar
Now you know
Now you know
I’m a bad liar
Bad liar
Now you know
You’re free to go

Did all my dreams never mean one thing
Does happiness lie in a diamond ring
Oh I’ve been asking, for
Oh I’ve been asking, for problems, problems, problems

I wage my war, on the world inside
I take my gun to the enemy's side
Oh I’ve been asking for (trust me darlin’)
Oh I’ve been asking (trust me darlin’), for problems, problems, problems

So look me in the eyes
Tell me what you see
Perfect paradise
Tearing at the seams
I wish I could escape it
I don’t want to fake it
I wish I could erase it
Make your heart believe

But I’m a bad liar
Bad liar
Now you know
Now you know
I’m a bad liar
Bad liar
Now you know
You’re free to go

I can’t breathe
I can’t be
I can’t be what you want me to be
Believe me this one time, believe me

I’m a bad liar
Bad liar
Now you know
Now you know
I’m a bad liar
Bad liar
Now you know
You’re free to go

Please believe me
Please believe me


West Coast


One more day we’ll spend together
Let your eyes look up upon me for the better
Oh I know I’m worse for weather
But my love I won’t give up
Spend my days cursing my soul
Wishing I could paint my scars and make me whole
Oh I know I could be better
Oh my love I won’t give up

I ain’t no superman, I ain’t no holy ghost
I’m just the one that keeps you up at night you love the most
I’ll be your strong man, I’ll be your west coast
I’ll be the sun, I’ll be the waves, I’ll be the one you love the most

I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be your west coast honey
I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be your west coast honey

I’ll change my ways if you would stay
And all your tears you have cried will go away
Oh just grant me one more day
Oh my love please don't give up
I see the devil at my door
I see the future of the ones I’ve ignored
I guess I was born to be at war
And my love I won’t give up
So my love please don't give up

I ain’t no superman, I ain’t no holy ghost
I’m just the one that keeps you up at night you love the most
I’ll be your strong man, I’ll be your west coast
I’ll be the sun, I’ll be the waves, I’ll be the one you love the most

I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be your west coast honey
I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be your west coast honey
I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be your west coast honey
I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be your west coast honey

Gonna give you that feeling Gonna give you that feeling


Zero


I find it hard to say the things I want to say the most
Find a little bit of steady as I get close
Find a balance in the middle of the chaos
Send me low send me high send me never demigod
I remember walking in the cold of November
Hoping that I make it to the end of December
27 years and the end on my mind
But holding to the thought of another time
But looking to the ways of the ones before me
Looking for the path of the young and lonely
I don’t want to hear about what to do
I don’t want to do it just to do it for you

Hello, hello let me tell what it’s like to be a zero, zero
Let me show you what it’s like to always feel, feel
Like I’m empty and there’s nothing really real, real
I’m looking for a way out

Hello, hello let me tell what it’s like to be a zero, zero
Let me show you what it’s like to never feel, feel
Like I’m good enough for anything that’s real, real
I’m looking for a way out

I find it hard to tell you how I want to run away
I understand it always makes you feel a certain way
I find a balance in the middle of the chaos
Send me up send me down
Send me never demigod

I remember walking in the heat of the summer
Wide eyed one with a mind full of wonder
27 years and I’ve nothing to show
Falling from the dove to the dark of the crow
Looking to the ways of the ones before me
Looking for a path of the young and lonely
I don’t want to hear about what to do
I don’t want to do it just to do it for you

Hello, hello let me tell what it’s like to be a zero, zero
Let me show you what it’s like to always feel, feel
Like I’m empty and there’s nothing really real, real
I’m looking for a way out

Hello, hello let me tell what it’s like to be a zero, zero
Let me show you what it’s like to never feel, feel
Like I’m good enough for anything that’s real, real
I’m looking for a way out
Let me tell you bout it
Let me tell you bout it

Maybe you’re the same as me

Let me tell you bout it
Let me tell you bout it

They say the truth will set you free

Hello, hello let me tell what it’s like to be a zero, zero
Let me show you what it’s like to always feel, feel
Like I’m empty and there’s nothing really real, real
I’m looking for a way out

Hello, hello let me tell what it’s like to be a zero, zero
Let me show you what it’s like to never feel, feel
Like I’m good enough for anything that’s real, real
I’m looking for a way out


Bullet in a Gun


The roman king, the Romulus, the precipice born to change
The final days, the last embrace Augustus, Nero taking names
I’m high then I’m low, low stop then
I go, go bipolar
Oh, oh yes then I’m no, no
My time will come
I promise that
Pull the trigger back, back

Bullet in a gun
But in the end my time will come
Like a bullet in a gun
Blood, sweat, and tears to be the one
Bullet in a gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun
Bullet in a gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun
Bullet in a gun

To make a name you pay the price
You give your life no other way
The devils deal it comes around
To wear the crown
Rise up from the ground

I’m high then I’m low, low stop then
I go, go bipolar
Oh, oh yes then I’m no, no
My time will come
I promise that
Pull the trigger back, back

Bullet in a gun
but in the end my time will come
Like a bullet in a gun
Blood, sweat, and tears to be the one
Bullet in a gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun
Bullet in a gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun
Bullet in a

How many voices go unheard
How many lessons never learned
How many artists fear the light, fear the pain, go insane, lose your mind, lose yourself
(You only care about fame and wealth)
Sellout, sellout, sellout

Bullet in a gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun
But in the end my time will come
Like a Bullet in a gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun
Blood, sweat, and tears to be the one
Bullet in a gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun
Bullet in a gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun
Bullet in a

Stuck


Time goes by and still I am stuck on you
Yeah time goes by and still I am stuck on you, you

I’ve been afraid don’t wanna fade out of my body
I’ve been astray, barely awake, floating above me
Covered in grey what can I say, I’ve been a zombie
I’m feeling like I’ve been locked in a grave

You were the laugh, you were the life, you were the party
You were the brave, I was the weak, you were the army
You were the faith, you were the truth, I was the sorry
I’m feeling like you’ve been taken away

You were my one, you were my one
When all has been said, all has been done
You were my one, you were my one
Now I am left reaching above me

Time goes by and still I am stuck on you, you
Time goes by and still I am stuck on you, you

Why did you leave, why did you go leaving me lonely?
Didn’t you know you were the home, you were the only
Where did you go, where did you go, where did you go?
Come back to me

You were my one, you were my one When all has been said, all has been done You were my one, you were my one Now I am left reaching above me
Time goes by and still I am stuck on you, you Yeah time goes by and still I am stuck on you, you
Time goes by and still I am stuck on you, you
Yeah time goes by and still I am stuck on you, stuck on you
As time goes by, as time goes by
Time goes by and still I am stuck on you, you Time goes by and still I am stuck on you, you


Love


It’s been a long time coming, coming
Seeming like we’ve all been running, running
Feeling like the wild west gunnin’ gunnin’
Listen to our elders shunning shunning
Flipping on the news beat talking talking
All about the problems, shocking, shocking
We put on our headphones, walking, walking
We put on our headphones

Where did we all go wrong?
Love, love, love
La la la love, love, love
La la la love, love, love
La la la love, love, love
Where did we all,
Where did we all go wrong?

All we see is faces color, color
All the other races other, other
Why can’t you just be my brother, brother
We don’t have to kill one another
Kill one another

All around the world
We are one
We are one
All around the world
We are one

So where did we all go wrong?
Love, love, love
La la la love, love, love
La la la love, love, love
La la la love, love, love Where did we all,
Where did we all go wrong?

Love, love, love
It’s darkest before the dawn
Love is our only hope
Where did we all,
Where did we all go wrong?

We got the same blood, blood
We got the same blood
But will it be enough, ‘nough
Will it be enough?

We got the same heart beat
We’re living for the same dream
We got the same blood stream
Where did we all go wrong?

Where did we all,
Where did we all go wrong?
Love, love, love
It’s darkest before the dawn
Love, love, love
Love is our only hope
Where did we all,
Where did we all go wrong?

Where did we all, where did we all
Where did we all, where did we all
Where did we all, where did we all
Where did we all,
Where did we all go wrong?

Where did we all, where did we all
Where did we all, where did we all
Where did we all, where did we all
Where did we all,
Where did we all go wrong?


Birds


Two hearts
One valve,
Pumping the blood, we were the flood, we were the body and
Two lives
One life
Sticking it out, letting you down, making it right

Seasons they will change, life will make you grow, dreams will make you cry, cry, cry
Everything is temporary, everything will slide, love will never die, die, die

I know that birds fly in different directions
I hope to see you again

Sunsets,
Sunrises,
Living the dream, watching the leaves, changing the seasons
Some nights
I think of you
Reliving the past, wishing it’d last, wishing and dreaming
Seasons they will change, life will make you grow, death can make you hard, hard, hard
Everything is temporary, everything will slide, love will never die, die, die

I know that birds fly in different directions
I hope to see you again
Birds fly in different directions
So fly high, so fly high

When the moon is looking down
Shining light upon your ground
I’m flying up to let you see
That the shadow cast is me

I know that birds fly in different directions
I hope to see you again
Birds fly in different directions
So fly high, so fly high
So fly high, so fly high
So fly high, so fly high


Burn Out


Patience’s only gets you so far
Blood will get you further
Pain will only make your heart hard, tossed in fury’s weather
Innocence is beautiful to see won’t you box it up for me, for me

Oh, give me strength and give me peace
If anyone’s out there won't you hear me?
Its just another downpour don't let it get the best of you
It’s only up from the floor light everything inside of you
Don't burn out don't burn out on me
Don't burn out don't burn out on me

Sadness is my enemy I fear time will age him gently
Walking by my side for all these years seems that we’ve grown friendly
Happiness is beautiful to see won’t you box it up for me, for me

Oh, give me strength and give me peace
If anyone’s out there won’t you hear me?
Its just another downpour don't let it get the best of you
It’s only up from the floor light everything inside of you
Don't burn out don't burn out on me
Don't burn out don't burn out on me

It’s just another downpour
It’s just another downpour

I wont give up

Its just another downpour don't let it get the best of you
It’s only up from the floor light everything inside of you
I don't wanna let you go
I don't wanna let you go
Don't burn out don't burn out on me
I don't wanna let you go
I don't wanna let you go
Don't burn out don't burn out on me


Real Life


She says that the world is a broken mess
And it’s always on her mind
She cries at the news when the shots ring out
Every single time

And no, I cannot fix it
No I cannot make it stop

So I said hey, turn your phone off
Won’t you look me in my eye
Can’t we live that real life, real life
Hey turn your phone off
Won’t you look me in my eye
Can’t we live that real life, real life

She prays on her knees as the towers fall
To a god she does not know
She’s begging him to stop the mess
As the Boston bombs will blow

She says how can I ever believe
In something that would step aside and watch
And I got no words to say
‘Cause I think I lost my faith
But I fake it for the day, oh everything will be okay

And no, I cannot fix it
No I cannot make it stop

So I said hey, turn your phone off
Won’t you look me in my eye
Can’t we live that real life, real life
Hey, turn your phone off
Won’t you look me in my eye
Can’t we live that real life, real life

I wish I had the answers
Something you could hold to
The only thing that’s real to me
Is you

Turn your phone off
Won’t you look me in my eye
Can’t we live that real life, real life
Hey, turn your phone off
Won’t you look me in my eye
Can’t we live that real life, real life

Real life, real life
Real life, real life
