Choose A Song Below

Seize the time or it'll seize you
Years tied around your neck
All the things you'll never forget

Pit eras to find the truth
Reckless abandon
Torture and abuse

Anecdotes on foil wrappers
A language paramount
Foreshadowing the curse

Wish I would've climbed to heights so high
The only thing I learned
Was how to live a lie

120 years and sinking fast
Waded in the shallow end
Until it all had passed

Symphonies of summer's end
The breeze and fireflies
Nights wasted on pretend

Shades of gold and amethyst
Not knowing what to feel
About parallels I've missed

Wish I would've known it was do or die
Shackled by ambivalence
As the years passed me by

Say what you will,
petty annoyance,
all I know of time is that it haunts

Push the morphine
keep history alive,
all that matters now is don't flat-line

So say what you will,
petty annoyance,
all I know of time is that it haunts

Push the morphine
keep history alive,
we're all that matters now

You're not a fool for believing
Sometimes things just don't go your way
Just reload, regroup, attack again

You got a shot, you should take it
Don't let this chance just slip away
No regrets, remorse, or prisoners

They'll lie and cheat 'cuz they only
They only care about themselves
Stand your ground, beat your chest, and don't give in

Take your fear and let them feel it
It's about time to push their backs to the wall
Take what they stole from you, reclaim control

I have every right to be here
Don't take that away
Way up on the hill we'll be victorious

Fight on, don't lay your arms down
Take the hill of the heighest height
Prey on those who'd purge all hope
Send your firestorm into the night

Send your firestorm into the night
Send your firestorm into the night

Dressed to appease and to fleece us
Promises, promises
I am done with being bred to bleed

We're being played and we're jaded
The wool on our eyes begins to fall
No apology can save you now

I have every right to be here
Don't take that away
Way up on the hill we'll be victorious

Fight on, don't lay your arms down
Take the hill of the heighest height
Prey on those who'd purge all hope
Send your firestorm into the night

Send your firestorm into the night
Send your firestorm into the night

Fight on, don't lay your arms down
Take the hill of the heighest height
Prey on those who'd purge all hope
Send your firestorm into the night

Send your firestorm into the night
Send your firestorm into the night

I'm like a loaded gun
Why am I the only one
I dream all alone

You never let us soar
How can you say that you're
The wind at my back

If what you say is true
Whoa, how could you live with yourself?

All I can feel is pain
As I spin around the drain

You said we'd be far apart, and to not forget about you
Like I could ever get you out of my head
Your head was a different story

I'm like a loaded gun
Why am I the only one
I dream all alone

You never let us soar
How can you say that you're
The wind at my back

If what you say is true
Whoa, how could you live with yourself?

All I can feel is pain
As I spin around the drain

You said you've been through so much with me
And you don't know how you'd have gone through anything without me
That you love me more than words can express
That honestly if you hadn't met me so early in your life
That we probably would have gotten married
Those words haunt me

I'm like a loaded gun
Why am I the only one
I dream all alone

You never let us soar
How can you say that you're
The wind at my back

If what you say is true
Whoa, how could you live with yourself?

All I can feel is pain
As I spin around the drain

You'll be royalty
Through canvas and eyelids I pray you could see
Don't be wary
You'll find your way

What's expected of you
Is not the only choice,
It's not the only air to breathe

The life that they choose
Soul decay
As lifeless as a wilted paper rose

You'll be royalty
Through canvas and eyelids I pray you could see
Don't be wary
You'll find your way

The scattered pieces
Make up so much more
Than the life that you think you've sewn

But when will they fuse?
In due time
The lock will fall from the door and you'll be free

You'll be royalty
Through canvas and eyelids I pray you could see
Don't be wary
You'll find your way


(instrumental interlude)


You'll be royalty
Through canvas and eyelids I pray you could see
Don't be wary
You'll find your way

You'll be royalty
Through canvas and eyelids I pray you could see
Don't be wary
You'll find your way home

Scattered thoughts, they linger
Dripping sweat right down your face
So question fact or fiction
All eyes are on you now
I'll scream until you crumble
Until you end your lies

If patience is no more
I'll say this one last time
This is your last chance
So make this count

I dream while I lie awake
In spite of the soul you tried to take
But I'm alive

You'll crack before I falter
The truth will set me free
It's not your imagination
The walls are closing in
I collapsed beneath your emotion
But grace gave way to deceit

Patience is no more
There's nowhere left to hide
You're in my sights now
And I'm taking you out

I dream while I lie awake
In spite of the soul you tried to take
But I'm alive

I dream while I lie awake
In spite of the soul you tried to take
But I'm alive

This wolf was not made for a muzzle,
but I’ll wear it for you
and the howls will echo in my stomach
As it turns and I yearn for your love
and nothing else,
Give me your heart and your hand
Let me see those Autumn eyes
Those Autumn eyes
I will wait for you right up until the stars align
Give me a reprieve and promise that we’ll never die

Sing, my desert rose, my star-crossed lover
Paint my face red, do not censor yourself for my sake
Blink, you thrive while I burn to ashes
I can’t walk away, I won’t give up again

Bandages and tourniquets
From trying hard to make it fit
We’re reckless and cannot mix
Secrets pause behind our lips
As they chap and crack and bleed
Refusing to give us what we need
Cheeks will turn we’ll never learn
To mistrust the blackened sky
The blackened sky
Still, I’ll hang and suffocate while I patiently await
Give me a reprieve and promise you won’t let me die

Sing, my desert rose, my star-crossed lover
Paint my face red, do not censor yourself for my sake
Blink, you thrive while I burn to ashes
I can’t walk away, I won’t give up again

Never stop the feeling, no, not at all
I saw the edge but I didn't know I'd fall
I'll defy gravity and rise above your walls
They're not too tall

Sing, my desert rose, my star-crossed lover
Paint my face red, do not censor yourself for my sake
Blink, you thrive while I burn to ashes
I can’t walk away, I won’t give up again

No, I won't lay down
Because you cannot fight for love unless you're standing
Please just take my hand
Blink, you thrive while I burn to ashes
I can’t walk away, I won’t give up again
I won't give up again
I won't give up again

Damn the lights inside
I wanna get away
Gotta get away

Close my tired eyes
A warm breeze for me
I need a breeze for me

Slip into endless slumber
I'd like to dream tonight
I need to dream tonight

Smiling peacefully
Stray away from my problems
I've got too many problems

The serenity of it all
Could it be undone?
I wish it were undone

I'm so tired
So very tired

Hand in the fire
I feel the lick of the flames
There's nowhere I'd rather be
I harbor desire for change

So say goodbye to me now
Strangle your love, let go
Time's cruel, cold, passing by
Kiss me now, make time slow

My wind-blown eyes
You say, please keep them inside
Your reluctant about-face
Oh, how I wish I'd go blind

So walk away from me now
Fight the urge, don't look back
Sticks and stones would heal my bones;
Anything to hear your voice again

I feel the space you left me
I see the void, I am alone

Submerged beneath salty seas,
I'm depth-charged on my way home

Silence deafens just like the
Jet engine that takes you away

Strange, what steals you from me
Will reunite us someday
