You got the heavens shouting
The damned are undemanding
The price of entry is just going through the roof
Where's the proof?
Time is too damaged to repair
A generations lowly stare
You'll never make it anywhere this can't be fair
What if you dare?

Batten down the hatches baby
For the breaking storm
Twelve months of voilent weather
But we'll ride the wave together
Just let the water cleanse me
This is final form
Check if the grass is greener
I think i'm torn

And as the angels cried for more
A final wish, an underscore
You see the vultures round the corpse
You plainly swore
This means war

Get your head down
Let your fists come alive
This is my town
Where they come out at night
As they rise, as they fall from my eyes
What a plan to divise as you conjure the lies

I've seen the light
it's only defined by what you ignore
All of the time
I'm ready to bribe anyone i can draw
And i'm telling everybody that you wanted more
And i'm never gonna feel the way I felt before
And i'll say, this night won't last a day

But directing lights, call the acolytes
Tell me what's been going on
Baby there's no time to deny the crime
So we'll gladly carry on
Tell me what we've learned since the ashes burned
Since we stopped the carosel
You promised you would stay
Don't leave me this way

To the western world
To the twisted and bizarre
Got my shoulder chipped
If memory goes that far
To the voilent cause
Never lasted never spared
Always hedging bets
I learned to hide the scars
Stampede

Showing signs that the first in line
Is an afterthought
Building bridges to satisfy
What you're asking for
And it feels too much all this world
And it feels too much all this im imagining

Take a break for a moment
Give yourself time to breath
Better off on your own
Affording a memory
And it feels too much all this world
And it feels too much all this im imagining

Right in front of my eyes
I'll watch the world turn over me
A blissful sight to close the day
So temporary before now its here to stay

Say what you want it's a tragedy
Putting fires out for fun
Say what you want about apathy
I'm not the only one
This is the time in front of me
I'm settling the score
The same rules apply here
The same as before

Feeling trapped and bound on solid ground
Wishing i could comprehend
The meaning of the argument
The fire goes inferno, the sirens ablaze
Thought by now that you would understand
That we're all searching for the promised land

Say what you want it's a tragedy
Putting fires out for fun
Say what you want about apathy
I'm not the only one
This is the time in front of me
I'm settling the score
The same rules apply here
The same as before

Smashing the ground these tears of a clown are free
Lost and found well I need you now for the energy
I guess you're looking at me
The same rules apply here
Just not as they seem.
