I tear on the leash That keeps me contained and controlled Let me go I want to break free And bite my way out of this hole ONE LAST HOPE TO RISE AND BREAK AWAY ABOVE THE FADED LINE WAY BEYOND THE TIES THAT BIND THIS I KNOW THE RISK IS WORTH THE GAIN IT�S WORTH THE SACRIFICE WAY BEYOND THE TIES THAT BIND I run but the chains Pull me right back to the floor You control I rattle the cage I won�t be your slave anymore ONE LAST HOPE TO RISE AND BREAK AWAY ABOVE THE FADED LINE WAY BEYOND THE TIES THAT BIND THIS I KNOW THE RISK IS WORTH THE GAIN IT�S WORTH THE SACRIFICE WAY BEYOND THE TIES THAT BIND You broke me into pieces Don�t tell me what to be Damn you all, I'm gonna find my way ONE LAST HOPE TO RISE AND BREAK AWAY ABOVE THE FADED LINE WAY BEYOND THE TIES THAT BIND THIS I KNOW THE RISK IS WORTH THE GAIN IT�S WORTH THE SACRIFICE WAY BEYOND THE TIES THAT BIND

Hey
Tore away the veil of weakness
The enemy now lies beneath us
I think we're safe

Hey
Won't be held down any longer
No disgrace and no dishonor
Keep us chained

(Chorus)
There's nothing we should have to fear
It's alright
We've come to life
We'll never shed another tear
It's alright
We've come to life

Hey
The bulletproof are so resilient
To every fool with an opinion
They never break

By the way
We scream to find a reason
Never doubt or stop believing
And escape

(Chorus)
Now wicked tongues can speak
And rewrite history
But you can't keep the truth contained
And like the song was sung
Just realize we're one
And don't forget were here to stay

(Chorus)

Against the sky
Streams of light
Call out to me and you
We leave as one
We've just begun
To find the solace we're due
This is the life we must choose

We will make a brand new start
From the pieces torn apart
The break of day is before us
Cast your sorrows to the wind
Let the highway, take us in
As we escape the disorder

This desert road
That we call home
This is our destiny
We chase the setting sun
As we outrun a life of agony
God how we ache to be free

We will make a brand new start
From the pieces torn apart
The break of day is before us
Cast your sorrows to the wind
Let the highway, take us in
As we escape the disorder

-Solo-

We will make a brand new start
From the pieces torn apart
The break of day is before us
Cast your sorrows to the wind
Let the highway, take us in
As we escape the disorder

We'll make our way
We'll make our way
We'll make our way
We'll make our way

I twist and turn
In the darkest space
Can't find my worth
As I numb the pain

Glass to the sky
With a blacktooth grin
This whiskey smile
Takes me down again

I'm cold and I'm so afraid
That I'm too weak and I can't change

(Chorus)
I've been buried alive and
I don't want to be here anymore
Reached out a thousand times for
A hand to pull me from below
I've been buried alive in a world
Of constant sorrow
Reach down tonight set me free...
Save tomorrow

Another shot
Slip into the haze
Another night
Soaked in my disgrace

Toast to the lie
I'll raise my glass and run
A wasted life
What have I become?

(Chorus)
Save Tomorrow
Save Tomorrow

Let me breath again
Show me where I begin
To find the will to change
Before I lose everything

(Chorus)
Reach down tonight set me free
And I will follow

As I peel away
All the years of pain
I've discovered what's been all along
You were so right
I was so wrong

Every shooting star
They all fall so hard
They all fade like a played out song
Now is the time
Before all is lost

I'm coming home
(I'm coming home)
I'm coming home
(I'm coming home)

So I'm coming home
Lost on a road I don't belong
I rest my song
I'm so alone
Far from the streets I call my own
I'm coming home

Rushing back to me
As the city sleeps
So afraid of what I will find
Memories they haunt
From deep inside

Every broken man
Comes to understand
That he'll never find paradise
When all that he wants
Was there all the time

I'm coming home
(I'm coming home)
I'm coming home
(I'm coming home)

So I'm coming home
Lost on a road I don't belong
I rest my song
I'm so alone
Far from the streets I called my own

So I'm coming home
Back to a world left long ago
And now I know
I'm coming home
I'll find my way back
I'm letting go
I'm coming home

We've come to find
What we take for granted
Keeps us alive in the end
So don't let time
Leave you empty-handed
Reach out tonight and make amends

So I'm coming home
Back to the place where I belong
I'll rest my song
I'm so alone
Far from the streets I call my own

So I'm coming home
Back to a world left long ago
Now I know
I'm coming home
I'll find my way back
I'm coming home

I'm coming home
(I'm coming home)
I'm coming home
(I'm coming home)

[Verse 1: Mark Tremonti]
Now is the end of time, a fool and his legacy are gone
His pride found another way to make sure it all went wrong
Awake in a new day, our fears have come to pass
And this time they’re gonna last
This time they’re gonna last

[Break: Mark Tremonti & Myles Kennedy]
Don’t let me drown
Don’t let me drown

[Refrain: Mark Tremonti & Myles Kennedy]
Now all of the fields are burning, it blocks out the sun
I see all the water rising to drown everyone

[Verse 2: Mark Tremonti]
This is the season we tear our rivals down
This circle of tyrants will end us all right now
The earth has provided the means to burn it down
Well, don’t you see it now?
Well, don’t you see it now?

[Break: Mark Tremonti & Myles Kennedy]
Don’t let me drown
Don’t let me drown

[Refrain: Mark Tremonti & Myles Kennedy]
Now all of the fields are burning, it blocks out the sun
I see all the water rising to drown everyone
This is tomorrow's way to end our days
Watch as the clouds they gather now to wash us away

[Bridge: Myles Kennedy]
Water is rising coming to wash it all away
There’s no denying we were so wrong
Water is rising coming to wash the filth away
There’s no denying we are so
Lost

[Bridge: Myles Kennedy]
Staring down the end of time
Every fear is realized
Crying out is much too late
There’s nothing we can do to save
For the time has come

[Chorus: Mark Tremonti & Myles Kennedy]
Now all of the fields are burning, it blocks out the sun
I see all the water rising to drown everyone
This is tomorrow's way to end our days
Watch as the clouds they gather now to wash us away

[Outro: Mark Tremonti]
At the end of days
The end of days

The willow it weeps today
A breeze from the distance
Is calling your name
Unfurl your black wings and wait
Across the horizon’s
Coming to sweep you away
It’s coming to sweep you away

Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird fly away
May you never be broken again

The fragile cannot endure
The wrecked and the jaded,
A place so impure
The static of this cruel world
Cause some birds to fly
Long before they’ve seen their day
Long before they’ve seen their day

Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird fly away
May you never be broken again
Beyond the suffering you’ve known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken again

Ascend may you find no resistance
Know that you made such a difference
And all you leave behind
Will live to the end
The cycle of suffering goes on,
But memories of you stay strong
Someday I too will fly,
And find you again

Let the wind carry you home
Blackbird fly away
May you never be broken again
Beyond the suffering you’ve known
I hope you find your way
May you never be broken again
May you never be broken again

Underneath the desert sun
They bid my brother’s blood to run
Many miles away
Hell has come today
Fire raining from the sky
See the face of fear asking one last time
Let me get home safe
Before it’s too late

One by one
The brave will fall
Life is lost again
They gave it all

Deep within the castle walls
So many grievers’ funeral songs
Echo in their sleep
Ode to memories
The sacrifice of flesh and blood
For a promise land that may not be won
Let us not forget
The hero laid to rest

One by one
The brave will fall
Life is lost again
They gave it all

And they gave it all
A price we can’t ignore
If their hope what they're dying for
For every hero gone
For every family torn
We will honor you forever more

One by one
The brave will fall
Life is lost again
They gave it all

One by one
The brave will fall
Life is lost again
They gave it all
They gave it all

Leaves are on the ground
Fall has come
Blue skies turning grey
Like my love
I tried to carry you
And make you whole
But it was never enough
I must go

And who is gonna save you
When I'm gone
And who'll watch over you
When I'm gone

You say you cared for me
But hide it well
How can you love
Someone not yourself

And who is gonna save you
When I'm gone
And who'll watch over you
When I'm gone

And when I'm gone
Who'll break your fall
Who will you blame?
I can't go on and
Let you lose it all
More than I can take
Who'll ease your pain?
Ease your pain

And love is gonna save
You when I'm gone
And I'll watch over you
And I will give you strength
When you're not strong
Who'll watch over you
When I'm gone away?

Snow is on the ground
Winter's come
You long to hear my voice
But I'm long gone

Are you still lost tonight
Living but dead inside
This is a proclamation
This is a call to rise

Are you abused, alone?
Walking with broken bones
If you feel you've been forgotten
Let this song guide you home

We are the disillusioned
We've been left wanting more
Before every aspiration
Hits the floor

Hold on for your life
All we feel is so
Far from alive
The damned are done believing
And the cursed can dream no more
So hold on for your life
Because only the strong survive

They tell you what you should be
They sell you their plastic dreams
Opinions are all provided
But nothing is what it seems

I dare you to take control
Cause empty your hands
And bruised on the soul
For those who show no resistance
And those who are weak below

We are the disenchanted
We die with each passing day
And no one here understands us
So I say..

Hold on for your life
All we feel is so
Far from alive
The damned are done believing
And the cursed can dream no more
So hold on for your life
Because only the strong survive

How will it feel?
To live a lie
Until your dying day
When nothing is real
As we sacrifice
Bending until we break
It's been revealed
Hold on for your life
Dreams are not theirs to take
Dreams are not theirs to take

Hold on for your life
All we feel is so
Far from alive
The damned are done believing
And the cursed can dream no more
So hold on for your life
Because only the strong
I said only the strong survive

Crack the heart with true intentions
Blood and scars and no redemption
We’ve been a slave to your disaster
Lost it all it doesn’t matter

And we don’t care at all
We got nothing to take on
And leave the rest to fall
We’re going back where we belong

Waste aways amount to nothing
But your opinions keep on coming
We’re dead inside to your rejection
Risk it all and did I mention

I’ll say it again
I’ll say it again

And we don’t care at all
We got nothing to take on
And leave the rest to fall
We’re going back where we belong

Never doubt it
Never question
What we were
And where we’ve been
Scream out loud
As our intentions
Find a word

And we don’t care at all
We got nothing to take on
And leave the rest to fall
We’re going back where we belong

I’ll say it again

And we don’t care at all
We got nothing to take on
And leave the rest to fall
We’re going back where we belong
