RIOT!
Album - 12 giugno 2007 - Debaser id 414055

Just talk yourself up and tear yourself down
You ripped through one wall, now find a way around
Well, what's the problem?
You've got a lot of nerve

So what did you think I would say?
No you can't run away, no you can't run away
So what did you think I would say?
No you can't run away, no you can't run away, you wouldn't

I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay
I put my faith in you, so much faith and then you
Just threw it away...you threw it away...

I'm not so naive, my sorry eyes can see
The way you fly shy of almost everything
Well, if you give up
You'll get what you deserve

So what did you think I would say?
No you can't run away, no you can't run away
So what did you think I would say?
No you can't run away, no you can't run away, you wouldn't!

I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay
I put my faith in you, so much faith and then you
Just threw it away...you threw it away

You were finished long before
We had even seen the start
Why don't you stand up, be a man about it?
Fight with your bare hands about it now

I never wanted to say this (Say this...)
You never wanted to stay, well, did you?
I put my faith in you, so much faith and then you
Just threw it away...

I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay
I put my faith in you, so much faith and then you
Just threw it away

No, sir
Well, I don't wanna be the blame
Not anymore
It's your turn, so take a seat
We're settling the final score
And why do we like to hurt so much?
I can't decide
You have made it harder just to go on
And why?
Oh, the possibilities
Well, I was wrong

That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa
That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa
I drowned out all my sense with the sounds of its beating
And that's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa

I wonder
How am I supposed to feel?
When you're not here
'Cause I burned
Every bridge I ever built
When you were here
I still try
Holding on to silly things
I never learn
Oh, why?
Oh, the possibilities
I'm sure you've heard

That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa
That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa
I drowned out all my sense with the sounds of it's beating
That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa

Hey, make your way to me, to me
And I'll always be, just so inviting
If I… ever start to think straight
This heart will start a riot in me
Let's start, start, hey!

Why do we like to hurt so much?
Oh, why do we like to hurt so much?

That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa
That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa
That's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa
I can't trust myself with anything, but this
And that's what you get when you let your heart win, whoa

Somehow, everything's gonna fall right into place
If we only had a way to make it all fall faster everyday
If only time flew like a dove
We gotta make it fly, faster than I'm falling in love

This time we're not giving up
Let's make it last forever
Screaming "Hallelujah"
We'll make it last forever

Holding onto patience, wearing thin
I can't force these eyes to see the end
If only time flew like a dove
We could watch it fly, and just keep looking on

This time we're not giving up
Let's make it last forever
Screaming "Hallelujah"
We'll make it last forever

And we've got time on our hands
And we've got, got nothing but time on our hands
Got nothing but, got nothing but
Got nothing but time on our hands

This time we're not giving up
Oh, let's make it last forever
Screaming "Hallelujah"
"Hallelujah"
"Hallelujah"

I'm in the business of misery, let's take it from the top,
She's got a body like an hourglass that's ticking like a clock.
It's a matter of time before we all run out--
When I thought he was mine, she caught him by the mouth.

I waited eight long months, she finally set him free,
I told him I couldn't lie, he was the only one for me.
Two weeks, and we had caught on fire,
She's got it out for me, but I wear the biggest smile.

Whoa, I never meant to brag,
But I got him where I want him now.
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag,
To steal it all away from you now.

But, God, does it feel so good
'Cause I got him where I want him now.
And if you could, then you know you would
'Cause, God, it just feels so--
It just feels so good.

Second chances, they don't ever matter, people never change,
Once a whore, you're nothing more, I'm sorry that'll never change.
And about forgiveness, we're both supposed to have exchanged,
I'm sorry, honey, but I'm passing up, now look this way.

Well, there's a million other girls who do it just like you,
Looking as innocent as possible to get to who.
They want and what they like, it's easy if you do it right,
Well, I refuse, I refuse, I refuse!

Whoa, I never meant to brag,
But I got him where I want him now.
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag,
To steal it all away from you now.

But, God, does it feel so good
'Cause I got him where I want him right now.
And if you could, then you know you would
'Cause, God, it just feels so…
It just feels so good.

I watched his wildest dreams come true,
Not one of them involving you.
Just watch my wildest dreams come true,
Not one of them involving…

''Whoa, I never meant to brag,
But I got him where I want him now.''

Whoa, I never meant to brag,
But I got him where I want him now.
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag,
To steal it all away from you now.

But, God, does it feel so good
'Cause I got him where I want him now.
And if you could, then you know you would
'Cause, God, it just feels so…
It just feels so good.

And when it rains
On this side of town, it touches everything
Just say it again and mean it
We don't miss a thing
You made yourself a bed
At the bottom of the blackest hole (blackest hole)
And convinced yourself that it's not the reason
You don't see the sun anymore

And oh, oh, how could you do it?
Oh I, I never saw it coming
Oh, oh, I need the ending
So why can't you stay
Just long enough to explain?

And when it rains
Will you always find an escape?
Just running away
From all of the ones who love you
From everything
You made yourself a bed
At the bottom of the blackest hole (blackest hole)
And you'll sleep 'til May
And you'll say that you don't want to see the sun anymore

And oh, oh, how could you do it?
Oh I, I never saw it coming
Oh, oh, I need the ending
So why can't you stay just long enough to explain?

Take your time
Take my time

Take these chances to turn it around (Take your time)
Take these chances, we'll make it somehow
And take these chances to turn it around (Take my...)
Just turn it around

Oh, how could you do it?
Oh I, I never saw it coming
Oh, oh, how could you do it?
Oh I, I never saw it coming
Oh, oh, how could you do it?
Oh I, I never saw it coming
Oh, oh I need an ending
So why can't you stay
Just long enough to explain?
You can take your time, take my time

What a shame we all became such fragile, broken things
A memory remains, just a tiny spark
I give it all my oxygen
So let the flames begin
So let the flames begin

Oh, glory
Oh, glory
This is how we'll dance when
When they try to take us down
This is what will be our glory

Somewhere weakness is our strength
And I'll die searching for it
I can't let myself regret, such selfishness
My pain and all the trouble caused
No matter how long
I believe that there's hope
Buried beneath it all and
Hiding beneath it all and
Growing beneath it all and

This is how we'll dance when
When they try to take us down
This is how we'll sing it
This is how we'll stand when
When they burn our houses down
This is what will be our glory

Reaching as I sink down into light
Reaching as I sink down into light

This is how we'll dance when
When they try to take us down
This is how we'll sing it
This is how we'll stand when
When they burn our houses down
This is what will be our glory

I've gone for too long
Living like I'm not alive
So I'm going to start over tonight
Beginning with you and I
When this memory fades
I'm gonna make sure it's replaced
With chances taken
Hope embraced
And have I told you?

I'm not going
'Cause I've been waiting for a miracle
And I'm not leaving
I won't let you
Let you give up on a miracle
When it might save you

We've learned to run from
Anything uncomfortable
We've tied our pain below
And no one ever has to know
That inside, we're broken
I tried to patch things up again
To cut my tears and kill these fears
But have I told you, have I?

I'm not going
'Cause I've been waiting for a miracle
And I'm not leaving
I won't let you
Let you give up on a miracle
When it might save you

It's not faith if
If you use your eyes
Oh why

We'll get it right this time (this time)
Let's leave this all behind
Oh why

We'll get it right this time
It's not faith if you're using your eyes
Oh why

I've gone for too long
Living like I'm not alive
So I'm going to start over tonight
Beginning with you and I

I don't want to run from anything uncomfortable
I just want, no
I just need this pain to end right here

I'm not going
'Cause I've been waiting for a miracle
And I'm not leaving
I won't let you
Let you give up on a miracle
'Cause it might save you

Yeah, it might save you
Oh, it might save you

It's not faith if, if you use your eyes
If you use your eyes
If you use your eyes

I got a lot to say to you
Yeah, I got a lot to say
I noticed your eyes are always glued to me
Keeping them here
And it makes no sense at all

They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
Your little spies
They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
Your little spies

Crush
Crush
Crush
Crush, crush
(Two, three, four!)

Nothing compares to, a quiet evening alone
Just the one two, of us who's counting on
That never happens
I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than this

If you want to play it like a game
Well, come on, come on, let's play
'Cause I'd rather waste my life pretending
Than have to forget you for one whole minute

They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
Your little spies
They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
Your little spies

Crush
Crush
Crush
Crush, crush
(Two, three, four!)

Nothing compares to, a quiet evening alone
Just the one two, of us who's counting on
That never happens
I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than this now

Rock and roll, baby
Don't you know that we're all alone now
I need something to sing about
Rock and roll, hey
Don't you know, baby, we're all alone now
I need something to sing about
Rock and roll, hey
Don't you know, baby, we're all alone now
Give me something to sing about

Nothing compares to, a quiet evening alone
Just the one two, of us who's counting on
That never happens
I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than
No, oh

Nothing compares to, a quiet evening alone
Just the one two, of us who's counting on
That never happens
I guess I'm dreaming again
Let's be more than
More than this, oh

I am outside
And I've been waiting for the sun
With my wide eyes
I've seen worlds that don't belong
My mouth is dry
With words I cannot verbalize
Tell me why we live like this

Keep me safe inside
Your arms like towers
Tower over me

Yeah
'Cause we are broken
What must we do to restore
Our innocence
And oh, the promise we adored
Give us life again
'Cause we just wanna be whole

Lock the doors
'Cause I like to capture this voice
It came to me tonight
So everyone will have a choice
And under red lights
I'll show myself it wasn't forged
We're at war
We live like this

Keep me safe inside
Your arms like towers
Tower over me

'Cause we are broken
What must we do to restore
Our innocence
And oh, the promise we adored
Give us life again
'Cause we just wanna be whole

Tower over me
Tower over me

And I'll take the truth at any cost

'Cause we are broken
What must we do to restore
Our innocence
And oh, the promise we adored
Give us life again
'Cause we just wanna be whole

I'm sitting in a room
Made up of only big white walls and in the halls
There are people looking through
The window and the door
They know exactly what we're here for

Don't look up
Just let them think
There's no place else
You'd rather be

You're always on display
For everyone to watch and learn from
Don't you know by now
You can't turn back
Because this road is all you'll ever have

And it's obvious that you're dying, dying
Just living proof that the camera's lying
And oh-oh-open wide, 'cause this is your night
So smile, 'cause you'll go out in style
You'll go out in style

If you let me I could
I'd show you how to build your fences
Set restrictions, separate from the world
The constant battle that you hate to fight
Just blame the limelight

Don't look up
Just let them think
There's no place else
You'd rather be

And now you can't turn back
Because this road is all you'll ever have

And it's obvious that you're dying, dying
Just living proof that the camera's lying
And oh-oh-open wide, 'cause this is your night
So smile

Yeah, yeah you're asking for it
With every breath that you breathe in
Just breathe it in
Yeah, yeah, well you're just a mess
You do all this big talk, yeah
So now let's see you walk it
I said let's see you walk it

Yeah, yeah, well you're just a mess
You do all this big talk, yeah
So now let's see you walk it
I said let's see you walk it

And it's obvious that you're dying, dying
Just living proof that the camera's lying
And oh-oh-open wide,
Yeah, oh-oh-open wide
Yeah, oh-oh-open wide
'Cause you'll go out in style
You'll go out in style

Oh no, I just keep on falling
(Back to the same old)
Where’s hope when misery comes crawling?
(Oh, my way-ay)
With your faith, you’ll trigger a landslide
(Victory)
You kill off this common sense of mine

It takes acquired minds to taste, to taste, to taste this wine
You can’t down it with your eyes
So we don’t need the headlines
We don’t need the headlines
We just want...

(We want the airwaves back, we want the airwaves back)

Everybody sing, like it’s the last song you will ever sing
Tell me, tell me, do you feel the pressure now?
Everybody live, like it’s the last day you will ever see
Tell me, tell me, do you feel the pressure now?

Right now you’re the only reason
(I’m not letting go-oh)
Time out if everyone’s worth pleasing
(Well ha-ha)
You’ll trigger a landslide
(Victory)
To kill off their finite state of mind

It takes acquired minds to taste, to taste, to taste this wine
You can’t down it with your eyes
So we don’t need the headlines
No, we don’t want your headlines
We just want...

(We want the airwaves back, we want the airwaves back)

Everybody sing, like it’s the last song you will ever sing
Tell me, tell me, do you feel the pressure now?
Everybody live, like it’s the last day you will ever see
Tell me, tell me, do you feel the pressure now?

Everybody sing, like it’s the last song you will ever sing
Tell me, tell me, do you feel the pressure?

Alright, so you think you’re ready?
Ok, then you say this with me
Go!
We were born for this, we were born for this

Alright, so you think you’re ready?
OK, then you say this with me
Go!
We were born for this, we were born for this
We were born for this, we were born for this

We were born for
We were born for

Everybody sing, like it’s the last song you will ever sing
Tell me, tell me, do you feel the pressure?
Everybody live, like it’s the last day you will ever see
Tell me, tell me, do you feel the pressure now?

Everybody sing, like it’s the last song you will ever sing
Tell me, tell me, can you feel the pressure?
Tell me, tell me, can you feel the pressure?

We were born for this, we were born for this
We were born for this
