[ INSTRUMENTAL ]

Hello you, how was the rest?
You made it through
But never the less
I got you, out on a wire
you be love and I'll be a liar
tell it all and fill up the air
make it loud 'cause nobody's there (Nobody's there)

stop, turn, take a look around
At all the lights and sounds
Let 'em bring you in
slow, burn, let it all fade out
And pull the curtain down
Wonder where you been

Make it new but stay in the lines
Just let go
Keep it inside
Smile big, for everyone
Even when you know what they've done
They gave you the end but not where to start
Not how to build, how to tear it apart
Tell it all and fill up the air
Make it loud 'cause nobody's there (Nobody's there)

stop, turn, take a look around
At all the lights and sounds
Let 'em bring you in
slow, burn, let it all fade out
And pull the curtain down
Wonder where you been

I've got a way to work this out
I've got a way and you know how
I've got a way to work this out
I've got a way and you know how
I've got a way to work this out
I've got a way...
I've got a way to work this out
I've got a way and you know how
I've got a way to work this out
I've got a way...
I've got a way to work this out
I've got a way and you know how
I've got a way to work this out
I've got a way.

stop, turn, take a look around
At all the lights and sounds
Let 'em bring you in
slow, burn, let it all fade out
And pull the curtain down
Wonder where you been
You earned everything you found
And painted faces frown
I'll say I knew you when

I work all night
For one more day that I can say I'm all alone, alone
I just need time
And I will say what I believe and I'll come home, home
And all I know

[Chorus]

I never thought I would wake up in bed
Watching the world coming down on my head
I'd sleep like a dog if you would never had said
This is the world coming down on your head

As life flies by
I'm not sure how I'm gonna do this all again, again
So Line by Line
I write this down and I'm just trying to find the end, the end
And all I know

[Chorus]

I never thought I would wake up in bed
Watching the world coming down on my head
I'd sleep like a dog if you would never had said
This is the world coming down on your head

You gave it to me
I remember it well
You got the world coming down on your head
There's nothing to fight for, it's already dead
And this is the world coming down on my head

[Chorus]

I'm not gonna swallow now that I'm fed
Cos I want the world coming down on my head
I'm just gonna find out you're already dead
And that was the world coming down on your head

He likes vampires and hit list radio
But turns it off when he hears this one song he knows
And you breathe the windows down
Your driving out far as you make your way bake home
Ride in silence because he will not let go
And you breathe the windows down
It's a new place that you have found

[Chorus]

How did I play writing books
All about heroes and crooks
One of them saves you from this
The other one steals you and then, sure, things, fall
And all sure things fall.

Do you remember how we used to get so high
It didn't work at first we tried it two more times
And we could breathe the windows down
I was thinking bout the temperature out side
Cool like the water that was running from our eyes
And we could breathe the windows down
It's a new place that we have found

[Chorus]

He can take you all the way to church this time
But don't forget you summed it up in 50 lines

How did I play writing books
All about heroes and crooks
One of them saves you from this
The other one steals you
Of all of the places I looked
And all of the pictures I took
One of them's here with me now
Finally finding out how, sure, things, fall
All sure things fall.

Man once sang to me
Look at you saving the world on your own
And I wonder how things gonna be
Cos the time here it passes so slow
In a city of devils we live
A city of devils we live
Find somebody to learn
Boy you gotta love someone more than yourself
I can feel the fire of the city lights burn
It's hard to find angels in hell

[Chorus]

Flying alone I
Feel like I don't belong and I,
Can't tell right from the wrong, why,
Have I been here so long

In a city of devils we live
A city of devils we live

Questions I can't seem to find
To the answers I already have
And you can't see the sky here tonight
So I guess I can't make my way back

[Chorus]

What if I wanted you here right now
Would you fall in the fire burn me down
If I wanted you here right now
Would you fall in the fire burn me down
If I wanted you here right now...

In a city of devils we live
In a city of devils we live
A city of devils we live
In a city of...

[Chorus]

I don't belong
Don't belong
I've been here too long
Too long

You and me
A little different
Though we tried to stay the same
It never leaves
And when it changes it is still a waiting game

I wait for a lonely breath
I wait to surface from this death
Wait for the light to come
And take away these images I get
In my head

[Chorus]

More than ever
I need to feel you
More than ever
I see the real you

You are me
A worst disaster would be waking up alone
Now we're free
We're drifting out
Like all the ones we didn't know
I wait for a silent tear
I wait for things to disappear
Wait for the ground to stop moving underneath my only fear
If I lose you I don't know

More than ever
I need to feel you
It's all around
More than ever
I see the real you
And it's around

Everything, everything
We've had
Out of sight out of mind
Given that
What I see when I dream
Hurts like hell and back
[X2]

[Chorus]
[X2]

Here it is
One more glass for these broken hands
Goes down for you
I'm falling in
I sink then swallow
I never meant
To see this through

I'm taking them all
I'm taking them all back for good
To a place where I know that I'm safe
Then I can fall
Then I can fall where I should
In this bottle with all my mistakes

All the days
Since I've landed
I've lost the way
To find my truth
Float away
And leave me stranded
What's left to say
I've hurt for you

I'm taking them all
I'm taking them all back for good
To a place where I know that I'm safe
Then I can fall
Then I can fall where I should
In this bottle with all my mistakes

I could sleep
But when I wake here
You'll still be gone
And you're my air
I could breathe
If you would stay here
Another song
So I could stay

I could sleep
But when I wake here
You'll still be gone
And you're my air
I could breathe
If you would stay here
Another song
So I could stay

[Chorus X2]

I heard a voice last night
It said wake up and open your eyes
Wake up, walk out tonight
She don't care if you're dead or alive

She moves like beams of light
Straight through this universe in my head
Where I get piece of mind
I'm free from the stupid things that I said
She's all in my head

Did I get lost while I was gone?
I traveled space for much too long
But there's a planet that I have found
And you are far away for now

Somewhere behind her eyes
Some supernatural energy takes me for quite the ride
Across time where I defy gravity
This synergy

Did I get lost while I was gone?
I traveled space for much too long
But there's a planet I have found
And you are gone away for now

What would the sentence be if I could say it all at once?
What would the sentence be if I could say it all at once?

Did I get lost while I was gone?
I traveled space for much too...

Did I get lost while I was gone?
I traveled space for much too long
But there's a planet I have found
And you are far away (far away)
You are far away
You are far away for now

Grey skies clouding up the things we used to see with wide eyes
Maybe everything was meant to be this way
Will it ever change
But are we stuck here on our own

[Chorus]

It's all gone grey
It's all gone grey

I found telling you the truth the hardest thing to get out
I know it wasn't you that made me feel this way
Will it ever change
Or are we stuck here on our own.

And give it one more try
I don't know if I would stay
I feel so much better now
And baby begging me
Will leave you so empty inside
So you shouldn't even try

I know every last regret inside of me is my own
The way I hold them close has made me be this way
I will never change
I know I'm stuck here on my own, on my own

Given one more try
I don't know if I would stay
I feel so much better now
Where did we go wrong
I know you still hold on to me
But it's time that you let go
I gave you things I had
That I could not get back again
But I'm better off alone

[Chorus]
It's all gone grey
It's all gone grey
It's all gone grey
It's all gone grey

The whole world was sleeping
And I was there
You could just sense this feeling in the air
Like no one's words were good enough to define what we feared
And no one's words were strong enough to fix what happened here

[Chorus]

Lead on to save me
Lead us all there
Find me some answers
One nation beware
Can't tell the difference between myth and man
Or what's necessary or where I should stand

The whole world is different now men have died
They can just sense this feeling in our eyes
Like no one's hands are big enough
To hold onto this fear
And no one's hands are strong enough to fix what happened here

[Chorus]

So do we do now
Raise our voices loud
We're searching for something that cannot be found
Here open mouths
I see open hands
Blinded and silent I can't understand

The whole world is watching with one blank stare
I can just sense this feeling of ill-repair
Like no ones heart is full enough
To keep away this fear
And no ones heart is strong enough to fix what happened here

Lead on to save me
Lead us all there
Find me some answers
Its time that you cared
Cant tell the difference between myth and man
Or what's necessary or where I should stand

So do we tell now
Raise our voices loud
We're searching for something that cannot be found
I hear open mouths
And I see open hands
Like the blinded and silent I can't understand.

I could tell you the wildest of tales
My friend the giant and traveling sales
Tell you all the times that I failed
The years all behind me
The stories excelled.
And I'm drying out
Crying out
This isn't how I go

I could tell you of a man not so tall
Who said life's a circus and so we are small
Tell you of a girl that I saw
I froze in the moment and she changed it all

And I'm drying out
Crying out
This isn't how I go
Hurry now
Lay me down
And let these waters flow,
Flow...

Son I am not everything you thought that I would be
But every story I have told is part of me

And you keep the air in my lungs
Floating along as a melody comes
And my heart beats like timpani drums
Keeping the time while a symphony strums
And I'm drying out
Crying out
This isn't how I go
Hurry now
Lay me down
And let these waters flow...
Flow....
Let it flow
Let it flow

Son I am not everything you thought that I would be
But every story I have told is part of me
Son I leave you now but you have so much more to do
And every story I have told is part of you
