We walk alone until the end of night.. It's suicide, but we will overcome.. . Another life is swinging in the breeze.. These southern trees have the strangest fruit..
Standing on the edge of the palisades cliffs. In the shadow of the skyline very far away. A lightning rod that couldn't pull the storm from me. I was 5 years old my best friends older brother died.
In the circuit the frequency's breaking up. The speakers can barely move. (This is not a test. Tune to the broadcast). Witness the jet-lag. Look in the mirror.
Do you hear the jet plane yawning miles across the sky. Do you hear the garbage truck back down the boulevard. Setting off the car alarms as it passes by?.

The lights go down, outside (before our cars collide). So we silhouette ourselves (in forty shades of fire). Do you know where this is leading? I'll meet you there..
Sitting alone in the dark of the stadium,. He whispers his secrets into a cheap guitar.. With the flick of his wrists he turns words into melodies,. Chords into church bells, fill up the alleys..
She's the song that you tried to sing,. And the note that you couldn't hit.. So you locked her up in a music box,. And turned the key on all of us.. .
What have you done?. You followed footsteps in the dark,. And found your faith left out behind your father's car.. . You said "there's no one watching over me or over you, it's always out of reach".
Steps ascend to a loaded gun. The scent of matches hangs in the air. A lit on flickers out in a heart beat. We don't want to see this,. A flash of light that's letting go of an empty bullet case.
This is what you see when you look in my direction:. Incandescent corsets draw eyes tight like wires.. This is how it feels,. Calling out but no one even hears.
There was a sound,. Split all the heavens apart. In on the northern route,. Out of the southern spark. Oh, I will be with you,. Running from the rain.
The stage is set to rip the wings from a butterfly. (The stage is set). The stage is set don't forget to breathe. (Between the lines). . If the whole world dies, then it's safe to take the stage.
This is a war we live. And the sides are drawn, sides are drawn. And we're all wrapped up in fatigues. And they wear us out, wear us out. There is a storm at sea.
Don't even take a breath. The air is cut with cyanide. In honor of the New Year. . The press gives us cause to celebrate. The air raid sirens. Flood barbed wire skylines.
We stare into the blinding light. To see what's between us. It's red and it's white. Like lies, like lipstick on last look goodbyes. The substance assimilating to watch the bodies burst.
Falling from the top floor your lungs. Fill like parachutes. Windows go rushing by.. People inside,. Dressed for the funeral in black and white.. These ties strangle our necks, hanging in the closet,.
I hear the ocean breathing in a sigh.. The seagulls screaming overhead, just out of site.. I see the sun melt slowly in your eyes.. Fall into the dirty water, time after time..
Lights out on division street. And all the hate that rises. Through the cracks in the pavement,. As the temperature falls.. (this is where is hits the ground).
5-4-3-2-1 Lets start a fire.. Burn this town from inside out.. Till no ones left alive.. And you can't feel the rhythm of your steps when you hit the street..
