Hit And Run

You're always searching for a hit and run
Just accept that all the doors are locked
No matter how hard you try to break them down
No where to go, you're running in circles
It's time for you to make a choice
I know it's hard for you to let your guard down
But pushing me away won't help
There's only so much I can do
Only so much I can take
So get the fuck up
And do your part
To make things right
False hope do you remember when?
I gave you that push you needed
To get you off your feet
From that day you kept running and never stopped
I should've known you'd let me down
So sit the fuck down
And shut your mouth
It's my turn to walk away from a lost cause
You're nothing
You're nothing to me
You're nothing but a lost cause

Left Your Heart Behind

And after all you've said and done, you've given up on every one
There's no more punk rock attitude, no more believing in you
Question is would you do it all again, give up on all your friends
Just to make it to the top, is it worth the quick buck?
You have to give it up, to gain it all
The climb is preceded by the fall
and the loss of everything you held dear
and everyone that you knew, they'll all go on without you
I remember that winter of 2007, I was broken and you gave me hope
I look back on those days as a new man, I've changed
I'm moving forward and you've lost touch
And then they'll say it's just not the same
Just another frustrated player in a losers game
But I bet somewhere down the line, sometime soon you will find
You left your heart behind, you left your heart behind
You have to give it up, to gain it all
The climb is preceded by the fall
and the loss of everything you held dear
and everyone that you knew, they'll all go on without you

With A Little Courage

You can't weight your image like gold
You'll lose yourself in the process
It gets in the way of making progress
You're falling behind in a race you'll never win
and I'll laugh as your reputation fades away
courage-less
I guess their opinions didn't mean as much in the long run
You put your pride in an act you play, a fake identity
You think that you're playing the part that they all want to see
but you're failing miserably
and I'll laugh as your reputation fades away
courage-less
I guess their opinions didn't mean as much in the long run
I bet your skin is comfortable, I know mine is
I don't give a shit about what you think of me
Feel free to comment, you're preaching to plugged ears
I'll be just fine in my glass house
So fuck off

Darkly Dreaming Dexter

I'd say don't judge me, but the truth is
all the evidence is on the ocean floor
and on this rooftop, staring down
I'm not gunna jump, no
I just want to feel alive
Twisted judgement, I live to kill
Good thing I learned how to cover up my tracks
and on this rooftop, staring down
I'm not gunna jump, no
I just want to feel alive
Blood
Sometimes it puts my teeth on edge
Sometimes it controls it all
and on this rooftop, staring down
I'm not gunna jump, no
I just want to feel alive

I stepped back from the edge and saw all those people swaying in the wind, ready to fall
Truth is I belong with you, my friends
We've got nothing to lose, so if we fall at least we're falling with style
Sit back and laugh at the world with me
At all the problems that'll never get fixed
and all the people who live their lives for someone else
There's no I in brotherhood, and we represent
a coalition of friends til the bitter end
Truth is I belong with you, my friends
We've got nothing to lose, so if we fall at least we're falling with style
Sit back and laugh at the world with me
At all the problems that'll never get fixed
and all the people who live their lives for someone else
and you know you can't stop us, so don't even try
We move to the blast beat of our own drums
Truth is I belong with you, my friends
So let's make some noise and show them what we're made of
We've got bigger hearts than brains
That's how its always been
We live our lives on the edge, laughing

Let Down

I'm sick of seeing you through bloodshot eyes
All this bullshit that you put me through, it comes as no surprise
That if my guess is right, then you'll soon see
The darker side of life and misery again
Again and again
and as you cry my name I'll whisper softly,
"I told you so", what, you think I didn't know?
It goes to show, that if a girl like this is calling your name
Just let her go
I pulled up to the bridge it was burned to the ground
Air thick with gasoline
I'm sick of all your empty words
What you've told me isn't what I've seen
and if my guess is right, then you'll soon see
The darker side of life and misery again
Again and again
and as you cry my name I'll whisper softly,
"I told you so", what, you think I didn't know?
It goes to show, that if a girl like this is calling your name
Just let her go
Don't let her bring you down
If my guess is right, then you'll soon see
The darker side of life and misery again
Again and again
and as you cry my name I'll whisper softly,
"I told you so", what, you think I didn't know?
It goes to show, that if a girl like this is calling your name
Just let her go

Forget all the empty pieces of your heart
Ignore the prophecies, you'll listen to me if you are smart
Find your passion, find your peace, find your area of expertise
You might think you're trapped here, but I'm not giving up
Forget all those things they taught you
I think it's time to leave this world behind
Don't follow the signs, 'cause they're all lies, it's true
That the only way out is upside-down
(don't over think it)
Who cares if he wants to stay here?
You've fought off too much pain to stop your progress now
The puzzle's all figured out
You know which path is right
You've forgotten all those things they taught you
And now we're finally leaving this world behind
We're ready to face the future, dark or bright
It's funny that the way out was upside-down
(It was so simple all along)
The prophet may have gone insane, but we made it here with heads intact
We made to the promised land, with big blue birds and silky sand
Titan is our home now, no more chaos, we're here to stay
Upside-down
