Just like a rescue of a stray dog in the rain I was hungry when you found me And you could tell by my tail and my rib cage What was once around me
I've been chased by a rain cloud I was lost and nearly drowned And kicked around but now I'm found And I won't run away
Bless your heart you gave me a home And a new start, and I will leave you never Sleep at your feet and stand guard At you're front door, I will keep things together
I've been chased by a rain cloud I was lost and nearly drowned And kicked around but now I'm found And I won't run away
I killed myself, threw away my mental health But nobody was blinking an eye Backyard, basement, falling on the pavement Nothing left to say but goodbye Nothing left to say but goodbye
It's true I ran away before but be sure I am no tail-chaser I know a good thing when it throws me a bone I'm your best friend forever
I've been chased by a rain cloud I was lost and nearly drowned And kicked around but now I'm found And I won't run away
You would not believe your eyes If ten million fireflies lit up the world as i fell asleep 'Cause they'd fill the open air And leave teardrops everywhere You'd think me rude but I'd just stand and stare
[Chorus х2:] I'd like to make myself believe That planet Earth turns slowly It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep 'Cause everything is never as it seems
'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs As they tried to teach me how to dance A foxtrot above my head A sockhop beneath my bed A disco ball is just hanging by a thread
When I fall asleep leave my door open just a crack (Please take me away from here) 'Cause I feel like such an insomniac (Please take me away from here) Why do I tire of counting sheep (Please take me away from here) When I'm far too tired to fall asleep
To ten million fireflies I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes I got misty eyes as they said farewell But I’ll know where several are If my dreams get real bizarre 'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar
[Repeat Chorus:] (2x)
I'd like to make myself believe that planet earth turns slowly It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep 'Cause my dreams are bursting at the seams
Say, yes they know that you fought yourself another time Don't they know that you're full of pain already? Yes they know that you've hurt yourself another time Decadence isn't easy, is it? Yes they know that you've hurt yourself another time Don't they know that you're full of pain already? Yes they know that you've hurt yourself another time Decadence isn't easy, is it?
Then you slowly recall all your mind Why, your soul's gone cold, and all hope has run dry Dead inside Never enough to forget that you're one of the lonely Slowly recall all your mind
Say, yes they know that you've hurt yourself another time Don't they know that you're full of pain already? Yes they know that you've hurt yourself another time Decadence isn't easy, is it? Yes they know that you've hurt yourself another time Don't they know that you're full of pain already? Yes they know that you've hurt yourself another time Decadence isn't easy...
Then you slowly recall all your mind Why, your soul's gone cold, and all hope has run dry Dead inside Never enough to forget that you're one of the lonely Slowly recall all your mind
If I scare you now Don't run from me I've been hiding my pain, you see Said if I scare you now Don't run from me I've been hiding my pain, you see
Slowly recall all your mind Why, your soul's gone cold, and all hope has run dry Dead inside Never enough to forget that you're one of the lonely Slowly recall all your mind Slowly recall all your mind
Say, yes they know that you've hurt yourself another time Don't they know that you're full of pain already? Yes they know that you've hurt yourself another time Decadence isn't easy, is it?
Rrwoooaaaw! Ahh, Ahhh Burning now I bring you Hell!
Ahh, Ahhh Oh, burning now I bring you Hell!
Read me tonight, when the warnings said Leave a shudder upon you Running from all that you feared in your life Soul of the night, when the sun mislead Paint a horror upon you Marking the moment, displaying in my ghost of a life! And I can't get round the way you left me out in the open To leave me to die! So how can I, forget the way You lead me through the path into Heaven To leave me behind!
Now I can't stay behind Save me, from wreaking my vengeance Upon you, to killing more than I can tell Burning now I bring you Hell!
Oh, burning now I bring you Hell!
Free me tonight, as the animal kings breathe their terror upon you Caught in the moment, engaging in my Bloodlust tonight, Now I can't control my venom's flow Get back from me demon, or be exorcised!
Now I can't stay behind Save me, from wreaking my vengeance Upon you, to killing more than I can tell Burning now I bring you Hell!
All my emotion and all my integrity All that you've taken from me All my emotion and all my integrity All that you've taken from me
Now I can't stay behind Save me, from wreaking my vengeance Upon you, to killing more than I can tell Soul of the night, I know Now I can't stay behind Save me, from wreaking my vengeance Upon you, to killing more than I can tell Burning now I bring you Hell!
Let me apologize to begin with Let me apologize for what I'm about to say But trying to be genuine was harder than it seemed And somehow I got caught up in between
Let me apologize to begin with Let me apologize for what I'm about to say But trying to be someone else was harder than it seemed And somehow I got caught up in between
Between my pride and my promise Between my lies and how the truth gets in the way The things I want to say to you get lost before they come The only thing that's worse than one is none
Let me apologize to begin with Let me apologize for what I'm about to say But trying to regain your trust was harder than it seemed And somehow I got caught up in between
Between my pride and my promise Between my lies and how the truth gets in the way The things I want to say to you get lost before they come The only thing that's worse than one is none The only thing that's worse than one is none
And I cannot explain to you In anything I say or do or plan Fear is not afraid of you But guilt's a language you can understand
I cannot explain to you In anything I say or do But I hope that actions speak the words they can
For my pride and my promise For my lies and how the truth gets in the way The things I want to say to you get lost before they come The only thing that's worse than one is
Pride and my promise Between my lies and how the truth gets in the way The things I want to say to you get lost before they come The only thing that's worse than one is none The only thing that's worse than one is none The only thing that's worse than one is none
We were the ones who weren't afraid We were the broken hearted We were the scars that wouldn't fade away
How did we let go How did we forget That we don't have to hide We won't believe the lies again We won't be paralyzed
We can be who we are now we are alive We can fight, they cannot contain us It's who we are, we are not dying We're us forever We won't hide our faces from the light Eliminate the space between us It's who we are, we are forever It's who we are
We were the cheers the passion cried We were the sacrificed We were the flame that wouldn't die inside [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsty.com/red-who-we-are-lyrics.html ] How did we go wrong? We will not forget We won't get left behind We won't give up the fight again We won't be denied
We can be who we are now we are alive We can fight, they cannot contain us It's who we are, we are not dying We're us forever We won't hide our faces from the light Eliminate the space between us It's who we are, we are forever It's who we are
We will never die We will never die We will not deny We'll come out alive
We can be who we are now we are alive We can fight, they cannot contain us It's who we are, we are not dying We're us forever We won't hide our faces from the light Eliminate the space between us It's who we are, we are forever It's who we are
I will forever be reminded Of how I struggled to survive The betrayal that you conspired in All that devotion thrown away
And with everything I confided I should have known not to trust again This insanity has divided Left me with nothing left to destroy
I'm becoming so paranoid Everyone is so paranoid In a moment, you will see my other side When I'm confronted My demeanor turns from Jekyll into Hyde
Hell has broken free tonight No pale deception anymore You awoke him; now he will feed On the lies He demands your sacrifice
I can barely control this feeling Look at the murder in my eyes I was never good at concealing Violent thoughts have come to life
Horror will have a deeper meaning You are the reason this began Even now, I can hear you screaming There's only one thing left to destroy
And I'll no longer be paranoid No more reason to be annoyed In a moment, you will see my other side When I'm confronted My demeanor turns from Jekyll into Hyde
Hell has broken free tonight No pale deception anymore You awoke him; now he will feed On the lies He demands your sacrifice
It’s not the end but it feels like it is I’m waking up like I’m back from the dead I’m stepping out and it feels so free But as long as I’m moving it’s alright
I feel alive and it hurts for a change I’m looking back its hard to believe That I was cool with the days that I wasted Complacent and tasteless and bored But that was yesterday
Chorus We’re never going back to ok We’re never going back to easy We’re never going back to the way it was We’re never going back to ok
This discontent, like a slap in the face A mediocre I’ve had enough of this place This party’s over and I’m moving away From the frills of your Beverly Hills That was yesterday
Chorus We’re never going back to ok We’re never going back to easy We’re never going back to the way it was We’re never going back to ok
We’re here to stay This is our time My only life Our chance to live
Yeah, yo You were that foundation never gonna be another one, no. I followed, so taken, so conditioned, I could never let go. Then sorrow, then sickness, Then the shock when you flip it on me So hollow, so vicious, so afraid I couldn't let myself see That I could never be held, back or up, no, I hold myself. Check the rep, yep, you know my mine well. Forget the rest, let them know my hell. There and back, yet my soul ain't sell. Kept respect up the best they fell. Let the rest be the tale they tell, that I was there saying:
In these promises broken deep below Each word gets lost in the echo So one last lie I can see through This time I've finally let you go
Test my will, test my heart. Let me tell you how the odd's gonna stack up. Y'all go hard, I go smart. How’s that working out for y’all in the back, huh? I've seen that frustration, been crossed and lost and told no. And I've come back unshaken, let down and lived and let go.
So you can let it be known, I don't hold back, I hold my own. I can't be mapped, I can't be cloned. I can't #C-Flat, it ain't my tone. I can't fall back, I came too far. Hold myself up and love my scars. Let the bells ring wherever they are, Cause I was there saying:
In these promises broken deep below Each word gets lost in the echo So one last lie I can see through This time I've finally let you go
No, you can tell 'em all now. I don't back up, I don't back down. I don't fold up and I don't bow. I don't row over, don't know how. I don't care where the enemies are. I can't be stopped, all I know, go hard. Won't forget how I got this far For every time saying:
In these promises broken deep below Each word gets lost in the echo So one last lie I can see through This time I finally let you go
The cycle repeated As explosions broke in the sky All that I needed Was the one thing I couldn't find
And you were there at the turn Waiting to let me know
We're building it up To break it back down We're building it up To burn it down We can't wait To burn it to the ground
The colors conflicted As the flames climbed into the clouds I wanted to fix this But couldn't stop from tearing it down
And you were there at the turn Caught in the burning glow And I was there at the turn Waiting to let you know
We're building it up To break it back down We're building it up To burn it down We can't wait To burn it to the ground
You told me yes you held me high And I believed when you told that lie I played that soldier you played king And struck me down when I kissed that ring You lost that right to hold that crown I built you up but you let me down So when you fall I'll take my turn And fan the flames as your blazes burn
And you were there at the turn Waiting to let me know
We're building it up To break it back down We're building it up To burn it down We can't wait To burn it to the ground
When you fall I'll take my turn And fan the flames as your blazes burn
We can't wait To burn it to the ground
When you fall I'll take my turn And fan the flames as your blazes burn
I'ma be that nail in your coffin Sayin' that I softened I was duckin' down to reload So you can save your petty explanations I don't have the patience Before you even say it I know You let your pride or your ego Talk slick to me, no That is not the way I get down And looking how you lose your composure Now let me show ya Exactly how the breaking point sounds
I wanna see you choke on your lies Swallow up your greed Suffer all alone in your misery Choke on your lies Swallow up your greed Suffer all alone in your misery
What is it you want me to tell ya? I am not the failure I would rather live and let be But you came with the right kind of threat to Push me to let you Know you can't intimidate me You disrespect me so clearly Now you better hear me That is not the way it goes down You did it to yourself and it's over Now let me show ya Exactly how the breaking point sounds
I wanna see you choke on your lies Swallow up your greed Suffer all alone in your misery Choke on your lies Swallow up your greed Suffer all alone in your misery
You did it to yourself [x8]
I wanna see you choke on your lies Swallow up your greed Suffer all alone in your misery Choke on your lies Swallow up your greed Suffer all alone in your misery
If all the flowers faded away And if all the storm clouds decided to stay Then you would find me each hour the same She is tomorrow and I am today
And if right is leaving I'd rather be wrong She is the sunlight and the sun is gone
If loving her is a heartache for meAnd if holding her means that I have to bleed Then I am the martyr and love is to blame She is the healing and I am the pain She lives in a daydream where I don't belong She is the sunlight and the sun is gone
And if right is leaving I'd rather be wrong She is the sunlight and the sun is gone She is the sunlight and the sun is gone
