We Owe This to Ourselves Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Since when did bullets start to sing?
(It didn't have to end like this)
Is this the end of everything?
(It didn't have to end like this)
I feel, I feel we can't stop here
(I feel, I feel we won't stop here)
It didn't have to end like this
[Chorus]
We owe this to ourselves
We owe this to ourselves
We can't just let this go
We owe this to ourselves
We owe this to ourselves
We just can't let this go
[Verse 2]
If every man became like King
(We could start it all with this)
We could do more than just dream
(We could start it all with this)
I feel, I feel the change is here
[Chorus]
We owe this to ourselves
We owe this to ourselves
We can't just let this go
We owe this to ourselves
(To fight, to lead)
We owe this to ourselves
We just can't let this go
[Chorus]
We owe this to ourselves
(We owe this to ourselves)
We owe this to ourselves
We can't just let this go
We owe this to ourselves
(To fight, to lead)
We owe this to ourselves
We just can't let this go
Impossible Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You make my teeth clench and my hands shake
Do you ever see what you do to me?
Wearing me out, just wearing me out
But I'm wearing you down
[Verse 2]
You're impossible to love or leave
So impossible to win or please
I'm wearing you out, just wearing you out
But I'm wearing you down
[Chorus]
Take what you want from me
It means nothing now
Take everything from me
It means nothing now
Not so easy to forgive; harder to forget
Take what you want
[Verse 3]
I make your lips wet and your bones quake
Try to think through what I can do to you
It's wearing me thin
Can I begin to wear you out?
[Chorus]
Take what you want from me
It means nothing now
Take everything from me
It means nothing now
Not so easy to forgive; harder to forget
Take what you want
[Solo]
[Verse 3]
I'm impossible to figure out
So impossible, you had your doubts
[Chorus]
Take what you want from me
It means nothing now
Take everything, honey
It means nothing now
Not so easy to forgive; harder to forget
Take what you want from me
It means nothing now
Take everything, honey
It means nothing now
Not so easy to forgive; harder to forget
Take what you want from me
(Take what you want from me)
Take Me (As You Found Me) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ground is shaking underneath now that you’re here
Body’s skipping beats when you appear
The world is on fire since you’ve come here
All I ever desired is here with me
You're here with me
You're here with me
You're here with me
[Chorus]
Take me as you found me
Take me as you found me
Or leave me to die
Leave me wanting
Leave me wanting
The rest of your life
[Verse 2]
Who's gonna drain my blood now that you're gone?
Who's gonna right all my wrongs now that you're gone?
Who's gonna tear my flesh with a siren song?
Now that you're gone
Oh, now that you're gone
[Chorus]
Take me as you found me
Take me as you found me
Or leave me tonight
Leave me wanting
Leave me wanting
The rest of your life
Take me as you found me
Take me as you found me
Or leave me to die
Leave me wanting
Leave me wanting
The rest of your life
The rest of your life
[Bridge]
You left me stranded
Oh, now that you're gone
Don't leave me standing
Oh, here all alone
Take me as you found me
Take me as you found me
Or leave me tonight
Leave me wanting
Leave me wanting
The rest of your life
Take me as you found me
Take me as you found me
Or leave me to die
Leave me wanting
Leave me wanting
The rest of your life
Closer Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Do you expect me to be or believe you?
Do you accept me when it's me you can see through?
Are you keeping safe distance?
Are you arm's-length away?
Are you keeping safe distance
Holding me arm's-length away?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Are you there, can someone answer me?
[Chorus 1]
Closer, closer, closer
Closer, closer, closer
[Verse 2]
Do you expect me to keep from crawling back?
Do you accept me when we both know my past?
Am I keeping safe distance, pushing you arm's-length away?
Am I keeping safe distance?
Oh, it's you that feels betrayed
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Are you there, can someone answer me?
Come where I can see
[Chorus 2]
Closer, closer, closer
Closer, closer, closer
Are you out there somewhere?
Come where I can see
Closer, closer, closer to me
[Bridge]
Come closer
Come closer
Come closer
[Chorus 2]
Closer, closer, closer
Closer, closer, closer
Are you out there somewhere?
Come where I can see
Closer, closer, closer to me
You Belong Here Lyrics
[Intro]
You belong here
You were meant for me
You belong here
You were meant to be with me
[Verse 1]
You've got the better part of me
Always have and always will
You've got the better part of me, oh
And you know that I'm right
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And I know I'm asking too much
And I know I'm taking control
But a heart that's not worth breaking
Isn't worth much, not at all
It isn't worth much at all
[Chorus]
You belong here
You were meant for me
You belong here
You belong here with me
You were meant to be with me
[Verse 2]
You are the better part, you'll see
Always have and always will
You'll be the better part of me, oh
For the rest of my life
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And I know I'm asking too much
And I know I want control
But I'll give you all I have
It isn't much; not much at all
I'm not much at all
[Chorus]
You belong here
You were meant for me
You belong here (you belong here)
You belong here with me
You belong here (you belong here)
(You belong here with me)
You were meant to be with me
[Bridge]
(But I give you all I have
It isn't much; not much at all
But a heart that's not worth breaking
Isn't worth much, not at all)
[Chorus]
You belong here (you belong here)
You were meant for me
You belong here (you belong here)
You belong here with me
You belong here (you belong here)
(You belong here with me)
You were meant to be with me
(You belong here with me)
Pray Tell Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Are you hiding secrets from me?
Is there more to this life that I can't see?
What will I find out over time?
Waiting for the moment to arrive
[Pre-Chorus]
Why are you lying there?
What are you hiding there?
[Chorus]
Hide away
Why do you hide away from me?
Hide yourself
Why do you hide your face from me?
I'm the only one that can save you now
I'm the only one that can save you now
[Verse 1]
Do you like the shadows in there?
Keep me in the dark, now are you scared?
Will the truth ever set you free?
Tell me will you buckle at your knees?
[Pre-Chorus]
What are you hiding there?
Why are you lying there?
[Chorus]
Hide away
Why do you hide away from me?
Hide yourself
Why do you hide your face from me?
I'm the only one that can save you now
I'm the only one that can save you now
[Bridge]
Lie to yourself, don't lie to me
Lie to yourself, don't hide yourself
Find yourself, let me find you
Find yourself, let me find you
[Chorus]
Hide away
Why do you hide away from me?
Hide yourself away
Why do you hide yourself from me?
I'm the only one that can save you now
I'm the only one that can save you now
Hide away, woah
Hide away
Hide away
Why do you hide yourself away?
I'm the only one that can save you now
I'm the only one that can save you now
Art of War Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Am I the latest
In your art of war?
Thought your hands could heal
But they left me sore
You're so good
At what you think you do to me
You're so good
At what you think you do to me
[Chorus]
There are songs
I'll never write
Because of you
Walking out of my life
There are words
That don't belong
Because of you
I'll never write another love song
[Verse 2]
Was I the greatest
In your arsenal?
Or just the latest
In your art of war, your art of war
You're no good
At what you said you'd do to me
You're no good
At what you said you'd do to me
[Chorus]
There are songs (there are songs)
I'll never write
Because of you
Walking out of my life
There are words (there are words)
That don't belong
Because of you
I'll never write another love song (never write another love song)
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
There are songs (there are songs)
I'll never write
Because of you
Walking out of my life
There are words (there are words)
That don't belong
Because of you
I'll never write another love song (never write another love song)
There are songs
I'll never write
Because of you
Walking out of my life
There are words
That don't belong
Because of you
I'll never write another love song (never write another love song)
To the Wolves Lyrics
[Pre-Chorus]
To the wolves, you left me to the wolves
Thought it was me and you against the world
But you left me to the wolves
[Chorus]
Who needs enemies when we’ve got friends?
Who needs enemies when we’ve got friends like you?
You let me believe that you’re so right
But it’s only in your eyes. In your eyes. In your eyes
(Deceiver) Say you love me but I found lies
(Deceiver) Left me for dead to the wolves alone
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Pre-Chorus x2]
But you left me
[Chorus]
Down Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You would have loved who I used to be
Yesterday I would've hated the boy you see
When you found me I was at my worst
The best I was is a long forgotten curse
[Chorus]
You caught me on my way down
Please hold my hand before I drown
Tie my hands before I burn this town
You caught me on my way down
[Verse 2]
Feel like a shell of yesteryears gone by
Bad decisions like ghosts that just won't die
I'm so sorry that I can't apologize
What comes next is another long goodbye
[Chorus]
You caught me on my way down (honey,honey)
Please hold my hand before I drown
Tie my hands before I burn this town
You caught me on my way down
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
You caught me on my way down (oh honey)
Please hold my hand before I drown
Tie my hands before I burn this town
You caught me on my way down
