Track Lyrics
So Cold Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Crowded streets all cleared away, one by one
Hollow heroes separate, as they run
You're so cold, keep your hand in mine
Wise men wonder while strong men die
[Chorus]
Show me how it ends, it's all right
Show me how defenseless you really are
Satisfied and empty inside
Well, that's all right
Let's give this another try
[Verse 2]
If you find your family, don't you cry
In this land of make-believe, dead and dry
You're so cold, but you feel alive
Lay your hand on me, one last time
[Chorus]
Show me how it ends, it's all right
Show me how defenseless you really are
Satisfied and empty inside
Well, that's all right
Let's give this another try
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Show me how it ends, it's all right
Show me how defenseless you really are
Satisfied and empty inside
Well, that's all right
Let's give this another try
[Outro]
It's all right
It's all right
It's all right
It's all right
It's all right
It's all right
It's all right
It's all right
It's all right
Simple Design Lyrics
[Intro]
Yeah!
[Verse 1]
I live a chemical life
I'm on a mission to try
You went insane for the day
I'll have to shove it away
My only option is gone
Smile as they break and they fall
You want a simpler life
You can't erase what was mine
[Pre-Chorus]
You must be out of your mind
This was a simple design
You fuck it up every time
How could you leave me behind?
[Chorus]
It's all right, it's all right
'Cause I know what you want
But you'll just have to wait
If I had it to give
I would give it away
I'm living it up
While I'm falling from grace
There's no way, there's no way
That I'm running away
[Verse 2]
I'm used to making it worse
Made up of four-letter words
You want know what it was
Now isolated and gone
You fall apart at the seams
I'll never know what it means
Try not to pull it apart
You're aiming straight for the heart
[Pre-Chorus]
You must be out of your mind
This was a simple design
You fuck it up every time
How could you leave me behind?
[Chorus]
It's all right, it's all right
'Cause I know what you want
But you'll just have to wait
If I had it to give
I would give it away
I'm living it up
While I'm falling from grace
There's no way, there's no way
That I'm running away
[Bridge]
You had to be
The worst for me
I don't know what to say, so let me be
And now I find
You've left me behind
I don't know what to say, so never mind
You're mine
[Chorus]
'Cause I know what you want
But you'll just have to wait
If I had it to give
I would give it away
I'm living it up
While I'm falling from grace
There's no way, there's no way
That I'm running away
There's no way, there's no way
That I'm running away
[Outro]
Yeah!
Go!
Follow Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm losing sight, don't count on me
I chase the sun, it chases me
[Pre-Chorus]
You know my name, you know my face
You'd know my heart if you knew my place
I'll walk straight down, as far as I can go
[Chorus]
I'll follow you; you follow me
I don't know why you lie so clean
I'll break right through the irony
[Verse 2]
Enlighten me, reveal my fate
Just cut these strings that hold me safe
[Pre-Chorus]
You know my head, you know my gaze
You'd know my heart if you knew your place
I'll walk straight down, as far as I can go
[Chorus]
I'll follow you; you follow me
I don't know why you lie so clean
I'll break right through the irony
[Bridge]
Cure this wait
I, I hate this wait
[Chorus]
I'll follow you; you follow me
I don't know why you lie so clean
I'll break right through the irony
Firefly Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You, my friend
You're a lot like them
But I caught your lie
And you know I did
Now I'm lost in you
Like I always do
And I'll die to win
Cause I'm born to lose
[Chorus]
Firefly
Could you shine your light?
Now I love your ways
'Cause they're just like mine
Now I'm justified
As I fall in line
And it's hard to try
When you're open wide
[Verse 2]
Take my hand
We'll be off and then
We'll come back again
To a different land
Now I like this way
You can go away
If you guess the name
You cannot replace
[Chorus]
Firefly
Could you shine your light?
Now I love your ways
'Cause they're just like mine
Now I'm justified
As I fall in line
And it's hard to try
When you're open wide
[Bridge]
Bring me your enemies
Lay them before me
And walk away
Walk away
Walk away!
[Chorus]
Firefly
Could you shine your light?
Now I love your ways
'Cause they're just like mine
Now I'm justified
As I fall in line
And it's hard to try
When you're open wide
Fuck you, firefly
Have you lost your light?
Now I hate your ways
'Cause they're just like mine
So you lost, my friend
Such a sorry end
And I don't know why
So I choke and smile
[Outro]
Smile!
Break My Fall Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You fought me once, but not again
Let me feel your heavy hand
I will clean your fuckin' mess
And leave no trace of evidence
[Chorus]
I am losing you again
Let me out and let me in
'Cause you're not alone here, not at all
Let me belong here; break my fall
[Verse 2]
Shelter me from this again
Dedicated to the end
Help me break my conscience in
To free us from our innocence
[Chorus]
I am losing you again
Let me out and let me in
'Cause you're not alone here, not at all
Let me belong here; break my fall
[Bridge]
"Mayday, mayday
Requesting permission to land
I cannot control the plane
We are in danger of crashing"
[Chorus]
I am losing you again
Let me out and let me in
'Cause you're not alone here, not at all
Let me belong here; break my fall
[Outro]
Break my fall
Break my fall
Break my fall
Break my fall
Break my fall
Forget It Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's a crime, you let it happen to me
Never mind, I let it happen to you
I don't mind, forget it; there's nothing to lose
But my mind and all the things I wanted
[Verse 2]
Every time I get it, throw it away
It's a sign, I get it; I wanna stay
By the time I lose it, I'm not afraid
I'm alive, but I can surely fake it
[Pre-Chorus]
How can I believe
When this cloud hangs over me?
You're the part of me
That I don't wanna see
[Chorus]
Forget it, forget it, forget it
Forget it, forget it, forget it, forget it
Forget it, forget it, forget it, forget it
Forget it, forget it, forget it
[Verse 3]
There's a place I see you follow me
Just a taste of all that might come to be
I'm alone, but holding breath you can breathe
To question every answer counted
[Bridge]
Just fade away (Forget it, forget it, forget it)
Please let me stay (Forget it, forget it, forget it, forget it)
Caught in your way (Forget it, forget it, forget it, forget it)
Forget it, forget it, forget it, forget it
Just fade away (Forget it, forget it, forget it, forget it)
Please let me stay (Forget it, forget it, forget it, forget it)
Caught in your way (Forget it, forget it, forget it, forget it)
Forget it, forget it, forget it
[Verse 4]
It's a crime you let it happen to me
I don't mind, I love it, easy to please
Never mind, forget it; just memory
On a page inside a spiral notebook
[Bridge]
Just fade away
Please let me stay
Caught in your way
I can live forever here
Just fade away (Forget it, forget it, forget it, forget it)
Please let me stay (Forget it, forget it, forget it, forget it)
Caught in your way (Forget it, forget it)
I can live forever here
[Chorus]
How can I believe
(Forget it, forget it)
When this cloud hangs over me?
You're the part of me
(Forget it, forget it)
That I don't wanna see
[Outro]
I can live forever here
Sooner or Later Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I want a normal life, just like a newborn child
I am a lover-hater, I am an instigator
You are an oversight, don't try to compromise
I learn to love to hate it; I am not integrated
[Pre-Chorus]
Just call my name, you'll be okay
Your scream is burning through my veins
[Chorus]
Sooner or later, you're gonna hate it
Go ahead and throw your life away
Driving me under, leaving me out there
Go ahead and throw your life away
[Verse 2]
You're like an infantile, I knew it all the while
You sit and try to play me, just like you see on TV
I am an oversight, just like a parasite
Why am I so pathetic? I know you won't forget
[Pre-Chorus]
Just call my name, you'll be okay
Your scream is burning through my veins
[Chorus]
Sooner or later, you're gonna hate it
Go ahead and throw my life away
Driving me under, leaving me out there
Go ahead and throw my life away
Sooner or later, you're gonna hate it
Go ahead and throw our life away
Driving me under, leaving me out there
Go ahead and throw our life away
[Outro]
Throw our life away
Throw our life away
Breakdown Lyrics
[Intro]
Breakdown!
[Verse 1]
Let the fun and games begin
She is spayed and broken in
Skin is cold and white
Such a lovely, lonely night
[Pre-Chorus]
Heaven is on the way
You could feel the hate
But I guess you never will
I'm on a roll again
And I want an end
'Cause I feel you creeping in
[Chorus]
What I've found in this town
I'm headed for a breakdown
What's that sound? You're so loud
I'm headed for a breakdown
[Verse 2]
Drank up all my alcohol
This is not a free-for-all
I'll be there for you
Till my heart is black and blue
[Pre-Chorus]
Heaven is on the way
You could feel the hate
But I guess you never will
I'm on a roll again
And I want an end
'Cause I feel you creeping in
[Chorus]
What I've found in this town
I'm headed for a breakdown
What's that sound? You're so loud
I'm headed for a breakdown
[Outro]
You blacked out, you're so proud
I'm headed for a breakdown
What's that sound, you're so loud
I'm headed for a breakdown
No!
Away Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Cold am I
I'm beside myself
Because there's no one else
Have I grown
So blind
Only God could save you
If you knew your way to the light
[Pre-Chorus]
So fly away
And leave it behind
Just stay awake
There's nowhere to hide
[Chorus]
I see you, 'cause you won't get out of my way
I hear you, 'cause you won't quit screaming my name
I feel you, 'cause you won't stop touching my skin
I need you, they're coming to take you away
[Verse 2]
Frail and dry
I could lose it all
But I cannot recall it all
Wrong, don't cry
Clear away this hate
And we can start to make it all right
[Pre-Chorus]
So fly away
And leave it behind
Return someday
With red in your eyes
[Chorus]
I see you, 'cause you won't get out of my way
I hear you, 'cause you won't quit screaming my name
I feel you, 'cause you won't stop touching my skin
I need you, they're coming to take you away
[Chorus]
I see you, 'cause you won't get out of my way
I hear you, 'cause you won't quit screaming my name
I feel you, 'cause you won't stop touching my skin
I need you, they're coming to take you away
Believe Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Don't tread the water, just stay still
I'll not be bothered by you until
I'm picking sides and pulling the strings
I'm living lies and shedding the skin
I'm open wide and letting you in
I'm wronging rights
[Chorus]
Believe
I don't care what you want; I just want mine
Shut up, smart little bitch; I don't need lies
I don't care what you want; I just want mine
Get up, force it to fit
Confined inside
[Verse 2]
Don't pull me under into the deep
I often wonder how it should be
I'm picking sides and pulling the strings
I'm living lies and shedding the skin
I'm open wide and letting you in
I'm wronging rights
[Chorus]
Believe
I don't care what you want; I just want mine
Shut up, smart little bitch; I don't need lies
I don't care what you want; I just want mine
Get up, force it to fit
Confined inside
Believe
I don't care what you want; I just want mine
Shut up, smart little bitch; I don't need lies
I don't care what you want; I just want mine
Get up, force it to fit
Confined inside
[Outro]
My dead eyes
Rain Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Take a photograph, it'll be the last
Not a dollar or a crowd could ever keep me here
I don't have a past, I just have a chance
Not a family or honest plea remains to say
[Chorus]
Rain, rain, go away
Come again another day
All the world is waiting for the sun
[Verse 2]
Is it you I want or just the notion of
A heart to wrap around so I can find my way around?
Safe to say from here, you're getting closer now
We are never sad, 'cause we are not allowed to be
[Chorus]
Rain, rain, go away
Come again another day
All the world is waiting for the sun
[Bridge]
To lie here under you is all that I could ever do
To lie here under you is all...
[Chorus]
Rain, rain, go away
Come again another day
All the world is waiting for the sun
