And baby don't follow their lead
'Cause you'll never know
Just how the story ends, or how the story goes
And you are so confused
And baby it's just like you
to say anything else

Whenever you get this way
Just getting up for the let down,
Mmm here they come and they're here to stay
Just getting up for the let down

Oh I'm here to say that you're the star you want to be
Just open up and look inside and you will see, yeah

Someday you'll sing it out loud
One day this will make you proud
Whoa oh, "I know..."
Whoa oh

And baby don't follow their lead
'cause you never know
Just how the story ends, or how the story goes
And you are so confused,
And baby its just like you
to say anything else

It's time for you to understand
Stop getting up for the let down
Oh, who you want is not up to them
Stop getting up for the let down

And I'm here to say that you're the star you want to be
Just open up and look inside, you will see

Someday you'll sing it out loud
One day this will make you proud
Whoa oh, "I know..."
Whoa oh

Someday you'll sing it out loud
One day this will make you proud
Whoa oh, "I know..."
Whoa oh

So say what you want
(You know I'm wasting all my time)
Gotta mean it when you say what you want
(You're only safe when you're alone)
And everybody's on your mind
Saying anything to get you by

And so to get what you want
(You know I'm wasting all my time)
You gotta mean it
(You're only safe when you're alone)
And when you say what you want
Your wasting everybody's time
Your saying anything that gets you by

It's not, not, not gonna get you,
gonna get you by

Some day you'll sing it out loud
One day this will make you proud
Whoa oh, "I know..."
"I know..." is never good enough

Someday you'll sing it out loud
One day this will make you proud
Whoa oh, "I know..."
Whoa oh
Whoa oh, "I Know..."
"I know..." is never good enough

Please don't mind what I'm trying to say 'cause I'm, I'm being honest
When I tell you that you
You, You're part of the reason I'm so set on the rest of my life
Being a part of you
You tell me what you think about being open,
About being honest with yourself

Cause things will never be the same.

So I guess I'll see you, I'll see you around
I'm spinning, while I'm falling down
Now you know why I'm begging you to stay

Don't waste time getting to the point, 'cause I'm, I'm patiently waiting
For your next phone call, your next excuse for losing sleep again
Tell me what you think about being open,
About being honest with yourself

Cause things will never be the same.

So I guess I'll see you, I'll see you around
I'm spinning, while I'm falling down
Now you know why I'm begging you to stay

Cause I can't stop it now
It's so amazing how
I know I can't, I could never walk away

How can we resolve this now?
We let it go, and wonder how
This can ever be the same
(Can never be the)
Can ever be the same

So I guess I'll see you, I'll see you around
I'm spinning, I'm while falling down
Now you know why I'm begging you, I'm begging!

Cause I can't stop it now,
It's so amazing how,
I know I can't, I could never walk away!

Please don't mind what I'm trying to say 'cause I'm, I'm being honest.

Face down; this is where it leads you - too far.
Buried covered now, you'll find peace - in the earth aground.
Stop now, there's no point in breathing - it's not allowed.
On the surface, how can you find - reason to move on?

Until then you can runaway.
Do you best to hide your face.
And oh I know you best;
I know you get what you get - you get what you deserve.

Hush now, yeah don't say a word - its out in the open,
And tell me how can you deal with all this wait?
Speak now, you must have a secret kept down,
Down where you can keep it - I need you to spill your guts.

Until then you can runaway,
Do you best to hide your face.
And oh I know you best.
I know you get what you get - until then you can runaway.
Do your best to hide your face.
And oh I know you best.
I know you get what you get you - get what you deserve.

Speak now you must have a secret kept down,
Down where you can keep it - I need you to spill your guts.

Until then you can runaway,
Do your best to hide your face.
And oh I know you best.
I know you get what you get - until then you can runaway.

Do your best to hide your face.
And oh I know you best,
I know you get what you get and all you get what you,
You get what you get, you get what you,
You get what you get, you get what you deserve.

Here it goes again,
Put on that deserving tone
And don't forget that this was all your fault.
It's breathing down your neck,
You know you've got to let this go.
You're such a wreck and now it starts to show.

Cause all you can't deny
Is all held inside
And when we go, we say goodbye,
And then we run,
We run away.

Cause all we can't deny is just a lie.
And when we try to just get by
We just can't get past ourselves.

Cause where you are is where you'll be:
Always wanting everything.
It's all the same that you can't ignore
Cause all you want is just "to be more".

It's creeping up again.
(It's all to be considered.)
(It's a game and you're not the winner)
It's a haunting memory.

Cause all you can't deny
Is all held inside
And when we go, We say goodbye
And then we run,
We run away.

Cause all we can't deny is just a lie.
And when we try to just get by
We just can't get past ourselves.

Cause where you are is where you'll be:
Always wanting everything.
It's all the same- that you can't ignore
Cause all you want is just "to be more".

Cause who you are is who you'll be,
And that is really everything.
It's all the same that you can relate.
Cause what you want's not what you're getting.
It's just a matter of time, It's just a matter of time.
It's just a matter of time, It's just a matter of time-
'Til you know you'll be somebody tonight.

And stay up all night and sleep all day,
We were smart kids with too much to say.
We were so, so sure that they were missing out,
They're the ones missing out, and
We were elemental, took down to bear essentials,
Who knew we'd get so far?

Cause our days were numbered by nights on too many rooftops.
They said we'd burn so bright.
We burn this city and go.

Play it again, oh.
There's no such thing (no there's never too much).
And we were so, so sure, oh we never had a doubt.
Now were counting days to getting out.

We were elemental, took down to bear essentials.
Who knew we'd get so far?

Cause our days were numbered by nights on too many rooftops.
They said we're wasting our lives,
Oh at least we know, that if we die, we lived with passion.
They said we'd burn so bright.
We burn this city and go.

Pack our bags and get away, they're catching on to us. [Repeat x2]
Pack our bags and get away, they're catching on to us. [Repeat x2]

Cause our days were numbered by nights on too many rooftops.
They said we're wasting our lives,
Oh at least we know, that if we die, we lived with passion.
They said we'd burn so bright.
We burn this city, and go.

Let's count the days
Til winter comes our way
We're all tired and ready to breathe
And there's a rumor that there's
A bitter cold chill in the air
It's haunting every breath we take
The hint of alcohol and nicotine
It keeps us warm inside
So all your fashion sense aware
The sweaters unfold themselves
We are all alone
But we're better off by ourselves

it's time to roll the windows down
And feel the cold air all around
We are heading out of town
And not a thing can stop us now
Get carried away

Let's think about
All those nights on Luckie st.
We stayed up til 3 am
With all the gossip and the latest girls
There's a bitter cold chill in the air
It's haunting every breath we take
The hint of alcohol and nicotine
It keeps us warm inside
So all your fashion sense aware
The sweaters unfold themselves
We are all alone
But we're better off by ourselves

This winter is much like all the rest
This season's changed
Since we've been away

It was just a few years in the making now.
The two were locked in a heated dispute,
Cause he was gone when she needed him more.
Then she could really ever let on to.

They were the poster perfect high school sweethearts,
But moving out can't erase the time.
The two had spent on working it out and
Everybody knew that they were out of their minds.

Oh, you really need to settle down,
And let it go.
You really need settle down,
You really need to let it go.

Consider this, he was moving on while
She was busy trying to pass the time
Between the previous and next nervous breakdown.
The girl had given up the love of her life.
And all the time that she was givin' up slowly
he didn't notice when she ran away
and when it came the funny letting him on
well this is every single word she'd say

Oh, you really need to settle down,
And let it go.
You really need settle down,
No you really need to let it go.
For good, forget his lies
It's the only way to save your life.
Cause this is restitution
For the love you've thrown away.

Just say you left me like you could.
Oh, oh you said you never would.
Just say it's done, and be gone.
Just say it's done, and be gone.

Let it go!
You really need settle down,
And let it go!
You really need to settle down,
You really need to let it go.
For good, forget his lies,
It's the only way to save your life.
Cause this is restitution
For the love you've thrown away.

It's time to go, this is goodbye
She said "does it ever get easier to live like this"
And kiss the cheek
Well I can't kiss you anymore
And I, I would honestly love you now
But I would lovingly let you down

Oh I have the hardest time resisting you
And oh if you
If you feel the same way then how can we be friends
He's right you know

We can't go on like this
And oh I try to give you everything
And if I fail well then I failed
But at least I gave you something

I could put my trust in giving up the heart
It makes the difference
And how can you afford to settle down
When I, I would promise to love you now
But I would lovingly let you down

Oh I have the hardest time resisting you
And oh if you
If you feel the same way then how can we be friends
He's right you know, we can't go on like this

And oh I try to give you everything
And if I fail well then I failed
But at least I gave you something

(it's better than silence, give me one good reason)

It's better than silence
Give me one good reason
To leave this in silence
No you don't have a good reason

If you feel the same way then how can we be friends
He's right you know, we can't go on like this
And oh I try to give you everything
And if I fail well then I failed
But at least I gave you something

It's better than silence
It's better than silence

Reaching out
Can you hear me
I said I'm reaching out
But no one's near me

And through all this I've been reaching out blindly
And so it comes down and I don't know anything
It always comes around
And fighting always seems just like

That I'll never know
And you never will
Still I'll never know
And you won't find out
Until someone stands out
Then you'll get some answers

Well here goes nothing yeah I'm standing up
And I'll get nothing if it's not enough
And they won't say what they're holding back from us
And so it comes down and I don't know anything
It always comes around
And fighting always seems just like

[Repeat: x2]
That I'll never know
And you never will
Still I'll never know
And you won't find out
Until someone stands out
Then you'll get some answers

I'll tell you this is something that you'll never hear
They knew it then and they've been holding back for years
And if you're not getting answers ask better questions...

[Repeat: x2]
That I'll never know
And you never will
Still I'll never know
And you won't find out
Until someone stands out
Then you'll get some answers

And you can take this however you want
Yeah you can take this however you want
Don't be so so sure this is all it adds up to, you
You're justified
But there's no justice if it's just a lie
No, go and find yourself
You will if you look inside
And I'll never know
And you never will
Still I'll never know
And you won't find out
Until someone stands out
Then you'll get some answers
We know there's an answer
We know now that we have to find it by ourselves

And you can take this however you want
Yeah you can take this however you want
Just don't waste your breath unless you can save us
And tell me can you
Can you save us?
Can you save?
Can you save us?
This can't go on without the meaning in the rhyme
Can you save?
Can you save us?
I can't go on
Out of rhythm with our time

Our days were numbered by nights on too many rooftops
They said were wasting our lives
Oh at least we know that if we died
We lived with passion
They said we burned so bright

We run and we run
We know there's an answer
We know by going home we can find it by ourselves

When want you want is what you're getting
(they're catching onto us)
When all you can do is hide
(don't be afraid)

Oh maybe you can save us
When all we can do is hide

Oh
(we know there's an answer, we know by going home we can find it by ourselves)
