Back from the dead of winter back from the dead and all our leaves are dry you’re so beautiful, tonight back from the dead we went through back from the dead and both our tongues are tied you look beautiful tonight but every seed dies before it grows breathe it in and let it go every breath you take is not your to own it's not your to hold Do you love me enough to let me go? |

I've got my back against the wall
But I can still hear the blue sky call The chains that hold me back inside Are the prisons of my mind, yeah Free, come set me free Down on my knees I still believe you can save me from me Come set me free Come set me free Inside this shell there's a prison cell Inside this shell there's a prison cell I try to live the light of day Why would I do what I hate? But when try to reach above I only I hurt the ones I love, yeah Free, come set me free Down on my knees I still believe you can save me from me Come set me free Come set me free Inside this shell there's a prison cell There's a hole in the neighborhood Where the shadows fall There's a hole in my heart but my hope Is not in me at all I had a dream that my chains were broken Broken, broken open Free, come set me free Down on my knees I still believe you can save me from me Come set me free, I still believe Inside this shell there's a prison cell Inside this shell there's a prison cell Inside this shell there's a prison cell |

The static comes in slow
You can feel it grow Our stream of conscience flows Under the streets below The rivers made of sound Still running underground Runs like a silent flood We run as thick as blood Can you hear it rise Up from the ground Can't drown it out Can you hear it now? - Chorus - This is the sound of a heartbeat This is the sound from the discontented mouths Of a haunted nation We are the voice of breaking Down Can you hear me? This is the sound of the desperation bound By our own collision We are the voice of breaking Down The static comes alive Beneath the broken skies John Perkins said it right Love is the final fight Let it rise above Rise above There is no song Louder than love This is the sound of a heartbeat This is the sound from the discontented mouths Of a haunted nation We are the voice of breaking Down Can you hear me? This is the sound of the desperation bound By our own collision We are the voice of breaking Down Down Let it rise above up from the ground Can't drown it out Can you hear it now? This is the sound of a heartbeat This is the sound from the discontented mouths Of a haunted nation We are the voice of breaking Down Can you hear me? This is the sound of the desperation bound By our own collision We are the voice of breaking Down This is the sound This is the sound |

Face down with the LA curbside ending
In ones and zeros. Downtown was the perfect place to hide. The first star that I saw last night was a headlight of a man-made sky, but Man-made never made our dreams collide. (chorus) Here we are now with the falling sky and the rain, We're awakening Here we are now with the desperate youth and the pain, We're awakening Maybe it's called ambition, you've been talking in your sleep About a dream, We're awakening Last week found me living for nothing but deadlines, With my dead beat sky but, this town doesn't look the same tonight These dreams started singing to me out of nowhere And I don't know if I've ever felt so alive, alive (chorus) I want to wake up kicking and screaming I want to wake up kicking and screaming I want a heart that I know is beating, It's beating, I'm bleeding. I want to wake up kicking and screaming I want to live like I know what I'm leaving I want a heart that I know is beating, It's beating, I'm bleeding (chorus) |

Mike was right when he said I'd put up
A fight to be someone, a fight to be me But see now, I'm down Under the pavement Of Capitals hills and lowercase people As time rolls by my dreams have become That which is attainable Now what I'm looking for! I've got the company car I'm the one swinging at two below par Yeah, I've become one with the ones That I've never believed in But I've got the company car (Hey)I'm the king of things I've always despised I'm the gingerbread man Who got eaten alive I'm half baked! I'm fake! But see I've got hotels on Park Place and Boardwalk And two hundred bucks I pass go but, oh! Life's taken it's toll Have I won monopoly to forfeit my soul? All the kings horses At the foot of the wall They're taking pictures of The man who's last all of his Masks of pretension He's got two faces left His is the one that he hides On the left behind that smile Hiding tears and fear That burn like an engine It drives him away From the ones that he loves Mike was right: ""Hey Mike! We're one and the same; We're the faceless combatants in the loneliest game"" Ah but say, I'll wave as I'm driving by With that smirk in my eye, yelling ""Hey, I'm something man, check me out!"" |

Bleeding thoughts
Cracking boulder Don't fall over Fake your laughter Burn the tear Sing it louder, Twist and shout Way up here We stand on shoulders Growing colder Laugh or cry I won't mind Sing it louder, Twist and shout Immovable shadows Concrete girl They'll rock your world To nothing And they're swimming Around again, again And they're swimming Around again, again And they're swimming Around the concrete girl Catch your breath Like four leaf clover Hand it over Scream to no one Take your time Sing it louder, Twist and shout Nothing to run from Is worse than something And all your fears Of nothing And they're swimming around Again, again And they're swimming around The concrete girl Concrete girl Don't fall down In this broken world Around you Concrete girl Don't fall down Don't fall down My cocnrete girl Don't stop thinking Don't stop feeling One step away From where we were And one step back To nothing And we're standing on top Of our hopes and fears And we're fighting for words now Concrete girl And we're swimming around Again, again And we're swimming around now Concrete girl |

Please don't be so naive
You know you're not fooling anyone You're not as tough as you think With dirty second hands, dirty second hands Can't get nothing for free It becomes so predictable You start fighting to breathe The dirty second hands, dirty second hands (chorus) Here's the face of everything that breaks you down Now you face the face of everything that breaks you down With an army of me We invent our own enemies Man verses machine And the dirty second hands, the dirty second hands In the land of the free And the home of the remedy The old clock is a thief With dirty second hands, dirty second hands (chorus) Are you really as tough as you think You blink and you're over the brink You bleed but you're blood runs pink With dirty second hands, dirty second hands You're not quite as tough as you thought You bought the American rot The very seed that you thought you shot With dirty second hands, dirty second hands You might be right, the fight might be right Inside you the blind leading the lied, tonight Maybe you bind you with dirty second hands (chorus) |

What makes your rising sun so new?

And millions of faces Are looking for movement 'Cause everything's stuck And everything's frozen And everyone's broken And nobody moves And everyone's scared That the motion will never come This is the incompletion Stuck in a line Love is the movement Love is a revolution This is redemption We don't have to slow back down The stars are alive They dance to the music And all of the world Is singing in time As the heavens are caving in Mysterious ways Why God gave his life To put motion inside my soul It's bigger than cold religion It's bigger than life We're starting now We don't have to slow back down This is a revolution Get up, get up Love is moving you now |

And wondering why the world has passed him by Hoping that he's bent for more than arguments And failed attempts to fly, fly [Chorus] We were meant to live for so much more Have we lost ourselves? Somewhere we live inside Somewhere we live inside We were meant to live for so much more Have we lost ourselves? Somewhere we live inside Dreaming about Providence And whether mice or men have second tries Maybe we've been livin with our eyes half open Maybe we're bent and broken, broken [Chorus] We want more than this world's got to offer We want more than this world's got to offer We want more than the wars of our fathers And everything inside screams for second life, yeah We were meant to live for so much more Have we lost ourselves?

There's a fracture in the color bar In the backseat of a parked car By the liquor store where the streetlight Keep you company 'til the next night In the same town, there's the same scar In the same glow of the liquor store By the freeway, where the headlight Keep her company 'til the next night Oh! Gravity. Why can't we seem to keep it together? Sons of my enemies, Why can't we seem to keep it together? In the back room of the Pentagon There's a thin man with a line drawn With a red jaw and a red bite Watch the headline on the next night Why this tragedy? Why can't we seem to keep it together? In the fallout, the fallout We found out the hype won't get you through We're connected, connected I meant it, the hype won't get you through |

There's a song that's inside of my soul
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again I'm awake in the infinite cold but you sing to me over and over and over again 내 영혼의 깊은 곳에 있는 노래가 있어요. 내가 계속해서 쓰고 또 쓰려고 노력했던 노래죠. 영원할 것 같은 추위 속에 난 깨어나요. 그대, 내게 계속해서 노래를 불러 주겠어요? So I lay my head back down And I lift my hands And pray to be only yours I pray to be only yours I know now you're my only hope 머리를 숙이고, 두 손을 들어 그대 것이 되게 해달라고 기도하죠. 내가 그대의 사랑이 되게 해 달라고 기도해요. 이제 난 알아요. 그대가 나의 유일한 희망이라는 것을. Sing to me the song of the stars Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again When it feels like my dreams are so far Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again 내게 별들의 노래를 불러 주세요. 그대의 우주에서 그 별들은 계속 (환하게) 웃으며 춤을 추고 있죠. 내 꿈이 멀게만 느껴질 때,그대가 나를 위해 세운 계획들을 계속 노래해 주세요. So I lay my head back down And I lift my hands And pray to be only yours I pray to be only yours I know now you''re my only hope 머리를 숙이고, 두 손을 들어 그대 것이 되게 해달라고 기도하죠. 내가 그대의 사랑이 되게 해 달라고 기도해요. 이제 난 알아요. 그대가 나의 유일한 희망이라는 것을. I give you my destiny I'm giving you all of me I want your symphony Singing in all that I am At the top of my lungs I'm giving it back 그대에게 내 운명을 맡겨요. 나는 내 모든 것을 그대에게 주죠. 나는 그대의 교향곡이 되고 싶어요. 있는 힘을 다해 끝까지 노래하는 (교향곡) 내가 그대에게 돌려 줄게요. So I lay my head back down And I lift my hands And pray to be only yours I pray to be only yours I pray to be only yours I know now you''re my only hope 머리를 숙이고, 두 손을 들어 그대 것이 되게 해달라고 기도하죠. 내가 그대의 사랑이 되게 해 달라고 기도해요. 이제 난 알아요. 그대가 나의 유일한 희망이라는 것을 |

Maybe I′ve been the problem
Maybe I′m the one to blame But even when I turn it off and blame myself The outcome feels the same I′ve been thinking maybe I′ve been partly cloudy Maybe I′m the chance of rain And maybe I′m overcast And maybe all my luck′s washed down the drain Chorus: I′ve been thinking ′bout everyone Everyone, you look so lonely But when I look at the stars When I look at the stars When I look at the stars I see someone else When I look at the stars, the stars I feel like myself Stars looking at a planet watching entropy and pain And maybe start to wonder how The chaos in our lives could pass as sane Ive been thinking of the meaning of resistance Of a world beyond my own And suddenly the infinite and penitent Began to look like home Chorus: I′ve been thinking ′bout everyone everyone, you look so empty But when I look at the stars When I look at the stars When I look at the stars I see someone else When I look at the stars, the stars I feel like myself YOW!Everyone everyone you feel so lonely Everyone, yeah, everyone you feel so empty When I look at the stars When I look at the stars When I look at the stars I feel like myself when I look at the stars, the stars I see someone...

It was a beautiful let down
When I crashed and burned When I found myself alone unknown and hurt It was a beautiful let down The day I knew That all the riches this world had to offer me Would never do In a world full of bitter pain and bitter doubt I was trying so hard to fit in, fit in, Until I found out I don't belong here I don't belong here I will carry a cross and a song where I don't belong But I don't belong It was a beautiful let down When you found me here Yeah for once in a rare blue moon I see everything clear I'll be a beautiful let down That's what I'll forever be And though it may cost my soul I'll sing for free We're still chasin our tails and the rising sun And our dark water planet's Still spinning in a race Where no one wins and no one's one I don't belong here I don't belong here I'm gonna set sight and set sail for the kingdom come I will carry a cross and a song where I don't belong But i don't belong I don't belong here I don't belong here Kingdom come Your kingdom come Won't you let me down yeah Let my foolish pride Forever let me down Easy living, not much like your name Easy dying, you look just about the same Won't you please take me off your list Easy living please come on and let me down We are a beautiful let down, Painfully uncool, The church of the dropouts The losers, the sinners, the failures and the fools Oh what a beautiful let down Are we salt in the wound Let us sing one true tune I don't belong here I don't belong here I don't belong here Feels like I don't belong here Let me down Let me down Feels like I'm let down Let me down. Cuz I don't belong here Please Won't you let me down? |

You been waking up at 4:12 You roll the voices over in your head And you try to put them neatly on the shelf You watch the sun rise Saw the darkness had no choice before the dawn With your own eyes And then you broke out laughing from a yawn I'm so sorry I've been so down I started doubting things could ever turn around And I began to believe that all we are is material It's nonsensical So you walk outside and everything's new You're looking at the world with new eyes As if you'd never seen the sky before this blue As if you've never seen the sky in your whole life And then the phone rings As it turns out you are already late And now you're wondering Is peace just a temporary state? Waiting tables and parking cars You've been selling cell phones at the shopping mall And you began to believe that all we are is material It's nonsensical I'm so sorry I've been so down I started doubting things could ever turn around But I still can't believe that all we are And that all of our dreams are nothing more than material Souls aren't built of stone, sticks, and bones Souls aren't built of stone Souls aren't built of stone, sticks, and bones |

In ones and zeros. Downtown was the perfect place to hide. The first star that I saw last night was a headlight of a man-made sky, but Man-made never made our dreams collide. (chorus) Here we are now with the falling sky and the rain, We're awakening Here we are now with the desperate youth and the pain, We're awakening Maybe it's called ambition, you've been talking in your sleep About a dream, We're awakening Last week found me living for nothing but deadlines, With my dead beat sky but, this town doesn't look the same tonight These dreams started singing to me out of nowhere And I don't know if I've ever felt so alive, alive (chorus) I want to wake up kicking and screaming I want to wake up kicking and screaming I want a heart that I know is beating, It's beating, I'm bleeding.

If we only got one try If we've only got one life If time was never on our side Before I die I want to burn out bright I keep cleaning up the mess I've made I keep cleaning up the mess I've made I won't run away I can't sleep in the bed I've made I can't sleep in the bed I've made If we only got one try If we've only got one life If time was never on our side Before I die I want to burn out bright |

This one's about a dream
I had last night How an old man tracked me home And stepped inside Put his foot inside the door And gave a crooked smile Something in his eyes Something in his laugh Something in his voice Made my skin crawl off He said "I've seen you here before I know your name You could have your pick Of pretty things You could have it all Everything at once Everything you've seen Everything you'll need Everything you've ever had in fantasies" "You've one life You've one life You've one life left to leave You've one life You've one life You've one life left to leave." I woke up from my dream As a golden man With a girl I've never seen With Golden skin I jumped up to my feet And she asked me what was wrong And I began to scream I don't think this is me Is this just a dream? Or really happening You've one life You've one life You've one life left to leave You've one life You've one life You've one life left to leave What direction What direction I'm splitting up I'm splitting up This is my personal disaffection What direction What Direction What Direction now I looked outside the glass At golden shores Golden ships and masts With golden cords As my reflection passed I hated what I saw My Golden eyes were dead And a thought passed through my head A heart that's made of gold can't really beat at all I wanted to wake up again I wanted to wake up again Without a touch of gold Without a touch of gold What direction (what direction) What direction (what direction) What direction (what direction) What direction (death or action!) Life begins at the intersection What direction What direction What direction now I woke up as before But the gold was gone My wife was at the door With her night robe on My heart beat once or twice And life flooded my veins Everything had changed My lungs had found their voice And what was once routine Was now the perfect joy You've one life You've one life You've One life left to leave You've one life You've one life You've one life left to lead |

Head over here and take me
Head over heels and aching When I told you I was yours I was yours In this life, you?re the one place I call home In this life, you?re the feeling I belong In this life, you?re the flower and the thorn You?re everything that?s fair in love and war I?m coming down like a gunshot In all these battles that I?ve fought You?re the mark I?m aiming for I was yours In this life, you?re the one place I call home In this life, you?re the feeling I belong In this life, you?re the flower and the thorn You?re everything that?s fair in love and war In love and war Head over heels Head over heels In this life, I?m stubborn to the core In this life, I?ve been burning after more We both know what these open arms are for You?re everything that?s fair In this life, you?re my only one In this life, you?re my only one In this life, you?re my only one In this life, you?re my only one In this life, you?re the one place I call home In this life, you?re the feeling I belong In this life, you?re the flower and the thorn You?re everything that?s fair in love and war |

In this world of news, I've found nothing new
I've found nothing pure Maybe I'm just idealistic to assume that truth Could be fact and form That love could be a verb Maybe I'm just a little misinformed As the dead moon rises, and the freeways sigh Let the trains watch over the tides and the mist Spinning circles in our skies tonight Let the trucks roll in from Los Angeles Maybe our stars are unanimously tired (chorus) Let your love be strong, and I don't care what goes down Let your love be strong enough to weather through the thunder cloud Fury and thunder clap like stealing the fire from your eyes All of my world hanging on your love Let the wars begin, let my strength wear thin Let my fingers crack, let my world fall apart Train the monkeys on my back to fight Let it start tonight When my world explodes, when my stars touch the ground Falling down like broken satellites (chorus) All of my world resting on your love |

There's a fracture in the color bar In the backseat of a parked car By the liquor store where the streetlight Keep you company 'til the next night In the same town, there's the same scar In the same glow of the liquor store By the freeway, where the headlight Keep her company 'til the next night Oh! Gravity. Why can't we seem to keep it together? Sons of my enemies, Why can't we seem to keep it together? In the back room of the Pentagon There's a thin man with a line drawn With a red jaw and a red bite Watch the headline on the next night Why this tragedy? Why can't we seem to keep it together? In the fallout, the fallout We found out the hype won't get you through We're connected, connected I meant it, the hype won't get you through |

Flowers cut and brought inside
Black cars in a single line Your family in suits and ties And you're free The ache I feel inside Is where the life has left your eyes I'm alone for our last goodbye But you're free I remember you like yesterday Yesterday I still can't believe you're gone Oh I remember you like yesterday Yesterday And until I'm with you, I'll carry on Adrift on your ocean floor I feel weightless numb and sore A part of you and me is torn You're free I woke from a dream last night I dreamt that you were by my side Reminding me I still had life In me I remember you like yesterday Yesterday I still can't believe you're gone Oh I remember you like yesterday Yesterday And until I'm with you, I'll carry on I'll carry on, I'll carry on Every lament is a love song Yesterday, yesterday I still can't believe you're gone Every lament is a love song Yesterday, yesterday So long my friend, so long |

Maybe I've been the problem Maybe I'm the one to blame But even when I turn it off and blame myself The outcome feels the same I've been thinkin' maybe I've been partly cloudy Maybe I'm the chance of rain And maybe I'm overcast and maybe All my luck's washed down the drain I've been thinkin' 'bout everyone, everyone you look so lonely But when I look at the stars, When I look at the stars, When I look at the stars I see someone else When I look at the stars, the stars I feel like myself Stars looking at our planet, Watching entropy and pain And maybe startin' to wonder How the chaos in our lives could pass as sane I've been thinkin' 'bout the meaning of resistance Of a world beyond our own And suddenly the infinite and penitent Began to look like home I've been thinkin' 'bout everyone, everyone you look so empty But when I look at the stars, When I look at the stars, When I look at the stars I see someone else When I look at the stars, the stars I feel like myself Stars... Stars... Everyone, everyone you feel so lonely Everyone, ya everyone you feel so empty When I look at the stars, When I look at the stars, When I look at the stars I feel like myself When I look at the stars, the stars I see someone

She's alone tonight,
With a bitter cup and, She's undone tonight, She's all used up, She's been staring down the demons, Who've been screaming she's just another so and so, Another so and so You are golden, You are golden, Child You are golden, (Don't let go,) (Don't let go tonight) There's a fear that burns, Like trash inside And you're ashamed of the curse, That burns your eyes You've been hiding in your bedroom, Hoping this isn't how the story has to go It's not the way it goes, It's your book now, You're, Golden, You are golden, Child You are golden, (Don't let go,) (Don't let go tonight) You're a lonely soul, Inlet of broken hearts You're far from home, It's a perfect place to start (Yeah!) (Burn,) (Burn, Burn!) So this final verse, Is a contradiction And the more we learn, The less we know We've been talkin' about a feeling, We both know inside but couldn't find the words I couldn't write this verse, I've seldom been so sure, About anything before Golden, You are Golden, Child You are Golden, (Don't let go,) (Don't let go tonight) This world is a dead man down (Golden, you are,) Every breath is a singing crown away, (Golden, Child, you are,) Like some debilitated king, (Golden, don't let go,) Don't let go tonight Earth Spins and your mind goes round' (Golden, you are,) Green comes on the frozen ground, (Golden, Child, you are,) And everything will be made new again, (Golden,) Like freedom and spring, (Golden, Golden,) Hey, like freedom and spring, (Golden, you are, hey,) Like freedom and spring (Golden, Child, you are,) |
