we're lost
we don't know who we are
forever lies in pieces
exploding from the start
we've lost we've given up this fight
get me out of this town
away from this sound
i've lost i've given up my fight
get me out of this town
i've got nothing left but this
nightmares bring influence
a disregard for consequence
and it's all i know
how to fail, how to question loss of sleep
force in ten directions
coming down on me
i hate this shining sun
we're all burning away
in these wasted days
we can leave this all behind
i don't want to be
part of this decline

there are far worse things than being alone
but it often takes too many years to know
and when you do it's just too late
there's just nothing worse than no more time
this is paradise
this is paradise
i'm running out of time
and i'm losing my mind
i'm running out of time
but this is paradise
i've lost the time i've lost my mind
we've grown apart i've spent to many years
just sitting back watching nights slow
it's almost two am but i've still got time
this is paradise fuck this paradise

i'm so sick of building walls
only to be torn down
only to be forgotten
we can't believe in what we see
we can't believe in anything
i'm throwing bricks from downtown rooftops
why must the relentless
keep coming incomplete?
i'm throwing bricks from downtown rooftops
only to find that i'm alone
midnight can't sleep again
nothing makes sense to me
sound the alarms
these walls are closing in
i'm losing faith
i can't find anymore space
everything i know
everything i love
just comes and goes

you're living in the past
forced into regret
by your own mind
you're living in the past
forced to forget
the changing times
fuck your glory days
fuck your glory days
the only thing you know
is what's holding you back
familiar faces turned inside out
it's been 20 years
since you lost it all
what's another 45 anyways?
nothing seems to change

years from now we'll be the same
so close yet so far away
and as the seasons change
we slowly fade away
and with each year hope is erased
we're dying slow living wasted lives
we'll all go down without a fight
it doesn't have to be this way
we can break tradition change our ways
we're dying slow living wasted lives
we'll all go down without a fight
so lets break away i've seen better days
it doesn't have to be this way

i've made up my mind i hate this place
no change of seasons no change of days
i'm burning up inside
i can't keep from loosing my mind
fuck the sunshine fuck this state
my home state is haunting me again
florida's fucking failed me
i'm burning up inside
i can't keep from loosing my mind
fuck the sunshine fuck this state
no change of seasons no change of days
i want to get away

my brothers this i dedicate to you
for helping me get through
these long and lonely nights
somehow nothing else seemed so right
to be with you is all i want to do
living for something where each day brings something new
alone in this world without you
were always together
doing nothing more than living without hope
we have hope for this place
somehow we'll all find a way
to make it through these days
we stand together alone
we have hope for this place
somehow we'll all find a way
we're pushing we're trying
shoulder to shoulder
each moment each word
our hopes these dreams
this is our time our words
and this is our song
so sit back and take in the sights
of the city lights maybe the hills
somehow i'm doing what i love
i wish you all knew

my world is changing
the sky used to be so true
i'm losing faith
i can't see any use
the mountains will fall
the seas will rise up
and cover us all
i can't do this on my own
i can't change what we've been shown
we need to merge
and open the minds and eyes
of the ignorant that can't
accept the facts in front of their face
it's too late you've made up your mind
it's already changed for our future kids
wait... there won't be any if it stays like this
you are blinded by tradition
and all the promises they've told
you are blinded by tradition
and all the values you hold

another ninety bucks
down the drain
i can't slow down
14 hours away so put on
"this is just the beginning"
and let it play
as we drive into the night
on a quarter tank of gas
it won't last
but everything is gonna be alright
no not this time around
is what i tell myself
no not this time around
just let the record play
no not this time around
i'm not letting up
no not this time around
just let the record play

chills run up my spine
the forgotten sun won't shine
lonely nights just seem to slow
and they hold me back
they hold me down
we're all stuck on solid ground
the cities fade
as i watch life fall away
out of step and out of mind
your happiness i just can't find
never been the kind to say i'm sorry
never had the time to say goodbye
never will i keep that promise
no i won't ever see the sky

it happened just like that
only seconds to react
feels like hours in the sun
sweating nerves won't stop
the blurring lines right in front of me
i see a life just go like that
but why?
break lights soon end all thoughts
there's no escaping what i saw
repeating again and again
i'll have to learn to feel again
it happened just like that
only seconds to react
feels like hours in the cold
frozen nerves won't stop
the blurring lines right in front of me
i see a life just go like that
but why?
they say everyone has their time
but i just can't believe it
