I use the dead would to make the fire rise
The blood of innocence burning in the skies
I filled my cup with the rising of the sea
And poured it out in an ocean of debris

Oooooh, I’m swimming in the smoke
Of bridges I have burned
So don’t apologize
I’m losing what I don’t deserve
What I don’t deserve

We held our breathe when the clouds began to form
But you were lost in the beating of the storm
But in the end we were meant to be apart
In separate chambers of the human heart

Oooo I’m swimming in the smoke of bridges I have burned
So don’t apologize
I’m losing what I don’t deserve
It’s in the blackened bones of bridges I have burned
So don’t apologize
I’m losing what I don’t deserve
What I don’t deserve

guitar solo

I’m swimming in the smoke of bridges I have burned
So don’t apologize I’m losing what I don’t deserve
The blame is mine alone for bridges I have burned
So don’t apologize I’m losing what I don’t deserve
What I don’t deserve
What I don’t deserve ooooh whooo oh
What I don’t deserve

Here’s the dead wood to make the fire rise
The blood of innocence burning in the skies

When you were standing in the wake of devastation
You were waiting on the edge of the unknown
With the cataclysm raining down
Inside’s crying save me now
You were there impossibly alone

Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
You build up hope but failure’s all you’ve known
Remember all the sadness and frustration
And let it go, let it go

And in a burst of light that blinded every angel
As if the sky had blown the heavens into stars
You felt the gravity of tempered grace
Falling into empty space
No one there to catch in their arms

Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
You build up hope but failure’s all you’ve known
Remember all the sadness and frustration
And let it go let it go

Choir
Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
You build up hope but failure’s all you’ve known
Remember all the sadness and frustration
And let it go

Let it go (repeat)

Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
You build up hope but failure’s all you’ve known
Remember all the sadness and frustration
And let it go let it go

I’m stuck in this bed you made
Alone with a sinking feeling
I saw through the words you said
To the secrets you’ve been keeping
It’s written upon your face
All the lies how they cut so deeply
You can’t get enough you take
And take and take and never say

No, you’ve gotta get it inside
You push it back down
You push it back down
No you’ll never get it inside
Push it back down Black out Blood in your eye

You say that it’s not your fault
And swear that I am mistaken
You said it’s not what it seems
No remorse for the trust you’re breaking
You run but then back you fall
Suffocate in the mess you’re making
You can’t get enough you take
And take and take and take and take
Fuck it Are you listening?

No, you’ve gotta get it inside
You push it back down
You push it back down
No you’ll never get it inside
Push it back down
You push it back down
No you’ve gotta get it inside
You push it back down
You push it back down
No you’ll never get it inside
Push it back down
Black out Blood in your eye

Floating down, as colors fill the light
We look up from the ground
in fields of paperwhite
And floating up you pass us in the night
A future gazing out a past to overwrite
So come down far below
We’ve been waiting to collect the things you know
Come down far below We’ve been waiting to collect what you’ve let go

Come down
Oh

You say
You’re not gonna fight
‘Cause no one will fight for you

And
You think
There’s not enough love
And no one to give it to

And
You’re sure
You’ve hurt for so long
You’ve got nothing left to lose

So
You say
You’re not gonna fight
‘Cause no one will fight for you

You say
The weight of the world
Has kept you from letting go

And
You think
Compassion’s a fault
And you’ll never let it show

And
You’re sure
You’ve hurt in a way
That no one will ever know

But
Some day
The weight of the world
Will give you the strength to go

Hold on
The weight of the world
Will give you the strength to go

So
Hold on
The weight of the world
Will give you the strength to go

So
Hold on
The weight of the world
Will give you the strength to go

Just
Hold on
The weight of the world
Will give you the strength to go

Yeah,
i am not a pattern to be followed
the pill that i’m on
is a tough one to swallow
i’m not a criminal
not a robano
not a born leader
i’m a tough act to follow

i am not a fortunate of fame
in the same verse i’m telling you to forfeit the game
i came in the ring like a dog on a chain
and i found out the underbelly is sicker than it seems
and its seems ugly, but it can get worse,
cos’ even the blueprint is a gift and a curse
cos’ once you have the theory of how the thing works
everybody wants the next thing to be just like the first

i’m not a robot
i’m not a monkey
i will not dance even if the beat’s funky
opposite of lazy, far from a parkyard
stop talking, everyones gonna have to catch up mother f-cker

and all the people say
aaaaaaaaaaah aaaaaaaah aaaaaaah

trying to catch up mother f-cker

aaaaaaaaaaah aaaaaaaaah aaaaaaah

mum said money changes situations
big said it increases the complication
kane said don’t stab, i ain’t the one
chuck said that doozie weigh a mother f-cking tonne
and i’m just a student of the game that they taught
rocking every stage and every place that they brought me
i’m often underrated
and also corrected

and so this second i’m gonna save it for the record
i am the opposite of wack
opposite of weak
opposite of slack
standing in the heat

standing in a crack

closest to a beat, far from a front yard
stop talking, everyones gonna have to catch up mother f-cker
and all the people say
aaaaaaaaaaah aaaaaaaah aaaaaaah

trying to catch up mother f-cker

aaaaaaaaaaah aaaaaaaaah aaaaaaah

oh when they come for me
come for me
i’ll be gone

oh when they come for me
come for me
i’ll be gone

oh when they come for me
come for me
i’ll be gone

and all the people say
aaaaaaaaaaah aaaaaaaah aaaaaaah

trying to catch up mother f-cker

aaaaaaaaaaah aaaaaaaaah aaaaaaah

and all the people say
aaaaaaaaaaah aaaaaaaah aaaaaaah

trying to catch up mother f-cker

aaaaaaaaaaah aaaaaaaaah aaaaaaah

hey hey hey hey

This is not the end
This is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot
Rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone
And the violent rhythm
Though the words sound steady
Something emptys within em

We say yeah

With fists flying up in the air
Like we’re holding onto something that’s invisible there
Cuz we’re living at the mercy of the pain and the fear
Until we dead it forget it
Let it all disappear

Waiting for the end to come
Wishing I had strength to stand
This is not what I had planned
It’s out of my control

Flying at the speed of light
Thoughts were spinning in my head
So many things were left unsaid
It’s hard to let you go

I know what it takes to move on
I know how it feels to lie
All I wanna do is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven’t got

Sitting in an empty room
Trying to forget the past
This was never meant to last
I wish it wasn’t so

What was left when that fire was gone
I thought it felt right but that right was wrong
All caught up in the eye of the storm
And trying to figure out what it’s like moving on

And I don’t even know what kind of things I said
My mouth kept moving and my mind went dead
Picking up those pieces now where to begin
The hardest part of ending is starting again

All I wanna do is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven’t got

This is not the end
This is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot
Rocking every revision
But you listen to the tone
And the violent rhythm
Though the words sound steady
Something empty’s within em

We say yeah

With fists flying up in the air
Like we’re holding onto something that’s invisible there
Cuz we’re living at the mercy of the pain and the fear
Until we dead it forget it
Let it all disappear

When you feel you’re alone
cut off from this cruel world
your instincts telling you to run

listen to your heart
those angel faces
they’ll see you to you
they’ll be your guide
back home where life leaves us blind
love keeps us kind
it keeps us kind !

when you suffered it all
and your spirit is breaking
you’re growing desperate from the fight
Remember your love
and you always will be
this melody will always bring
you right back home

When life leaves us blind
Love, keeps us kind!
When life leaves us blind
Love keeps us kind!

Ohhhhhh Ohhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhh Ohhhhhh!
Ohhhhhh Ohhhhhhh!

“There’s a time, when the operation of the machine becomes so odious.
Makes you so sick at heart, that you can’t take part,
you can’t even passively take part.
And you’ve got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels,
upon the levers,
upon all the apparatus. And you’ve got to make it stop!”

To save face, how low can you go?
Talk a lotta game, but yet you don’t know.
Static on the wind, makes us all say whoa!
The people up top push the people down low.
Get down, and obey every word.
Steady, get in line if you haven’t yet heard.
Wanna take what I got, don’t be absurd.
Don’t fight the power, nobody gets hurt.
If you haven’t heard yet, then I’m lettin’ you know
There ain’t shit we don’t run when the guns unload
And no one make a move, unless my people say so
Got everything outta control, now everybody go

Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey

Feel alone, final blow
We, the animals, take control
Hear us now, clear and tall
Wretches and kings, we come for you

So keep face, how slow can you go?
Talk a lotta shit, and yet you don’t know.
Fire on the wind, makes you all say whoa!
The people up top and the people down low.
Get down, lyricsmusicvideo.blogspot.com and I’m runnin’ it like that.
The front of the attack is exactly where I’m at.
Somewhere in between the kick and the hi-hat
The pen and the contract, the pitch and the contact
So get with the combat, I’m lettin’ them know
There ain’t shit you can say to make me back down, no.
So push the button, let the whole thing blow.
Spinning everything outta control, now everybody go.

Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey

Feel alone, final blow
We, the animals, take control
Hear us now, clear and tall
Wretches and kings, we come for you
Still alone, fight our blow
Filthy animals beat down low
Steel and bone, black and blue
Run at the sunshine, we come for you

From the front to the back and to side to side
If you feel what I feel, put’em up real high
Front to the back and to side to side
If you feel what I feel, put’em up real high

“There’s a time, when the operation of the machine becomes so odious.
Makes you so sick at heart, that you can’t take part,
you can’t even passively take part.
And you’ve got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels,
upon the levers,
upon all the apparatus. And you’ve got to make it stop!
And you’ve got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it.
And unless you’re free, the machine will be prevented from working at all! “
