Wake up and call the guards
For safety’s sake, sound the alarm
The press will want to know this
We’ll burn this city down
Lay to waste this wicked town
And let God sort them out
Nobody knows we're running out of time
Wishing every second was the next
And I’ll burn my eyes, and you’ll be just fine
The youth will always fall
We’ll waive all our intentions
You’ll never lure me out
I lay in haven shrouded in deceit and doubt
Brace yourself for the crash
Medics cover our incompetence and make sure we keep breathing
I watched our end and enjoyed the view
Nobody knows we're running out of time
Wishing every second was the next
And I’ll burn my eyes, and you’ll be just fine
The youth will always fall
To his incline she struck again
Not looking at me while destroying him
This parasite will ruin men
Rest assure the world is ending
And nobody knows we’re out of time
Wishing every second was the next
I watched our end and enjoyed the view
Armageddon in my bedroom
Nobody knows we're running out of time
Wishing every second was the next
And I’ll burn my eyes, and you’ll be just fine
The youth will always fall to its death
I watched our end and enjoyed the view
Armageddon in my bedroom

I walk down these daunting halls in need of an orderly
Patients passing by sway side to side as tension envelopes me
Desperate for someone’s help, I inquire at the front desk
Vacant stares reply as silver clasps encircle my wrists
We’re so close to everyone else
You expect me to be there for you
I can’t show up for myself
Doctor! Doctor!
I need a cure for this disaster
If you can’t save me then I’m sure I’m unsure
The seconds move painfully as I lay buckled to my bed
I hold on to the very few figures in my head
She torments me sometimes and swears I’ll wait for you
In this twisted maze she’s at the end mouthing you sealed your own fate
We’re so close to everyone else
I expect you to be there for me
You always show up for yourself
Doctor! Doctor!
I need a cure for this disaster
If you can’t save me then I’m sure I’m unsure
Doctor! Doctor!
Prognosis says I’m failing faster
This love doesn’t have the ever after I’m after
I arrogantly kiss my own grave while hoping tomorrow wakes up the same
Vultures keep circling, taunting me
They will tear all flesh from our apathy
Vultures are taunting
Doctor, please cure me
Doctor! Doctor!
I need a cure for this disaster
If you can’t save me then I’m sure I’m unsure
Doctor! Doctor!
Keep telling me I’m failing faster
This love doesn’t have the ever after I’m after
Doctor, Doctor
Doctor, Doctor

Most days we wake and only ask for another page in time
Some run away, some stand and fight
And In times like this it’s the disaster that pushes deep inside
A hidden power in our mind
Lost boys are finding out they’re men
Stepping outside of their circumstance
Pushing the needle past the line
Out of choices, rendered voiceless
Redefined
Investing in the only outcome worth its weight in gold
Failure’s stab often untold
More than a dream, a future outlook called to carve in stone
An uphill race is ran alone
Lost boys are finding out they’re men
Stepping outside of their circumstance
Pushing the needle past the line
Out of choices, rendered voiceless
Redefined
It’s all we know to be unknown
Like raindrops in a flood
Adding dust to dirt and mud
Harder still is standing silent breathing in the air
Out of gas and full of fear
And every star has its own orbit
A place in space and time
Luminary and divine
Lost boys are finding out they’re men
Stepping outside of their circumstance
Pushing the needle past the line
Out of choices, rendered voiceless
Redefined
Lost boys are finding out they’re men
Stepping outside of their circumstance
Pushing the needle past the line
Out of choices, rendered voiceless

Listen up, listen well
The path before you is clear
Tread the wake and stay course
The storm is drawing near
It's in your head, the anchor of your fate
Turn the tides down low
Suspend this clouded weight
Dawn breaks the dark and lights the sky
Bright acts in spite of stormy eyes
Drown the sun when the water beckons you
There’s a line in the sand
What do you stand to lose?
Steadfast, with the ocean in your view
Will you swallow thicker red or breathe in deeper blue?
The storm is here, your time is now
Grab the helm and brace the gales
Brave the crashing waves
Do all you need to to prevail
It’s in your hands until the water’s calm is found
Stay on board and don't let go
‘Cause there’s a break in the clouds
Torn maps have led your soul astray
The sand has fallen through
Come what may
Drown the sun when the water beckons you
There’s a line in the sand
What do you stand to lose?
Steadfast, with the ocean in your view
Will you swallow thicker red or breathe in deeper blue?
Don’t panic yet
There’s air still left
Just hold your breath
Drown the sun when the water beckons you
There’s a line in the sand
What do you stand to lose?
Steadfast, with the ocean in your view
Will you swallow thicker red or breathe in deeper blue?

Half a decade ago I held my breath
But my lungs won't entertain the centuries
I called on the devil, asking him for patience
Instead I made a pact to carry on
I came here to dance with your demons baby
Use your hips, don’t dare you speak
Strike up the band and we’ll see who knows the words to sing along with me
Cold shoulders and warm heartbeats
Catching fire’s easier without fingertips
My prints won’t match the matches that I have lit
You always end up drowning In the endless obscene
And I’ll exhale before you’ll bleed
I came here to dance with your demons baby
Use your hips, don’t dare you speak
Strike up the band and we’ll see who knows the words to sing along with me
Cold shoulders and warm heartbeats
Born a grand lover destined to be alone
Birthed from vile womb amusing martyred ghosts
An unholy ritual
Life is the question
Love is the answer
Death is the burden
We are the cancer
And I am atlas carrying the burdens of this world
And I came here to dance with your demons baby
Just use your hips, don’t dare you speak
Don’t move your lips, just move your feet
Strike up the band and we’ll see who knows the words to sing along with me
Cold shoulders and warm heartbeats
Cold shoulders
Cold shoulders and warm heartbeats
