Lyric Booklet

Watching through my fingers, watching through my fingers
Shut my eyes and count to ten
It goes in one ear out the other, one ear out the other
Burning bright right till the end
Now you’ll be missing fromthe photographs, missing fromthe
photographs
In my thoughts you’re far away
And you are whistling the melody, whistling the melody
Crystallizing clear as day
Oh, I can picture you so easily, picture you so easily
What’s gonna be left ofthe world ifyou’re not in it?
What’s gonna be left ofthe world, oh
Every minute and every hour
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you more
Every stumble and each misfire
Caught off guard by your favourite song
I’ll be dancing at a funeral, dancing at a funeral
Sleeping in the clothes you love
It’s such a shame we had to see them burn, shame we had to see
them burn
What’s gonna be left ofthe world ifyou’re not in it?
What’s gonna be left ofthe world, oh
"If you want to be a party animal, you have to learn to live in the
jungle
Now stop worrying and go get dressed"
You might have to excuse me
I’ve lost control ofall my senses
And you might have to excuse me
I’ve lost control ofall my words
So get drunk, call me a fool
Put me in my place, put me in my place
Pick me up, up off the floor
Put me in my place, put me in my place
'Cause every minute and every hour
Roll up another cigarette
Using the minute that it takes
To think about the power ofyour words
We're living in the currents you create
We're sinking in the pool ofyour mistakes
So stub it out, your podiumawaits
Oh my God, my God
I can't quite believe my ears
I'mswimming to the surface
I'mcoming up for air
'Cause you're making me feel nervous
I need to clear my head
I can't believe my ears
I don't wanna believe my ears
How can you think you're serious?
Do you even know what year it is?
I can't believe the scary points you make
Still living in the currents you create
Still sinking in the pool ofyour mistakes
Won't you stop firing up the crazies?
Oh my God, my God
I can't quite believe my ears
"When anybody preaches disunity, tries to pit one ofus against the other
You know that person seeks to rob us ofour freedomand destroy our very lives"
Oh, I need a breath
I need a breath
Fill my lungs
Let me fill my lungs?
Oh, I need a breath
I need a breath
Fill my lungs
Let me fill my lungs
Oh, I need a breath
I need a breath
Fill my lungs
Oh, I need a breath
I need a breath
Fill my lungs

An act of kindness
Is what you show to me
Not more than I can take
Not more than I can take
Kindness is what you show to me
It holds me 'till I ache
Overflow and start to break
Oh I, got a feeling this will shake me down
Oh I, kind of hoping this will turn me round
And now it follows me every day
And now it follows me every day, every day, every day
An act of kindness
Is what you show to me
It caught me by surprise in this town of glass and eyes
Kindness, so many people pass me by
But you warm me to my core and you left me wanting more
Oh I, got a feeling this will shake me down
Oh I, kind of hoping it will turn me round
Oh I, got a feeling that however slow
Oh I, kind of hoping this will reach my soul
Oh my back's up against the wall
I feel guilty, I feel guilty
Want nothing in return
Oh my back's up against the wall
Want nothing in return
Back's up against the wall
And you want nothing in return

Never good just the bad and the ugly
Laid infront ofyou
Nothing quite like seeing the world through the TV's we know
Feeling helpless I look for distraction
I go searching for you, wandering through our city to find some solace at your door
I can't stop thinking about it
I can't stop thinking about it
Tell me did you see the news tonight
Hold me in this wild, wild, world
'Cause in your warmth I forget how cold it can be
And in your heat I feel how cold it can get
Now draw me close
So come on let's forget the emotion
Tie the blinkers oh, hold both hands right over my eyes
Deafen me with music
'Till we're lost in the heat ofthe moment
And I move and you help me keep these hours alive
Help me chase those seconds
I just keep talking about it
But I'll do nothing about it
Tell me did you see the news last night
And in your heat I feel how cold you can get
Now draw me close
So draw me close
Draw me close
Deep in a corner of the night
We were lying in the middle of the road
Counting the planes as they flew by
Inconceivable imagining them go
And drunkwe set the world to rights
As we fell and hit our heads upon the curb
You make me laugh until I die
Can you thinkof any better way to choke?
Stories told to me and stories told to you
And did you ever feel like they were ringing true?
And all their words for glory
Well they always sounded empty
When we're looking up for heaven
Looking up for heaven
And way down here upon the ground
When we're lying in the dirt
There's no looking up for heaven
Not everything had gone to plan
But we made the best of what we had, you know
Passing the drinkfrom hand to hand
We admit we really know nothing at all
Stories told to me and stories told to you
And was it feeling real, and were they ringing true?
I'll take my chances on the curb here with you
We watched the planes leave us behind
On the curb here with you
We watched the planes leave us behind
And then you put your hand in mine
And pulled me backfrom things divine
Stop looking up for heaven, waiting to be buried

Aim, throw your best shot right at me
Cause pain, I can take it easily
Did you really think I'd fall to my knees
Just to pray for some sweet simplicity?
Cause woah, you're squeezing my heart,
Too hard in your bare hands, they hold too tight
And woah the air is on fire,
This room feels electric, caught here in your sights
Power, power
I will never understand the power you were holding
over me
Power, power
Oh you had it too long, yes you had it too long
Pain, just synapses firing in our brain
So when you cut me, cut me deep
Hurt the ones you love the most easily
Cause in time we show our Achilles's heels
And woah, you're squeezing my heart,
Too hard in your cold bare hands, they hold too tight
And woah the air is on fire,
This room feels electric, caught here in your sights
Power, power
I will never understand the power you were holding
over me
Power, power
Oh you had it too long, yes you had it too long
If you're gonna hit me, hit me harder
(Hit me, hit me harder)
Cause you better knock me out the first time
And if you're gonna do this rip the plaster
(Do this rip the plaster)
If you're gonna hit me, hit me harder than this
Power, power
Blows my mind to think I ever let you hold it over me
Power, power
I will never understand the way I let you hold it over
me
Power, power
Well you had it too long, yes you had it too long
I’m the lesser of two evils
Or am I, am I tricking myself nice?
If I’m a lesser of two evils
Who’s this man, who’s this act I hide behind?
There are two ways to skin tonight
Let’s see whose road gets there faster
This is a game, no wrongs, no right
Only a winner and a loser
You and I, oh you and I
We’re not that different, you and I
Oh you and I, you and I
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh I'm the lesser of two evils
So keep looking
Just keep looking into my eyes
And as the lesser of two evils, it pays to
Pays to be the nice guy sometimes
There are two ways to skin tonight
Let’s see whose road gets there faster
Here I am hiding in plain sight
If you're not careful you will lose her
You and I, you and I
Oh you and I, you and I
You and I, you and I
We're not that different, you and I

I've got demons running round in my head
And they feed on insecurities I have
Won't you lay your healing hands on my chest?
Let your ritual clean
Soak the ropes with your holy water
Tie me down as you read out the words
Set me free from my jealousy
Won't you exorcise my mind?
I want to be free as I'll ever be
Exorcise my mind
Help me exorcise my mind
Desdemona, won't you liberate me?
When I'm haunted by your ancient history
Close these green eyes and watch over as I sleep
Through my darkest ofdreams
Be the power to compel me
Hold me closer than anyone before
Set me free from my jealousy
Exorcise my mind
I should be thinking 'bout nothing else when I'mwith you ooh
With you ooh, oh oh oh
I should be thinking 'bout nothing else when I'mwith you ooh
With you ooh, oh oh oh
Your mind exists somewhere altogether different
It lives in a world where feelings simply cannot be defined by words
Oh set me free from my jealousy
Exorcise my mind
Lethargy got a hold of me
And I don't know how to shake it
Got these itchy feet for a change of scene
Do anything to escape it
Get up, get up, pressure, pressure
Run away as fast as you can go
Everyday our friends and lovers
Give the answers everybody knows
You told me not to be like anybody else
Headspin, happiness, death
Be like anybody else
Bowed down, nothing else left
You checked out years ago
Oh what I'd do to not to worry like you
There's an English man up in space these days
Floating in awe and wonder
As he floats away from the atmospheres
All of us non believers
Get up, get up, pressure, pressure
Run away as fast as you can go
Everyday our friends and lovers
Give the answers everybody knows
Headspin, happiness, death
Paint the scene for me
Paint it bright and paint it clear
I don't want to use my imagination here
Don't want to use my imagination here
Paint the scene for me
Paint it bright and paint it clear
I don't want to use my imagination here
Don't want to use my imagination here
Headspins, happiness, death

These four walls to keep you
One floor to sleep upon and only
These four walls to keep you
These four walls contain you
Supposed to save you from yourself and
These four walls in Holcomb
To keep you from the sun
And now we're faced with two wrongs
Now we're faced with two wrongs
I don't know, oh, I don't know
We could be born to anything and now, and now
What you have done is terrible
And now you, and now you
Now you carry it with you
You carry it with you
These four walls will keep you
Until you face the rope
You've only these four walls before they,
In cold blood, hang you up
And now you, and now you
(Now you carry it with you
Carry it with you
Carry it with you)
There's no view from here, no view from here, no view from here
All you see's the sky
Clouds passing by, clouds passing by
And now, and now
s

You go sleep with the fishes
There’s no room for you here
There’s no room for you here
Wrap your teeth around the pavement
'Cause your body’s a message
Send my regards to hell
Fall upon your knees saying
"This is my body and soul here"
Fall and begging, pleading
"You’ve got the power and control"
Don’t pin it all on me
You’ve been granted three wishes
Say goodbye to your mother, your father, your son
I can hear your pulse racing from here
Sitting next to this gun beats your heart in your mouth
"You’ve got the power and control"
Don't blame, blame, blame (I got you, I got you)
Oh blame, blame, blame (I got you, I got you)
"You’ve got the power and control here"
This is my body, this is my soul
"This is my body and soul"
Drive around, night time, nowhere to go
Melt me down, I'm like wax to your jokes
Lost and found, knocking heads, laying low
And there's no point reliving crimes to lose this
Still wanna waste all of my time
I wanna waste all of my time
With you
Oh my lover, my lover, my love
We can never go back
We can only do our best to recreate
Don't turn over, turn over the page
We should rip it straight out
Then let's try our very best to fake it
Show me joy, flower through disarray
Let's destroy, each mistake that we made
Then restore the color backto the grey
There's no pride in sharing scars to prove it
With you
Then let's try our very best to fake it
Help me turn a blind eye
Days and nights we lost to weakness
Help me turn a blind eye
Days and nights we lost to weakness
So don't turn over, turn over the page
Then let's do our very best to fake it
Then let's do our very best to fake it

Ooh, I'm not ready [4x]
Snakes are biting in my heels
The worries that refuse to let us go
I've been kicking them away
When hoping not to let them take control
Ooh, I'm not ready
Drink to escape our minds
[Another version:] Drinkto escape their bites
Show me distraction
Even for just one night
But it's easier to bury
Cause it's easier to bury
My head in the sand sometimes
Yes, it's easier to bury
And I know, I know, I know
It's not the right way to go
But I pray for the ground to swallow me whole
Now these days are feeling dark
We're struggling to figure out last year
When the woman on the news
Keeps saying things that no one wants to hear
Ooh, I'm not ready
Drink to escape our minds
Show me distraction
Even for just one nigh
'Cause it's easier to bury
And I know, I know, I know
Yes, I pray for the ground to swallow me whole
"Come on, boys. Let's go tear this mother down!"
[Another version:] "Come on, boys. Let's go tear this place apart!"
'Cause I know, 'cause I know, 'cause I know
Life is simple when I can just ignore it all
'Cause I know, 'cause I know, 'cause I know
Life is simple when I can just ignore it all
'Cause I know, 'cause I know, 'cause I know...
If I'm not ready
Snakes will consume me whole
If I'm not steady
Baby, they'll take control
But it's easier to bury
I know, I know, I know
Yes, I know, I know, I know
This is the winter ofour youth
Oh but I'mnot there yet
I've got nostalgia running through me
And I don't like it
Oh my, my, my, my
Now I can almost taste it, taste it
But I, just hope we didn't waste it away
I know the winter's getting colder
But why, just 'cause we're a little older do
I relive it, I relive it
Oh, I'm peddling backwards
Even if I'm peddling alone
Can't help it
I relive it, I relive it, oh
It's 4 AM here comes the fear
I'm not prepared yet
And when we pick over the past we glorify it
Oh my, my, my, my
I hope I wasn't wasted, wasted
And I, I hope I didn't drink it away
Can't help it
I let myself bathe in the past for way, way, way too long
And now it seems that I've drunk too much to give you what you want
Can't help it
Can't help it
Relive it, I relive it, oh
Can't help it
I'm peddling backwards
Can't help it

The animals break out their cages now
Chaos is raining down around us
But here we stand with our arms folded
Do you wanna be free ofthis?
When panic rises like the ocean we
Just keep on flicking through the stations 'cause
If we don't post it does it happen
Oh I wanna be free ofthis
Have you and I been sleepwalking way too long
Won't someone pour ice water on me
It only matters ifwe care now
If you're way beyond that
And I'mgonna dust you offofmy shoulders
And I remember when we cared now
Then I'mgonna dust you offofmy shoulders, my shoulders
Movies and news on television
Sometimes it's hard to tell the differences oh
When real life's more fucked up than fiction
Do you wanna be free ofthis?
Have you and I been sleepwalking way too long
Won't someone pour ice water on me
And I'mgonna dust you offofmy shoulders
Then I'mgonna dust you offofmy shoulders
I don't wanna play dumb anymore
I just wanna feel something like before
I don't wanna feel numb anymore
I just wanna something like before
Then I'mgonna dust you offofmy shoulders
Then I'mgonna dust you offofmy shoulders, my shoulders
"Television shoulders have the choice ofwatching the tragedy
Play out fromthe seating and comfort oftheir living rooms
But victims have to respond to the pressure ofthe media while still in shock"
I'mgonna dust you offofmy shoulders, my shoulders
So her fingers ran away with themselves
'Till everything was documented
Our mind it was reaching out
To put into words what their bodies had done
They lie together, oh
Oil on water
And they lie upon her, oh
Someone's daughter
It's a catalogue of modern mistakes
Her words and legs wrapped around each man
Leaving stories like digital crumbs
As she turns these nights into literature
Oil on water
And they lie upon her, oh
Someone's daughter
When they leave she sets about writing down
Awkward body games all over town
Warm affection runs through every word
We're screens away but we're laughing with her
Oil on water
Oh they lie upon her, oh
Someone's daughter
They lie upon her, oh
Oil on water

Just another brain on the campus
Just another man in the field
Just another tall pile of papers
Making it crowded in here
Someone else's workin' your thesis
Someone else's words in your mouth
Someone else's hard workand research
Taking you up in the world
Oh, never leave me out
I'm standing by the sidelines
I'm standing by
I'll watch it all from afar
Heaven, help me
I'll watch it all fall apart
Heaven, help me
Help me, help me, help me, help me
Heaven, help me
Just another brain on the campus
Just another set of ideas
Just another theory in motion
Waiting on for your to steer
He must be so lonely, knowing what you know
Man, it must be lonely, keeping it on the low
I'm standing by the sidelines
I'm standing by
Heaven, help me
Heaven help me
Heaven, help me
Heaven, help me
Heaven, help me
Heaven, help me
There is no love lost here between us
Where are those friends who pulled no punches
Shock from my hip with one another
We got so far from them
We're miles from way backwhen
I'm so nervous saying this out loud
As the words roll off my tongue and out my mouth
I can see a change
I can see a change in you
I see it coursing through your veins
And it is a shame
It is a shame on you
I barely recognize your face
And I don't like what I'm seeing lately
Oh I don't like who I'm seeing lately oh
So many seasons fell beneath us
Too many voices on our shoulders
I miss us dancing through the same noise
But here we are my friend
We're miles from way backwhen
I never knew that I could be slowed down, oh oh
I never knew that I could be slowed down until I told you
I can see a change
And it is a shame
Oh it is a shame oh you
And I don't like what I'm seeing lately oh
I don't like who I'm seeing lately oh
Lately I'm living in the past
Who am I to judge
I'm the worst of all
Some things are better left unsaid
But I miss the person I knew before
And I can see a change
And it is a shame
Oh it is a shame oh you
And I don't like what I'm seeing lately oh
I don't like who I'm seeing lately oh X3

Let those fools be loud
Let alarms ring out
'Cause you cut through all the noise
Let the days be dark
Let me hate my work
Bring me some hope
By wandering into my mind
Something to hold onto
Morning, or day, or night
You were the light that is blinding me
You're the anchor that I tie to my brain
'Cause when it feels when I'm lost at sea
You're the song that I sing again and again
All the time, all the time
I think of you all the time
Let the parties end when we lose our friends
Let the years roll on 'till the static comes
Bring me some hope
'Cause when it feels like I'm lost at sea
Bring me some hope
'Cause when it feels when I'm lost at sea
