Holy Hell

When I leave this skin and bone Beyond my final heartbeat I'll dismantle piece by piece And I will know that death is not defeat When I leave this skin and bone Beyond my final heartbeat (Heartbeat) I'll dismantle piece by piece And I will know that death is not defeat Holding on tight to what's left of our time We've hidden away, but it's in the design Why do we fight what we can't define? Don't be afraid, we all cross the same line When I leave this skin and bone Beyond my final heartbeat (Heartbeat) I'll dismantle piece by piece And I will know that death is not defeat Into the night, we burn and rage In death, we repay for time on this stage The lights are bright, but don't lose your way 'Cause once it ignites, the flame must decay Now you're finally complete I will see you where oceans meet Past and present merge, light and dark will converge Time will overthrow our, our reign on this throne The everlasting sleep returning through the veil Far beneath the deep, another soul sets sail When I leave this skin and bone Beyond my final heartbeat I'll dismantle piece by piece And I will know that death is not defeat When I leave this skin and bone Beyond my final heartbeat (Heartbeat) I'll dismantle piece by piece And I will know that death is not defeat

Now the oceans have drained out Can I come up for air? 'Cause I've been learning to live without And I'm fighting with broken bones I wasn't ready for the rapture, we're only passing through But these words, they mean nothing to me I know that time will mend this fracture, I've been lost in a maze And every route I take, leads right back to you Now the oceans have drained out Can I come up for air? 'Cause I've been learning to live without And I'm fighting with broken bones Now the skies have been blacked out I've got to find my way 'Cause it's been raining but there's a drought And I'm fighting with broken bones I've been searching through the wreckage But it's like standing in the eye of a storm When will I finally get the message? Some things are broken beyond repair This is my cross to bear My own meaningless catastrophe I never had the time to prepare Because I never knew that all my nightmares could come true Now the oceans have drained out Can I come up for air? 'Cause I've been learning to live without And I'm fighting with broken bones Now the skies have been blacked out I've got to find my way 'Cause it's been raining but there's a drought And I'm fighting with broken bones I've spent my fair share In the deepest depths of despair 'Cause I was too lost down there to care I wasn't braced for the fallout I wasn't braced for the fallout I've been searching through the wreckage But it's like standing in the eye of a storm When will I finally get the message? Some things are broken beyond repair Now the oceans have drained out Can I come up for air? 'Cause I've been learning to live without And I'm fighting with broken bones Now the skies have been blacked out I've got to find my way 'Cause it's been raining but there's a drought And I'm fighting with broken bones

I guess we're mortal after all One day all of us will give up the ghost Too lost in the light to see what matters most All ends will be met And all worlds must collapse Another part of the symphony lost between eternity But God is in the detail I know that there's a part of me, doomed to face infinity 'Cause every wave has gotta break Has gotta break The truth is, all of us are hostages Staring down the throat of the screaming abyss Surrendering is half the battle But we're powerless to resist Another part of the symphony lost between eternity But God is in the detail I know that there's a part of me, doomed to face infinity 'Cause every wave has gotta break Have you forgotten the deal we made? I've seen the end and the pain we trade All these walls will fall I guess we're mortal after all The end will come for all of us This all rests on the fault line All ends will be met And all worlds must collapse Another part of the symphony lost between eternity But God is in the detail I know that there's a part of me, doomed to face infinity 'Cause every wave has gotta break Has gotta break, yeah Have you forgotten the deal we made? I've seen the end and the pain we trade All these walls will fall I guess we're mortal after all

Maybe we'll never learn? The fire at the gates is our saving grace Remember we were born to burn There is a holy hell where we can save ourselves There is a holy hell where we can save ourselves We will be cast out of paradise It's a long ascent out of the black But we all have to sacrifice, hang the iconoclast And kiss the feet of the amnesiac 'Cause the moment is dead when I'm lost in the past    Maybe we'll never learn? The fire at the gates is our saving grace Remember we were born to burn There is a holy hell where we can save ourselves But now the rivers are running red And the skies have been set ablaze I've been fearing the worst again Heavenly terrorist, have you been mourning over yesterday? Don't forget to breathe when the knife begins to twist Fuck this self-pity, it's not that hard to see We get one chance, these wounds will set me free  There's poison on the key, it brings you to your knees But even the mountains erode in the rain A single spark can start a forest fire Light one match and burn down the empire There's gold buried in the blue, oh There's gold buried in the blue Holy Hell, I've got nothing left to lose And I can tell there's gold buried in the blue Maybe we'll never learn? The fire at the gates is our saving grace Remember we were born to burn There is a holy hell where we can save ourselves Holy Hell, I've got nothing left to lose And I can tell there's gold buried in the blue But even the mountains erode in the rain A single spark can start a forest fire Light one match and burn down the empire There's gold buried in the blue There's gold buried in the blue

We suffer to survive Are we desperate creatures crawling in the dirt? Or are we lonely preachers hiding our beating hearts? We sow the wind and reap the storm Don't say you haven't been warned No future's written There's endless possibility We suffer to survive If hope is a prison, then maybe faith will set me free We suffer to survive Am I just a victim drifting in the raging sea? We suffer to survive If a kingdom resides behind my own eyes I've got to catch the stone and cradle the wave Damnation is just a daydream away But still, we carry on If I'm God in disguise, praying for the rain And if our demons decide, then is this all in vain? We sow the wind and reap the storm Don't say you haven't been warned It's time to confess I haunt this flesh I answer my own prayers I bid my own despair No future's written There's endless possibility We suffer to survive If hope is a prison, then maybe faith will set me free We suffer to survive Am I just a victim drifting in the raging sea? We suffer to survive But still, we carry on There's a lesson in this, what I resist persists And damnation is just a daydream away If hope is a prison, then maybe faith will set me free We suffer to survive Am I just a victim drifting in the raging sea? We suffer to survive

Royal beggars, royal beggars Do you, do you, do you wanna Live forever, live forever Alone, alone, alone? 'Cause we’re broken All hope is dead, but we're coping Somebody, save our souls Like a bird in a cage, trying to fly away Is this the price that we have to pay? Overflowing with rage, yet we still obey 'Cause we’re asleep in a hurricane Bitter lovers, bitter lovers Let go, let go, let go 'cause it's Now or never, now or never Breathe in, breathe out, breathe in 'Cause we're choking And left for dead, but we're coping Somebody, save our souls Like a bird in a cage, trying to fly away Is this the price that we have to pay? Overflowing with rage, yet we still obey 'Cause we're asleep in a hurricane Are you listening? You may not have noticed We have totally lost our way Are you lost in the clouds? Or can you hold your focus? It’s ourselves that we will betray Are you listening? You may not have noticed We have totally lost our way Are you lost in the clouds? Or can you hold your focus? It’s ourselves that we will betray Like a bird in a cage, trying to fly away Is this the price that we have to pay? Overflowing with rage, yet we still obey 'Cause we’re asleep in a hurricane We sit on a throne, waiting for God to bend the knee But we're nothing more than royal beggars Yeah Blegh But I'm as guilty as the next man Our eyes are open, but we're not listening

Seven billion hungry ghosts Just a parasite killing its host The emperor wears no clothes I see those brittle bones But we're buried by modern misery There's not enough water in the world To wash the blood from our hands We planted a seed Its roots will suffocate the soul It grows without light And feeds from our bones Hell must be empty All the devils are here Singing us the Lord's Prayer Finally, something that we all share I won't go to the grave With the song still in me What are we hiding in the rain? This is a prison for lost souls Another life circles the drain We used to run with the wolves Now we can't see the forest 'Cause there's no light in the black hole Don't try and tell me we are blessed We used to run with the wolves Are these our new messiahs? 'Cause the saviour has a gun to my head Don't be fooled by Maya, The kings are all thieves And the serpents will bite as they please How has it come to this? I won't go to the grave With the song still in me And I won't live like a slave Begging from my knees I will not live like a slave I will not beg from my knees I will not go to the grave With the song still in me We used to run with the wolves

I found my way to the garden, but I couldn't see The cliff edge in front of me, no cloud can catch me now It brings me closer to God But keeps the dirt in the wound, and now the beast has teeth I’ve got my hand on my heart I thought that I knew the way, but I've been torn apart Now I know there's a holy grail But it’s beyond the pale Why must we always fly so close to the sun? The silhouettes have fallen one by one 'Cause we forget that the sun sets And we're not long for this world No cloud can catch me now The Devil's recruits whisper in my ear "Go tighten that noose", but it's clear I've gotta follow the thread Instead, I'll dream of the end, and I will raise the dead We're all refusing to feel And yet we’re dying to heal But there is only now And there’s no easy way out I found my way to the garden, but I couldn't see The cliff edge in front of me Now I know there’s a holy grail But it's beyond the pale Why must we always fly so close to the sun? The silhouettes have fallen one by one 'Cause we forget that the sun sets And we're not long for this world No cloud can catch me now I see no silver linings When the days are so dark So hold a flame to these words Enough pressure will create a diamond, oh I see no silver linings When the days are so dark So hold a flame to these words Enough pressure will create a diamond Enough pressure will create a diamond

Bleh! I don't wanna dream anymore I've buried it all too deep Ah! Every waking moment is war This is the seventh circle Bleh! I'm stepping off the edge I think I'd prefer oblivion I feel the blood drain from my face Maybe it's better to never have been Too afraid to connect What can I do to repent I've got to settle my regrets But first I've gotta accept Some of us burn too bright I'm holding on too tight I think I'm done with reality I don't wanna dream anymore I've buried it all too deep Every waking moment is war This is the seventh circle I don't wanna dream anymore I've buried it all too deep Every waking moment is war This is the seventh circle I don't wanna dream anymore I've buried it all too deep Every waking moment is war This is the seventh circle

Remember when Hell had frozen over? The cold still burns underneath my skin The water is rising all around me And there is nothing left I can give All these tears I've shed I saw the wildfire spread You said you cheated death But Heaven was in my head They say "the good die young" No use in saying "what is done is done" 'cause it's not enough And when the night gives way It's like a brand new doomsday What will be will be Every river flows into the sea, but it's never enough And when the night gives way It's like a brand new doomsday The embers still glow when I'm sober The gold in the flame burns brighter now I have to rebuild, now it's over Maybe now I'm lost, I can live Souls don't break, they bend But I sometimes forget I have to do this for you And the only way out is through Yeah, death is an open door Words the prophets said Still swimming through my head Now there's no stars left in the sky 'Cause this well will never run dry What if I completely forget? What if I never accept? 'Cause when you fade away It's like a brand new doomsday They say "the good die young" No use in saying "what is done is done" 'cause it's not enough And when the night gives way It's like a brand new doomsday What will be will be Every river flows into the sea, but it's never enough And when the night gives way It's like a brand new doomsday It's like a brand new doomsday

All is not lost, all is not lost, all is not lost, all is not lost All is not lost, all is not lost, all is not lost, all is not lost Waiting for a sign washed up on the shoreline I'll always carry the cross, but all is not lost I just can't relate a crack in the floodgate Life comes at a cost, but all is not lost Is this penance for my sins? I gave everything for this phantom limb Holy Ghost, nothing lasts forever Now it's time to sink or swim I've got nothing except this wasted hymn Holy Ghost, nothing lasts forever Taking back what's mine, but it's lost to the skyline A bridge I cannot cross, but all is not lost Now there's no escape; God, what a sorry state Love comes at a cost, but all is not lost Is this penance for my sins? I gave everything for this phantom limb Holy Ghost, nothing lasts forever Now it's time to sink or swim I've got nothing except this wasted hymn Holy Ghost, nothing lasts forever Can you feel the empty space? Can you feel the fire at the gates? Can you live a life worth dying for? Can you feel the empty space? Can you feel the fire at the gates? Can you live a life worth dying for? Can you feel the empty space? Can you feel the fire at the gates? Can you live a life worth dying for? Is this penance for my sins? I gave everything for this phantom limb Holy Ghost, nothing lasts forever Now it's time to sink or swim I've got nothing except this wasted hymn Holy Ghost, nothing lasts forever
