Bad Omens
Album • 2019
Gave it all to burn forever underneath the rain Drowning in the present of a past that I couldn't change Writing songs instead of letters because I'm too afraid Afraid of coming back to find that everything is the same Everything is the same I made my way through hell again, I paid for my mistakes Next time, I think I'll stay awhile and pour myself a drink When I return, I'll look for you, so listen for your name If you can make it out above the roaring of the flames If it's the mask you want, then it's the mask that you will get But when I take it off, remember that you asked for this I tore myself apart to give you all that I could give Don't think that I will let it go, don't think that I'll forget I thought I wanted legacy, I thought I wanted fame I didn't know I'd lose all my loved ones in exchange Left 'em all behind and yeah, for that, I am ashamed But that's the price I'm paying 'til I'm buried in my grave Gave it all to burn forever underneath the rain Drowning in the present of a past that I couldn't change Writing songs instead of letters because I'm too afraid Afraid of coming back to find that everything is the same I'll do it all over again from the start And this time, you're not leaving me in the dark You took me for granted, now look where you are Atop of a kingdom you built out of cards I thought I wanted legacy, I thought I wanted fame I didn't know I'd lose all my loved ones in exchange Left 'em all behind and yeah, for that, I am ashamed But that's the price I'm paying 'til I'm buried in my grave I'll do it all over again from the start (I'll do it again) And this time, you're not leaving me in the dark (I'll do it again) You took me for granted, now look where you are (I'll do it again) Atop of a kingdom you built out of cards

The distance to heaven is measured in gold So if you stop along the way Make sure that you save it when you sell your soul So you can afford to stay All we want is something to keep us From the things we're afraid to know But what we need is something to free us From the fear that we can't let go Running in circles and I can't think straight Running in circles and I can't escape Well, we're gonna live forever and I've never felt so sure Everything has always been what we're looking for Yeah, we're gonna live forever 'cause we ain't afraid no more Everything has always been what we're looking for The only way out of this hell is through So run and keep running fast 'Cause if you slow down, it'll ruin you So keep running and never look back You're not alone You may be just like me, without a home Lost and looking for something, but not alone And if you're wondering, you're not alone Yeah (Yeah) Well, we're gonna live forever and I've never felt so sure Everything has always been what we're looking for Yeah, we're gonna live forever 'cause we ain't afraid no more Everything has always been what we're looking for Running in circles and I can't think straight Running in circles and I can't escape Running in circles and I can't think straight Running in circles and I can't escape Well, we're gonna live forever and I've never felt so sure Everything has always been what we're looking for Yeah, we're gonna live forever 'cause we ain't afraid no more Everything has always been what we're looking for Running in circles and I can't think straight Running in circles and I can't escape Running in circles and I can't think straight Running in circles and I can't escape Running in circles and I can't think straight Running in circles and I can't escape Running in circles and I can't think straight Running in circles and I can't escape

Yeah Let me take you back to when I was killed and born again Woke up in the light convinced my life had made it to its end Burning up beneath the sun while my father drained of blood If he's there, I've got a message for the man that's up above Fuck you If he's home, I've got a message from below Getting out is not enough if nobody else can come If he's home, I've got a message for the man above Here am I, take me to the pearly gates So I can look you in the eye when I spit in your face Here am I, take me to the pearly gates Don't let 'em hit you on the way out when I take your place Did you think you could dig deep enough to bury me? It's over when I say and you're not getting rid of me So walk into my fire or step into my light Either way, it's gonna burn if you don't make this right, oh Shit If he's home, I've got a message from below Here am I, take me to the pearly gates So I can look you in the eye when I spit in your face Here am I, take me to the pearly gates Don't let 'em hit you on the way out when I take your place Dead meat Getting out is not enough if nobody else can come If he's home, I've got a message for the man above Here am I, take me to the pearly gates So I can look you in the eye when I spit in your face Here am I, take me to the pearly gates Don't let 'em hit you on the way out when I take your place Here am I, take me to the pearly gates So I can look you in the eye when I spit in your face Here am I, take me to the pearly gates Don't let 'em hit you on the way out when I take your place Shit

There's no rest for the wicked There's not a home underneath the mud And we're all dead, so what's the difference Between a god and a loaded gun? I am the sun, rain, the ocean I am the flood, flames, the chosen It's in our blood, it's on our breath It's in the taste between life and death It's in our blood I hung myself up on a cross to bleed Nobody cared, nobody listened to me So I'm not carrying the weight of a conscience Bring the floods, bring the flames, bring the violence It's in our blood, it's on our breath It's in the taste between life and death It's in our hearts, it's in our heads It's for the lives we never got to live It's in our blood There's no rest for the wicked There's not a home underneath the mud And we're all dead, so what's the difference Between a god and a fucking gun? Blood Sun, rain, ocean Flood, flames, chosen It's in our blood, it's on our breath It's in the taste between life and death It's in our hearts, it's in our heads It's for the lives we never got to live There's no rest for the wicked There's not a home underneath the mud And we're all dead, so what's the difference Between a god and his only son? It's blood, blood I am the sun, rain, the ocean I am the flood, flames, the chosen

Blinded by a fear of feeling, these are the kings we chose Lost and looking for the meaning, I've been searching high and low When we fade into nothing, when we go up in the smoke We’ll beg God for a mercy that He knows we'd never show On a canvas we stained with blood and painted with our sins There's a candle melting and it’s burning at both ends We'll take and take 'til it caves and drowns us in the wax it drips Like a moth to a flame you never should've fucking lit You can give sight to the blind But you can't force them to see You could take us back in time But it wouldn't change a thing If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from His home And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would surely tell us no If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from his throne And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would tell us we can’t go To a rat in a maze, the end is where the start begins But if we made it out, I know that we would do it all again We live and die in vain like treasure on a sinking ship All in the name of a god we’d just abandon and forget If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from His home And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would surely tell us no If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from his throne And we asked Him if He’d take us back, He would tell us we can't go We're dying every day Tell me, is it all in vain? Is it worth the suffering? Is it worth the price we paid? Is it worth it? Yeah You can give sight to the blind But you can't force them to see You could take us back in time But it wouldn’t change a thing If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from His home And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would surely tell us no If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from his throne And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would tell us we can't go Blinded by a fear of feeling, these are the kings we chose Lost and looking for the meaning, I've been searching high and low When we fade into nothing, when we go up in the smoke We'll beg God for a mercy that He knows we'd never show You can give sight to the blind But you can't force them to see You could take us back in time But it wouldn't change a fucking thing

Old friend, don't you see me With my soul on my sleeve and my heart left to beat underground? Don't you leave me With the hope and belief that you're coming for me Was I not good enough? Worthy of being loved? Were you ashamed or just afraid? Well, when I've given up and all is said and done Will you just look the other way? Was I not good enough? Worthy of being loved? Were you ashamed or just afraid? Well, when I've given up and all is said and done Will you just look the other way? Half-dead, barely breathing Fell apart just to keep my head up in one piece 'til I'm found Well, I'm sinking To the floor of the sea where you want me to be Was I not good enough? Worthy of being loved? Were you ashamed or just afraid? Well, when I've given up and all is said and done Will you just look the other way? Was I not good enough? Worthy of being loved? Were you ashamed or just afraid? Well, when I've given up and all is said and done Will you just look the other way? I waited, but nobody called I waited for nothing at all Was I not good enough? Worthy of being loved? Were you ashamed or just afraid? Well, when I've given up and all is said and done Will you just look the other way? Was I not good enough? Worthy of being loved? Were you ashamed or just afraid? Well, when I've given up and all is said and done Will you just look the other way? I waited, but nobody called I waited for nothing at all I'd rather die young than die alone Overdosing to songs you wrote Poise and potions is all I know When the world's a stage and I'm just a show

So tell me, can you keep a secret? I thought I lost myself Trying to find a hidden meaning in all the lies you'd tell When you think I've said enough, tell me and I'll bite my tongue But don't you think I won't remember Don't take it now, don't take it now, don't take it now I'm burning out, I'm burning out, I'm burning out I was lost, but now I'm found Under the lights and in the sounds So let us sing and sing it loud That we're not perfect, but we're proud of who we are Who we are I thought I left the pain behind me, but when I turned around You pulled me back into the darkness and wouldn't let me out Like a diamond in the rough you didn't see for what it was And cut a hole right through the center I was lost, but now I'm found Under the lights and in the sounds So let us sing and sing it loud That we're not perfect, but we're proud of who we are Yeah, we're not perfect, but we're proud of who we are If good things must come to an end We're not going out of frame Because you can't just run from sadness When it runs inside your veins If good things must come to an end We're not going out the same Because you can't just run from sadness When it gets too hard to stay When you think I've said enough, tell me and I'll bite my tongue But don't you think I won't remember Like a diamond in the rough you didn't see for what it was And cut a hole right through the center I was lost, but now I'm found Under the lights and in the sounds So let us sing and sing it loud That we're not perfect, but we're proud of who we are Who we are I was lost, but now I'm found Under the lights and in the sounds So let us sing and sing it loud That we're not perfect, but we're proud of who we are When you think I've said enough, tell me and I'll bite my tongue But don't you think I won't remember Like a diamond in the rough you didn't see for what it was And cut a hole right through the center

There are scars that never ever show themselves You get when you're left alone too long in Hell They tried to keep in the secrets that you wouldn't tell But they just stripped you for parts you had to sell Well, if I'm there to catch you when you fall You'll have a friend down in Hell after all And if you're there to catch me when I fall Then maybe Hell ain't so bad after all I didn't want to believe how much you needed help And I just left you to be all by yourself And now I wish I had seen that you weren't doing well But I just came back to see how hard you fell Well, if I'm there to catch you when you fall You'll have a friend down in Hell after all And if you're there to catch me when I fall Then maybe Hell ain't so bad after all Build me up or tear me down, I will never make a sound Build me up or tear me down Run a dagger through my chest, I believe it's for the best Build me up or tear me down There are scars that never ever show themselves You get when you're left alone too long in Hell They tried to keep in the secrets that you wouldn't tell But they just stripped you for parts you had to sell And if you're there to catch me when I fall Then maybe Hell ain't so bad after all Build me up or tear me down, I will never make a sound Build me up or tear me down Run a dagger through my chest, I believe it's for the best Build me up or tear me down Well, if I'm there to catch you when you fall You'll have a friend down in Hell after all And if you're there to catch me when I fall Then maybe Hell ain't so bad after all Well, if I'm there to catch you when you fall You'll have a friend down in Hell after all And if you're there to catch me when I fall Then maybe Hell ain't so bad after all
