Show me a sign, show me a reason to give A solitary fuck about your goddamn beliefs I'm going blind, but one thing's clear Death is the only salvation you'll feel Brick by brick, by brick Brick by brick, by brick What you call faith, I call a sorry excuse Cloak and daggers murder the truth The bitter taste, there's nothing else I'll bow for your king when he shows himself Brick by brick, by brick These walls begin to cave in The house of wolves you built Whispers in a thousand tongues Show me your face, show me a reason to think My soul can be saved if I sell you my sins I'm going blind, but one thing's clear Death is the only salvation for me Brick by brick, by brick These walls begin to cave in The house of wolves you built Whispers in a thousand tongues The house of wolves you built The house of wolves you builtThe house of wolves you built Will burn just like a thousand suns Yeah And when you die, the only kingdom you'll see Is two foot wide and six foot deep Yeah And when you die, the only kingdom you'll see Is two foot wide and six foot deep Oh, when you die, the only kingdom you'll see Is two foot wide and six foot deep Oh Brick by brick, by brick Brick by brick, by brick Brick by brick, by brick These walls begin to cave in The house of wolves you built Whispers in a thousand tongues Brick by brick, by brick These walls begin to cave in The house of wolves you built Will burn just like a thousand suns You said you want me Now I'm here, now I'm here, now I'm here You said you want me Now I'm here, now I'm here, now I'm here

It's the start of the end, surrender the throne The blood on my hands covered the holes We've been surrounded by vicious cycles And we're truly alone The scars on your heart are yours to atone We've been surrounded, let 'em sing, let 'em sing The deeper you dig, the darker it gets There's nowhere else for us to go We live what we learn, and then we forget We'll never find our way back home, come on (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!) (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!) They came like moths to a flame You left like a house in a hurricane The wolves are at my door It's the start of the end, surrender the throne The blood on my hands covered the holes We've been surrounded by vicious cycles It's the start of the end, and we're truly alone The scars on your heart are yours to atone We've been surrounded, let 'em sing, let 'em sing I hear 'em clawing at the gates (Let us in, let us in) I hear them calling out my name, I don't care Let them sing, let them sing, let them sing Let the bastards sing, let them sing, let them sing Let the bastards sing, let them sing, let them sing Let the bastards sing, let the godforsaken bastards sing They came like moths to a flame You left like a house in a hurricane The wolves are at my door But I can't see the writing on the walls The wolves are at my door Waiting for my empire to fall It's the start of the end, surrender the throne The blood on my hands covered the holes We've been surrounded by vicious cycles It's the start of the end and we're truly alone The scars on your heart are yours to atone We've been surrounded, let 'em sing, let 'em sing

I've lost the plot again, tell your friends to sharpen their teeth There's a few quid to be made And my soul's a sorry state, so come on down, you empty lovers (Worms come out of the woodwork) And the snakes start to sing Do you feel the chill clawing at the back of your neck? I start to spill, did you really think that you could fix me? They'll sell your bones for another roll Well, sharpen your teeth, tell yourself that it's just business Worms come out of the woodwork Leeches crawl from out of the dirt Rats come out of the holes they call home I fall apart and the snakes start to sing Don't say I'm better off dead 'Cause Heaven's full and Hell won't have me Won't you make some room in your bed? Well, you could lock me up in your heart and throw away the key Won't you take me out of my head? I'm just a woulda been, coulda been, shoulda been Never was and never ever will be Well, sharpen your teeth, tell yourself that it's just business Woulda been, coulda been, shoulda been Never was and never ever will be (Worms come out of the woodwork) And the snakes start to sing Worms come out of the woodwork Leeches crawl from out of the dirt Rats come out of the holes they call home I fall apart and the snakes start to sing If you can't soar with the eagles, then don't fly with the flock Are you still getting high? Did you catch your own reflection in the knife my mother held? Or the hell in my father's eyes? If you can't soar with the eagles, then don't fly with the flock Are you still getting by? Was I your knight in shining armour, the apple of your eye? Or just a step to climb? If you can't soar with the eagles, then don't fly with the flock Are you still getting high? Did you catch your own reflection in the knife my mother held? Or the hell in my father's eyes? If you can't soar with the eagles, then don't fly with the flock Are you still getting by? Was I your knight in shining armour or the apple of your eye? Or just a step, a fucking step to climb?

Every second's soaked in sadness Every weekend is a war And I'm drowning in the déjà vu We've seen it all before I don't wanna do this by myself I don't wanna live like a broken record I've heard these lines a thousand times And I've seen it all before Are we close enough? There is something I must confide I think we've lost our touch There's no sparkle in those eyes What an awful mess I've made There's nothing left to say Every second's soaked in sadness Every weekend is a war And I'm drowning in the déjà vu We've seen it all before I don't wanna do this by myself I don't wanna live like a broken record I've heard these lines a thousand times And I've seen it all before There's nothing in the air tonight (Nothing in the air tonight) There's nothing in the air tonight There's nothing in the air tonight Every second's soaked in sadness Every weekend is a war And I'm drowning in the déjà vu We've seen it all before I don't wanna do this by myself I don't wanna live like a broken record I've heard these lines a thousand times And I've seen it all before I'm sorry, love, it's not enough We should feel the love so painfully It hurts right to the touch I know it stings, I know this cuts And I wish I could agree with you But this love, it's not enough (It's not enough, it's not enough)

"And then I found out how hard it is to really change Even Hell can get comfy once you've settled in I just wanted the numb inside me to leave No matter how fucked you get Sorrow is there when you come back down Funny thing is, all I ever wanted I already had There's glimpses of heaven in every day In the friends I have, the music I make, with the love I feel I just had to start again" The days are a deathwish A witch-hunt for an exit I am powerless The fragile, the broken Sit in circles and stay unspoken We are powerless Because we all walk alone on an empty staircase Silent halls and nameless faces I am powerless Everybody wants to go to Heaven, but nobody wants to die I can't fear death, no longer, I've died a thousand times Why explore the universe when we don't know ourselves? There's an emptiness inside our heads that no one dares to dwell Throw me to the flames Watch me burn Set my world ablaze Watch me burn How are we on a scale of one to ten? Could you tell me what you see? Do you wanna talk about it? How does that make you feel? Have you ever took a blade to your wrists? Have you been skipping meals? We're gonna try something new today How does that make you feel? Hold me close, don't let go, watch me (Burn) Hold me close, don't let go, watch me (Burn) Hold me close, don't let go, watch me (Burn) In this hospital for souls Hold me close, don't let go, watch me (Burn) Hold me close, don't let go, watch me (Burn) Hold me close, don't let go, watch me (Burn) In this hospital for souls Hold me close, don't let go, watch me (Burn) Hold me close, don't let go, watch me (Burn) Hold me close, don't let go, watch me (Burn) In this hospital for souls Hold me close, don't let go, watch me burn Hold me close, don't let go, watch me burn Hold me close, don't let go, watch me burn In this hospital for souls Hold me close, don't let go, watch me burn Hold me close, don't let go, watch me burn Hold me close, don't let go, watch me burn In this hospital for souls

They drag me underground The lights are slowly fading The world I thought I knew I never knew at all The dead don't make a sound Unless you're chasing rainbows And then, they scream your name Clawing at the gates So, pull me out And hold me down Let's find a way To lose ourselves Take me to the sun I feel I'm chasing rainbows And now, I'm lost and all alone Waiting for a chance to Sink my teeth into Another desperation Now, into your lonely Paradise Are we just dreaming In the city that never sleeps? 'Cause I can't be seeing What my eyes tell me Am I just dreaming? This can't be in my veins Everything I ever knew Will never be the same So, chew me up And spit me out Let's find a way To save ourselves So, pull me out And hold me down Let's find a way To lose ourselves Take me to the sun I feel I'm chasing rainbows And now, I'm lost and all alone Waiting for a chance to Sink my teeth into Another desperation Now, into your lonely Paradise And now I feel it Yeah, I feel it in my blood I can't fight this anymore I've given up I've given up Take me to the sun I feel I'm chasing rainbows And now, I'm lost and all alone Waiting for a chance to Sink my teeth into Another desperation Now, into your lonely Paradise Take me to the sun I feel I'm chasing rainbows And now, I'm lost and all alone Waiting for a chance to Sink my teeth into Another desperation Now, into your lonely Paradise, yeah

Eyes like a car crash I know I shouldn't look, but I can't turn away Body like a whiplash Salt my wounds, but I can't heal the way I feel about you I watch you like a hawk I watch you like I'm gonna tear you limb from limb Will the hunger ever stop? Can we simply starve this sin? That little kiss you stole, it held my heart and soul And like a deer in the headlights, I meet my fate Don't try to fight the storm, you'll tumble overboard Tides will bring me back to you And on my deathbed All I'll see is you The life may leave my lungs But my heart will stay with you That little kiss you stole, it held my heart and soul And like a ghost in the silence, I disappear Don't try to fight the storm, you'll tumble overboard Tides will bring me back to you The waves will pull us under Tides will bring me back to you The waves will pull us under Tides will bring me back to you The waves will pull us under Tides will bring me back to you Tides will bring me back to you That little kiss you stole, it held my heart and soulAnd like a ghost in the silence, I disappear Don't try to fight the storm, you'll tumble overboard Tides will bring me back to you That little kiss you stole, it held my heart and soul And like a deer in the headlights, I meet my fate Don't try to fight the storm, you'll tumble overboard Tides will bring me back to you
