It's nights like this under a harvest moon It came too fast, and it's gone too soon A wilted rose and a frozen tomb A memory for the wind, anyway Has anybody noticed that the sky is falling? Are we all just happy in the rain? Am I the only one who hears the sirens calling? Am I the only one who feels the pain? It's times like these When the sorrow shadows all the laughter Times like these When the hurt goes on and on forever Times like these I wanna fade away I read all the pages from left to right I took one in the morning and one at night A fire still burns, but it's cold inside It's all that I can do, anyway No one wants to talk about the end is coming Pointing fingers, handing out the blame If I gave you answers to all your questions Could you change or would you stay the same? 'Cause it's times like these When left is right and forwards, backwards Times like these When days and nights just roll together Times like these I wanna fade away Fade away Fade away Times like these (These) I wanna fade away (Fade away) In times like these (Like these) Times like these 'Cause it's times like these When the sorrow shadows all the laughter It's times like these When it seems like nothing worse can happen Times like these, it's times like these I wanna fade away It's times like these (Like these) I wanna fade away (Fade away) It's time like these (Like these) In times like these

This will be the last tear I shed for you Some say they kill for God And some kill for sport The only difference makes no difference to me It just depends on what looks better in court 'Cause it's a knock-down, drag-out "Everybody bow down" Sick and twisted game that you play There are no resolutions In the broken institutions Or the funny bloody money you crave This is the last tear This is the last time There was a time that I believed I could've changed it all Somebody got to me Somebody's got to pay There was a time that I believed I could've changed the world Now I can't, now I don't, now I won't So, roll dem bones Puff your chest out at me Just what the fuck were you thinking? I wrote the book on that shit Bound it, backed it, burned it all down I'm a bully-beating reaper Cheating supervillain, king of heathens Everything you know that you're not You're like a half-wit parlor trick No one ever gave a shit I'm laughing on the day that you drop This is the last tear This is the last time There was a time that I believed I could've changed it all Somebody got to me Somebody's got to pay There was a time that I believed I could've changed the world Now I can't, now I don't, now I won't So, roll dem bones This is the last tear This is the last time There was a time that I believed I could've changed it all Somebody got to me Somebody's got to pay There was a time that I believed I could've changed the world Now I can't, now I don't, now I won't So, roll dem bones Roll dem bones

Do you remember when you said this wasn't real? Life was just a game we played, and time was made to kill Do you remember when you said we'd never laughed? You set me up for failure, then you threw me in the trash I've forgotten how heavy you are You're becoming so hard to hold on to No matter how far or how hard you fall I'll be there to pick up behind you "Do you remember how the pulse felt in my chest? Or did you simply block it out, erase it like the rest? Do you remember how your heart would never change?" You told me as you turned away and left me with the pain I've forgotten how heavy you are You're becoming so hard to hold on to No matter how far or how hard you fall I'll be there to pick up behind you I've forgotten how heavy you are You're becoming too hard to hold on to No matter how far or how hard you fall I'll be there to pick up behind you I've forgotten how heavy you are (Heavy you are) You're becoming so hard to hold on to No matter how far or how hard you fall I'll be there to pick up behind you

It's hard to tell these days in which way that we’re falling I'm not sure anymore what's right or what is wrong It hurts to feel, to think, to know I may be nothing But then again, I’ve been wrong before I've opened up my eyes Just to wish that I'd stayed blind Blacken out the sky And let the arrows fly It's never over Not 'til it's over Outside looking in When do the nightmares end? Over and over Until it's over The end It's hard to fathom Just how fast we all are spinning It’s hard to know That there’s a heaven bеyond hell It burns a hole right through my soul To think it's ending But thеn again I’ve been right before I've opened up my eyes Just to find out you're all blind Blacken out the sky And let the arrows fly It's never over Not ’til it's over Outside looking in When do the nightmares end? Over and over Until it's over Make a wish, say a prayer Hope that someone is out there Build a bridge to Babylon Then burn it to the ground Make a wish, say a prayer Hope that someone is out there Build a bridge to Babylon Then burn it to the ground (Burn it to the ground) Burn it to the ground (Burn it to the ground) Burn it to the ground (Burn it to the ground) Build a bridge to Babylon Then burn it, burn it, burn it down Blacken out the sky And let the arrows fly It's never over Not 'til it's over Outside looking in When do the nightmares end? Over and over Until it's over Just start it over Until it's over Over and over The end The end
