Stretch the bones over my skin Stretch the skin over my head I'm going to the holy land Stretch the marks over my eyes Burn the candles deep inside Yeah you know where I'm coming from Give up to greed, you don't have to feed me Give up to fate, you don't have to need me So let it go, let it go, let it go, won't you let it Drown me in you, drown me in you, drown me in you Slip down the darkness to the mouth Damn the water burn the wine I'm going home for the very last time So throw it away, you don't have to take me Make no mistakes I'm what you make me So let it go, let it go, let it go, won't you let it Drown me in you, drown me in you, drown me in you I see you turn around and burning down The feeling starts to sink I feel the hurt surround me Please dissolve me She's resolved to be Heal my wounds without a trace Seal my tomb without my face I'm going to the lonely place Give up to greed, you don't have to feed me Give up to fate, you don't have to need me So let it go, let it go, let it go, won't you let it Drown me in you, drown me in you, drown me in you

Hello don't you know me I'm the dirt beneath your feet The most important fool you forgot to see I've seen how you give it Now I want to receive I know that you would do the same for me I know I'm headed for the bottom But I'm riding you all the way For all of your kisses turned to spit in my face For all that reminds me which is my place For all of the times when you made me disappear This time I'm sure you will know that I'm here I know I'm headed for the bottom But I'm riding you all the way My place was beneath you but now I'm above And now I send you a message of love A simple reminder of what you won't see A future so holy without me I know I'm headed for the bottom But I'm riding you all the way

If this isn't what you see It doesn't make you blind If this doesn't make you feel It doesn't mean you've died Where the river's high Where the river's high If you don't want to be seen You don't have to hide If you don't want to believe You don't have to try To feel alive Alive in the superunknown First it steals your mind And then it steals your soul If this doesn't make you free It doesn't mean you're tied If this doesn't take you down It doesn't mean you're high If this doesn't make you smile You don't have to cry If this isn't making sense It doesn't make it lies Alive in the superunknown First it steals your mind And then it steals your soul Get yourself afraid Get yourself alone Get yourself contained Get yourself control Alive in the superunknown First it steals your mind And then it steals your... soul

We see that smile We see that smile We see that smile on your face Be kind Beware We see that smile on your face We see you laugh We see you dance We take that away every day We see you cry We turn your head Then we slap your face Bow down Bow down Bow down to your life Head down Head down Head down, hide that smile Head high Head high Head high, you've got to smile [x2] We see you try We see you fail Some things never change We hear you cry We hear you wail We steal that smile from your face Bow down Bow down Bow down to your life Head down Head down Head down, hide that smile Head high Head high Head high, you've got to smile Head high Head high Head high like a song you like

Tears of the feeble, hands of the slaves Skin of the mothers, mouths of the babes Building the towers, belongs to the sky When the whole thing comes crashing down Don't ask me why Under the shelf, the shelf of the sky Two eyes, two suns, too heavenly blinds Swallowing rivers, belongs to the sea When the whole thing washes away Don't run to me I'll be going down for the rest of the slide While the rest of you harvest the gold And the wreck of you Is the death of you all And the wreck of you Is the break and the fall I'm the wreck of you I'm the death of you all I'm the wreck of you I'm the break and the fall Under the red break of the lights Heroes in stretches inch to the site Blowing the pieces, belong to the wind When the whole thing blows away I won't pretend I'll be going down for the rest of the slide While the rest of you harvest the souls And the wreck of you Is the death of you all And the wreck of you Is the break and the fall I'm the wreck of you I'm the death of you all I'm the wreck of you I'm the break and the fall Behind the blood red break of the lights Lies the wreck of you for the rest of your life And the wreck of you Is the death of you all And the wreck of you Is the break and the fall I'm the wreck of you I'm the death of you all I'm the wreck of you I'm the break and the fall

Kickstand, you got loose and I threw up Kickstand, you got the juice to fill my cup My mother says that it's alright My mother says that's the only life So do it right Do it right Come stand me up Come stand me up Kickstand, I got saddle made of leather Kickstand, I got the words to come together I got the urge to ride your trike My mother says that's the only life

Long time coming It seemed to take me through Long time coming Many served the few And long to taste the shame That bows down before you Long time coming It seemed to get me by Long time coming It seemed to satisfy You longed to taste the shame That everybody tries Shame shame throw yourself away Give me little bits of more than I can take If it sits upon your tongue or naked in your eyes Give me little bits of more than I can try Long time coming It seemed to take me through Long time coming Many served the few And long to taste the shame That bows down before you Shame shame throw yourself away Give me little bits of more than I can take If it sits upon your tongue or naked in your eyes Give me little bits of more than I can try

Shower in the dark day Clean sparks diving down Cool in the waterway Where the baptized drown Naked in the cold sun Breathing life like fire Thought I was the only one But that was just a lie Cause I heard it in the wind And I saw it in the sky And I thought it was the end And I thought it was the 4th of July Pale in the flare light The scared light cracks & disappears And leads the scorched ones here And everywhere no one cares The fire is spreading And no one wants to speak about it Down in the hole Jesus tries to crack a smile Beneath another shovel load And I heard it in the wind And I saw it in the sky And I thought it was the end And I thought it was the 4th of July Now I'm in control Now I'm in the fall out Once asleep but now I stand And I still remember Your sweet everything Light a Roman candle And hold it in your hand Cause I heard it in the wind And I saw it in the sky And I thought it was the end And I thought it was the 4th of July

When I hand my love in I'll be done A handed glove Hides the door Half a chance Half a chance We still Have a chance Mr. Full, Mr. Have Kills Mr. Empty Hand Half a chance Half a chance We still Have a chance

Heard it from another room Eyes were waking up just to fall asleep Love's like suicide Dazed out in a garden bed With a broken neck lays my broken gift Just like suicide And my last ditch Was my last brick Lent to finish her Finish her Bit down on the bullet now I had a taste so sour I had to think of something sweet Love's like suicide Safe outside my gilded cage With an ounce of pain I wield a ton of rage Just like suicide With eyes of blood And bitter blue How I feel for you I feel for you She lived like a murder How she'd fly so sweetly She lived like a murder But she dies Just like suicide
