All the wrath and all the faith I have inside is eating me alive Most tend to put their dreams aside to get them through the day But my eyes are open, and I see the sky And I am infinite I continue on I will never fear the unknown And I am infinite I can continue on Limitless and unbreakable, the wavering wishes of man are but a whimper Now stand up high to come and live forever with me Now stand up high to come and live forever with me All hope is not lost All hope is not lost Some things seem so far away to a half-hearted and broken youth Terrified of the outside and everything It's just within your reach Everything is just within your reach Everything is just within your reach

But when the spotlight comes Where have the words gone? The fall from grace is paved with your lies Stand strong behind your beliefs If you can even manage to stand at all What happened to the blood pumping through your veins? You’ve scattered the ashes of an iron faith The sun fades below the horizon And you say goodbye to what used to be They try to hang pictures of perfection on every wall and every corner But the negatives fail to transfer to the final print Defy the leader! Step away from the line! No one will ever get the best of me! What do you stand for? Tell me now, what do you stand for? So sing your song with the highest choir Preach from the top of the world Share your voice Admiration of the highest degree What happened to the blood pumping through your veins? You’ve scattered the ashes of an iron faith The sun fades below the horizon And you say goodbye to what used to be And now I'm washing my hands of this and leaving it all behind I'll wash my hands And leave it behind And leave it behind

I've got something here worth fighting for (Give it all, give it all, give it all) Give me everything that you've got It's all for one or it's none for all You're giving me the reason to keep coming back again and again (Give it all, give it all, give it all) Not a single voice unheard or unspoken I'm not passing time, not along for the ride You're the fuel to my fire, now watch me burn Who needs fame and who needs fortune? 'Cause I've got guts and I've got glory We took a shot in the dark and we might have failed This is our one chance So ready to see how things turn out I might have to bite the bullet again Resentment no longer my cross to bear Bitterness and emptiness are a thing of the past I've found my shelter, I have my home I've got something here worth fighting for (Give it all, give it all, give it all) Give me everything that you've got It's all for one or it's none for all You're giving me the reason to keep coming back again and again (Give it all, give it all, give it all) Not a single voice unheard or unspoken I'm not passing time, not along for the ride You're the fuel to my fire, now watch me burn There's no coming back from this This could be my destiny, I won't stray from the path Nothing else can take control of my mind I've got something here worth fighting for (Give it all, give it all, give it all) Give me everything that you've got It's all for one or its none for all You're giving me the reason to keep coming back again and again (Give it all, give it all, give it all) Not a single voice unheard or unspoken I'm not passing time, not along for the ride You're the fuel to my fire, now watch me burn (Burn) With screams over silence taking place of the violence Standing together, we are never alone With screams over silence taking place of the violence Standing together, we are never alone With screams over silence taking place of the violence Standing together, we are never alone

I say fear me and fear death too You can't keep me on the ground Made to suffer, but no longer This is coming to an end It's time for your reign To stop its constant downpour Endure this drought that you've been bringing on for so long Fear me, fear death, fear the life you love The light will shine for you no longer I'll banish you back to dark I'll banish you back to dark For you the light will shine no longer, punk I was made for war I was built for everyone who lacks the means to scream Lacks the means to scream To anyone who's been locked out of their dreams Beaten and broken, I will prevail The life you hold down is the one you shunned so long ago I have fear in one hand and fire in the other I'll end this terror that you've started I was made for war I was built for everyone who lacks the means to scream Lacks the means to scream To anyone who's been locked out of their dreams Beaten and broken, I will prevail Sever the rope that holds my anchor I'll watch as you sink Now you'll know what it's like to be left out Now you'll know how it feels to be nothing

Rushing in and out, and in and out of my mind We live and obey with some kind of hate Dreading the time to come when we've got no, no time at all I want to take the time to stop and think About doing this, and what it might mean to be When I close my eyes, there's nothing but darkness revealed It's right there in front of me Looking forward for a taste of things to come I can't see familiar faces on anyone Life is trying to pass me by But not this time I am not afraid Mat Bruso of Bury Your Dead You're not getting older, you're just getting old And your finish wears thin as your stories get told Yet you've somehow impressed her, she's already sold The one page in your book that's still shining in gold says "Wishing for the years to flash by Has left me blind I'm waiting for the few fleeting moments Where the world makes sense to me" I want to take the time to stop and think About doing this, and what it might mean to be When I close my eyes, there's nothing but darkness revealed It's right there in front of me Looking forward for a taste of things to come I can't see familiar faces on anyone Life is trying to pass me by But not this time I am not afraid I am not afraid My search continues for a taste of things to come I can't see familiar faces on anyone Life is trying its best to pass by But not this time I am not afraid I am not afraid

Let's put an end to this once and for all We've found strength in numbers And when your time runs out, what will you believe? I'm in no search for salvation or sanity Your words are bringing me down Just leave me be A sinking ship, escape from these shackles at home Led to your bleeding heart, and I'm standing alone A song, some psalm about hope and fear Subject to the words of a voice I don't hear Constructing an army of fallen men before my eyes But I don't want your council, I walk my own line I live the life of the true I do not bleed My eyes only see the ones who don't believe Just the sight of the hopeless with no calling or a place in the sun It takes more than might to move the masses It takes strength beyond strength to stand for something I can see your arms open to welcome the storm I see the boundaries I know this game I can stand with you though we don't see the same I want you to know the love that set me free I don't worship a concept, I follow a king We walk through water to bridge the gap between lives and separate sides And when it comes to this there will be no war, there should be no pride You've always hated what you've never known And never loved what you were never shown Drop your guard and be as strong as "we" Finally free Block out the sun until the walls cave in Block out the sun until the walls cave in Tearing down the walls between two sides Respecting each other's lives with no fear no pride Bridging the gap that exists, though there are still two sides Please know I'm on your side We walk through water to bridge the gap between lives and separate sides Drop your guard and be as strong as "we" Finally free Let's put an end to this once and for all We've found strength in numbers And when your time runs out, what will you believe?

Days can fade, and lives can slip away Any song can be silenced It's time that we start this over I know what it's like to fall face down We've all been there before With no life in sight When it feels like the world just gave up With no strength to see it through Raise a fist up to the sky Scream it loud "I'm not ready to die." A hymn for the hopeless My song to the deaf I learned to push past the pain I've seen it before, it's never the same Aim an ear to the heavens Still waiting for a sign of life I'm gonna build this wall from brick Twice as thick, so you cannot tear it down And then it rang in my head "Love is what you make it Some hands we have to fold And the hardest lessons you will learn are the ones you've been told" I'm face to face with death himself I know this won't be the end of me, I just know it You always will be my enemy, I control it I know what it's like to fall face down We've all been there before With no life in sight When it feels like the world just gave up With no strength to see it through Raise a fist up to the sky Scream it loud "I'm not ready to die." A hymn for the hopeless My song to the deaf I learned to push past the pain I've seen it before, it's never the same Aim an ear to the heavens Still waiting for a sign of life I'm gonna build this wall from brick Twice as thick, so you cannot tear it down Days can fade, and lives can slip away Any song can be silenced It's time that we start this over

Searching for something that cannot be found An end with no means to reach Look to the light that we'll never see Is this life? Or some kind of dream? I am a dreamer, so blind my eyes! x2 My absence meant more than this All the things I've come to miss, are gone! I am a returner, just not tonight! (I am a returner)

Let's go! Pride and pity play no part of the process Like allegiance lost in hellfire, I've lost it all Tell the maker of my grave that I'm not dead There's far too many things in life I left unsaid Any face and any place to tell me none of this was in vain I'd live this all again, if you'd do the same So to the shadows, I disappear To stay forever, but I won't end here! Dear God, my world is ending As quickly as it starts, everything is gone And everything went wrong! I've spent so much time trying to live the lie To be a part of something bold as blood Take me home, to embrace the nothingness Now I'm home, to embrace that there's nothing left Pride and pity play no part of the process Like allegiance lost in hellfire, I've lost it all Tell the maker of my grave that I'm not dead There's far too many things in life I left unsaid Any face and any place to tell me none of this was in vain I'd live this all again, if you'd do the same No cave can hide me! And no one will find me Over the years No apologies, no regrets! No regrets!

We're bringing on the night, and everything that it entails This is for all the of times I've been made into a saint Haunted by a halo you thought was a way out We tell ourselves these things in hopes it brings us to the path we seek The only hope was the words I've said to you, to get you through! The only hope was the words I've said, to you! To, get, you, through! Anger sank in today, and it's sad to say that it's here to stay But battle through the days that bring you to your knees To all my demons that breathe fire down on me and Every angel that shares it grace with me I am no king, I am no king A hollow man in a world of thieves This tragedy plays out, over again We're bringing on the night, and everything that it entails This is for all the of times I've been made into a saint (Into a saint!) I stand in defiance of all your kings (and the fear that they bring) Crushing the strength of some It's not fair; I don't care! I am not defeated It's not fair; I don't care! I am not defeated Out of all the words left to say, this is what you need to hear: "To all my demons that breathe fire down on me, and Every angel that shares it grace with me I am no king, I am no king"
