Everything that makes you tremble
Everything that makes you cry
Everything that makes you turn to God and ask Him why

Everything that crumbles and falls
Everything that fades away
Everything you bury deep behind the things you say

You cannot hide in the end
I'll cut you down, you'll wear me thin

When shadows draw you in
I'll watch you suffer
Turn your back and walk away
I'll plague you from within
I'll make you suffer
Turn you back to face the pain

Everything you can't rekindle
Everything you've led astray
Everything that makes you turn deception into hate

Everything you've cursed and broken
Everything you've compromised
Everything you carry deep behind your best disguise

You cannot hide in the end
I'll cut you down, you'll wear me thin

When shadows draw you in
I'll watch you suffer
Turn your back and walk away
I'll plague you from within
I'll make you suffer
Turn you back to face the pain

(bridge)

When shadows draw you in
I'll watch you suffer
Turn your back and walk away
I'll plague you from within
I'll make you suffer
Turn you back to face the pain

There's no escape...




MAKE IT OUT ALIVE

When everything you've got begins to come undone
and you're losing ground on every side,
Hope is dying with the setting sun
and you wonder if you're gonna survive,
Don't give up on anything you want that's worth fighting for,
Don't give up on anything you want, cause we will not back down

Whoa,
You gotta make it out alive,
Whoa,
Don't go out without a fight

When everything you've thought and everything you've done
seems like a blatant waste of effort and time,
Your feet are moving, but the race is run
and you wonder if you're losing your mind,
Don't give up on anything you want that's worth fighting for,
Don't give up on anything you want, cause we will not back down

Whoa,
You gotta make it out alive,
Whoa,
Don't go out without a fight

(bridge)

Whoa,
You gotta make it out alive,
Whoa,
Don't go out without a fight

Don't go out without a fight

Don't go out without a fight...




CRASH AND BURN

It started at a point in time
when the world was catching up faster than it aught to be,
and we thought we could control it
We put together brilliant minds
to conceive the means and make it a reality,
so the whole world could behold it
Then it took a wild turn
because the best laid plans are sometimes not enough,
and it happened so fast
that no one ever questioned why,
now we lie in wait in despair and uncertainty
and we thought we could control it

Crash,
put out the fire with gasoline,
we're singing hail to victory,
and the beast is there to join us
Burn,
it's a lesson that we'll never learn,
so we're doomed to repeat in turn,
the sins that came before us

We all ignored the warning signs
with the pressure building up faster than it aught to be,
and we thought they could control it
They put together to brilliant lies
to reprieve their deeds and make a new reality
so that they alone controlled it
Then it took a violent turn
because the things they said were just not adding up,
and it happened so fast...
And no one quite remembers why,
now there is no trace, it's nothing but a memory,
cause we thought we could control it

Crash,
put out the fire with gasoline,
we're singing hail to victory,
and the beast is there to join us
Burn,
it's a lesson that we'll never learn,
so we're doomed to repeat in turn,
the sins that came before us

It's gonna crash and burn...

Crash,
put out the fire with gasoline,
we're singing hail to victory,
and the beast is there to join us
Burn,
it's a lesson that we'll never learn,
so we're doomed to repeat in turn,
the sins that came before us

and again, and again,
and again, and again,

and again, and again,
and again, not again...




SCREAMING AT THE WALLS

As fire turns to ash and embers,
and time drips slowly through your hands,
the fading light keeps growing dimmer,
conceding to the darkness closing in

I'm screaming at the walls,
the curtain falls upon this final chapter,
all we know is dead...
The echoes through the halls pursue me
on into the ever after,
all we know is dead...

As days press on and years surrender,
and stones are worn down into sand,
the things and places you remember,
fall victim to the darkness closing in

I'm screaming at the walls,
the curtain falls upon this final chapter,
all we know is dead...
The echoes through the halls pursue me
on into the ever after,
all we know is dead...

Are we all born good?
Do we all turn bad?
I did what I could,
I gave what I had
Are we all born good?
Where did I go bad?
I did what I should,
I take nothing back...

I'm screaming at the walls,
the curtain falls upon this final chapter,
all we know is dead...
The echoes through the halls pursue me
on into the ever after,
all we know is dead...

I'm screaming at the walls...]]> http://theanthems.com/blog.html/lyrics Mon, 10 Aug 2009 02:49:13 -0700 Official Site - The Anthems - Blog
