Can you believe this world's got the nerve to insist they won't trade for a better one?
Can you believe this world's yellin' out in the dark it wants to be left alone?
Can you believe this world never woulda had the chance without us giving it blood?
Can you believe this world lacks the common courtesy to thank us all for the love?

Chorus:
Set it on fire!
Set it on fire!
Set it on fire!
Set it on fire!
Set it on fire! (x3)

Can you believe this world's like a glassy eyed swiller caught sippin' another one?
Can you believe this world's like a tyrant taking over anything that it wants?
Can you believe this world's like a wounded martyr worried if his commitment is gone?
Can you believe this world's like a vagrant in the gutter talkin' nothing is wrong?

Chorus:
Set it on fire
Set it on fire
Set it on fire
Set it on fire
Set it on fire (x3)

Can you believe this world's just a double dealin' joker, gonna stick to his guns?
Can you believe this world's just a television blaring, a million devils at once?
Can you believe this world's just a charmer in disguise with a lavender soul?
Can you believe this world's just exactly as we built it, runnin' out of control?

Chorus:
Set it on fire!
Set it on fire!
Set it on fire!
Set it on fire!
Set it on fire! (x3)

Please tell me,
Why are we,
Trying so hard.

Why worry,
It's over,
We always fall right back,
To where we start.

There goes another one of our,
Sure-fire plans,
It backfired again,
We try to think it through,
The best that we can,
I bet it's gonna backfire again.

Take what its,
Given you,
How does that sound,
Everything is,
All thought through,
And fool-proof,
Now watch it all,
Crumble down,
And down again.

There goes another one of our,
Sure-fire plans,
It backfired again,
We try to think it through,
The best that we can,
I bet it's gonna backfire again!,
Backfire again,
It's gonna backfire again!.

Knives dont carry,
Laws that vary,
They're just what we fought on,
Save me coffin,
Scars are talking,
Tell us where we are,
(Where we are now)
Where we are now,
(Where we are now)
Where we are now,
They ah! A ah! A ah! talking,
They ah! They ah,!
Were telling them a story!.

There goes another one of our,
Sure-fire plans,
It backfired again,
(Sure-fire plans)
We try to think it through,
(Yeah yeah Oh!)
The best that we can,
I bet it's gonna backfire again!,
(A ah! Backfired again).

There goes another one of our,
Sure-fire plans,
(Sure-fire plans)
It backfired again,
We try to think it through,
The best the we can,
(Backfired again!)
I bet it's gonna backfire again.

Feeling overload
Carrying bottled skies around
I've been drowning all along
Wearing out in a faltered sea
And I give up

Common sense failed again
Meddling in a foreign scene
Foreign dream
Time won't spare another sun
Daring me with another choice another choice

Anymore, I don't know who to fight anymore
I don't know what is right anymore, anymore

Anymore, I don't know who to fight anymore
I don't know what is right anymore, anymore

Anymore, I don't know how to feel anymore
I don't know what is real anymore, anymore

Anymore, I don't know who to trust anymore
I don't know what I want anymore, anymore

Anymore, I don't know who to blame anymore
I don't know what to say anymore, anymore

Anymore, I don't know what I want anymore
I just don't know anymore

(Ahh ahh, ahh ahh)

You got a whole lot left to say now
You knocked all your wind out
You just tried too hard and you froze
I know, I know

What do you say, what do you say

Just take the fall
You're one of us
The spotlight is on
(Ahh ahh)
Oh the spotlight is on, oh

You know the one thing you're fighting to hold
Will be the one thing you've got to let go
And when you feel the war cannot be won
You're gonna die to try what can't be done
Gonna stay stay out but you don't care
Now is there nothing like that inside of you anywhere

Oh just take a fall
You're one of us
The spotlight is on
(Ahh ahh)
Oh the spotlight is on, yeah it's on

Because everyone would rather watch you fall
And we all are, yeah
And we all are, yeah
Just take a fall
You're one of us
The spotlight is on
(Ahh ahh)
Oh the spotlight is on
(Just take the fall)
Now you're one of us
Now you're, now you're, now you're, now you're one of us
Now you're, now you're, now you're one of us
Oh the spotlight is on

(Ahh ahh)

I wanna confide in my head
I wanna confide in my head
I gathered up thoughts left for dead
I want
I want

I buried my head in the sand
I buried my head in the sand
I want to tell I understand
I don’t
I don’t

And if it all is black and white
Then tell me what is wrong and right
I don’t suppose that anybody knows
And maybe when we reach the end
We’ll ask imaginary friends
By no response

I’ve spoken my piece in the dark
I’ve spoken my piece in the dark
I’ve spoken just not ...
I call
I call

I’ve noticed my sense in the cold
I’ve noticed my sense in the cold
I’ve noticed someone’s getting old
I’m done
I’m done

And if it all is black and white
Then tell me what is wrong and right
I don’t suppose that anybody knows
And maybe when we reach the end
We’ll ask imaginary friends
By no response

Ahhhhhhhhhh
Ahhhhhhhhhh

And if it all is black and white
Then tell me what is wrong and right
I don’t suppose that anybody knows
And maybe when we reach the end
We’ll ask imaginary friends
By no response

Paper thin conviction,
Turning another page,
Plotting how to build myself to be
Everything that I am not at all.

Sometimes I get tired of pins and needles,
Facades are a fire on the skin.
And I'm growing fond of broken people,
As I see that I am one of them.

I'm one of them. [x2]

Oh, why must I work so hard,
Just so I can feel like the nobles ones?
Obligations to my heart are gone,
Superficial lines explain it all.

Sometimes I get tired of pins and needles,
Facades are a fire on the skin.
Oh, I'm growing fond of broken people,
As I see that I am one of them.

Sometimes I get tired of pins and needles,
Facades are a fire on the skin.
Oh, and I'm growing fond of broken people,
As I see that I am one of them.

I'm one of them. [x4]

You don't have to try
running from each other
I read your eyes
You don't have to bother
Maybe we'll survive
If we don't discover
One life ties to another

Cause the world won't turn
If the sun won't rise
And the stars won't burn
In a broken sky

And the wind won't surf
If the ocean's dry
And my heart won't work
If you say goodbye

If you say goodbye
If you say goodbye
If you say goodbye
My heart's in trouble

I'd rather die
Holding one another
Your hand in mine
It's easy and it's not for
Understanding why
The world is out of color
One life ties to another

Cause the world won't turn
If the sun won't rise
And the stars won't burn
In a broken sky

And the wind won't surf
If the ocean's dry
And my heart won't work
If you say goodbye

If you say goodbye
If you say goodbye
If you say goodbye
My heart's in trouble

Oh, if you say goodbye
If you say goodbye
If you say goodbye
My heart's in trouble

Oh, before it never mattered at all
Oh, before it never mattered at all
Oh, oh, oh...

Cause the world won't turn
If the sun won't rise
And my heart won't work
If you say goodbye

If you say goodbye
If you say goodbye
If you say goodbye
My heart's in trouble
(x2)

Back and forth the same
be careful how you frame
your argument
your argument

We've been given all we can
and it finally showed the end
of our tolerance
our tolerance

(chorus)
I know it's hard to say
but throw it all away
But the odds are
we'd be better off

And it's a painful thought
to try another start
but the odds are
we'd be better off

Cast another vote
In our sad terminal
Democracy
Democracy

The word is out on us
we have gone delirious
The floor is falling out from under us
It always does!

(chorus)
I know it's hard to say
but throw it all away
But the odds are
we'd be better off

And it's a painful thought
to try another start
but the odds are
we'd be better off...

She knows every little way to get the thing that she wants.
My heart is an oven,
And she’s pushing the buttons right now,
Right now.
She’s gonna kill me with a stare and I’m very aware.
No matter what I say,
She’s just walking away right now.
But I’ll be ready when she calls.

I’m in love with this girl, , that’s got my head,
Electrified.
I hope that someday she might go too far,
Go too far.

Cause all I can think about is me and her,
Electrified.
I hope that someday she might take me home,
And lose control.

Stall and wait is the game she plays,
She knows better than to try,
But I’m hoping she might wear down.
Wear down.
Oh it’s just tearing me apart getting stuck in the dark.
I’m doin’ what I can,
But she can’t understand right now.
But I’ll be ready when she calls.

I’m in love with this girl, that’s got my head
Electrified.
I hope that someday she might go too far,
Go too far.

Cause all I can think about is me and her,
Electrified.
I hope that someday she might take me home,
And lose control.

I feel it, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it runnin’ through my bones.
Ohh.
I feel it, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it runnin’ through my bones.
My bones.
I feel it, I feel it, I feel it, I feel it, I feel you runnin’ through my bones.
Ohh.
I feel you runnin’ through my bones.
Yaaohhh.

I’m in wires for you girl,
You’re coursing through my mind.
All I think about is you,
Yeah I’m electrified.

I’m in love with this girl, that’s got my head,
Electrified.
I hope that someday she might go too far,
Go too far.

Cause all I think about is how you and I,
Could electrify.
I hope that someday you might take me home,
And lose control.

Maybe sometime, sometime, sometime.
Say that you are mine, show me, sometime.

You gotta electrify.

Maybe sometime, sometime, sometime.
Say that you are mine, show me, sometime.

I can feel it runnin’ through my bones.
Ohh.
Ya I can feel it runnin’ through my bones.
Ohhaaa!

Out of time and out of inclinations, that we're in
How's it feel to watch a man relenting
Let's just say that I might be a sucker
The progress is all in how you cope in spite of no end

You don't have to say it, I know
It's all my fault
You don't have to worry, I know
It's how we are
You don't have to say it, I know
It's all my fault
The give and take is taking its toll

It's an honest work if I can stand up on it, maybe we're
Not as far apart as it appears
Swallowing the blame is second nature, I got to
Keep on dealing my business my way

You don't have to say it, I know
It's all my fault
You don't have to worry, I know
It's how we are
You don't have to say it, I know
It's all my fault
The give and take is taking its toll

I I know (I know)
it's all (it's all)
My (my)
Fault
I
Will take the fall if it takes us somewhere
I I know (I know)
it's all (it's all)
My (my)
Fault
I
Will take the fall if it takes us somewhere

The give and take
The give and take
The give and take is taking its toll
The give and take
The give and take
The give and take is taking its toll

You don't have to say it, I know
It's all my fault
You don't have to worry, I won't
It falls apart
You don't have to say it, I know
It's all my fault
The give and take is taking its toll

You don't have to say it
You don't have to say it
You don't have to say it
You don't have to say it

Hold on to the way we started
how it all should have gone
somewhere love was disregarded
and it all came undone
undone

cuz nothings a breeze
we suffer we bleed
for two hearts to beat as one
we learn as we go
at least now we know
something we can't become
become

if a talk could really solve this
what are we fighting for?
Words hurt more then they arm us
don't say anymore
anymore

cuz nothings a breeze
we suffer we bleed
for two hearts to beat as one
we learn as we go
at least now we know
something we can't become
become

Oh for a year we were strong and courageous
but we lost it somehow
Oh if there was something that could have saved us
we'd have found it by now

cuz nothings a breeze
we suffer we bleed
for two hearts to beat as one
we learn as we go
but at least now we know
something we can't become
become

Theres no luck
in our lives
no living under starlight
no sight
in your eyes
to keep us from running around in circles anymore
whoaaa

hold on to the way we started
how it all should have gone

Crime in the currency
Fire down a bending wall
Or would you care to be
In all the gambling that got started

No one is better off
Hope is a candle lit night
No one is meant to be
On anything afloat

We just lie awake in a stolen thought
We just lie awake and imagine what we are
We hide and wait for some golden star
And hope the dirt is wearing off

Fall like a domino
Lob up another mistake
All of it's killing me
Let's find a bitter end and restart it

Love isn't what you want
Hold if you can't believe
Facing a loaded gun
In time to take a look at what's causing
all the fuss, we mustn't buckle all
At once

We just lie awake in a stolen thought
We just lie awake and imagine what we are
We hide and wait for some golden star
And hope the dirt is wearing off

I just can't hold it together

We just lie awake in a stolen thought
We just lie awake and imagine what we are
We hide and wait for some golden star
And hope the dirt is wearing off

The devil is not the nature that is around us
But the nature that is within us all

[No lyrics]

I'll take it slow now
And be alright, yeah we alright
Hold yourself together
'Cuz I lost mine, yeah I lost mine
But it's alright

(Ooh repeatedly...)

Knee-jerk reactions
causing trouble, causing trouble
Got my condition
in a scuffle, in a scuffle

(Ooh repeatedly...)

I won't concern myself
any longer, any longer
On how to recover
from a stall out, from a stall out
I'll keep singin'...

(Ooh repeatedly...)

I wanna fly tonight
It's alright
It's alright
Follow the open sky
It's alright
It's alright

I wanna fly tonight
It's alright
It's alright
Follow the open sky
It's alright
It's alright, yeah.

I wanna fly tonight
It's alright
It's alright
Follow the open sky
It's alright
It's alright

I wanna fly tonight
It's alright
It's alright

[No lyrics]

Time is a thief with a loaded gun
The sky runs by while the days are gone
The night falls prey to another sun
Oh, like clockwork they won't stop
They won't stop

Don't stand still or we'll lose our ground
The world keeps spinning just to wear us down
Say what you must while we're still around
The days go to sleep but they won't stop
They won't stop

We never should allow another sun to set
On all the words that we have held so long
I know we'd rather sort it out once tomorrow comes
But tomorrow already happened

Time is a thief with a loaded gun
The sky runs by while the days are gone
The night falls prey to another sun
The days go to sleep but they won't stop, no

We never should allow another sun to set
On all the words that we have held so long
I know we'd rather sort it out once tomorrow comes
But tomorrow already happened
Tomorrow

We can wait for the sunrise
To say what should matter
We'll know by tomorrow
But tomorrow, tomorrow just happened

Today we need to make the most of love
Tomorrow we don't have a choice
All we ever get control of is now

I know we'd rather sort it out once tomorrow comes
But tomorrow already happened
Woah

I know we'd rather sort it out once tomorrow comes
But tomorrow already happened
