Story Of The Year Album

Underneath the gun in front of waiting eyes
Our time has just begun no second chance to die

So we want the longest days to live inside the shortest nights
We compromise our hearts to keep them satisfied
The shadows of our past, hard to ignore but judgment means nothing that's notwhat we're fighting for

We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore

Underneath the gun in front of doubting eyes
We walk this path as one take on the world tonight
And we'll carve our names into their faults
We'll never sell ourselves that's not what we're fighting for

We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore

I won't let this love, I won't let this love die, I won't let it die
There is only one thing that matters this time
At the hands of judgment I won't let it die, no sacrifice, regrets left behind,I won't let it die

This time, yeah, this time I won't it die, that's not what we're fighting for
We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore
No we don't care anymore
We don't care anymore
We don't care anymore

I won't let this love, I won't let this love die

Do you still remember back when days were longer, dreams were bigger then
The weight of the world had not yet landed on the shoulders of a man
(I thought) I thought that time stood still, sheltered, protected
They never told me this would end or that the leaves would fall again

So take me back, back to better days
Cause this time between is wasting me away
Take me back, when we were not afraid
Cause this time between is wasting me away

There was a day when this world went to war and didn't bat an eye
Real life in the movies felt the same to me and I never questioned why
(I know) I know the difference now, between fact and fiction
But I've come to find that I've grown bitter in just 24 short years

So take me back, back to better days
Cause this time between is wasting me away
So take me back, when we were not afraid
Cause this time between is wasting me away

Wasting me away, Waste away
So now we're running, we're running blind into the light
And we fall behind
We're running and wasting away with time

So take me back, back to better days
Cause this time between is wasting me away
Take me back, when we were not afraid
Cause this time between is wasting me away
Take me back, yeah back to better days
Cause this time between is wasting me away
Take me back, when we were not afraid
Cause this time between is wasting me away

Yeah take me back, just take me back, yeah take me back
(Take me back)
Yeah take me back, just take me back, yeah take me back
(Take me back)
When we were not afraid

Today will be the day to start rising up and fighting back
And from this moment on we will live our lives
With open hearts and open eyes

Just keep pushing forward
We take control, We take control
Keep fighting onward
We take control, We take control
Keep pushing forward
We take control, We take control
And we will never step down

We won't fall or hesitate and from this running life we disengage
And we strive to break away and stop wasting time on these insecurities

Just keep pushing forward
We take control, We take control
Keep fighting onward
We take control, We take control
Keep pushing forward
We take control, We take control
And we will never step down

Our time is now, Our time is now, Our time is now
We won't step down, No we won't step down
No we won't step down, No we won't step down
We won't step down
Because our world is waiting for us to live
Because our world is waiting for us to live

So right now just keep pushing forward
We take control, We take control
Keep fighting onward
We take control, We take control
Just keep pushing forward
We take control, We take control
Keep fighting onward
We take control, We take control
And we'll never step down

Our time is now, Our time is now, Yeah

It's the same old story
I've seen it all too many times
It's the fall from glory
That makes you feel

Place your needle to the record, stab it down
It feels good to be the one to break the skin
So run with me now, look at me now
You're face down, tell yourself you're happy once again
Right now you need this more than anything
But it's never enough, it's never enough for you

And it's the same old story
I've seen it all too many times
It's the fall from glory
That makes you feel alive

And you know the hardest truth can flow like water now
Break down, the moment that it touches your mouth
So place your lips against the bottle, take it down
It feels good to lose control of everything
But I wasn't myself, I wasn't myself she said

And it's the same old story
I've seen it all too many times
It's the fall from glory
That makes you feel alive
And it's the same old story
I've seen it all too many times
But it's not what you wanted
Can anyone feel, can anyone see
Can anyone taste the poison that we need
That we need

Place your needle to the record, stab it down
It feels good to be the one to break the skin
So run with me now, look at me now
You're face down, this is what you wanted
This is what you wanted, this is what you wanted
And I know, but we've lost control
HERE WE GO

Yah can anyone feel, can anyone see, yeah
Can anyone taste the poison that we need
Yah can anyone feel, can anyone see, yeah
Can anyone taste the poison that we need
That we need, that we need, that we need
Yah that we need

We're all part of them
Of this thoughtless world
A generation bought and sold
Buy a reproduced stolen copy package
We've been taught to love
This robotic formula
Built to please ignorant minds uncultured masses
And we know
That our ears should failed us now

Stereo stereo tired bullshit dressed in gold
Withstand the youth
Find the pieces
Stereo stereo in the world that you've created
Follow the pieces

We're all bought and sold

Radio waves
They still transmit the same
Replica that which will stand this indecay
And as we resee
And open our eyes to this
Uniform and standard model being said
We consume
Well our hearts have failed us now

Stereo stereo tired bullshit dressed in gold
Withstand the youth
Find the pieces
Stereo stereo in the world that you've created
Follow the pieces

But do we know?

That we've all been bought and sold
Yeah, bought and sold
We've all been bought and sold
Yeah, bought and sold
We've all been sold
To a world that failed us

Stereo stereo tired bullshit dressed in gold
Withstand the youth
Find the pieces
Stereo stereo in the world that you've created
Follow the pieces

Stereo stereo tired bullshit dressed in gold
Withstand the youth
Find the pieces
Stereo stereo in the world that you've created
Follow the pieces

We're all bought and sold
We're all bought and sold
We've been bought

I never thought I'd see the day
That we honestly could say
We stand five against the world
And the doors are open
Through all those years
I would've died to be right here
I never thought of backing down
With one chance to make a sound

So we'll take our chance right now

These are the days we will remember
These are the days we will remember
And these are the days we won't forget
These are the days we won't forget
These are the times we've shared
These are the promises we've made
These are the days

Revolution dead and gone
Still integrity holds strong
We stand five against the odds
And rise through it all
Relentless form and dedication carried on
We stand tall and won't back down
With one chance to make a sound
So we'll take our chance right now

These are the days we will remember
These are the days we will remember
And these are the days we won't forget
These are the days we won't forget
These are the times we've shared
These are the promises we've made
These are the days
That we won't forget

Yah we carry on convictions
Learning as we go
Living out the only life we know

These are the days we will remember
These are the days we will remember
And these are the days we won't forget
These are the days we won't forget
These are the times we've shared
These are the promises we've made
These are the days

WE WON'T FORGET
WE WON'T FORGET
WE WON'T FORGET

A million miles an hour
We swallow dotted lines tonight
And we ingest the pavement
Ignore the passing lights
And the streets they call our names
They call our names
We'll never feel the same

Tearing through this ghost town
We haunt the lifeless streets
Still it seems they call our names
They call our names
We'll never feel the same

Tonight will pass us by
As we're breathing in this moonlit air
Tonight will pass us by
As the world it seems to disappear
But I'm asleep at the wheel

Another destination far away from here
Where the streets they call our names
They call our names
We'll never feel the same again

But tonight will pass us by
As we're breathing in this moonlit air
Tonight will pass us by
As the world it seems to disappear
But I'm here with you
We will drive forever, we will drive forever
I'm here with you

But now I'm asleep at the wheel
And still the streets they call our names
They call our names, they call our names

But tonight will pass us by
As we're breathing in this moonlit air
Tonight will pass us by
As the world it seems to disappear
But I'm here with you
We will drive forever, we will drive forever
I'm here with you
We will drive forever, we will drive forever
We will drive forever, we will drive forever
We will drive forever, we will drive forever
I'm here with you
With you, with you, with you
I'm here with you

Yeah
Drop the tfk

Fuck the jailbait
And drop the waterway
Fall asleep so cover itself lets go
Rock the dance floor

Throw the punch man get what you paid for
Trust the kid like a spiral of a football throw

Yeah

And we know
We know
Your thrwoing punches to prove yourself
And it's all
For show
But your not impressing me
Yeah this life was built on heart and soul
And it doesn't mean a thing to you
But it's all we know
It's all we know
It's all we know
It's all we know
But it's all we know

Yeah, go
Whats the game plan?

Help the fight for and check degression
Throw the punchline to this without a choke

But we know
We know
Your throwing punches to prove yourself
And it's all
For show
But your not impressing me
Yeah this life was built on heart and soul
And it doesn't mean a thing to you
But it's all we know
It's all we know
It's all we know
It's all we know
But it's all we know

But it's all we know
But it's all we know

You tell yourself that your not the same
As you stand in line
Your time will all be wasted
Scum of the earth
Blind lead the dead
Blood thirsty selfish cold to reject
The colorful and brightest skies

So take these words for what they are
That's what you said what you said
So take these words for what they are
That's what you said what you said

Yeah

Deny the chance to think for yourself
You inherit lives
Your time has all been wasted
Follow tradition to quench your thirst
And swallow profits from excess dirt
So shut you queer and face the skies

So take these words for what they are
Thats what you said what you said
So take these words for what they are
Thats what you said what you said

Yeah
Your already dead
Your already dead
Your already dead
Your already dead

So now you stand in line
Embrace your leaders
Stand in line
These aren't their words
Stand in line
Embrace your leaders
These aren't their words
Refuse to learn
And choke on their tradition
Are you gunna take your turn and just stand in line?

So take these words for what they are
That's what you said what you said
So take these words for what they are
That's what you said what you said

Yeah

Your denial
Will lead you single file into the ground
Your already dead
Your already dead
Your already dead
Your already dead
Your dead

Your face
Was never missed
You cleverness
And cunning words did not exist
Bitter bleak
Your fuckin weak
You know you dont deserve a thing
You fight for pride
To save your name
To heal the scars you waste to shame
Take the blame
Take the blame
Save it now so this can end
Cause there's nothing left to prove
To you

You've become the enemy
Let it go
Whoa, whoa
But you'll never take the blame
So let it go
Whoa, whoa

I'll tear it down
Arrogant
Sick of it
Flatter everyone you can
I'm pulling teeth
Cause talk is cheap
You lie regrets are elbow deep
So now its time
To chase the dream
With hand grenades and gasoline
Burn it down
Burn it down
Every gracious word you speak
Cause now I see right through
So fuck you

You've become the enemy
Let it go
Whoa, whoa
But you'll never take the blame
So let it go
Whoa, whoa

The time has come you know
To just let go
Just let it all go
And its not enough
That your handed everything
Still you smile to my face
But this time
I'll tear it down
I'll tear it down
And I'll tear it down
Cause there nothing left to prove
To you

You've become the enemy
Let it go
Whoa, whoa
But you'll never take the blame
So let it go
Whoa, whoa, whoa
You are your own worst enemy we know
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

I've swallowed every hook
Fallen for their disguise
Lived by the book
Felt the blade of the knife
As it pressed against my neck
We're taught to imitate
Segragate and divide
Do what we're told
Rise and fall with the time
If we refuse to play the part
Then they will hear us screamin

Wake up the voiceless
Wake up the revolution
Whoa
We are alive tonight
Wake up the voiceless
Wake up the revolution
We are alive tonight

They advertise your life
Through a blanket of lies
Expand the truth
So their profits will rise
Ignore the sacrifice
Wires cast in stones
At the gods that create
We're amplified
To provide what they take
If we refuse to play the role
They will hear us screamin

Wake up the voiceless
Wake up the revolution
Whoa
We are alive tonight
Wake up the voiceless
Wake up the revolution
We are alive tonight

Go

There's a reason for defiance
We can't ignore
With the promise of a new day
This is a war
The blood will spill
The voices will be heard
And tonight
We are alive

I swallowed every hook
Falling for their disguise
Lived by the book
Felt the blade of the knife
But I refuse to play the role
And they will hear me screamin

Wake up the voiceless
Wake up the revolution
Whoa
We are alive tonight
Wake up the voiceless
Wake up the revolution
We are alive tonight
Wake up the voiceless
Wake up the revolution
Whoa
We are alive tonight
Wake up the voiceless
Wake up the revolution
We are alive tonight
Whoa
We are alive tonight
Whoa
We are alive tonight
We are alive tonight
We are alive tonight
We are alive tonight
We are alive tonight

Do you really fucking think
that it's a choice, a way of life
played by discrimination
you're narrow-minded, quick to judge
with bible belt tunnel vision

This is ignorance
failure to evolve
is failure to us all
when will you learn
that this is where we fall
failure to evolve
is failure to us all
when will you learn
that this is where we fall
where we fall

"Is this my fate!?" he asked them
they answered, condemning him to burn
rejected, forsaken, for being fucking born
I can't believe that this is still a question
that needs an answer
a bigot's eyes judging lives
based on the sex of who you fuck

This is ignorance
failure to evolve
is failure to us all
when will you learn
that this is where we fall
failure to evolve
is failure to us all
when will you learn
that is where we fall
where we fall

Burn (burn), burn (burn)
judged and condemned to
burn (burn), burn (burn)
judged and condemned to burn

When will you learn?
will you learn?
when will you learn?

It's a silent murder
It's a grave that sings your song
It's a quite failure
It's the one that makes you strong

We are heading down a long empty road
We pass lost souls blinded by the cold

Watch the fire burn out
Watch the curtains slowly close
Waiting on the final words your heart already knows

We are heading down a long empty road
We pass lost souls blinded by the cold
By the cold

It's a silent murder
It's a grave that sings your song
