You can’t talk
I’m anxious
I’m off the walls
I’m right here just
Come outside
And see it
But pack your heart
You might need itI’ll find a way
I’ll confuse them
But I think I can try
I will save your life
I will save your life
I’ll try for youYou’re locked up
You exhaled
You did it before
I seen it
Come outside
And breathe in
Relax your arms
And let me inI’ll find a way
I’ll confuse them
But I think I can try
I will save your life
I will save your life
I’ll try for youI know what to say to take you
Higher, higher
No one else can take you higher
But I will tryI’ll find a way
I’ll confuse them
But I think I can try
I will save your life
I will save your life
I’ll tryI’ll find a way
I’ll confuse them
But I think I can try
I will save your life
I will save your life
I’ll try for youFor you

There’s a power much bigger than hate
Still lost in the urge to annihilate
But I know I will overcome this
You dragged me through the darkest days
By the skin of my teeth you restored my fate
And I raised myself out of the ashesNow I’m alive in new light
I’m alive in new light
Now I’m alive in new light
I am alive in new lightI was carrying the weight of the universe
The typical brittle perfectionist
Confused by my every decision
One day I was being the hero
The next I was playing the coward
Burnt out by my overreactionNow I’m alive in new light
I’m alive in new light
Now I’m alive in new light
I am alive in new lightThere were times when I thought that my heart would stop
Running for a bleak horizon
Locked in my obsessions
And now I am the raindrop
I am the tulip
I have learned compassionNow I’m alive in new light
I’m alive in new light
Now I’m alive in new light
I am alive -
Mercy – well I melt in the kiss by the words
And the whispers you sing me
Mercy – I’m frail in the kill by submission
And will that you bring me
Mercy – when I’m nothing but ego
You slap me to let go and sleep free
Now I sleep freeYou’re my toy box and my memories
When I smell your skin you just make my whole world weep
I’m at your feetMercy – when the gray turns to black
And the wave’s on my back, you make me smile
Mercy – it’s the trauma and martyr
You crush into pleasure and downtime
Mercy – it’s the shining of you
That just breaks me in two like a lifeline
You’re my lifelineI’m the idiot to your poetry
When you burn and bleach
Everything and all I need
Is at your feetMercy – are the licks and the lips of temptation
Just tricks, not for playing?
Mercy – are you the camera suck
Gun slut to headphone fuck holes in my being?
Mercy – are you everything
Which put the sex into bitch or just faking?
Do you fake it?So I celebrate your chemistry
If you bond with me
I could make your whole world sweet
I’m on my knees, on my kneesOn my knees, on my knees
On my knees, on my kneesBlack suit and tie
You’re looking nice under candlelight
Sweet as summertime
Red lips, white wine
Spilling your secrets, I won’t tell you mine
Baby, we’ve got all nightCome a little closer
Won’t you let me
Get to know you better?‘Cause I could breathe you in and never breathe you out
Hold you ’til I’m something you can’t live without
I’ll whisper in the wind, leave a chill on your skin
Forgetting me is useless
My love’s so ruthless
My love’s so ruthlessSoft words, slow moves
My hand brushes yours for a moment or two
But it’s enough to let my love seep into youCome a little closer
Won’t you let me
Wrap around you gently?‘Cause I could breathe you in and never breathe you out
Hold you ’til I’m something you can’t live without
I’ll whisper in the wind, leave a chill on your skin
Forgetting me is useless
My love’s so ruthless
My love’s so ruthless
My love’s so-Follow footsteps up the stairs
Down the hall, I’ll meet you there
Tell me you’ll go anywhere
Anywhere I want you
My love’s so ruthless -
strange bedfellows

to the edge of my mind
and checking you outlet’s go

of opinion sometimes
and you got to

A friend is more than a companion
A foe is less than that to me
When you hear the words
The words you long to hear
Open upThe guidance from a close and loved one
Is more important than you think
When your arms are closed
Then open with a key
Secret keyClashed hands shaking in the closet
Hands down, you will have to see
Past lives forgotten and remembered
Act now
When I don’t know where to goEverything that you say to your closest one
Makes you feel like a pain toward everyone
When the words are unkind, you’ll regret the choice
For as long as you choose, there may be rejoice
In the colour of day when you see the truth
Take a step to the front, to the brunt of youth
Understand what they mean when they say the words
When sorry is said, feel it to your bonesAmends is made with a connection
A lonely man becomes a king
When you need the words
The words you long to feel
Listen upThe triumph of a close and loved one
The journey to the golden throne
When the gown is graced
Proceed towards the stage
Golden stageClashed hands shaking in the closet
Hands down, you will have to see
Past plans, verbatim and forgotten
Act now
When I don’t know where to goEverything that you say to your closest one
Makes you feel like a pain toward everyone
When the words are unkind, you’ll regret the choice
For as long as you choose there may be rejoice
In the colour of day, when you see the truth
Take a step to the front to the brunt of youth
Understand what they mean when they say the words
When sorry is said, feel it to your bones -
Faithful
Nobody is faithful
Picking up the weakest
Watching every move
Madman
Everyone‘s a badman
Feeding on the leanest
With everything to lose.
Reach out before you drown
The world is turning upside down
And you know
You‘ve got to kill your darlings
Breathe in the hurricane
And we can start all over again
And you know
You‘ve got to kill your darlings
Idle
Could be suicidal
Picking up the pieces
Stitching up the wounds
Faithless
Everybody‘s faithless
The legions of faceless
Are tearing up the rules
Reach out before you drown
The world is turning upside down
And you know
You‘ve got to kill your darlings
Breathe in the hurricane
And we can start all over again
And you know
You‘ve got to kill your darlings
You can‘t beat them –
you‘ll have to join them
Wake up and look around
Your house is burning to the ground
And you know you have to kill your darlings
And you‘ll do whatever it takes
And you‘ll do whatever it takes
Reach out before you drown
The world is turning upside down
And you know
You‘ve got to kill your darlings
Breathe in the hurricane
And we can start all over again
And you know
You‘ve got to kill your darlings
And you‘ll do whatever it takes -
Perfect little dream, the kind that hurts the most
Forgot how it feels, well almost
No one to blame, always the same
Open my eyes, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up in flamesIt took you to make me realize
It took you to make me realize
It took you to make me realize
It took you to make me see the lightSmashed up my sanity
Smashed up integrity
Smashed up what I believed in
Smashed up what’s left of me
Smashed up my everything
Smashed up all that was true
Gonna smash myself to pieces
I don’t know what else to doCovered in hope and Vaseline
Still cannot fix this broken machine
Watching the hole, it used to be mine
Just watching it burn in my steady systematic decline
Of the trust I will betray
Give it to me, I throw it away
After everything I’ve done I hate myself for what I’ve becomeIt took you to make me realize
It took you to make me realize
It took you to make me realize
It took you to make me see the lightSmashed up my sanity
Smashed up integrity
Smashed up what I believed in
Smashed up what’s left of me
Smashed up my everything
Smashed up all that was true
Gonna smash myself to pieces
I don’t know what else to doI tried
I gave up
I tried
I gave up
I tried
I gave up
I tried
I gave up
I tried
I gave up
I tried
I gave up
I tried
I gave up
I tried
I gave upSmashed up my sanity
Smashed up integrity
Smashed up what I believed in
Smashed up what’s left of me
Smashed up my everything
Smashed up all that was true
Gonna smash myself to pieces
I don’t know what else to do
(Throw it away)
Smashed up my sanity
Smashed up integrity
(Throw it away)
Smashed up what I believed in
Smashed up what’s left of me
(Throw it away)
Smashed up my everything

Just for a moment
You show me your inner light
Your inner light
And when your heart opens
You show me your inner light
Your inner lightAnd when your heart opens
You show me your inner light
Your inner lightJust for a moment
You show me your inner light
Your inner light
And when your heart opens
You show me your inner light
Your inner lightAnd when your heart opens
You show me your inner light
Your inner lightJust for a moment
You show me your inner light
Your inner light -
They walk the lines
I tear them openThey move in perfect circles
Polish mass and quiet lines
I’ll undo their perfection
Just to watch them vaporizeThey humble for acceptance
Pay for names and cold applause
I stay feral in the shadows
Tearing holes through all their lawsI don’t fit their little boxes
Don’t respond to trained command
There’s no ribbon on my spirit
There’s no leash around these handsEvery time they try to tame me
I just turn more iron-willed
I’m a fire they can’t smother
I’m a voice they couldn’t stillThey march in rhythm chasing higher praise
I run my own beat through the smoking blazeI’m a savage in a civilized world
Unashamed, uncontained, undeterred
I don’t fit the script
Don’t play their game
My soul wasn’t built to kneel and obeyI’m a savage in a civilized world
Let them bleed
Let them beg to belong
I don’t bow, don’t lie, don’t conformI’m a savage in a civilized world
They lace their dreams in cages
Call their caution something wise
But I found truth in chaos
Where the hunting spirit liesTheir hands are tied in comfort
Mine are hooked in my own grip
They speak about the path I take
The path I burned through itThey need a world that likes ’em
I just need a world of taste
They need shelter from the storm
I treat the storm like a kind of kissDon’t invite me to your kingdom
I’ll just rip apart the dome
My religion is defiance
My allegiance is my ownThey march in rhythm chasing higher praise
I run my own beat through the smoking blazeI’m a savage in a civilized world
Unashamed, uncontained, undeterred
I don’t fit the script
Don’t play their game
My soul wasn’t built to kneel and obeyI’m a savage in a civilized world
Let them bleed
Let them beg to belong
I don’t bow, don’t lie, don’t performI’m a savage in a civilized world
Give me coffins
Give me stones
Give me crowns
Give me thornsLet them chase a flawless reign
I was built to break the chainI’m a savage in a civilized world
Untamed, unafraid, uncontrolled
I’ve done marks around (?)
Don’t wear them on my paws
This is why my blood runs boldI’m a savage in a civilized world
Let them kneel to the norm they serve
I don’t blend, don’t bend,
Don’t perform under storm
That we’re warned about since birthI’m a savage in a civilized world
I’m a savage in a civilized world
Uncontained, unrestrained, undeterred
Let them walk in line bowing to the norm
I was built for the wild
Not built to performI’m a savage in a civilized world
I don’t chase, don’t kill
Don’t learn to conform
I don’t blend, don’t beg
Don’t deserve their cause (?)
I’m a savage in a civilized world***not the official lyrics, this is my own transcription, apologies for any misheard lyrics

What seems to be your big problem with me am I so bad?
The more you say you change, the more you stay the same
You’re always mad because I color outside the lines
It’s not wasted time to color outside the lines
It’s not wasted time
What seems to be this big problem with me I’ve been so sad
I even took the time to explain it all a thousand times
But the more I tried to explain, the more it caused me pain
So I gathered up my friends and we colored outside the lines
It’s not wasted time to color outside the lines
So when we walk away
We’ll hang our pictures on the wall you put in front of me
But if we learn some logic and practice on our patience
I am absolutely certain that everything will change in time
It’s not wasted time to color outside the lines
It’s not wasted time
Dreams aren’t wasted time.
It’s not wasted time to color outside the lines
It’s not wasted time to color outside the lines
It’s not wasted time to color outside the lines
