Lyrics

1. FAST FORWARD TO 2012

We welcome you to the second chapter
Thanks for turning the other page
We acknowledge you as the only reason
For the progress that we've made
You're a constant reminder
We came, we saw, we conquered
Everything has come so far
From where we were before
Well keep this short and sweet so i'll
Get to the point

My friends come first it's the bottom line (x4)

That's the bottom line
Here's to the future, never getting older
When the tables do turn, where will you be?

Pick up your feet


2. SPEAK OF THE DEVIL

This is my vengeance for all the wrongs
You've formed against us
You always get me wrong
My whole existence revolves around the progress that we've made
I'll never be walked on again

I'm on the edge of the rooftop
Thinking nobody will ever know
I hope that you'd want to be the one to see
The distance from the road

This is our triumph over all the forms of filth you've spread
Well never let this go
Right from the very start i knew this day would come
Tonights the night we silence you
There's nowhere left to run

Let this be your reminder
I'm everything that you wanted to be
Hope for the best but it's over
And you thought you were better than me

Such a pretty picture
Your chalk line on the ground
I hope you die


3. THE DANGER IN STARTING A FIRE

So now you'll know exactly what it feels like
To be an obstacle in my way
You won't remain
You won't remain

Save your breath don't even speak
If you'll speak of change
Cause you wont
You won't
Cut to the chase
Spare the lecture on what it takes to make a man
Cause you're weak and i'm strong

I will never falter
I'll stand my ground
You're a fake, a worthless coward
You'll life wont mean anything

Lets set things straight
What's done is done
I never needed you
Tell me exactly who you think that you're kidding ?
Everyone will be happy when they find that you're missing
You asked if we'd ever forget you
We've got our fingers crossed
Our fingers crossed

That's the danger in starting a fire
You'll never know how many bridges you'll burn


4. THE PLOT TO BOMB THE PANHANDLE

I've learned to let go
Come on

Here's a middle finger
Coming straight from oca-l-a
I appreciate your judgement
It's proved that i can't trust a word you say
Those must be some pair of binoculars
That you see every move i make
So i'll never be a liar
But you'll always be two-faced

You'll get what's coming to you
You're blinded by your instincts
I'm not your fucking game
I'm not so easily beat

I'm looking down at this mess that you've made
And i can't believe that i stayed
So unhappy for so long
Where did i go wrong?
I've got to get out of this
My hand is on the handle
We're leaving everything behind
Goodbye for a lifetime

I'll rip that scandalous bitch in two
We'll bring the noise

Try to pretend that i never even knew your name
'Cause everything you are disgusts me
(too bad i can't turn back time)
So i wouldn't be here
What i'd give for you to disappear
So tell me girly how's your edge ?

You've got nothing better to do
I know why you can't see straight
I thought you were better than this
But you're just like everyone else

I'm looking down at this mess that you've made
And i can't believe that i stayed
So unhappy for so long
Where did i go wrong ?
I've got to get out of this
My hand is on the handle
We're leaving everything behind
Goodbye for a lifetime

I'll make my stand
Right here with my friends (x5)

Get low
Now i know who my friends are
I'm never coming home


5. MONUMENT

It's monday morning
And i would kill for a chance to drive
Get so far away from here with you my dear
That i'll never leave your side
Nobody knows the troubles i've seen
In a van, on a soapbox for the world to see

Miles away, and i wish this didn't mean so much to me
To be a monument for the rest of them
Miles away, and i wish this didn't mean so much to me
To be a monument for the rest of them

We're getting older
I've started to fear for my life
Is this the way that it should be ?
This whole thing's riding on me
It's been a long road so far
With nowhere to turn
There's no looking back from here
No more dwelling on my fears

Miles away, and i wish this didn't mean so much to me
To be a monument for the rest of them
Miles away, and i wish this didn't mean so much to me
To be a monument for the rest of them

Twenty bucks says you'll remember me
When you see me on your tv screen
It may be the first time
But it won't be the last time
(x3)

And i'll scream
So loud that everyone in this place
Will hear every word i say
'Cause this is my time, this is my time to shine
Let nothing stand in our way
(x2)

Twenty bucks says you'll remember me
When you see me on your tv screen
It may be the first time
But it won't be the last time


6. THE PRICE WE PAY

Days rolled on
Shout it out loud
Days rolled on
We know the price we pay
Days rolled on
Shout it out loud
Days rolled on
We know the price we pay
Days rolled on
Shout it out loud
Days rolled on
We know the price we pay
Days rolled on
Shout it out loud
Days rolled on
We know the price we pay
Days rolled on
Shout it out loud
Days rolled on
We know the price we pay


7. COLDER THAN MY HEART IF YOU CAN IMAGINE

Don't point your finger baby
This isn't the best time for you to test me
"Now the message isn't for anyone here" she said
It wasn't you or anyone i would lie for
Tell me, who would you lie for ?

Let's leave the light
I'm still singing "whoa"
(Whoaa)
Don't say you won't let it go
'Cause you'll never know
(You'll never know)
I'm still singing "whoa"
(Whoaa)
Don't say you won't let it go
'Cause you'll never know

Don't be so quick to blame a friend
When the smoke is cleared, there will be nobody left
"Don't be so sure of yourself" he said
If this was me, you would never know your name
(Never know your name)
Heart means everything

Let's leave the light
I'm still singing "whoa"
(Whoaa)
Don't say you won't let it go
'Cause you'll never know
(You'll never know)
I'm still singing "whoa"
(Whoaa)
Don't say you won't let it go
'Cause you'll never know

Don't ride with me, your faith
Don't ride with me, your faith

From the top of the world
We'll let them know
That your biggest fear is letting go
From the top of the world
We'll let them know
That your biggest fear is letting go

I'm still singing "whoa"
Don't say you won't let it go
'Cause you'll never know
(You'll never know)
I'm still singing "whoa"
(Whoaa)
Don't say you won't let it go
'Cause you'll never know


8. SHOW 'EM THE ROPES

Just hold your breath
To make sure you wont wake up again
Cause you ruined my 04
That's the best that i could hope for
To watch you fall apart from the inside
We're gonna spread it to the world
To the world
About how you lied
How you lied

A free lesson on growing up
Never trust anyone to the point
Where your backs exposed
Every person i've ever known was a fake
And you'll see your closest ones go first
Who needs enemies you've got friends

I'm a gentleman and you're a liar
I expect the best of you but it's so hard
But it's so hard

Lets start over
When we reach the top well watch you bury yourself
This wasn't easy
It wasn't easy

A free lesson on growing up
Make the best of their worst
And never compromise what you feel is right
I make a point to be powerful when i speak
Be the one that gives them nightmares when they sleep
Never back down from anyone

I watched the weight of your world
Cave in to crush you


9. A SHOT IN THE DARK

Lets take them back to the days
When we were family
My breath was your breath when we were young
I think it's funny how the times have changed
Throw being jealous in the mix
And now all i know of you is a name
Couldn't have came at a better time
This ends right now

We gave all of ourselves
To entertain you
Were only hurting us (ourselves)

I'm a god amongst the ants and your girlfriends
And you act like you don't even know
It's cause you haven't been here for too long
I called this right from the start
I turn my back for one second now all i hear is a shot in the dark
Use my name like you know me
You're all the same

Keep running your mouth

Mark my words were taking over the world


10. HERE'S TO THE PAST

Here's to the past

Let's all think back on what brought us here
This is my grasp on what is real
Don't tell me how i feel
With all that's passed i can't relate
With myself from day to day
Why does everything seem so far away
To me

There's no turning back from here
I've got to get away from everyone who's left
Everyone who's left
I'll tell the saddest story
Of how we made it through this past year
(past year, past year...)
I'll tell the saddest story
Of how we made it through this past year
(past year, past year...)
They said we'd walk away
You'll never make it if you can't speak for yourself
They said we'd fade away

We've all been down this path before
You're trapped in this town
And it wears you down
When we leave today then maybe you'll understand
This constant struggle isn't always in the palm of our hand

There's no turning back from here
I've got to get away from everyone who's left
Everyone who's left
I'll tell the saddest story
Of how we made it through this past year
(past year, past year...)
I'll tell the saddest story
Of how we made it through this past year
(past year, past year...)
They said we'd walk away
You'll never make it if you can't speak for yourself
They said we'd fade away

This man will stand the test of time (x4)

I'll tell the saddest story
Of how we made it through this past year
(Past year, past year...)
I'll tell the saddest story
Of how we made it through this past year
(Past year, past year...)
They said we'd walk away
You'll never make it if you can't speak for yourself
They said we'd fade away


11. I HEARD IT'S THE SOFTEST THING EVER

Tonight i'm sending you a message
This is the end of an era
The end of second chances
In the face of defeat
I'm winning
Yet you still have so much left to say

Oh they're coming straight for me
Oh they're coming straight for me

Read between the lines
We can't give in this time
Just let me go for now i'll be just fine
Don't ya know don't ya know
Now that i'm back on my own

Tell me how it feels
To watch the walls of your security crumble
I remember you
You took the easy way out when i gave you something to stand for

I was just another promise you couldn't keep


12. START THE SHOOTING

Hey boys, look where we are
This town ain't big enough for the both of us
So get ready to run
This all goes to show
Just how little you really know
About the way that we are

I notice everything
Like every single rumor
That you spread today
You're never gonna change
Let's set this record straight
I know all your dirty secrets
That you kept from me
This conversation's over

Watch your step
(Watch your step)
This town can chew you up
And spit you out
So pardon me but you shouldn't be so proud
Watch your step
(Watch your step)
This town can chew you up
And spit you out
So pardon me but you shouldn't be so proud

You're all the same
You think that everyone around you cares about what you think
No one knows your name
It's about that time
Take everyone you know and get as far across my states line
As you possibly can

I notice everything
Like every single rumor
That you spread today
You're never gonna change
Let's set this record straight
I know all your dirty secrets
That you kept from me
This conversation's over

Watch your step
(Watch your step)
This town can chew you up
And spit you out
So pardon me but you shouldn't be so proud
Watch your step
(Watch your step)
This town can chew you up
And spit you out
So pardon me but you shouldn't be so proud

Will they miss me when i'm gone ?
Will this time be for too long ?
Wait till then
And see if time brings change
Will they miss me when i'm gone ?
Will this time be for too long?
Wait till then
And see if time brings change

(Watch your step)
This town can chew you up
And spit you out
So pardon me but you shouldn't be so proud
Watch your step
(Watch your step)
This town can chew you up
And spit you out
So pardon me but you shouldn't be so proud
Watch your step
(Watch your step)
This town can chew you up
And spit you out
So pardon me but you shouldn't be so proud
Watch your step
(Watch your step)
This town can chew you up
And spit you out
So pardon me but you shouldn't be so proud

(Watch your step)
So pardon me but you shouldn't be so proud
(Watch your step)
So pardon me but you shouldn't be so proud
(Watch your step)
(Watch your step)
(Watch your step)


13. HEARTLESS

For once my eyes are open to you, and everything you've said.
For once your web of lies is in the open.
I gave you everything i had, until i had nothing left.
Still you act as if i'm just a burden.
I've finally let go. Let go, let go.

Stay silent at least for now, and let me move on.
'Cause i'm so done playing these games with my heart
I've been around the world and back for you, and now its time to choose.

I've been swallowed by this wreck that you call your life.
I'm damaged from the inside. I've been broken.
Don't threaten me with what you think i feel.
If you could read my mind you'd be in tears.

I'm sick of your excuses you hold above me.
I've finally come to terms with what i am.
I'm nothing in your eyes, and this will not change.
I'm living in a dream.

Stay silent at least for now, and let me move on.
'Cause i'm so done playing these games with my heart
I've been around the world and back for you, and now its time to choose.

And i'll close my eyes, and dream of a better time
When i'll be finally past this and i'll be happy on my own.
I've done all i can, and i've still been cast aside.
All i ever wanted to be was be the one who would wipe tears from your eyes.
But i guess i'll play second best, to a world that will never care about you.
You'll never understand you're just another pretty face
You'll tell me that you care, and then run straight back to him.
I can hear your voice of treason from a mile away.

You never did know how to whisper.

You're such a liar. Tell me the truth.
You're such a liar. Tell me the truth.
You fucking liar. Tell me the truth.
Do the world a favor, stop cutting your arms, and slit your throat


14. YOU SHOULD HAVE KILLED ME WHEN YOU HAD THE CHANCE

So i say goodbye to a town that has ears and eyes
I can hear you whispering as i walk by
Familiar faces smiling back at me and i knew
This would make them change

The only thing that's going to bother me
Is that you'll all call yourselves my friends

Why can't you look me in the eyes one last time ?

The writings on the wall, you've read that i'll be gone, but if you call my name
Just know that i'll come running, for one more night to spare with you
This is where i'm meant to be, please don't leave me

I've read these stories a thousand times, and now i'll rewrite them all
You're meddling in an anger you can't control
She means the world to me, so hold your serpent tongue
Is a whores lies worth dying for? I'll just take my time

The only thing that's going to bother me
Is that you'll all call yourselves my friends

Why cant you look me in the eyes one last time ?

The writings on the wall, you've read that i'll be gone, but if you call my name
Just know that i'll come running, for one more night to spare with you
This is where i'm meant to be, please don't leave me

I walked into your house this morning
I brought the gun from our end table
Your blood was strewn across the walls
They'll find you on your bathroom floor when i'm done
But should i write it all off ?

You should have killed me when you had the chance


15. SINCE U BEEN GONE (KELLY CLARKSON COVER)

Here's the thing we started out friends
It was cool but it was all pretend
Yeah yeah
Since u been gone

You dedicated you took the time
Wasn't long till i called you mine
Yeah yeah
Since u been gone

And all you'd ever hear me say
Is how i pictured me with you
That's all you'd ever hear me say

But since u been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you
Now i get
What i want
Since u been gone

How can i put it ? You put me on
I even fell for that stupid love song
Yeah, yeah
Since u been gone

How come i'd never hear you say
I just wanna be with you
I guess you never felt that way

But since u been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you
Now i get (i get) what i want
Since u been gone

You had your chance you blew it
Out of sight, out of mind
Shut your mouth i just can't take it
Again and again and again and again

Since u been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now i get, i get what i want
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now i get (i get)
You should know (you should know)
That i get, i get what i want
Since u been gone
Since u been gone
Since u been gone


16. WHY WALK ON WATER, WHEN WE'VE GOT BOATS

Watch what you say on the stand. You're running in circles.
I know more than you think and your words are empty.
Of all the heavenly host's!
This will all make sense when the records gold.
What's a few more units for your soul ?

You're waisting my time,
While there waisting away.
You'll never, you'll never save me.
You've dropped every line,
But they don't mean a thing.
You'll never, you'll never save me.

You live your life in the saddest way i've ever seen.
You are the reason i don't believe.
I'm not denying the worth of things unseen,
And this isn't a part of the next big thing.
I'm just dying to show them all that you are.
You are nothing.
