Rewind! Captain, throw it into reverse!
Silhouettes are taking shape
This is not what I signed up for
This is not what I signed up for
I can see it now, your picture on the front page
You're quite a legend here in your own mind
Too bad those skills won't help in the real world
Too bad those skills won't help in the real world
We do things by the book here son
Bad judgment, could be treason
We do things by the book here son
We do things by the book here son
Stop your watch
I'm sorry you can't get out of this
Turn back the clock
I'm sorry you can't get out of this
Why?
Oh god, tell me why?
I'm sorry you can't get out of this
It's not something an apology will cover
I'm sorry you can't get out of this
I never thought I'd be the one to say
I'm sorry you can't get out of this
Don't say the words (Don't say the words)
I'm sorry
My most sincere apologies but
But bad judgement tends to be...

Word To The Wise

There's no signs of life
(Have you got the remedy?)
Drown those sorrows on the ocean floor
(Have you got the remedy?)
Mama's boy
Strong and proud
You've got your chance to prove yourself
Time will tell
They're counting on you
You've got your chance to prove yourself
Under clouds and open sea
This mutiny will end with you
I can't see straight, my lung start to swell
Don't worry kid, that happens down here
Ending your dreams is the only way
For me to stop this nightmare
I can read you like an open book
But I how was I supposed to know?
Your fucking plague (your fucking plague)
Has corrupted (this city)
Its left the living (left the living)
Blank and emotionless
Turned them into (turned them into)
Empty vessels, waiting to die
Your plague (your fucking plague)
Has corrupted (this city)
Its left the living (left the living)
Blank and emotionless

Swallowing secrets meant for two
That color suits you dear
You're a sight for sore eyes
Whisper, I'll follow anywhere
Your taste still stagnant on my lips
Oh that condescending stare...
Inhale
Exhale
The time has come to spread your light
On the shadowed hearts and minds
Such an innocent rouse on the weak
Someone has poisoned the town's water!
A round of applause for the man dressed in black
He's got your number, so wait in line!
A round of applause for the man dressed in black
Please be patient, you're up next!
The night falls!
It came crashing to my feet
The stars cry!
A cosmic mess in my hands
The night falls!
An ocean of emptiness
The stars cry!
And its stained your dress!
Its stained your dress!
Keep you're eye on the prize
The unfortunate girl weeps bitter tears

This Year Will Be Ours

Lets race for the sun
(We'll race for the sun)
And watch this city get consumed by their pride
(Consumed by their pride)
Your carbon kiss, it traced my lips
(Your kiss traced my)
They've lit our path
Look how it shines!
All we ask for is the chance to prove you wrong
Was this what you wanted me to see?
We watched this city
Tear itself apart
And it looks so beautiful
From where we lie
We watched this city
Tear itself apart
And It looks so graceful
From where we rest
Its dawned on man
That actions speak
Louder than words
(Louder than words)
Its blinding me
Such sheer radiance!
Keep your voice down
You'll blow our cover!
Sifting through ashes
You'll never get it back
This is my birth right
This is my birth right!
Tear itself apart
I wipe the blood from my eyes
We brought this upon ourselves!
We need to evacuate
(We need to evacuate)
You can stick around
For the show
It's every man for himself
(I saw that look in your eyes)
It's every man for himself
(I saw that look in your eyes)
It's every man for himself
(I saw that look in your eyes)
It's every man for himself
(It's every man)
It's every man
(It's every man)
It's every man
(It's every man)
It's every man
(It's every man)

Transmission failing
Boost the signal!
I think you're getting
The big picture
Your television eyes
Cut through my broadcast
Flips through dials
And tune me out
I saw the king drown himself in the lake
Setting such a good example for the masses
No room to breathe
Release and fade into nothingness
You cling to me
Like static on your television set
I've seen this episode before
The hero dies at the end

On the Contrary...

Dry your eyes little one
You're safe now that you're home
You put the fear in the hearts of men
And I didn't recognize you in that skin
......Traitor
This is the fever you just can't shake
This is the the aching in your bones
This is the smell of fear in your sweat
This is the taste of sex on your breath
All dolled up and nowhere to go
You've mistook my words
I'll tell you what you want to hear
Sell myself to you, sell yourself to me
Tonight's a secret between us and bedsheets
Tear the fabric of time and watch
The universe collapse on itself
The sun explodes
You left me blind from you radiance
I can still taste you on my lips
Sing for me, scream my name
All dolled up and nowhere to go
He got what he came for
A mistress is something between
A master and a mattress
We prey on the weak
Sing for me
Scream my name
