All We Know
We've tried so hard to understand, but we can't.
We held the world out in our hands and you ran away.
It takes some time to let you go and it shows.
Cause all we know is falling, it falls.
Remember, cause i know that we won't forget at all.
Now we can follow you back home but we won't.
Is this what you had waited for? just to be alone?
It takes some time to let you go and it shows.
Cause all we know is falling, it falls.
Remember, cause i know that we won't forget at all.
You never, you never said
This wasn't what you wanted, was it? was it?
This isn't what you wanted.
This isn't what you wanted.
Cause all we know is falling, it falls.
Remember, cause i know that we won't forget at all.
Born For This
Oh no, i just keep on falling
(Back to the same old)
And where's hope, when Misery comes crawling?
(Oh my way, ay)
With your fate, you'll trigger a landslide
(Misery)
And kill off this common sense of mine
And it takes acquired minds
To taste, to taste, to taste this wine
You can't down it with your eyes
So we don't need the headlines
We don't need the headlines, we just want
Everybody sing
Like it's the last song you will ever sing
Tell me, tell me do you feel the pressure now?
Everybody live
Like it's the last day you will ever see
Tell me, tell me do you feel the pressure now?
Right now, you're the only reason
(I'm not letting go, oh)
And time out, if everyone's worth pleasing
(Well ha)
You'll trigger a landslide
(Misery)
To kill off the finite state of mind
And it takes acquired minds
To taste, to taste, to taste this wine
You can't down it with your eyes
So we don't meet the headlines
No, we don't want your headlines, we just want
Everybody sing
Like it's the last song you will ever sing
Tell me, tell me do you feel the pressure now?
Everybody live
Like it's the last day you will ever see
Tell me, tell me do you feel the pressure now?
Everybody sing
Like it's the last song you will ever sing
Tell me, tell me do you feel the pressure?
All right, so you think you're ready?
Okay, then you say this with me, go:
We were born for this
(We were born for this)
All right, so you think you're ready?
Okay, then you say this with me, go:
We were born for this
(We were born for this)
We were born for this
(We were born for this)
We were born for, we were born for
Everybody sing
Like it's the last song you will ever sing
Tell me, tell me can you feel the pressure?
Everybody live
Like it's the last day you will ever see
Tell me, tell me can you feel the pressure now?
Everybody sing
Like it's the last song you will ever sing
Tell me, tell me can you feel the pressure?
Tell me, tell me can you feel the pressure?
We were born for this
(We were born for this)
We were born for this
Circle
Take this time to realize
That you always shut your eyes
In the midst of trial
And everything is always right
And i think that it's time
This battle must be won
But you pushed it aside
Pushed it aside
Pretend that it's gone
This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over
This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over
Take this time to realize
That you always force a smile
In the midst of trial
And everything is always right
And i think that it's time
This battle must be won
But you pushed it aside
Pushed it aside
Pretend that it's gone
This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over
This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over
And it never ends
It never ends
And it never ends
And it never ends
No, it never ends
This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over
This circle never ends
And it's time you just face it, don't pretend
That it's over, it's over
Conspiray
Please speak softly, for they will hear us
And they'll find out why we don't trust them
Speak up dear cause i cannot hear you
I need to know why we don't trust them
Explain to me this conspiracy against me
And tell me how i've lost my power
Where can i turn? cause i need something more
Surrounded by uncertainty i'm so unsure
Tell me why i feel so alone
Cause i need to know to whom do i owe
Explain to me this conspiracy against me
And tell me how i've lost my power
I thought that we'd make it
Because you said that we'd make it through
And when all security fails
Will you be there to help me through?
Explain to me this conspiracy against me
And tell me how i've lost my power
I've lost my power
Crushcrushcrush

Scribbled out the truth with their lies
Your little spies
THey taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
Your little spies

Well come on, come on let's play
Cause i'd rather waste my life pretending
Than have to forget you for one whole minute

Decoy
Close your eyes and make believe this is where you want to be
Forgetting all the memories, try to forget love cause love's forgotten me
Well hey, hey baby, it's never too late pretty soon you won't remember a thing
And i'll be distant, the stars reminiscing
Your heart's been wasted on me
You've never been so used as i'm using you, abusing you
My little decoy
Don't look so blue, you should've seen right through
I'm using you, my little decoy
My little decoy
Live your life inside a dream
Time is changing everything
Forgetting all the memories
And i'm forced into you just cause you're into me
Well hey, hey baby, it's never too late
When i'm gone you won't remember a thing
But i can't stay and you know i won't wait
I was gone from the very first day
You've never been so used as i'm using you, abusing you
My little decoy
Don't look so blue, you should've seen right through
I'm using you, my little decoy
Oh, oh.
I'm not sorry at all
(Not sorry at all, not sorry. no.)
I won't be sorry at all
(Not sorry at all, not sorry. no.)
I'd do it over again
Don't look so blue, my little decoy
You should've seen right through, my little decoy
You've never been so used, my little decoy
And so i'm using you, my little decoy
Emergency
I think we have an emergency
I think we have an emergency
If you thought i'd leave, then you were wrong
Cause i won't stop holding on
So are you listening?
So are you watching me?
If you thought i'd leave, then you were wrong
Cause i won't stop holding on.
This is an emergency
So are you listening?
And i can't pretend that i don't see this
Well it's really not your fault
When no one cares to talk about it,
To talk about it
Cause i've seen love die
Way too many times
When it deserved to be Alive
I've seen you cry
Way too many times
When you deserve to be Alive
So you give up every chance you get
Just to feel new again
I think we have an emergency
I think we have an emergency
And you do your best to show me love,
But you don't know what love is.
So are you listening?
So are you watching me?
And i can't pretend that i don't see this
Well it's really not your fault
When no one cares to talk about it,
To talk about it
Cause i've seen love die
Way too many times
When it deserved to be Alive
I've seen you cry
Way too many times
When you deserve to be Alive (Alive)
These scars, they will not fade away.
No one cares to talk about it, talk about it
Cause i've seen love die
Way too many times
When it deserved to be Alive
I've seen you cry
Way too many times
When you deserve to be Alive (Alive)
Fences
I'm sitting in a room
Made up of only big white walls
And in the halls
There are people looking through
The window in the door
They know exactly what we're here for
Don't look up just let them think
There's no place else you'd rather be
You're always on display
For everyone to watch and learn from
Don't you know by now
You can't turn back
Because this road is all you'll ever have
And it's obvious that you're dying, dying
Just living proof that the camera's lying
And oh, oh, oh-pen wide
Cause this is your night
So smile
Cause you'll go out in style
You'll go out in style
If you let me i could
I'd show you how to build your fences
Set restrictions
Separate from the world
The constant battle that you hate to fight
Just blame the limelight
There's no place else you'd rather be
And now you can't turn back
Because this road is all you'll ever have
And it's obvious that you're dying, dying
Just living proof that the camera's lying
And oh, oh, oh-pen wide
Cause this is your night
So smile
Yeah, yeah you're asking for it
With every breath that you breathe in
Just breathe it in
Yeah, yeah well you're just a mess
You do all this big talkin'
So now let's see you walkin'
I said let's see you walkin'
Yeah, yeah well you're just a mess
You do all this big talkin'
So now let's see you walkin'
I said let's see you walkin'
And it's obvious that you're dying, dying
Just living proof that the camera's lying
And oh, oh, oh-pen wide
Yeah oh, oh, oh-pen wide
Yeah oh, oh, oh-pen wide
Cause you'll go out in style
You'll go out in style
For A Pessimist, I'm Pretty Optimistic
Just talk yourself up
And tear yourself down
You ripped through one wall
Now find a way around
Well what's the problem?
You've got a lot of nerve
What'd you think i would say?
You can't run away, you can't run away
So what did you think i would say?
You can't run away, you can't run away
You wouldn't
I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away
You threw it away
I'm not so naive
My sorry eyes can see
The way you fly shy
Of almost everything
Well, if you give up
You'll get what you deserve
What'd you think i would say?
You can't run away, you can't run away
So what did you think i would say?
You can't run away, you can't run away
You wouldn't
I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away
You threw it away
You were finished long before
We had even seen the start
Why don't you stand up, be a man about it?
Fight with your bare hands about it now
I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay well did you
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away
I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay
I put my faith in you, so much faith
And then you just threw it away
Franklin
And when we get home, i know we won't be home at all
This place we live, it is not where we belong
And i miss who we were in the town that we could call our own
Going back to get away after Everything has changed
Could you remind me of a time when we were so alive?
(Everything has changed)
Do you remember that? do you remember that?
(Everything has changed)
Could you help me push aside all that i have left behind?
(Everything has changed)
Do you remember that? do you remember that?
So we stand here now and no one knows us at all
I won't get used to this
I won't get used to being gone
And going back won't feel the same if we aren't staying
Going back to get away after Everything has changed
Could you remind me of a time when we were so alive?
(Everything has changed)
Do you remember that? do you remember that?
(Everything has changed)
Could you help me push aside all that i have left behind?
(Everything has changed)
Do you remember that? do you remember that?
Taking up our time
Taking up our time
Taking up our time
It's taking up our time again
Go back we can't go back at all
It's taking up our time again
Go back we can't go back at all
It's taking up our time again
Go back we can't go back at all
It's taking up our time, taking up our time
Could you remind me of a time when we were so alive?
Do you remember that? do you remember that?
