Arson of a bitch

we know who set the fire…

everyone of you

we know who let the liars…

kill the truth

and now it won’t be long

to feel the new decay

and now it won’t be long

this fire burns away

 

*everything that we ever loved

everything that we’d ever hate

now we blame

 

$ arson of a bitch…you know it’s me

no more hiding…from…

x2

 

we know who set the fire…

everyone of you

why’d you have to kill?

 

*repeat

$repeat

lit up now

now we blame

$repeat

Shoulders

how many times could I

try to lie and say I’m alive?

how many times should I

keep up this act and try?

 

*with the weight of the world

 

$ up on my shoulders

I should have told her

x2

goodbye

 

how many times should I

keep to myself my war cry?

how many times could I

when I could simplify?

 

*repeat

$repeat

goodbye to everyone

goodbye

*repeat

$repeat

Heart Roulette

 

*what you think and what you know

are not the same but you can’t let go

of what you think that what you know

can’t be the same but it will show

 

X2

$ four chambers or six

if you take the heart, I’ll take the risk

 

behind these eyes

you’ll realize

that behind these lies

you’ll despise

 

of what you think that what you know

can’t be the same but it will show

X2

$repeat chorus

 

you’ve got to get it all out

but you’ve been running your mouth

you have to get it all out

but that’s not what you’re about X2

$repeat chorus

Hostage

you drank the potion to feel the motion

if you get in, you’re never getting out

laid to rest or getting laid just to rest

the unabashed name tag whore now

 

! Jesus didn’t know the year, it’s not who said it first

but who said it loud enough to pierce your ears

 

*if you’ve got something to sell me

why don’t you just tell me so that I can switch?

if you’ve got something to show me

act like you still know me, make me your hostage

 

you put a dollar in the change machine but nothing ever changes

no one’s at the missing person’s office and the dog with no hair tells you what mange is

the dog trained the scientist by having him ring the bell

we’ve allotted one day for training walking tall on your eggshells

 

! Jesus didn’t know the year, it’s not who said it first

but who said it loud enough to pierce your ears

 

*if you’ve got something to sell me

why don’t you just tell me so that I can switch

if you’ve got something to show me

act like you still know me, make me your hostage

Come on and release me

Cliff Diver

buckle up, get yourselves strapped in

knuckle grip all the way to the end

hold on for the ride

turn it up till you can’t even hear

don’t look back we’re the only ones here

let’s fly…let’s dive

 

*can you see me go?

where I’ll end up who knows

I just know I’m never coming back to you

can you see us go?

where we’ll end up, who knows

we just know we’re never coming back to you

 

pedal down till you push through the floor

metal drowns when the road is no more

we’re goin’ on for the ride

flying’ high, no need for no wings

gorgeous night, let it out go and sing

until they have to hear us

 

*repeat

*repeat

 

and we’re taking off

we’re leaving now

we’re making off

with a dollar amount

of nothing

cuz we don’t need

anything from anyone

anywhere…anymore

 

 

Livin’ on the edge (Aerosmith Cover)

There's something wrong with the world today

I don't know what it is

Something's wrong with our eyes

We're seeing things in a different way

And God knows it ain't his

It sure ain't no surprise, yeah

Living on the edge

Living on the edge

Living on the edge

Living on the edge

There's something wrong with the world today

The light bulb's getting dim

There's meltdown in the sky

If you can judge a wise man

By the color of his skin

Then mister you're a better man than I, oh

Living on the edge

(You can't help yourself from falling)

Living on the edge

(You can't help yourself at all)

Living on the edge

(You can't stop yourself from falling)

Living on the edge

(Everybody, everybody)

Tell me what you think about your situation

Complication, aggravation

Is getting to you, yeah

If Chicken Little tells you that the sky is falling

Even if it wasn't, would you still come crawling

Back again?

I bet you would my friend

Again, and again, and again, and again, and again

Yeah, tell me what you think about your situation

Complication, aggravation

Is getting to you

If Chicken Little tells you that the sky is falling

Even if it wasn't, would you still come crawling

Back again?

I bet you would my friend

Again, and again, and again, and again

Something right with the world today

And everybody knows it's wrong

But we can tell 'em no or we could let it go

But I would rather be a hanging on

Living on the edge

(You can't help yourself from falling)

Living on the edge

(You can't help yourself at all)

Living on the edge

(You can't stop yourself from falling)

Living on the edge

(Everybody, everybody)

Living on the edge

Living on the edge

Living on the edge

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...

Get talkin' to me

Living on the edge

You can't help yourself from falling

Living on the edge

You can't help yourself at all

Living on the edge

You can't stop yourself from falling

Living on the edge

Living on the edge

You can't help yourself

You can't help yourself

Living on the edge

You can't help yourself at all

Living on the edge

You can't help yourself

You can't help yourself

Living on the edge

You can't help yourself

You can't help yourself

Living on the edge

You can't help yourself at all

Living on the edge

Yeah, yeah, yeah...

Honor Amongst Thieves

what’s your stereotype?

I wanna’ hear everything I can

what’s your love life like?

and does it come with a pension plan?

still connecting the dots

to a game that you can’t beat

 

$ but you’ll keep on trying

while your honesty’s dying

 

*it’s honor amongst thieves

in honor amongst thieves, you know it’s me

how many doors have been slammed in your face?

without reasonable doubt

i’ll always be your best disgrace

to turn around the quid pro quo

Let Go

it’s hard not to dwell on the past

when you would go change the path

if you could only go back

you’d pick the moment that’s now at hand

 

!it’s better to travel well than to arrive

it can get better still, so let’s take a drive

 

*out on the open road

still with no place to go

why was I never told?

this is something I should’ve known

out on the open road

still with no place to go

why was I never told?

I should’ve known it long ago

 

$ but they kept it a secret from me

you kept it a secret because you were scared I’d leave

 

better one thing that can bring you peace

than a thousand empty things

what if we became just what we think?

then maybe we all will win

REcoiled

last night told everything about my life

I can ask you all your favorite place to go

 

but when the question comes around

my answer won’t be found

 

because no one asked me

no one cared to know just what I think

 

no one ever has

no one ever asked

 

*this conversation now is over

I’ll be absent, far removed away from nowhere

this conversation now is over

I’ll be fine, hangin’ out with my new hangover

 

last night told everything about my life

I can ask you all your very favorite things

but when the question comes around

I’m left out of the crowd but that’s alright…that’s alright with me

 

but in the silence there’s a sound

and the walls, it will tear down

 

in the past, we

always acted like we cared

 

still here lyin’ on the ground

naked king still has his crown

 

*this conversation now is over

I’ll be absent, far removed away from nowhere

this conversation now is over

I’ll be fine hangin’ out with my new hangover

 

could you act like you cared?

just one moment to spare?

this conversation now is over…

I’ll be fine hangin’ out with my new hangover

War Dodger

where you going, Insane?

we’re still playing your old games

moving pieces for your sake

it’s hard to be real when you’re fake

 

*me of little faith in my employer

if you put “war” in “warrior”

 

$ I could’ve found a better way

or maybe found a better war to stay away from x2

now

 

who you talking to these days?

just people that decide who stays

*repeat

We built this city (Starship Cover)

We built this city

We built this city on rock and roll

Built this city

We built this city on rock and roll

Say you don't know me or recognize my face

Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place

Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight

Too many runaways eating up the night

Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't you remember?

We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

Someone's always playing corporation games

Who cares, they're always changing corporation names

We just want to dance here, someone stole the stage

They call us irresponsible, write us off the page

Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't you remember?

We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

It's just another Sunday in a tired old street

Police have got the choke hold, oh, then we just lost the beat

Who counts the money underneath the bar?

Who rides the wrecking ball into our guitars?

Don't tell us you need us 'cause we're the ship of fools

Looking for America, coming through your schools

Don't you remember? (Remember)

Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't you remember?

We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

We built, we built this city, yeah (Built this city)

We built, we built this city

We built, we built this city yeah (Built this city)

We built, we built this city

We built, we built this city yeah (Built this city)

We built, we built this city (Built this city)
