Tonight The World dies

Lost the meaning of our stay
Learn to live another day
Doubt the choices that we've made
I know that we can't hide our shame
It's only in disguise

Drowning in our own debris
Fool our thoughts as though we're free
Close our eyes so we can see
The depth of all we mean to be
If only in my eyes

I don't mind(read the writing on the wall)
Mother cries (tortured voices as we crawl)
Find me on my better days
To lose me once again... in a way

So try and love me while you can
And take the time to understand
As long as I can touch your face
You know I'll never leave this place
If only in my mind

I don't mind (read the writing on the wall)
Mother cries (tortured voices as we crawl)
Find me on my better days
To lose it once again, in a way
But I seem to find better ways to consciously pretend

Silence all I wanna say
With tendencies to run away
I run away with you tonight
Launder all my sins away
And just like that mistakes are made
You know, tonight the world dies

I don't mind (read the writing on the wall)
Mother cries (tortured voices as we crawl)
Find me on my better days
To lose it once again
But I seem to find better ways to consciously pretend

4:00 AM

There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away

There's a place where nothing seems to be a simple cry cohesively
It's all your mind, all your mind
Something little shouldn't feel this way, we got a million thoughts we can't convey
It's all your life, all your life

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories, the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away

These things don't happen here, another fictional reality
It's all you'll find, all you'll find
It's just as good as any other day, I'm gonna teach you about mortality
No, it's not right, it's not right

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories, the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running away

In many ways, I guess I'll never let you go
I'm close behind but I've got room here left to grow
Until our second chance, just enjoy the dance,
And find out who we are (these dreams will never leave you)
Let's find out what we are (these dreams will never leave you)
(Never leave you asking why)

It's four in the morning, you got one more chance to die
Like beautiful stories, the greatest chapters flew right by
There comes a day when we all find out for ourselves
That once we have the words to say, there's no one left to tell
I know why you're running
I know why you're running away
