lyrics

VERSE 1
-----------
Word on the street is world's going down
Lives shuffle, stuck on repeat
How long will we keep waiting around?

Dead come and go, bodies pile higher
Green to gold to dead leaves to snow
Rivers of life dammed, choked and mired


PRE-CHORUS 1
--------------------
How did tomorrow become so empty?
How did we fail our happy ending?


CHORUS
------------
Death stares, truth dares
Face to face, door to door
All walk, no talk
Unafraid of anything anymore
Spotlight, too bright
Stick to the shadows that no one sees
No fear, so clear
It's about time we were put on our knees


VERSE 2
-----------
Word on the street is world's got you down
Pinned to the mat, got some news for you brother
Right now we're all scraping ground

A dead end beat, pulses on every street
Last rave of a dying race
Ecstatic, heartbeat erratic, clenched teeth


PRE-CHORUS 2
---------------------
What happens when the party's over
Left with yourself, shivering and sober?


BRIDGE
-----------
So bound to choose
(So bound to choose)
So bound to lose
(So bound to lose)
So bound to do
(So bound to do)
So many regrets
(So many regrets)
So bound to view - So bound to hope (So bound to view)
So bound to bruise - A silken rope (So bound to bruise)
So bound to you - Tightens to close (So bound to you)
Too many regrets - Around your neck (Around your neck)


CHORUS
------------
Death stares, truth dares
Face to face, door to door
All walk, no talk
Unafraid of anything anymore
Spotlight, too bright
Stick to the shadows that no one sees
No fear, so clear
It's about time we were put on our knees

Death stares, truth dares
Face to face, door to door
All walk, no talk
Unafraid of anything anymore
Spotlight, too bright
Stick to the shadows that no one sees
No fear, so clear
It's about time we learned humility
