As I get closer, my dreams get farther
I climb that ladder, but you kick it over
Thirsty for water, you give me vinegar
When I drink your medicine, it just makes me sicker
I dug a hole so deep
I’m gonna drown in my mistakes
can’t even sell my soul
‘Cause it ain’t worth shit to take
I got the devil on [...]

Breathe! they will turn their backs on me unless i decide to breathe.
You will forget me unless i breathe…
I’ve seen the worst in myself tonight. i almost lost the fight.
My mind is lost within my dreams.
Pinned down, wrapped up, in the arms of sleep.
I feel it slowing now. i can barely see my way out.
I [...]

Do you remember what we used to have
As if all our dreams were possible
All that is destined was you and I
But distance has torn us apart
Forgive me for everything iv done wrong
Lead me back to where my heart belongs
Can we start again
Go back in time to where we started
Can we start again
What we have can’t [...]

Strange things happen in a lifetime
I was yesterday’s voice, tomorrow’s ours
Those who see numbers refuse the great forgiver
Powerful men raise your hands and deliver
Low superstition to which we all claim
The sun hides itself, concealing its grin
And waits for the dawn to reveal itself again
Oh, young cardinals
Nesting in the trees
Oh, hear our song
And rain your innocence [...]

Have you ever been alone?
Fighting your own war?
Someone stole the life from you and now they’re back for more
Your heart is on the floor
Detangled of control
Oh I don’t want this anymore
So I’ll be sailing on
Out into bermuda blue
Compass needle breaks
Like the heart I gave to you
I’ve been laying down in the devils lair
Sailing into the [...]

I stumble through the wreckage, rusted from the rain
There’s nothing left to salvage, no one left to blame
Among the broken mirrors, I don’t look the same
I’m rusted from the rain, I’m rusted from the rain
Dissect me until my blood runs down into the drain
My bitter heart is pumping oil into my veins
I’m nothing but a [...]

Everybody saying we gotta take a chance
And telling me what the hell went wrong
We only listen to the words that we sing
Now a million are singing along
(Last one)
We got it right, you got wrong,
We’re still around (Last one to die)
We’re going up, you’re going down
We’re still around (Last one to die)
NO RULES IN A
SCANDALOUS WORLD

And when the clock strikes 12, tell me where you gonna be?
Cleaning up the mess we’ve made or watching your T.V.
And if you have to ask, then you don’t have a clue,
There’s snow in Arizona while they’re bombing in Beirut
I hope some day… when i’m dead and gone,
We learned to right… everything that’s wrong,
With loving [...]
