London’s burning! London’s burning!

All across the town, all across the night
Everybody’s driving with full headlights
Black or white turn it on, face the new religion
Everybody’s sitting ’round watching television!

London’s burning with boredom now
London’s burning dial 99999

I’m up and down the Westway, in an’ out the lights
What a great traffic system – it’s so bright
I can’t think of a better way to spend the night
Then speeding around underneath the yellow lights

London’s burning with boredom now
London’s burning dial 99999

Now I’m in the subway and I’m looking for the flat
This one leads to this block, this one leads to that
The wind howls through the empty blocks looking for a home
I run through the empty stone because I’m all alone

London’s burning with boredom now…
London’s burning dial 99999

You can play it bad but you cant beat me
Life is such a drag when the whole world is falling apart
I didn’t have ground or a leg to bleed me
You had the last laugh but you never had a chance from the start

You can play it bad but you cant beat me
The world is gunna crack so come on now show me some heart
rip the fuckin floor from out beneath me
Life is such a drag when the whole world is falling apart

Paranoia, nice to know ya all the time I lose control
Hypertension overload, let it go here we go

Woahh, just gimme one second
Woahh just gimme one second to breath

get so fucking high now you cant see me
Life is such a drag when the whole world is falling apart
Ive never told a lie, why don’t you believe me?
We were born to lose, so you might as well aim for the start

Why, tell me why never bring to see me
If you want it so bad then come on baby show me your scars
Give me your best shot but you can’t beat me
Life is such a drag when the whole world is falling apart

Paranoia, nice to know ya all the time I lose control
Hypertension overload, let it go here we go

Woahh, just gimme one second
Woahh just gimme one second to breath

(solo)

Paranoia’s suffocating
the stress (the stress) is suffocating
the paranoia’s always waiting
the pressure is suffocating

Woahh just gimme some time to breath

Woahh, just gimme one second
Woahh just gimme one second to breath (x2)

Life is such a drag when the whole world is falling apart (x2)

I have my mother’s dreams,
I have my father’s eyes,
You can’t take that from me,
Just go ahead and try.
The cursed city sleeps,
Watch ions in the sky,
Preparing to unleash,
Let loose a mighty cry.

Can nobody save us?
Will anyone try?
The pyre is burning,
The severance is dying.
And all along they say it.

Help is on the way
(They said, they said)
Help is on the way
(They said, they said)
Hold my hand to help see.
Right there in front of me.
Help is on the way.

Five thousand feet below,
As black smoke engulfs the sky,
The ocean floor explodes,
Eleven mothers cry.
My bones all resonate,
A burning lullaby,
You can’t take that from me,
Just go ahead and try.

She says that’s the shoreline,
With hands in the air,
Her words miss the dark light,
Does anyone care?
And all along they say it.

Help is on the way
(They said, they said)
Help is on the way

(They said, they said)
Hold my hand, to help see.
Right there in front of me.
Help is on the way.

Right here! Right here! [x3]

Choking on the black gold,
Upon which we rely,
We keep actions in the attics,
To see cameras in the sky.

Help is on the way
(They said, they said)
Help is on the way
(They said, they said)

We were told just to sit tight,
Cause somebody will soon arrive.
Help is on the way.
But it never came!
It never came!

Help is on the way
(They said, they said)
Help is on the way
(They said, they said)
Hold my hand, to help see.
Right there in front of me.
Help is on the way.
On the way.

All this talking to you
I don’t know what I’m to do
I don’t know where you stand
What’s inside of your head

All this thinking of you
Is that what you’re doing too?
You’re always on my mind
I talk about you all of the time

CHORUS
Don’t waste another day
Don’t waste another minute
I can’t wait to see your face
Just to show you how much I mean it

So open up your heart, help me understand
Please tell me who you are
So I can show you who I am

You’re just standing by
You’re just wasting time
Why don’t you just tell me the truth
About me and you

And as the time goes by
I hope you realize
If you ask me to
I just might be with you

CHORUS
So don’t waste another day
Don’t waste another minute
I can’t wait to see your face
Just to show you how much I mean it

So open up your heart, help me understand
Please tell me who you are
So I can show you who I am

Stop standing there, standing there
And stop acting like you don’t ca-a-are
Stop being scared, being scared
Stop acting like you don’t ca-a-are

CHORUS
So don’t waste another day
Don’t waste another minute
I can’t wait to see your face
Just to show you how much I mean it

Open up your heart, help me understand
Please tell me who you are
So I can show you who I am

So don’t waste another day
Don’t waste another minute
I can’t wait to see your face
Just to show you how much I mean it

Open up your heart, help me understand
Please tell me who you are
So I can show you who I am
Who I am, who I a-am
Who I am

Some People may run.
While others have fun.
Tryin’ to grab what they can.
So I lie in the grass.
I had too much and too fast.
And the best of all times.
Waiting out the days to go by and
waters run dry.

But I’ve made up my mind.
It´s calling me call me anytime.
It´coming up each and every line.
Keep calling me call anytime.
Oh oh oh here is the song.
For those who never ever sit back and recover.
Here is the one for those who never shiver.
The cool cats I adore.

Some people wear gloves.
Carrying their portion of love.
Until death comes from above.
Now for dreams and for plans.
You try as hard as you land.

But I’ve made up my mind.
It´s calling me call me anytime.
It´coming up each and every line.
Keep calling me call anytime.
Here is the song.
For those who never ever sit back and recover.
Here is the one for those who never shiver.
The cool cats I adore.
The cool cats I adore.
The cool cats I adore.

No sir, well I don’t wanna be the blame, not anymore
It’s your turn, so take a seat we’re settling the final score
And why do we like to hurt, so much?

I can’t decide
You have made it harder just to go on
And why, all the possibilities where I was wrong

That’s what you get when you let your heart win, whoa
That’s what you get when you let your heart win, whoa
I drowned out all my sense with the sound of its beating
And that’s what you get when you let your heart win, whoa

I wonder, how am I supposed to feel when you’re not here
Cause I burned every bridge I ever built when you were here
I still try holding onto silly things, I never learn
Oh why, all the possibilities I’m sure you’ve heard

That’s what you get when you let your heart win, whoa
That’s what you get when you let your heart win, whoa
I drowned out all my sense with the sound of its beating (beating)
And that’s what you get when you let your heart win, whoa

Pain, make your way to me, to me
And I’ll always be just so inviting
If I ever start to think straight
This heart will start a riot in me
Let’s start, start, hey!

Why do we like to hurt so much?
Oh why do we like to hurt so much?

That’s what you get when you let your heart win!
Whoa

That’s what you get when you let your heart win, whoa
That’s what you get when you let your heart win, whoa

Now I can’t trust myself with anything but this
And that’s what you get when you let your heart win, whoa

My Dear, there is no danger.
Can’t you see the times I’ve lied?
Too swift and smart, but strangers.

Oh, before the rush is over.
We were beautiful again.
While the victims soon recover.

(OHHH!)
If we run this light and take a halo life.
No one will care at all.
(OHHH!)
We can burn it and leave.
For we are the Beautiful Thieves.
No one suspects at all.
No one suspects.

Oh, are we running towards death?
I have met him times before.
He adores us like the rest.

Oh, even if we’re discovered.
Just be sure to wear your best.
We will surely make the covers.

(OHHH!)
If we run this light, take a halo life.
No one will care at all.
(OHHH!)
We can burn it and leave.
For we are the Beautiful Thieves.
No one suspects at all.
No one suspects.

Who would run for cover?
Who would run from us?
Who would run for cover?
Who would run from us?

(OHHH!)
If we run this light, take a halo life.
No one will care at all.
(OHHH!)
We can burn it and leave.
For we are the Beautiful Thieves.
No one suspects at all.
No one suspects at all.
(OHHH!)
If we run this light, take a fellow life.
No one will care at all.
(OHHH!)
We can burn it and leave.
For we are the Beautiful Thieves.
No one suspects at all.
No one suspects.

This is a war we can’t win
After ten thousand years, it’s still us against them
And my heroes have always died at the end
So who’s going to account for these sins?

And I don’t know who here is my friend
I’m certain that I’ve seen uglier men
But Christ, fuck me if I can remember when
Will I never be lonely again?

Olden times are returning once more
As six dark-winged devils line up at my door
Each one is more evil than that which came before
Seven angels find me spread across the floor

You’d like everyone to believe you’re a star
And I’ll admit that it’s worked out pretty well so far
But when they see the kind of person that you really are
Then you won’t be laughing so hard

I’m depraved and disgusting, I spew like a fountain
I’ve been debased, defaced, disgraced and destroyed
“Most of all disappointed,” I say atop this mountain
As I urinate into the void

Fuck, I’m frustrated, freaking out something fierce
Would you help me? I’m hungry, I suffer and I starve
And I struggle and stammer until I’m up to my ears
In miserable quote-unquote art

About how ever since our forefathers came on this land
We’ve been coddling those we should be running through
Please don’t wait around for them to come shake hands
They’re not going to be waiting for you

Because these humans treat humans like humans treat hogs
They get used up, carved up, and fried in a pan
But I wasn’t born to die like a dog
I was born to die just like a man

It’s still us against them
And they’re winning

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 my shoulder (over and over)
And I just can’t sink any lower (lower and lower)
The hounds of hell are getting closer (closer and closer)
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)

Follow the rainbow, my lucky omen
There ain’t no pot of gold, just copper tokens
I found the key to life, the lock was broken
All my accomplishments, are best left unspoken

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 my shoulder (over and over)
And I just can’t sink any lower (lower and lower)
The hounds of hell are getting closer (closer and closer)
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)

My horror story is nearly over
I said I’m sorry, but I was sober
I beg for mercy from my infernal friend
The one that drops the nails into my coffin

I got the devil on my shoulder
I got the devil on my shoulder

I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
And I just can’t sink any lower (lower and lower)
They come to take me, take me over (closer and closer)
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)

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 won’t forget.
And every single time i see your face it reminds me of why i walked away.
I won’t forget.
And this is how you remind me that when i walked away,
I was right to save me from myself.
Goodbye, never say i am not enough.

I’m scared i’ve thrown it all away and i’ll never be the same.
What have they done? what have i become…
This is the end of running from you.
I promise you that

I won’t forget.
And every single time i see your face it reminds me of why i walked away.
I won’t forget.
And this is how you remind me that when i walked away,
I was right to save me from myself.
Goodbye, never say i am not enough.

Never say never, never say i’m not enough.
Never say that i…
Never say never, never say i’m not enough.
Never say i’m not enough!
