Deadly from the head down Aching for a drop of red Sober to the hind teeth Dry for a day or two They said don't look behind, they said don't look behind If you take it on your good side Turn it around to say you wont If you take it on your good side Turn it around to say you wont If you lay down and let it all go by and bid farewell to another place and time If you lay down and let it all go by and bid farewell and never look behind.. Because you're running out of time Deadly from the head down Plagued with another day Vultures on the sky line King for a day or two They said don't look behind, they said don't look behind If you lay down and let it all go by and bid farewell to another place and time If you lay down and let it all go by and bid farewell and never look behind.. Because you're running out of time If we lay down, let it go by and you will fall And you will fall from grace this time. Because you're running out of time.

Empty out your pockets and walk away Empty out your pockets and walk We took this walk together to burn our feet We took this walk together to burn If you call it out and say it's time Because if it's not quiet what you wanted, then it's not worth fighting for now You sounded the alarm and walked away You sounded the alarm and walked I need my ears to ring and ribs to shake This silence is so loud it hurts If you call it out and say it's time Because if it's not quiet what you wanted, then it's not worth fighting for now

Who'd have thought revenge could, revenge could be so sweet I wont need knives I'll bide my time, come haunt them in their sleep It all comes around in the end And they will meet their maker you can depend And i will be laughing on the other side of my face If only i believed that, believe they had a soul There thoughts would be like poisons, eating them up whole Cause they should be chewing glass spitting sand now But i wont need to move my hands It all comes around in the end And they will meet their maker you can depend And i will be laughing on the other side of my face And I'll rest with assured belief And i will drink to their defeat With expectations and true belief It all will come around in the end And they will meet their maker you can depend I will with patience I'll be waiting for and I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting.... And I'll be laughing on the other side of my face…

Headstrong 04:28
Is this what happens when the tide comes in? Live move quickly as time gets its win You hold on, you fight on You hold on, you fight on Detach, slow down, you're worn out but headstrong You frame grows tiered as your bones grow thin As you wind me up and watch me spin You hold on, you fight on You hold on, you fight on Detach, slow down, you're worn out but headstrong Because i cant be the one who holds you, but I can be the one who cares As we all run around like angles, avoiding fate and somber stares Hold back aiming for a better way Headstrong you will not anticipate All out you will find a better way Detach, slow down, you're worn out but headstrong Because i cant be the one who holds you, but I can be the one who cares As we all run around like angles, avoiding fate and somber stares

Broken Bones 04:11
And I'll be on my best when we get there you'll be fine, you'll be good but not distressed And I'll have broken bones when we get there, you'll be fine, you'll be good,I bet my life Oh no it's like we're going around in circles Oh no it's like you're pulling and my strings So wake me up when we get, if we get there soon So wake me up when we get, if we get there soon So wake me up Fortune fires your distress, there will be no contest, it will be good, you'll be fine, I'll bet your life I'll have broken bones if we get there, but i'll be fine, I'll grit my teeth it's for the best Oh no it's like we're going around in circles Oh no it's like you're pulling and my strings

He's long in the tooth, he bites like you With a withered hand firm but true A gentle reminder of what lived before Like a chalk outline drawn out on the floor When she crawls inside your head With her eight legs, teeth sharp and set Now crawl back and step away And let the morning take her instead With the sharpest of tongues it needs to be told A battle of wills with a deadly hold A gentle reminder of what lived before Like a chalk outline sprawled out on the floor When she crawls inside your head With her eight legs, teeth sharp and set Now crawl back and step away And let the morning take her instead Because you're tired of wasting time on fading chalk outlines
