We're back again
Let's make a toast
And raise your glasses high
To everyone of you who doubted us

We're back again
Let's make a toast
And raise your glasses high
To everyone whose karma's a bitch right?

. . .


Oh sweet insanity
You take my hand and walk me out into the dark
We walk this road for hours and hours
To the white hills, and the oceans

On a collision course, to hell we march
We're doomed to this now
Oh the irony
If I'm going down I won't go down alone
You're doomed to this one
You're doomed to this now
Hold your breath my dear
We're going under

I've walk this road for hours
To the white hills, and the oceans
I search for solace in this toxic land of sin
Just let me in
Don't wake me up, their songs are soothing
Their wine subdues me
Hold your breath my dear
We're going under

Dreams, my mind won't me lift from my dreams
And thought I try I can't escape my mind
Dreams, my mind won't lift me from my dreams
And though you try you can't escape me

Now you've seen what I've become
Now you've seen what I can do
Now you've seen what I'm capable of

I've walk this road for hours to the white hills, and the oceans
I search for solace in this toxic land of sin
Just let me in
Don't wake me up, their songs are soothing
Their wine subdues me

Welcome to the diary of a man that lost his mind so long ago
Welcome to the shell of a man with a heart so black and cold

Over and over in my head

. . .


We're back again, you know we're not fucking around
Got a bottle of jack in our hands, you tryna' keep up kid?
Let's see who hits the ground
We've drank the drinks, we've done the drugs, clearly we don't remember
We've come so far, we've shown them all, without us you'd fall and fade away

They say it all breaks down to keeping your feet on the ground
My sole intention is keeping my head in the clouds
They say that I can't last a day in the real world
I say you wouldn't survive one night in mine

Notorious and shit I wouldn't change it for the world
I'm infamous but damn you can't help but love this shit

I'm everything we need make this scene what it should have been
Remember platinum albums, sold out stadiums, leave it to me
Let's tell the truth, not to be rude but we're all irrelevant
This music's dead with a bullet in it's head
Let's wake it up

It's so insane, I'm so insane
Going insane, I'm so insane

. . .


Please, you have to help me
This is all that you please
If you could see my soul
If only you could see my soul, I could change you
It's mine, it's haunted
Help me please

Please give me a fucking excuse
Or is it just one reason to give you regret?

Are you with me or are you on your own?
It's time to choose your side, so choose your side
Are you with me or are you on your own?
It's time to choose your side, so choose your fucking side

Could be the end of the world
And so I lay here on my own wasting my life away
Could be the end of the world
And so I lay here on my own wasting my life away

Hear me now
Get off your knees
Know the changes will you bring
And the thoughts you sang to are you'll ever know
Get off your knees, open your eyes

I'll regret never again
And I stand above you

And I can't feel this pain anymore
And I can't carry on this way
I'm hiding behind false hope

Could be the end of the world
So I'll lay here on my own wasting my life away
Could be the end of the world
So I'll lay here on my own wasting my life away

Over and over
Fucking hell
Fuck

. . .


I'm out the door, I'm on my ass again like every night before
I'm off the wall, out of my fucking mind, I'm out of control
I'll be the end of her, I'm in her head and in control
She's let me in, now take a sip and let the show begin
The floor's all yours, the house is full
You've made the slip now take the fall
I pull your strings, you're too deep in
So will she sink or swim

Oh she's drown, how very spectacular
What a works of art I've spawned
Man am I proud of myself on this one
She's such a fucking masterpiece
Self destruction is such a pretty little thing

I know that I should walk away
But I can't bring myself to quit this game
She's just a beautiful girl with the weight of the world on her shoulders
I'm just a kick in the teeth from a world that's painted gold

She's out the door, she's on her ass again like every night before
She's off the wall, out of her fucking mind, she's out of control
I was the end of her
In her head, in control

Just like before
I should've told you again
That I'm sorry
I'm so sorry

. . .


You'll never really find those perfect words.
Something more than just... "Goodbye."

It's hard to remember the good times when there's just so much heartache,
but they deserve more than that.
They deserve more than just one single moment of sadness.

So just remember that when there's enough love in our hearts
It burns like a fucking supernova
And there sure as hell is enough love in our heart to smile that famous smile.

We all lose someone at some point in our lives,
but don't ever let go of that smile.

Hold on forever. Because that's our final dedication.

. . .


(Even though I'm on my own)
(I know I'm not alone)
(Cause I know there's someone, somewhere)
(Waiting when I make it home)
(So here's one from the heart)
(A life line from the start)
(Home sweet home)
(To call my own)

It was you
If only I could do this
You put the music in my heart
Now I'm singing with a band in Memphis
It's hard just, to be strong
Not knowing if, I've done you wrong
I want to imagine
A smile when you hear my songs

Even though I'm on my own
I know I'm not alone
Cause I know there's someone, somewhere
Waiting when I make it home
So here's one from the heart
A life line from the start
Home sweet home
On my own

A letter home
And I don't really speak much
We both know I'm not keen too
But I think there's things I've left unsaid
I'm okay, don't worry
I wish I'd been a better kid
I'm trying, to slow down
I'm sorry for letting you down

Even though I'm on my own

I know I'm not alone
Cause I know there's someone, somewhere
Waiting when I make it home
So here's one from the heart
A life line from the start
Home sweet home
On my own

Yeah!

You know it's just, Rock and roll
I know you by my side, through it all
My time running out
And I'll take over the world

Even though I'm on my own
I know I'm not alone
Cause I know there's someone, somewhere
Waiting when I make it home
So here's one from the heart
A life line from the start
Home sweet home
On my own

Even though I'm on my own
I know I'm not alone
Cause I know there's someone, somewhere
Waiting when I make it home
So here's one from the heart
A life line from the start
Home sweet home
On my own

. . .


Get the fuck away from me!

I know that I have done wrong and continue to do so but without remorse
I know that I am on a fast track to the grave and I'm headed there alone
I struggle to find myself this time
Save yourself for a man with a conscience
I fight to find myself this time
Save yourself for a man that is not me

I spend my days looking through pages
Try to find a way, to get away from me
A love to give that leaves you breathless
Now all I need to find, a way back inside my mind

I don't want to leave you breathless
When will you realize
I want to leave you breathless
When will you realize
I don't want to leave you breathless
When will you save yourself

I spend my days looking through pages
Try to find a way, to get away from me
A love to give that leaves you breathless
Now all I need to find, a way back inside my mind

I need to find
A way back inside my mind
I need to find
A way back inside my mind

This is not the end, it's not the end of
This is not the end, it's not the end of
This is not the end, it's not the end of
This is not the end

Every mistake I've made leaves a scar that burns every day
Yet still I carry on
Without regret without remorse I'm gone
You're better off to walk away
I am corruption, I am sin

Forget my name
Forget my face
Forget my name
Forget my face

. . .


Gather round my friends
I need a match and only one match
I think it's time I make my own way
I'm turning my back on this city and I'm not looking back
You'll never hear my name without your chest in flames

I'll make my own mistakes
Even though I never learn
I'm running from myself
If only you could see behind my eyes

Run
Get up, get up
Get on your fucking feet

I'll make my own mistakes
Even though I never learn
I'm running from myself
If only you could see behind my eyes

Follow me now I could use some company
Bring your friends and we'll burn the city to the ground
Burn the temples

The fires fill the skies as the smoke fills my lungs
What a beautiful notion
A single action brings this city to motion

. . .


I'm so done with it I won't go back again and
I'm okay with this, that I'll be on my own
Until the day i die which shouldn't be that long
So I'll just do what I do and make the most of it

I won't fall down again
My heart's now dead and gone
And I'm still breathing
I made it out alive

Oh fuck this is fun I just can't believe I didn't find this before
To just indulge even if it kills me
Who gives a fuck if we die
Another Bottle Down!
You should really try it sometime
Cos it feels to good

Without a care if a heart gets broken
You'll all learn in the end that there's a better way
Baby move in closer, you couldn't hurt me if you tried

I won't fall down again
My heart's now dead and gone
And I'm still breathing
I made it out alive

Take a seat my dear
Make yourself comfortable this could take a while
Crack another, dear
I can't see now and I wouldn't change a thing
Life should burn with such a fucking flame
If not you've only got yourself to blame

. . .


They said that self destruction I stopped below and for along,
My only home is the bottom of the bottle and a rolled up bill and im ready to go!
I let the scent die in and out and I dont care how long I last,
On the constant drink and drugs and dont get me wrong I'm having a fucking blast.

I am rock and roll, living a life we can only dream of,
I am rock and roll at its fucking finest

Just like the cigarettes hurt,
Just like the whiskey burns, whoa wohoa
I guess i'm never gonna learn

Just like the cigarettes hurt,
Just like the whiskey burns, whoa wohoa
I guess i'm never gonna learn

You cannot stop me till my insides bleeding,
You cannot stop me till my last breathe comes,
Im gonna go until I hit the floor
Cant find a way back to my feet
Anymore

Pass me a glass and lets destroy everything in this fucking place
Like a billion miles an hour you pussys cant keep up with this fucking pace

I am rock and roll, living a life we can only dream of,
I am rock and roll at its fucking finest

Just like the cigarettes hurt,
Just like the whiskey burns, wohoa wohoa
I guess i'm never gonna learn

Just like the cigarettes hurt,
Just like the whiskey burns, whoa wohoa
I guess i'm never gonna learn

Ive drunk the last time you stood here, your by my side,
You thought that it should be just like the good old days of rock and roll
Without a drink, without regret without a second thought
You look below on the end of the back of your fucking throat

I am rock and roll living a life we can only dream of
I am rock and roll at its fucking finest

. . .


So he came forth and said onto me

Son, you are forsaken

Condemned for the sins that you live

I offer you forgiveness

So he came forth and said onto me

Son, you are forsaken

Condemned for the sins that you live

I offer you forgiveness

Bow down before me

Bow down before me

I will never bow to he who claims to be divine

I'll tear down your gates with my bare fucking hands

And burn the world that you rule over

No matter how convinced you are, you're not a god of mine

You're not a fucking god of mine

I never believed in you

From what I see it was justified

I never believed in you

This power over the masses is a gift you don't deserve

When your blood spills, we'll drink from your skull

You can run, you can hide

Bitch

I'll fucking find you

I'll tear your eyes out of your self-righteous face

Lord

I'll fucking find you

I'll tear your tongue out of your rancid fucking mouth

Heaven will, burn to the fucking ground

Your world will crumble, and fall from the skies

Blood will spill, and rain upon the earth

Your reign is over, and I'll wear your crown

This is your demise

I know you feel it in your chest

This is your demise

It's getting closer

This is your demise

I'm creeping from the depths of hell

This is your demise

I know where you sleep

I never believed in you

From what I can see it was justified

I never believed in you

What a way to end the world

With false hope in a false god

What a way to end the world

With false hope in you
