Come watch the funeral
Come see the death of rock and roll
Watch the lights go down
From the inside
Bright eyes are dressed in black
Until we all come crawling back
We've waited long enough
For the last time
Come watch the funeral
Come see the death of rock and roll
Watch the lights go down
From the inside
Bright eyes are dressed in black
Until we all come crawling back
We’ve waited long enough
For the last time
Watch the lights go down
For the last time

I'm watching out from the window
Who's gonna stop you
Who's gonna tell
But who's gonna watch you
Destroy yourself
If only you could see
The weapon you were born to be
Chainsmoker hopeful
But let it be known
That I didn't come to take you home
Somewhere there's gotta be
Some devil you know better
I'm watching out from the window
I'll see you coming and I
Will watch as you run away
You've nothing left to hold on to
You've nowhere left you can hide
Oh ain't it all such a waste
The moon and the ocean
Your toes in the sand
Was there an explosion
In the promised land
Try not to stand too close
Did no one ever tell you
Carry your crosses
But let it be known
That you aren't meant to be alone
Somewhere there's gotta be
Something that lasts forever

The world that you were born in
Doesn't matter anymore
And we are all but better off
To die in holy wars
I'm not consecrated for your
Wish is my command
Tell me how to fake it
When my habits all go bad
You can't save yourself
Destroying everyone else
You can't save yourself
Someone's on the edge again
And everybody knows
If this is growing up
I'll die before I'm old
Someone wrote the gospel now
And someone wiped it clean
Maybe younger blood
Is better grease for new machines
You can't save yourself
Destroying everyone else
You can't save yourself
So promise me you'll bury me inside
The castle on the hill
If you won't say goodbye
Then I promise you I will

Born in a field
And buried by the Hollywood sign
It's all you can steal
And carry for the rest of your life
But where's the throne
When kingdoms are destroying themselves
And how do I know
That they weren't built to be broken
The darkest little golden age
Welcome to the global stage
Where everybody lives
On the market
Lighting up for smoking guns
And we are not the only ones
Your home isn't quite where my heart is
I don't
Believe
We are free
And we
Will end up
Born in a field
And buried by the Hollywood sign
It's all you can steal
And carry for the rest of your life
But where's the throne
When kingdoms are destroying themselves
And how do I know
That they weren't built to be broken
Everybody's on the run
For flying too close to the sun
Wings can always wind up
As ashes
I don't
Believe
We are free
And we
Will end up
Born in a field
And buried by the Hollywood sign
It's all you can steal
And carry for the rest of your life
But where's the throne
When kingdoms are destroying themselves
And how do I know
That they weren't built to be broken
Born in a field
And buried by the Hollywood sign
It's all you can steal
And carry for the rest of your life
But where's the throne
When kingdoms are destroying themselves
And how do I know
That they weren't built to be broken

Wreckage born and raised
I am owed a living here
But we get left to pay
Wasted saving grace
This seems like the kind of thing
You'd like to wash away
Don't remember me
Midnight headlights
Built for it chemically
It's the end of me
And I just don't know better
A public century
Flood light knife fight
Make me an enemy
Don't remember me
Or we'll wash out together
If I'm the last to change
Then you don't need to worry
Maybe I was born this way
Desperation caves
And so much time gets hurried
When it doesn't taste the same
Don't remember me
Midnight headlights
Built for it chemically
It's the end of me
And I just don't know better
A public century
Flood light knife fight
Make me an enemy
Don't remember me
Or we'll wash out together

Shame we're a city on the dark side of the moon
You're a natural disaster and the universe is too
Creationists and sadists made a masochist of you
You're chained up from the cradle all the way into the tomb
And this is where you sign your name in
Blood
Blood
Sold souls don't profit in a place where they aren't able
And no one makes a living where the houses aren't stable
Bad dreams and hanging trees the habits die much harder
Maybe now you'll understand why some here like it darker
And this is where you sign your name in
Blood
Blood
Blood
Blood

Three cheers for anesthetic
Never been so level headed still
It's all just vibration
In your own private failing nation
Some nights will roll you over
And you might wake up so much older still
But don't let it shake you
Because at the moment I can't save you
It's only chemicals I know
Forever young or never old
It's all so photographic
And you can't stand it
Look who's laughing now
Who here feels better off alone
Who here's no good at letting go
Sometimes we're all just traffic
And you can't stand it
Look who's laughing now
Is this a modern summer
Supernova star crossed lovers out
Just blink to miss it
American apocalyptic
Some nights will just roll over
And winter ends up so much colder still
But don't let it melt you
Because no one here knows how to help you
It's only chemicals I know
Forever young or never old
It's all so photographic
And you can't stand it
Look who's laughing now
Who here feels better off alone
Who here's no good at letting go
Sometimes we're all just traffic
And you can't stand it
Look who's laughing now

I see your future in the glow of my low fuel light
But you will never know
I won't believe it if you say you will or say you'd never
You'll reap what you have sewn
Lay me down
But I don't wanna hear you talk about it
Lay me down
I hope I never hear you talk about it
Are you a victim or a witness
The world around you
Are you at least a friend
All the forgiveness you've been missing
Will serve to drown you
So stay off from the edge
You're a Holy Ghost and I am not a true believer
And I can almost see through you
On our knees again and all our sins are painted on the walls
And if the world is watching
Lay me down
But I don't wanna hear you talk about it
Lay me down
I hope I never hear you talk about it

I know a secret
But I can't tell unless you promise you can take it to your grave
If I believed it, if I said nothing that's still more than I would ever wanna say
Don't act so casual
Nobody ever gets away with always trying to play it cool
This isn't natural
But really nothing is so does it really matter what you do
Don't panic just close your eyes and breathe
You can't stand it but you're still on your knees
The show's over you don't have to go home
But you can't stay here forever
There'll be consequences that hopefully we won't remember
I swear you just don't get it
Sometimes some things don't get better
I'm not a hostage
But I'd be lying if I told you this is where I wanna be
This isn't bondage
But I'll be honest when I'm with you I don't feel like I am free
I know a secret
I know a secret but I'd die before I'd ever let you know
You think you need this
You think you need this you just never learned how to let it go
Don't panic just close your eyes and breathe
You can't stand it but you're still on your knees
The show's over you don't have to go home
But you can't stay here forever
There'll be consequences that hopefully we won't remember
I swear you just don't get it
Sometimes some things don't get better
Maybe some time will pass and this whole town will turn to ashes
Don't hold your breath about it
We may all just end up drowning
Don't panic just close your eyes and breathe
You can't stand it but you're still on your knees
The show's over you don't have to go home
But you can't stay here forever
There'll be consequences that hopefully we won't remember
I swear you just don't get it
Sometimes some things don't get better
Sometimes some things don't get better
Sometimes some things don't get better

Tell me what it feels like
Tell me what it feels like to be
The prettiest nothing
In a place that no one can see
Say it if you want it
Say you're gonna take it and run
Say it if you need it
Oh may tomorrow never come
And I think you know it like I do
You know
Do you ever wonder if it's all for you
Nobody else I know can crash and burn the way you do
Do you ever wonder if it's all for you
You know
You know you do
Tell me what you're after
Tell me who told you to run
Maybe we will never grow up
And maybe no one really does
Tell me what it feels like
Tell me what it feels like to be
Tangled in your real life
There's no way out for you and me
Do you ever wonder if it's all for you
Nobody else I know can crash and burn the way you do
Do you ever wonder if it's all for you
You know
You know you do
And I think you know it like I do
Tell me what it feels like
Tell me what it feels like to be
You know
Tell me what it feels like
And I think you know it like I do
You know
Do you ever wonder if it's all for you
Nobody else I know can crash and burn the way you do
Do you ever wonder if it's all for you
You know
You know you do
Tell me what it feels like
Tell me what it feels like to be
The prettiest nothing
In a place that no one can see
Say it if you want it
Say you're gonna take it and run
Say it if you need it
Oh may tomorrow never come

If we're lucky no one sees us and
I'll be honest
That the difference between us
Is a conscience
I'm a last resort
And if that's what I'll always be
Then maybe just this once
I can appreciate the honesty
Let me go if you can
Send me home if you've ever wanted to
This very moment is in your hands
If you destroy it then it can't haunt you
This will be the one
You'll remember when you're older
This is what you've done
There are devils on your shoulders
Hopefully no one believes this
But I can't promise
That no has seen what
They've got on us
And I'll be the difference
And you'll be the end
There's just some things
That deserve to be condemned
Let me go if you can
Send me home if you've ever wanted to
This very moment is in your hand
If you destroy it then it can't haunt you
This will be the one
You'll remember when you're older
This is what you've done
There are devils on your shoulders

Where's your after all
When we're all rich I'll call you
And you'll ignore it
All the best
I'll see you when I do
Make room for everything that
You don't believe in
Just like me
And maybe just like you
Where's your after all
Where are the broken hearted
You left out there in the darkness
Where's your after all
Where is your Sunday morning
Some things might be worth ignoring
I'll be a memory yeah
And if I'm lucky
You won't know
Just who you're thinking of
We'll all be centuries and
We'll all start over
No regrets
There will never be enough
Where's your after all
Where are the broken hearted
You left out there in the darkness
Where's your after all
Where is your Sunday morning
Some things might be worth ignoring

They'll paint me on your shoulder
This bloodshot sunset soldier
This is the first day of
Your own little war
I'll do it if you want to
If these regrets won't haunt you
Ain't it a lovely night to break down the door
All dressed up for no one aren't we
The darkest little corner of the room
Three's a crowd and your own army
Giving up is not enough when we're all stuck here too
One by one
We were not all born to run
One by one
We'll all start to forget it
Crash land from upstairs rafters
Wake up the morning after
You'll leave me with the scars
So don't forget me too
All dressed up for no one aren't we
The darkest little corner of the room
Three's a crowd and your own army
Giving up is not enough when we're all stuck here too
One by one
We we're not all born to run
One by one
We'll all start to forget it
Black out your golden hour
Black out your golden hour
I'll do it if you want to
If these regrets won't haunt you
I'll do it if you want to
If these regrets won't haunt you.
One by one
We were not all born to run
One by one
We'll all start to forget it
