tell me the tale of heroes past
of saints and sinners
priests and whores
where life was simple
and you were there
tell me the tales from distant shores
don't save yourself
you're already dead
got a hole in your head
you should have listened to what she said
cause you're already dead
you could destroy anything
tell us the tale of how you lived
and i'll tell you the way that i intend
to carve a beginning from your end
she's my southern gal
she loves her whiskey and cigarettes
don't give up on me now
you're the reason i want to drown
broken words
they feel like broken dreams
we're treading water in the dark
or so it seems
i took our record off the shelf
i took a piece of what was left
it's too late to say you're sorry
i wish i could save you
but you're already dead
fight the future
drink down your past
we're treading water and this ship is sinking fast
forever drowning
oh i hope this feeling lasts
save me from the sea
don't let these waves bury me
we're treading water
you could destroy anything
the pain that you wrap yourself in so tight means everything
to you and i think it's time
to remember what it's all about
and that there's nothing you can do
but get the story out

it all sounds like broken hymnals
forgotten love
out of tune
the shadows lurking beneath our bones
will never spell defeat but God his grace i'll sing
make up your mind
cause we're all out of time
waiting for you to decide
where is the line
this story needs a better hero
i can't go on like this forever
i wasn't made to live forever
you've played
this game
for far too long
maybe
not everything
could be that easy
death
oh my God he's coming
i will show no fear
make up your mind
cause we're all out of time
waiting for you to decide
where is the line?
this story needs a better hero
i can't go on like this forever
i wasn't meant to live forever

five words
that's all it ever took
to change my life and turn this town upside down
i heard the call
i read the news
oh God, can you feel it
lost in the glass
emotions were high
i'll show them all
send me love
send me hate
send me into the pit
our problems looked so small from above
what can you do when you lose everything you've ever known
i've seen this once before, number two
who could know that i own this town
knights of columbus
i've never felt so loved in my life
this never made any sense
i don't know what went wrong
and there we were
surrounded by darkness on every side
when we figured the only way out was to fight so we took up our weapons and we went to battle
through the smoke and the fire and the mud I could see our fearless hero leading us on to victory and it was then that i realized that i'd rather die than be number two
what went wrong?
we have no one to blame but ourselves stay classy san diego
may you always be the greatest town
don't you ever bring a grenade to a knife fight
don't you ever forget who you are
you're brick

Disbelieving The Truth
02:57

this just got personal
you dance on the graves of the ones you've ruined
we've all flown south while you feast on the bones of the weak
who have you fooled?
'you know you can tell me the truth'
means that i've already caught you
it's clear to see
i'll never take you alive
so unfortunately that means you'll have to
you slice me up
and throw me away with the sound
of your silence
polluting your words
now you might think me bias
but this lack of solidarity
isn't something i'll fight for
what defines us behind these walls
tell me this ends
i can't bare to watch another second
tell me you love me
feed me those empty words
then tear me to shreds
i think they're catching on
but if you just keep trying
you know everybody is convinced at some point
oh God
pray for rain
pray for tears
the jaws lock tight
i can read you like a book
don't you lie
the lovers
they got lost on the shadows of their own mistakes
i can read you like a book
to pass the time
i'll go between the lines
and show you what it's like
to really tell a lie
tell me this ends
i can't bare to watch another second
tell me you love me
feed me those empty words
then tear me to shreds
i think they're catching on
but if you just keep trying
you know everybody is convinced at some point
tell me this ends
i can't bare to watch another second
tear me to shreds
you'll say anything
but i'm still not convinced

death's got your number
angst has your heart
this town is all in black when you're dressed in white
sunday's finest
the devil's dress
you burn your bridges but you'll never burn your past
this will not change
if you refuse to embrace
the truth you've laid to waste
it's more than i can take
you lie motionless
you were only prepared for the beginning of it
you lie motionless
you play to win
look at the mess your in
you've been running for days
but couldn't hide
how you've ripped all the whites
from their innocent eyes
and the last words off your lips were
"dead men don't sin"
pass the gun
drink your poison
there was a time when everything i thought was the light was really a lie
my brain has been fixed the entire time
i don't exist
this isn't you
i am a lie
this will not change
if you refuse to embrace
the truth you've laid to waste
it's more than i can take
you lie motionless
you were only prepared for the beginning of it
you lie motionless

either we're breaking hearts
or we're breaking bones
either way we get the job done
we'll find a way to get out of here
you look so sad
when your insides
are out in the open
for everyone to see
call the doctor
stitch you up
you obviously have bigger problems than we thought
you don't deserve even my revenge
i don't care what impression was on top of you
because it's long overdue
now you're just stalling for details
and you know where the heart is
but just can't see
so i'll thank you to leave now
you're here just in time
the show's about to start
you better wipe that smile from your face
or i'll do it for you
don't say goodbye
my pride's on my sleeve, i'm in love with the lies
hell on my face you mistake for surprise
quick, hit the lights before we collapse from the inside
why can't you see
why can't you say
that nothing leads to nothing but heartache
right or wrong
everything felt so wrong
tales from distant shores
this fiction we explore
you opened up your mouth, but when you spoke no words come out
i gave you a book to hold on to your mistakes
take them out far beyond such voyaged seas and let them drift ashore and find themselves impossibly far from me

The Monarch

we fight the dark with flames and teeth but we open our eyes
don't let the king drag you back to the ground
don't take the lies
sing the song to save your shadow
we are saved by the grace of the broken
i am mine no more
free from the crown
never again
off with their heads
the sun will come out, so they say
maybe the sun will not come out after all
how could we let this fall apart?
i thought i could see clearly
but apparently
my mistake was letting you live to see another day
don't make the same mistake
bring me the throne
bring me the crown
take all i have
send me back to the ground
oh king, what have you done?
you took a throne that you didn't have any claim to
but now it's too late
you can't undue the things you've done wrong, after tonight
your kingdom forged in blood will fall
the future is ours
