We were safe, now we're paralyzed
Suspended in flight
At this speed it makes no difference
Where I start or where I end
Or if you're sitting in an emergency aisle

We could be dead, complete the equation
Our names are x and n
We have no value in these calculations

Placed on a plane pointed straight down
Traveling at five hundred feet per second
Five thousand feet from the ground

The leaves will fall
And so will you
When you do, bury me under them too
Seconds pass; well make it through
Eventually we all go home
It wont be long
It wont be long

We walk along the wire tied between horizons
You close your eyes like its nothing at all
Throughout the rise and fall, everything, everything
Changes, I will be here when you die

It wont be long
It wont be long

5-4-3-2-1 lets start a fire.
Burn this town from inside out.
Til' no one's left alive.
And you cant feel the rhythm of your steps when you hit the street.
Sixteen's so far away from here, when youre counting every step.

5-4-3-2 what are you waiting for?
The train is catching up, keep on running dont look back.
Cause its 1

We stare into the blinding light
to see what's between us
it's red and it's white
like lies, lipstick on last-look good-byes the substance
assimilating to watch the bodies burst into a string of lights
when there's nothing left the party crashes and the ring comes out from all the jacket pockets into
the blinding light

the fire is dying out

There was a sound
Split all the heavens apart
In on the northern view
Out on the southern spark

Oh I'll be with you running from the rain
When it reaches the end of the line
See myself reflected on the broken glass
As the gates come crashing down
There is blood on the tracks tonight
And rust inside our veins
We will make it time before the storm
Running behind me

What have you done?
You followed footsteps in the dark
You found your faith
Left out behind your fathers car
You said, theres no one watching over me, over you its always out of reach

Im sick instead, write it into
Oh my God, where are we now?
Fractured lies
Dissolving like sugar in the sacrament

If it was just one night
Then we would be relieved

Tie this knot between our teeth

She's the song that you tried to sing
And the note that you couldn't hit
So you locked her up in a music box
Turn the key on all of us
She spins silver strings in the dark
With metal teeth that ring in her heart
When the cover drops
The world just fades

Away, away, away from her
Waiting, waiting, waiting for her
To say it
K-I-S-S, I'm in distress!
I need someone to spell it out

Sitting alone in the dark of the stadium
He whispers his secrets into a cheap guitar
With the flick of his wrist he turns words into melodies
Chords into church bells, that fill up the alleys
where lovers entwine in the heat of the night
And by dawn are apart in the shivering silences
We will pretend that its all just made up..

The songs that he writes
Are too personal

The lights go down, outside
Before our cars collide
And so we silhouette ourselves
For these shades of fire

Do you know where this is leading?
I will meet you there
On the other side of the crash
On the other side of the glass

All our friends are falling out
Cant look us in the eye
Were there to hear that broken sound
Happens when were

All alone inside
In the middle of the night

We walk alone
Till the end of night
It's suicide
But we will overcome

Another life
Swinging in the breeze
The southern trees
And the strangest route

Follow the path, the straight and narrow (hand and hand)
Our roads are paved with broken arrows
We will overcome
We will overcome

Our fathers plant arms in foreign soil
Our brothers die
No one knows
