Giving someone something to change
Should probably wait until you're sober
Even if they're saying the same thing to you
Wait until you're sober
​
You don't have to travel the world
To know it's cold in Minnesota
Remember how it feels at the start
It's just the same as when it's over
​
After all the damage is done
And all the tension here is broken
Even if they close up the wound
It's still gonna sting as if it's open
Die Young
Don't touch
Keep your motherfucking hands off
My black box
Pill pop
Giving every little dream up
It's your life
Well all my heroes
Broke their mirrors
So shall I
​
They live fast
Die young
​
Don't cry
Numb yourself until the sunrise
It's your life
Locked up
Oh, my prison is a tour bus
Killing time
Well all my heroes
Broke their mirrors
So shall I
​
They live fast
Die young
Dangerous Indeed
She's been known to leave a voicemail
On eggshells, careful as can be
He's been known to lose his temper
When he's hammered, snaps so easily
But she sees him in her own light
He's a white knight
She's in danger
He's dangerous indeed
​
She's a goddess in her own right, lonely
He's a car with the lights off, tearing through the dark
They're less now than the sum of their parts
He don't mean everything he says
She can smell an apology on his breath
And even if he wanted to
He's doing what he's gotta do
​
She sees him in her own light
When he doesn't do right, she's scared
Scared to run away
One day he'll take it too far
And as good as you are, you knew
He's dangerous indeed
​
Seen enough to know the signs here
The way she hides tears, the bruises on her skin
Just look me in the eye dear,
And feed my ears the lies you tell your friends
But she sees him in her own light
He's a white knight
She's in danger
He's dangerous indeed
​
She's a goddess in her of right, lonely
She's a fish in the water, swimming with a shark
He's eaten every one of their hearts
He don't mean everything he says
She can smell an apology on his breath
And even if he wanted to
He's doing what he's gotta do
​
She sees him in her own light
When he doesn't do right, she's scared
Scared to run away
One day he'll take it too far
And as good as you are, you knew
He's dangerous indeed
The Howl
Got a little lean from the heartbreak
Let's shake this up, keep straight dodging us
A catalyst for blowing up
The key to making nothing feel like something
Get it, got it, good, now move on
There's time enough for everyone
​
Keep all that hate coming my way
Straight to the mouth of the wolf
You get the howl
Take all that shit to the highway
No one can tell you the truth
You get the howl
Crying like a child
And howling like a wolf
​
You came up from the inside and tore it all apart
For fun, I know, wish you could have said so
It's tough to be original
Maybe had a little love in it at the start
But then, I came, and through it out the window
You said it like we'll never know
​
Keep all that hate coming my way
Straight to the mouth of the wolf
You get the howl
Take all that shit to the highway
No one can tell you the truth
You get the howl
Crying like a child
And howling like a wolf
Marching Off to War
Eating off their plates
To feed the things that you hate
Crawling in your skin
The lines they painted you in
Marching off to war today
​
Turned you into bone
To fight and carried you home
Servants to the royals
Your blood forsaken for oil
Marching off to war today
India
India
The center of the new round world
A journey only taken by the brave
Christopher
Discoverer of wealth untold
Echoes of the news float back from Spain
All this gold will soon be mine to take
​
Those savages must be bold
They're trying to to keep me from my gold
I think not this time
God damn, this is the promised land
This is the promised land
They'll pry it from my cold dead hands
​
Indians
Reject the hand of the king
A fever grips them for their heresy
Colonies
Our way of planting the seed
God is what these wild natives need
God forgive the conqueror in me
​
Those savages must be bold
They're trying to to keep me from my gold
I think not this time
God damn, this is the promised land
This is the promised land
They'll pry it from my cold dead hands
​
Nina
We're going back to the sea
For a while, we'll let these people be
Governors
However long we're apart
The colonies are always in my heart
I'll bring back a thousand ships to start
Son of Virtue
Your hair does look lovely
Your skin looks soft
You're here now, like you used to be
An eternity ago
And before you leave, I think you should know that
​
These words are gonna get me in trouble
But you can't keep haunting me no more
You should know what you borrowed
Now it's time to give me back my soul
No I ain't gonna touch you
No I'm not in love with you no more
I don't eat with the vultures
You can try to shake me to my core
​
But I never claimed to be the son of virtue
And I'm innocent of anything that hurts you
If blame was a mountain
I'd climb to the top
I'm no son of virtue anymore
​
You're tempting, so desperate
Your words feel so hollow
You hear that? Bouncing off the wall
Making no impact at all
I'm sick and tired of the shit you talk
​
These words are gonna get me in trouble
But you can't keep haunting me no more
You should know what you borrowed
Now it's time to give me back my soul
No I ain't gonna touch you
No I'm not in love with you no more
I don't eat with the vultures
You can try to shake me to my core
​
But I never claimed to be the son of virtue
And I'm innocent of anything that hurts you
If blame was a mountain
I'd climb to the top
I'm no son of virtue anymore
After the Fall
Well someday I'll set out on my own
I'll wean from the bottle and leave all my sorrows at home
And one day I, well I will be old
I'll look back on these days and be glad for the stories I told
​
No I won't hold back at all
If you'll be here after the fall
​
Well all these nights get out of control
And nobody's yelling can stop me when I'm on a roll
I won't forget, what you live with you leave
And the company you keep is a part of the air that you breathe
​
No I won't hold back at all
If you'll be here after the fall
It's All Over Now
We can feel a lot in just a short amount of days
But only if we change
Only if we change
We can see the coast enough to know it's all the same
It's all just sand and waves
All just sand and waves
​
Love can find you, redesign you
Rob you blind, you'll see
That it's not me
It's not me
​
You say to let it go
To go for eternity
It's all over now
The end of what we used to be
It took the two of us
To learn how to part the sea
It's all over now
The water's crashing over me
​
There used to be a time when I could read what's in your head
It's all you ever said
All you ever said
Now I feel alone when I've been sleeping in your bed
We're hanging by a thread
Hanging by a thread
​
All these stumbles, breaks, and crumbles
Wear you down, you'll see
That it's not me
It's not me
​
You say to let it go
To go for eternity
It's all over now
The end of what we used to be
It took the two of us
To learn how to part the sea
It's all over now
The water's crashing over me
Slow Down
Keep up, or slow down
If you stop, we drown
It's tough to know how
You use us, I know now
Cool off, calm down
Fall in, sell out
And go, if you have to
When you do, it's on you
It's on you
​
You can say it's okay
I can't work for no pay
Keep the money we made
Keep the money we made
Hope it makes you fill up
All the things you dream of
If you want it so much
If I leave then so what
​
I don't need your plans to follow my dreams
Cause nowadays they write themselves
You don't need me here to stroke your ego
You seem to do that fine yourself
​
You wanted the power
You got it, so now what?
Treat all the people
You call friends as equals
​
You can say it's okay
I can't work for no pay
Keep the money we made
Keep the money we made
Hope it makes you fill up
All the things you dream of
If you want it so much
If I leave then so what
​
I don't need your plans to follow my dreams
Cause nowadays they write themselves
You don't need me here to stroke your ego
You seem to do that fine yourself
Isotope
Try to heed the warning signs
It's a slippery slope
Got her neutrons out of line
She's an isotope
Fold 'em, she's gonna win
She's holding you ransom
Everything she says
Is breaking you down some
​
Hold on if you can
She's ready to blow
​
All the people all the time
Tried to tell you so
You're the victim, she's the crime
Guess you missed that boat
Now she's got you good
She's holding you in tight
You can't always win
By being the good guy
​
Hold on if you can
She's ready to blow
​
You can keep the flowers, you can keep the vase
I'll let you go, I'll let you go
You can keep the books and you can keep the case
I'll let you go, I'll let you go
You can keep the car and you can keep the place
I'll let you go, I'll let you go
You can keep your whole life filling up with hate
I'll let you go, I'll let you
​
Try to heed the warning signs
It's a slippery slope
Carbon neutrons out of line
She's an isotope
Your unholy mess is waiting in my home
All this common sense, surrendered to my soul
​
Hold on if you can
She's ready to blow
​
Don't do this, no promises
Don't do it, no promises
Do this, no promises
Don't do it
Youth & Truth
Oh, foolish is the man who waits for love
Oh, and foolish is his bride
Oh, foolish are the kids that they bring up
Oh, to relive their foolish lives
​
We become our father's words
And open up a franchise
Peddling the thoughts we heard
As promises of perfect bloodlines
It's an education
The economy of swiping right
Covering our faces up
And finding love with pickup lines
​
Your only shot at love
Is operational
So get your profile up
And take what you've been dreaming of
It's only inside
You've got your feelings right
​
You become a mockingbird
Parroting the love lines
Giving every girl your word that
She's your perfect ray of sunshine
It's a little game now
Casting messages as fishing rods
Find someone to take the vow
And live like you're suburban gods
​
Your only shot at love
Is operational
So get your profile up
And take what you've been dreaming of
It's only inside
You've got your feelings right
