All you boys and girls
You’re not just diamonds and pearls
It’d really be a shame
If your death didn’t make a name
Everybody sitting in the crowd
Raise your voice and fucking loud
I know what you’re thinking about
So come on now fucking shout
Come on hey yeah
Here we go now hey
Here we go now
So give me something that you want
Better not fucking take
‘Cause it’s not like I just stay here
Not for very long
So give me something that you want
Better not fucking take
‘Cause it’s not like I just stay here
Not for very long

Ocean

We fear today, a world without change
Our real ideals, becoming so pained
The memories I lack, that i don't want back
'Cause i'm hating, this time
I feel it now coming, I’ll tell you what I want
To put out this rogue fire, and catch a free ride home
I see it in your eyes, and I know that we’re not close
We made it to the ocean
To find it out here, today
That we must save ourselves
We made it to the ocean
To find it out here, today
That we must save ourselves
Pasting up the posters, in the back of our minds
Empty head, cheap decorations are forcing us blind
And closing the doors, open your legs and pockets
You’ll be pleased to find, that happiness will be on sale
For a limited time
I feel it now coming, I’ll tell you what I want
To put out this rogue fire, and catch a free ride home
I see it in your eyes, and I know that we’re not close
We made it to the ocean
To find it out here, today
That we must save ourselves
We made it to the ocean
To find it out here, today
That we must save ourselves
We made it to the ocean
To find it out here, today
That we must save ourselves
We made it to the ocean
To find it out here, today
That we must save ourselves
We made it to
We made it to the ocean
The ocean, oh I know
The ocean, the ocean

Summer Of Decay

I used to know you
But you have changed
You used to speak to me
Now I feel estranged
Couldn't get closer
I wanted things
But my anger
Held back by my heartstrings
Another day
In the summer of decay
I lost my love, I lost my way
Still I lie in bed and blame
All the people and the things
i could've changed, I’m feeling feeble
‘Cause when the moment it starts to rain
I’ll live my summer out again
From the backbeat of my heart
My love for you, tears me apart
I’m trapped inside, sun cannot help
I went away to wreck myself
Endless summer will it go on
Will you love me when I am gone
A little hope helps me with pain
A chance to speak to you again
It be a long time
Before i feel sun shine
I know that
It’s wrong to try
But my reasons
That you don't seem to buy
There's no explaining
So I still live like this
Another day
In the summer of decay
I lost my love, I lost my way
Still i lie in bed and blame
All the people and the things
I could've changed, I’m feeling feeble
‘Cause when the moment it starts to rain
I’ll live my summer out again
Slow the beating of my heart
I'm left to tear myself apart
I gotta know just where to start
To live my summer without a heart
I must start searching so I am found
I spent my summer on the ground
Open my eyes and step outside
The endless summer's a free ride

Revelations

Words can’t describe
The way I feel
I’m not trying to hurt you
Intentionally
I know that it hurts
But I try so hard
And it’s only getting worse
Right from the very start
From the start
From the start
From the start
It’s happening again
We’re always so close
Even when we’re far
It’s only with you
The closest person I know
Tell me anything
Everything
Now come away
Come away
I’m waiting on the corner
I try to speak your name
Who am I to blame
It’s always the fucking same
I’m holding onto meaning
When there’s nothing to hold onto
Well I
I really love you
I really love you
Even through all
Of this mess
I will always hold
You so close
The memories we’ve shared
Are unlike any other
I haven’t had time to say this
But let’s go
Let’s go
So tell me why (tell me why)
You had to cry (you had to cry)
And make me wanna die
So tell me why (tell me why)
You had to cry (you had to cry)
And make me wanna die
I’m waiting on the corner
I try to speak your name
Who am I to blame
It’s always the fucking same
I’m holding onto meaning
When there’s nothing to hold onto
Well I
I really love you
I really love you
