Lyrics

[00:34.860] I can't blame you
[00:36.720]
[00:38.610] I can't save you
[00:41.850] But I will try
[00:43.120] For you and I
[00:46.990] For you and I
[00:49.400] I won't find out
[00:52.240] All the dirty little things that you've done
[00:55.650] But I will try
[00:57.270]
[01:03.820] I'm coming for you giants and you liars
[01:06.250] And your chariots of fire
[01:08.490] You charmers with your anecdotes
[01:10.510] Have started to show your true colors
[01:14.570]
[01:18.630] Now I’m staring at the moon
[01:22.150] Wondering why the bottom fell out
[01:25.660] And searching for answers
[01:27.150] And it’s questions I found
[01:29.720] Open you eyes, and share this burden somehow
[01:33.660] Are you ready to drink
[01:35.100] Or are you waiting to drown
[01:38.680]
[01:44.870] I would break you
[01:46.880]
[01:48.440] Before I let you
[01:51.520] Fall into a blind
[01:53.090] For you and I
[01:57.060] For you and I
[01:59.620] I will breath in
[02:01.670] All the truth I can stomach
[02:04.760]
[02:05.400] If it keeps you alive
[02:07.210]
[02:13.960] We've changed the dreamers and
[02:15.380] the preachers and the wise men on the hill
[02:18.400] To concrete stepping smilers
[02:20.020] Terrified to lose their power and control
[02:27.080]
[02:30.050] We've been crying for a leader
[02:32.160] To speak like the old prophets
[02:34.440] The blood of the forgotten wasn't spilled without a purpose
[02:38.430] Or was it?
[02:40.180]
[02:46.190] Now I’m staring at the moon
[02:48.490] Wondering why the bottom fell out
[02:51.630] And searching for answers
[02:53.110] And it’s questions I found
[02:55.710] Open you eyes, and share this burden somehow
[02:59.660] Are you ready to drink
[03:01.000] Or are you waiting to drown
[03:04.490]
[03:35.360] You'll never be whole
[03:37.520] You'll never be whole
[03:41.020] Until you lose control
[03:43.290] And think freely to smash the wall of apathy
[03:46.510] Stop your self-importance and
[03:48.350] lift the weight off somebody else
[03:51.320] You'll never be whole
[03:53.330] You'll never be whole
[03:56.520]
[03:57.050] Until you lose control
[03:59.150] And stop drinking the wine, that's been dripping
[04:02.170] From lips of the gluttons and envying their bloody teeth
[04:07.260] You'll never be whole
[04:09.310] You'll never be whole
[04:12.890] Until you lose control
