I'm not really good at making decisions
I crashed my car into a wall once just to see how it felt
And the result was just me landing up in a neck brace and feeling
Very sorry for myself
For the longest time
I put myself on the line
Knowing full well that gambling could ruin my life
The chances I take

Sitting in the back seat of a car that isn't moving
I watched an old man walk towards his grave
And time it seemed to stop as all the seconds felt like hours
Then I watched him turn and walk the other way
Somewhere someone has bad news for their 2D former lover
For years now they just haven't felt the same
And time it seemed to stop as all the seconds felt like hours
As they watched the colour leave their lover's face

Ignore all the voices inside you that tell you that life in itself is too hard
The reality pill's hard to swallow
But don't let those voices take charge
You've been complaining for too many years
And the people who love you are aware of your fears
So don't be the boy who cried wolf
They'll ignore all your tears
Be prepared to surrender advice

God only gives the biggest battles to His strongest soldiers
And I know that I don't know much, but that seems unfair
I didn't get to choose my own measure of logic
And I know that I don't know much, but it seems unfair that they
They were each assigned a code
It really makes a difference that I got to learn these lessons on my own
Voices of animosity and fear
All seem to live inside my inner ear

Batten down the hatches, love before we see the skies above lay waste to all the nature that we've claimed
The rainclouds are collecting fast, the precipitation of our past will soak the ones we want to name and shame
Correct me if I'm wrong, my friend, but I thought the world was due to end and maybe that's the reason for all this change
But watching the world fall apart is enough to break a grown mans heart, I really want the world to love again
I never wanted dinosaurs to go extinct
We've been through forest being flattened
We've been through oceans drying up
We've been through earthquakes shaking continents that usually aren't shook up

You can't ignore the darkness in your bedroom
When you're the one that flipped the switch to make it dark
Fear is such a simple complication
But it's one we have to fear with all our hearts
And life can seem impossible when you're living in a shell
You could be the barnacle or you could be the whale
Give yourself a purpose and you'll always fall in love with what you are
You're a product of the world

There's rumours going round
The devil's smiling ear to ear
And the damage has been done
Your guilty conscience, just like always, got the best of you
And now you've gone and said too much
It's difficult to reach your goals when your stepping stones are tortured souls
And the end, the end's so far away
You'd stab the back of any man who'd lend us each a helping hand

Seven hours and six minutes ago
I convinced myself I have the worlds best ideas
But I can't just go tell everyone that I know
To entrust is not as simple as trusting your peers
My shoulders are ripe for the weight of the world
And I hand pick the leaves off the seeds that we've sown
Because pruning a sapling will only help it to grow
And to minimise our chewing, we cut our meat straight to the bone

Let's shake hands
Let's shake hands
Let's agree on a deal where we both benefit
And then let's smile
Let's smile when our faces won't let us
Life's a trick
It's magic
We'll take this bunch of roses and set it on fire a sacrifice made

I remember finding out that Santa Claus was fake
And since that day I've nursed a broken heart
It's not the fact that we're all raised on lies that makes me angry
It's the lies we're told that set us all apart
It's the lies we're told that set us all apart
We're often putting too much faith into the sky
When it rains we'll only end up wet
I watched the weather, there's a good chance there'll be lightning

I'd like to explain where I am coming from
It's not actually such a dark and lonely place
And even though it seems I've given up it seems I actually stand a chance within this rat race, I think
It's like watching sport your team is losing
And all of a sudden you're an expert at the rules
But it doesn't make a difference 'cause you can't control who'll ever win or lose
I'm often staring at myself, I'm wondering what the hell went wrong
I've become this shitty punchline of a joke that's way too long

Grab a bucket and mop
Because I completely forgot
That we spilled red wine all over the floor
Last night we went too far from our house to the bar
And then back home again for some more
And I haven't smiled quite as much as I have for a while
When you and me take on the world
And I know that I'm not all you want in a man

Have you ever had a conversation with a tree?
They're friendlier than buildings and they're wiser than the sea
I mean, imagine standing upright for a century
And learning all the secrets of the world
I visited the forest once to find
The oldest tree I could so he could open up my mind
And I poured us each a glass of fancy wine
And sat beneath the whisper of his leaves

We fight for glory
We fight for sin
We fight for everything that we've been force to believe in
And I've never been one to waste my emotions
But I, I've never held a heart before
We fight for nothing
We fight for more
We fight for everything that we've never fought for before

Just like a piece of glass, buried in the sand
I will try and avoid you as long as I can
But I know that one day I'll take you the wrong step and I'll find you
And hopefully this time I'm wearing shoes
I'm under prepared
Fragile and scared
I'm taking a dive on the shortest of breaths
But the air in my throat gives me hope that I won't
