1. I Can't Stop Play
I Can't Stop
I walked down to the street
Watched my mind walk away from me
I tried to follow
It’s just so hard to see where it’s going

Oh oh oh
Do you know?
Oh oh oh
Where did my head go?

Stand back I can’t stop
Stumble off the block
I can hardly walk
Stand back I can’t stop

My brain took off in a taxi
I’ve got no change to catch a ride
This space right here draws me near
my hand is out they look me down
I’ll wait it out it never gets too far

Oh oh oh
Do you know?
Oh oh oh
Where did my head go?

Stand back I can’t stop
Stumble off the block
I can hardly walk
Stand back I can’t stop

I just can’t shake it and you’re taking me no where now
Oh I can’t shake it and you’re taking me nowhere no oh

Stop
Stumble off the block
I can hardly walk
Stand back I can’t stop
Lyrics
2. The Sweetness Play
The Sweetness
I like to touch you, I like to pull
I like to push you under the soleil
I like to hurt you, I like when you scream
I like it, oh it’s just not what it seems

It’s the sweetness
Oh it’s the sweetness
Oh it’s the sweetness
Oh it’s the sweetness
Oh you’re so sweet

You like the motion, you like the roll
You like your shoulders pushed into the floor
Fix on the floor cause you needed the taste
You like it, oh it’s all over your face

It’s the sweetness
Oh it’s the sweetness
Oh it’s the sweetness
Oh it’s the sweetness
Oh you’re so sweet

I will lift you off the ground
And release you

It’s the sweetness
Oh it’s the sweetness
Oh it’s the sweetness
Oh it’s the sweetness
Oh you’re so sweet

I will lift you off the ground and release you
Lyrics
3. Apache Play
Apache
I’m sticking out like a shout on the sideline
Hot on the spot, gonna let it show
Soft leather skirt and your beat up stockings
You’re stuck with your luck and your luck is low
Roll me over
Roll me with those white eyes

Well you say this world spins too slow
And we know this love has just been sold

Hey goldilocks on the clock in your castle
Boat for the moat, throw down your hair
Ride up the vine an electric skyline
Follow the trail, you don’t know where
Let it go
Let it go, it’s a life line

You say this world spins too slow
And we know this love has just been sold
Lyrics
4. Glitter Not Gold
Glitter Not Gold
You’re electric with your sunken eyes
It’s takes you one hit to put you in the sky
And all you have is your innocence
And all you need is a ghost

You know and I know
If you go then I go where you go
You set my skull on fire

It’s so tragic every time you try
So pathetic with your cocaine smile
And all you have is your innocence
And all you need is the most

You know and I know
If you go then I go where you go
You set my skull on fire

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
It’s glitter it’s not gold
But that’s not what you were told
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
It’s glitter it’s not gold, but that’s not what you were

You know and I know
If you go then I go where you go
You set my skull on fire
Lyrics
5. Perfect World
Perfect World
Made it in and we’re here agin
In the place where ti always ends
You say, what happens now?
In my mind you take it all
Push you up against the wall
You scream, it gets you off

You can feel me
You can read my mind
It’s alright
Just this time
I’ll make you think you’re mine

Hold me I cannot stand
To watch from the dark again
Hold me up and I’ll hold you up
Is there a perfect world?
This just seems so much worse
Hold me up and I’ll hold you up

Pour it out and I drink it down
Hear your voice and turn around
You say, what happens now
In my mind we’re glued together
Tied in binds with rusted teathers
I scream, get me out

No you can’t know me
You can’t read my mind
It’s alright
Again this time
I’ll never make you mine

Hold me I cannot stand
To watch from the dark again
Hold me up and I’ll hold you up
Is there a perfect world?
This just seems so much worse
Hold me up and I’ll hold you up

Don’t hold me too tight
Don’t turn on the light
This night is not over
Don’t tell me your soft
I can’t turn this off
This night is not over
Just let it happen

Hold me I cannot stand
To watch from the dark again
Hold me up and I’ll hold you up
Is there a perfect world?
This just seems so much worse
Hold me up and I’ll hold you up
Lyrics
6. Glow
Glow
This broken step
This low lit room
This tired clock
Shines red light through
And I’m alright

Then down the hall
I hear you breath
I know you’re there
Though I can’t see
And I’m alright

I’ll let you go
I’ll let you go
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You start to glow
From head to toe
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

The sails are down
The rip tide sea
Tears apart
The hull and Beam
And I’m alright

Then through the dark
It’s all I see
A lighthouse
Like sun to me
And I’m alright

I’ll let you go
I’ll let you go
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You start to glow
From head to toe
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

You know I can’t stay
So give me away
And you know if you cannot handle it
You can keep that light house fire lit

I’ll let you go
I’ll let you go
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You start to glow
From head to toe
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Lyrics
7. Dance On Your Grave
Dance On Your Grave
I never thought you’d kiss and tell
You said you’d take it to your grave
You got us all under your spell
I bet you thought you had it made

Oh oh oh thought that I could take it
Oh oh oh Never thought you faked it
Oh oh oh you had to go and spread it?
Oh oh oh now I know where you are headed

I’m gonna dance on your grave
Because the dead can’t talk
The dead can’t talk
Don’t mention the war
And the war won’t stop
The war won’t stop

I’m gonna watch you sink or swim
Tie bricks onto your heels
I guess it’s better you than me
I’m gonna watch you take the heat

Oh oh oh thought that I could take it
Oh oh oh Never thought you faked it
Oh oh oh you had to go and spread it?
Oh oh oh now I know where you are headed

I’m gonna dance on your grave
Because the dead can’t talk
The dead can’t talk
Don’t mention the war
And the war won’t stop
The war won’t stop
Lyrics
8. Hillside Ballroom
Hillside Ballroom
Hesitate
This hillside ballroom starts to dissipate and dislocate
A broken heart
This night time high is driven off, I got stood up

Still can’t taste the wine, sweeter on the vine
Dirty hands, not coming clean

Sigh, sigh help me out in here
Lie whisper in my ear

It’s a lonely ride
Behind the doors where all the people hide, start the slide
Empty space
Light alone won’t fill this place
Fuck this place

Lines upon the skin, changing from within
Tired eyes, won’t go blind

Sigh, sigh help me out in here
Lie whisper in my ear
And when I fall will anybody hear
Sigh, help me out in

Sigh, sigh help me out in here
Lie whisper in my ear
And when I fall will anybody hear
Sigh, help me out in
Lyrics
9. Down In A Hole
Down In A Hole
I’ll be the sunlight
You be the rain in the sky
I’ll be correction
You be mistakes from old times
I’ll be direction
You be the broken down sign
I’ll be tomorrow
But tomorrow we’re old and gone

Down in your hole
You dig through the ground
Your eyes like a mole
You see with sound
Oh no down in your hole

You be the morning
I’ll be the night fall at nine(9)
You be solution
I’ll be distraction and lies
You are tomorrow
But tomorrow we’re old and gone

Down in your hole
You dig through the ground
Your eyes like a mole
You see with sound
Oh no down in your hole
Lyrics
10. Took So Long
Took So Long
These eyes have seen enough
To know when it’s time to stop
And these hands can’t hold you up
They’re much too old , they’re much too rough

I’m part of the background
Down in the shadow
You see my reflection
In the water and in the light

You can see me now
In my darkest hour
And you smile

C’mon what took so long to fall in love?
What took so long to find my heart?
What took so long to fall apart?

These days have come and gone
With so much love and so much hurt
But your eyes remain the same
They just get deeper, they just get soft

And you can see me now
In my darkest Hour
You smile

C’mon what took so long to fall in love?
What took so long to find my heart?
What took so long to fall apart?

1. Beautiful Is Gone Play
Beautiful Is Gone
Our love has come so far but not at all / I remember the start you can’t recall / By the time it was right you didn’t want to fall / If it’s over say it’s over / Blindly I let you destroy me / Love is not so beautiful when your lungs are caving in / And beautiful is gone / Oh don’t lie to me when we both know baby beautiful is gone / I pushed you so hard but not at all / You closed your eyes / I could see it all / Run out the door see no more of you and what you do
/ Blindly I let you destroy me / Love is not so beautiful when your lungs are caving in and beautiful is gone / Oh don’t lie to me when we both know baby / Beautiful is gone / Beautiful is gone / What’s in store now that you have shut the door? / Peek in through the open crack / I can’t keep from crawling back for more / Crawling back for more / Say its over if it’s over / Blindly I let you destroy me / Love is not so beautiful when your lungs are caving in and beautiful is gone / Oh don’t lie to me when we both know baby / Beautiful is gone

Lyrics
2. Collide Play
Collide
You know I won’t start taking pictures until the trip is done / You know I won’t stop blowing kisses at everyone / It’s not where we are it’s where we’re going that gets me inside / Right where the heart and the headache where they collide / Straight to the heart of the problem but the damage is done / I pick up the phone call the medics but they never come / Swept under the rug where no one can see / I’ve already lost a small part of me / Take what you want / No please just take what you need / Love pull me / Love heal me / Oh how she comes when we collide / Not now you’ll say this is the game we play / And our love comes when we collide / It drives us apart, this attraction / It wont be our fault / Stand with your feet on the stairway but you never walk / When will you move / Leave here for good / Can’t break the strings that you never could / It’s all that you want / Its all that you need / Love pull me / Love heal me / Our love comes when we collide / Not now you say / This is the game we play / Our love comes when we collide / Can you feel it / Can you heal it / No? / Love pull me and love it heals me / Our love comes when we collide / Not now you say / This is how the game is played / Our love comes when we collide
Lyrics
3. Time & Place Play
Time & Place
Look up, don’t you look down / This place is above / Not below the ground / The time is here / The clock is run down / The dreaming is over / Not awake but somehow I’m found / Enough, did I do enough? / A lifetime of hiding catching up / It really caught up / If this is the light on my face / If this is the time and the place / Then I can look back on my days and know that I’ve been there / So now, in the light of this hour / All the ones that I’ve touched and I loved have gathered around / I wish they could see what I see now / They’d never believe what I see now / If they only knew what I found out there / If this is the light on my face / If this is the time and the place / Then I can look back on my days and know that I’ve been there / Wish they could see what I see now/ They’d never believe what I see now/ This is the light on my face / This is the time and the place / Then I can look back on my days and know that I’ve been there / And how can’t you love what’s been done and how can’t you love when you’ve moved someone / If that’s all I have when I’m done / Then let me begin there / Let me begin there
Lyrics
4. Come Here Come On
Come Here Come On
Oh no oh no you just can’t hide your surprise / When I tell you / Oh no oh no you just can’t pretend it’s alright when I ask you / Come here c’mon and take it away / Come here if you’ve got nothing to say / Come here I’ll make you afraid / I don’t want to find another you / I don’t want to find another you / Oh no no / It’s no surprise / Open your eyes / Feel the abuse / All the temptations / All the sensations / Give me some truth / Come here c’mon and take it away / Come here if you’ve got nothing to say / Come here I’ll make you afraid / I don’t want to find another you / I don’t want to find another you / Breaking in two is so hard to do / But easier than to return again / I don’t want to find another you / I don’t want to find another you

Lyrics
5. Satellite
Satellite
Can you hold on to your child as the sun sets in your eyes and you face those darkened skies / Can you hold on? / But he will push away to make his great escape / There’s nothing you can say / Won’t you hold on? / You will see, see him bleed / You can’t pave the path he made / Satellite flying high / Won’t you come on down / Down to the ground / The tighter that you squeeze / The more he craves release / He’s asking you please / Can you hold on? / But he will push you away to make his great escape / There’s nothing you can say / Won’t you hold on? / You will see, see him bleed / You can’t pave the path he made / Satellite flying high / Won’t you come on down / Down to the ground / Can you hold on to your child / As the sun sets in your eyes / And you face those darkened skies / Can you hold on? / You will see, see him bleed / You can’t pave the path he made / Down to the ground / Satellite flying high / Won’t you come on down / Down to the ground
Lyrics
6. Sit Down Stare Out
Sit Down Stare Out
As the elevator rises to the 13th floor I ride and I’m holding on for life / Should I step out? / Should I get out and knock on your door tonight? / While you’re laughing out inside / Because what you see in me Is nothing but a shadow of what I see in you I lie awake while dreaming / Pretend to hear you breathing / Pretend I’m not alone / But I’m without you and I can barely breathe when I’m without you / So I drop my hands down to my side and run downstairs hoping that you didn’t see me / and sit down stare out at the numbers on your door / Drive off, forget to remember you some more / What you see in me is nothing but a shadow of what I see in you / I lie awake while dreaming / Pretend to hear you breathing / Pretend I’m not alone / But I’m without you and I can barely breathe when I’m without you / When I’m without you / Rescue me / So I drop my hands down to my side and then I start to run / So I drop my hands down to my side and then I start to run / Run / What you see in me is nothing but a shadow of what I see in you / I lie awake while dreaming / Pretend to hear you breathing / Pretend I’m not alone / But I’m without you and I can barely breathe when I’m without you
Lyrics
7. Monochrome
Monochrome
Slow down / We’re gonna take our time and make this right / Drag out / Everything that’s eating at your mind / So I deceived you cause I can’t believe you and now I’ve turned the tide / So monochrome / I watched the color drain from you / Where’s the color in this life? / Watch me doing all you’ve always feared / Just try and stop me / Pulling all the strings I can from here / So I deceived you oh / So monochrome / I watched the color drain from you / Where’s the color in this life / So monochrome / I took all I feared in you and that you must despise / It feels so good not to need you / It feels so good not to need you / But it’s so sad to watch you fall / Cause I took it all / So I deceived you cause I can’t believe you and now I’ve turned the tide / So monochrome / I watched the color drain from you / Where’s the color in this life? / So monochrome / I took all I feared in you and that you must despise
Lyrics
8. Swallow You
Swallow You
I’M UP, I KEEP WAKING UP IN THE DARK

LET IT SWALLOW YOU
TAKE THIS SORROW
LET IT SWALLOW YOU
TAKE THIS SORROW
LET IT SWALLOW YOU
TAKE THIS SORROW

Lyrics
9. Contagious
Contagious
THE HARDEST PART OF GIVING UP
IS NOT KNOWING WHEN YOU’RE DONE
I USED TO THINK I WAS TOUGH ENOUGH
TO LAST FOREVER, TO CALL YOUR BLUFF

SO HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN YOU’RE DONE
WHEN THE BATTLE AT HAND JUST CAN’T BE WON

THIS HURT IS CONTAGIOUS
AND ONLY TIME WILL SAVE US
NEVER ALONE
I CAN’T GIVE YOU ALL AWAY
NEVER ALONE
WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO MAKE YOU STAY
STAY, STAY

IT’S THE DAMAGED START I HAVE TO STOP
ALL THE TIME IT TOOK TO FIND OUT WHO WE ARE
MY GUILT ASSURED FOR MY PART
I BEAR FOREVER I CAN’T HIDE THIS SCAR

SO HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN IT’S DONE
WHEN THE BATTLE AT HAND JUST CAN’T BE WON

THIS HURT IS CONTAGIOUS
AND ONLY TIME WILL SAVE US
NEVER ALONE
I CAN’T GIVE YOU ALL AWAY
NEVER ALONE
WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO MAKE YOU STAY
STAY, STAY

YOU TOOK THE TIME TO WRITE ME OFF
YOU HELD ME CLOSE YOU MADE ME SOFT
NOW I AM FALLING APART
I BLURRED THE LINE AND YOU TOOK IT ALL
A DYING SIGN, THERE’S NOTHING LEFT AT ALL

THIS HURT IS CONTAGIOUS
THIS HURT IS CONTAGIOUS

THIS HURT IS CONTAGIOUS
(AND I CAN’T GIVE YOU ALL AWAY…)
AND ONLY TIME WILL SAVE US
(AND I CAN’T GIVE YOU ALL AWAY…)
NEVER ALONE
I CAN’T GIVE YOU ALL AWAY
NEVER ALONE
WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO MAKE YOU STAY
Lyrics
10. Crazy Girl (Ne M'oubliez Pas)
Crazy Girl (Ne M'oubliez Pas)
I WAS TRASHED IN THE UNDERGROUND
YOU WERE ALONE
IT WAS FAST, YOU WERE DIRTY THEN
YOU TOOK ME HOME
THROUGH THE BACK DOOR
YOU PULLED ME DOWNSTAIRS
YOU TOOK IT ALL OFF, THEN YOU DISAPPEARED

NOW THE TASTE OF YOU IS
BURNED INTO MY HEAD
AND NOW IM TURNED AROUND
I NEVER LEFT YOUR BED

ON A LONELY NIGHT
WITH A CRAZY GIRL
DID HE FEEL ALRIGHT?
WHEN YOU KILLED THE WORLD

IM WAITING, IM WATCHING WALLS,
WHAT DID I HEAR?
AM I JUST PARANOID?
COULD IT BE ALL THAT I FEAR?
I CLIMB UPSTAIRS, SLIDE OPEN THE DOOR
WHO IS THAT IN YOU WHILE YOU BEG FOR MORE


NOW THAT SIGHT OF YOU IS
BURNED INTO MY HEAD
THROUGH THE WINDOW,
GUESS IM GOING HOME INSTEAD


ON A LONELY NIGHT
WITH A CRAZY GIRL
DID HE FEEL ALRIGHT?
WHEN YOU KILLED THE WORLD

THE END IS HERE BUT I’LL BE ALRIGHT
THE END IS HERE BUT I’LL BE ALRIGHT

THE END IS HERE BUT I’LL BE ALRIGHT
THE END IS HERE BUT I’LL BE ALRIGHT

THE END IS HERE BUT I’LL BE ALRIGHT
THE END IS HERE BUT I’LL BE ALRIGHT

ON A LONELY NIGHT
WITH A CRAZY GIRL
DID HE FEEL ALRIGHT?
WHEN YOU KILLED THE WORLD

ON A LONELY NIGHT
WITH A CRAZY GIRL
DID HE FEEL ALRIGHT?
WHEN YOU KILLED THE WORLD
Lyrics
11. Midnight In The City
Midnight In The City
I’VE NEVER SEEN YOU SO SAD
WHAT HAPPENED ANYWAY?
DID HE MAKE YOU PAY TODAY?

I’VE NEVER WANTED YOU SO BAD
JUST SOMETHING IN YOU
PUSHING ME AWAY

THE MORE YOU PUSH
THE MORE I CRAVE YOU
THE MORE YOU PUSH…

JUST TAKE YOUR COAT AND LEAVE YOUR CLOTHES
MIDNIGHT IN THE CITY
BREAK THE SKIN, RELIEVE THE SIN
MIDNIGHT IN THE CITY

BEEN ON THIS BLOCK BEFORE
I KNOW THIS DIRTY STREET
WHAT IT MEANT TO ME

TO GET INSIDE YOUR DOOR
TINY LITTLE ROOM
WAS EVERYTHING I NEED

OH THE MORE YOU PUSH….

JUST TAKE YOUR COAT AND LEAVE YOUR CLOTHES
MIDNIGHT IN THE CITY
BREAK THE SKIN, RELIEVE THE SIN
MIDNIGHT IN THE CITY
SHE’LL SWALLOW YOU WHOLE
THERE’S NO WHERE ELSE TO GO
OH NO WHERE ELSE TO GO

JUST TAKE YOUR COAT BUT LEAVE YOUR CLOTHES
MIDNIGHT IN THE CITY
BREAK THE SKIN, RELIEVE THE SKIN
MIDNIGHT IN THE CITY
JUST TAKE YOUR COAT BUT LEAVE YOUR CLOTHES
MIDNIGHT IN THE CITY
BREAK THE SKIN, RE-LIVE YOUR SINS
MIDNIGHT IN THE CITY
Lyrics
Armed with the new album Midnight in the City, THE RUSE is taking the Los Angeles rock scene to new heights. Improving upon and expanding on the two distinct sounds of their first two albums, these boys have truly delivered their strongest record to date. From the punky new wave opener, Beautiful is Gone, to the classic rock swagger of the title track, Midnight in the City, THE RUSE takes their listeners out for a night on the town and doesn't bring them home until the sun comes up.

"If you're going to legally purchase one album this year, make it Midnight in the City." - Carly Steel, Young Hollywood

1. Everything Comes with a Price
Everything Comes with a Price
And it takes a dive to the riverbed
And the darkness comes you lose your head
When it all collides it tears a hole inside
And the road is long to the end of time
It's a wave you ride or at least you try
When all you've got is time you just let it ride

And everything comes with a price
But how much can you sacrifice
You feel when you win you still lose
And no one else is in your shoes

And the drive is long to god knows where
You've lost your mind but now you just don't care
The numbers on the signs are everywhere

And everything comes with a price
But how much can you sacrifice
You feel when you win you still lose
And no one else is in your shoes

It's a bold idea to watch the angels sing
You sit back and laugh to hide the state you're in
Can you win?

And everything comes with a price
But how much can you sacrifice
You feel when you win you still lose
And no one else is in your shoes
Lyrics
2. Swallow You
Swallow You
I'm up
I keep waking up in the dark
Just trying to stare down time all night
Cause it's tough when you're left alone with your heart
And it's the only constant sound all night
Around
Does it ever come around?
Can I get back over ground tonight?
Oh oh it's you
Oh oh it's only you

Take this sorrow let it swallow you

I'm stuck
Is it love if there's no pain?
When that's all that's left inside it's all right
Around
Does it ever come around?
Can I get back over ground tonight?
Oh oh it's you
Oh oh it's only you

Take this sorrow let it swallow you

The feelings in the pain
It's tearing through my veins
I watched the world beneath me fall
Do you feel anything at all?
Can you feel anything at all?

Take this sorrow let it swallow you

Cause it's tough when you're left alone with your heart
And it's the only constant sound all night

Lyrics
3. All I've Done
All I've Done
ALL I'VE DONE

Not the same this time
It's the lasting bind
No circles and no smoke
No burning bridge no sinking ship
Just the whispers and the moans
And all this love is burning
The holes of life and learning how
All I've done leads me back to you

Loss of innocence and it won't be missed
This is more than lust you know
And the love runs deep when two people meet
But there's so much ground to go
And all this love is burning
The holes of pain and yearning now
All I've done leads me back to you
All I've won takes me back to you

This is all I've done
Look how far we've come
This is all I've done
Lyrics
4. Devil in the Girl
Devil in the Girl
I'm tied to you like a drifter to the night
Looking for a small town to make everything all right
I'll follow you down a cracked and dusty road
Headed off to nowhere where no one wants to go

And you can take it all
And you can own this soul

I'm tied to you like muscle to the bone
You know I've always been a drifter but you're like coming home
And I'll follow you through the fire to the light
Through the river to the gates where day becomes the night

And you can take it all
You can own this soul
Just tell me you'd be made complete
If you know it you can own it

To crush this stone
Keep pushing these bones
The stories have been told
The same old ending never grows old

Another deep groove in the wall
How many times will I fall?

You can take it all
If you want it
You can own this soul
If you want it
Just tell me you'd be made complete
If you know it you can own it
Lyrics
5. Light You Up
Light You Up
I'm stuck in between what I have, what I want, and what I know
It comes in a dream that every night I can't stop
I'm just taking time to know
Which way should I go?

To light you up
And bring you out
I've had enough
Just show me how
To light you up

I'm falling into what I love from what I hate it's what I need
Tell me it's true the beautiful life I used to see
So I'm taking time to know
Which way should I go?

To light you up
And bring you out
I've had enough
I've had enough
Lyrics
6. The Situation
The Situation
I'd surrender everything I've made
I'd forgive you if you put me in my grave
I can't deny the memories I save
Not satisfied there's so much left I crave

You chose the silent road
I'll take the one back home

Don't release me don't ever let it go
All this distance we'll never let it show
To survive and hide in the obscene
To describe the situation we're now in

You chose the silent road
I'll take the one back home
Don't take the time to plead
You're not the one I need

When you give too much you find
You cannot ask in kind
And all that I gave
Is all you could take
With nothing in between
Except the scenes
Or so it seems

The situation we're now in
When you won't come out from within
And I won't be the one to fall, to fall, to fall
Lyrics
7. Goodbye
Goodbye
Everything has changed
Nothing's quite the same
The world I knew so well
Is under a brand new spell

You made your moments last
Left us with quite a task
The life you lived so well
Into its arms you fell

And I only miss what I couldn't fix
I only miss

Oh it's time
For us to say goodbye
And tear this world apart
When will it start?

The sorry cycle came
To take your soul and name
The ones you loved and hurt
Now blind your eyes with dirt

And I couldn't cry when I whispered goodbye
I couldn't cry

Oh it's time
To let the strings unwind
And tear this world apart
When will it start?
Oh it's time
For us to say goodbye
And leave this world
You can leave this world

I can feel you
But I can't heel you
Wipe those tears from your eyes

Lyrics
8. Alone
Alone
I need to hear you say that you love me
But you can't say
Why did I play that game of chances
Now you drift away

And when I get home
Will you be alone

I had to make the decision
I had to carry that burden stone
Left you alone
How'd we lose the connection
How could you just let it go
You never let me know

And when I get home
Will you be alone

Crumbling down
The walls come crumbling down
They crash with out a sound

And when I get home
Will you be alone
Lyrics
9. Don't Let it Fade Away
Don't Let it Fade Away
Let's start again
How can I save my soul
Can we begin
How can we make it home
I don't even understand
When do we break our plan
It's coming

Show me places nobody fears
Fallen faces can't wipe away tears
Fade away
You'll never fade away
Everyday
Don't let it fade away

Let's take control
Where do we draw the line
We move too slow
Stuck in another time
Don't even make a sound
Maybe we'll bring this down

Show me places nobody fears
Fallen faces can't wipe away tears
Fade away
You'll never fade away
Everyday
Don't let it fade away
Lyrics
10. Hold Tight
Hold Tight
Standing on this ledge with a bottle and a notion
And I've done this before to block out the commotion
And I'll repent, and I'll forget
How I even got here
And I'll shut down to stop the sound
It's never really over

Hold tight
It's not easy to be following your lead
Hold Tight
Cause I'm down on my knees so eager to please

When I walk through these streets watching all the motion
I know you done this before with a young mans devotion
And did you repent, and did you forget
How you even got there
And did you shut down to stop the sound
Is this ever really over

Am I still my father's son
In this man I have become

Hold tight
It's not easy to be following your lead
Hold tight
Cause I'm down on my knees so eager to please

Am I what I think I am
In this man, this brother, this son

Through the driving rain
Through the blinding snow
Through the scorching heat we'll go

When does it end?
When will this pass
You made these hands
I hope they last
