It's perfect and violent
Rearrange and conjure fear
Selfish and manic
They've taken arms and led us here
Get out of the way
Prepare this place for oblivion
Erase all we've stood for, all that we are, will ever be
You were always safe 'till now (safe 'till now)
Couldn't catch your fall straight down
Scatter the failed parts of your life (of your life)
Could have had two kids and a wife
Your life will only be a lie
Once you kill the monster inside
We are what haunts us at night
Afraid to leave the candle burning all day
Scared it might empty our brains
That was never my concern
On holidays, you'll come crawling back
Our little boy is turning blue
He never got enough oxygen
Warn the doctor, we're coming soon
You went off alone
You went off alone again
You're not on your own
They may look like mannequins
There's no running from
There's no running from the sun
There's no safety here
Just blistered skin from ear to ear
I saw the sun was rising
Just leave it in, just leave it in
Another day is coming
Let's just pretend, let's just pretend
We are eight again and the world is ours
These dreams are ours
Instead we can't imagine a single one (a single one)
We can't imagine a sinlge one
Why do we stretch how we're feeling (we're feeling)
No one cared enough to take pity
The moon is taking watch of the sky (of the sky)
While the sun sleeps through the night
Your life will only be a lie
Once you kill the monster inside
We are what haunts us at night
Afraid to leave the candle burning all day
Scared it might empty our brains
That was never my concern
On holidays, you'll come crawling back
Our little boy is turning blue
He never got enough oxygen
Warn the doctor, we're coming soon
It's perfect and violent
Rearrange and conjure fear
Selfish and manic
They've taken arms and led us here
Get out of the way
Prepare this place for oblivion
Erase all we've stood for, all that we are, will ever be
