Lyrics


1.BOY DIVISION

If all my enemies threw a party
Would you light the candles
Would you drink the wine
While watching television
Watch the animals
All the tragedies
Sell your arteries
And buy my casket gown

It better be black
It better be tight
It better be just my size
I'm stalking these metro malls
And airport halls
And all these schoolgirls say
I'm not asking
You're not telling
He's not dead he only looks that

Way out nowhere
Take me out there
Far away and save me from my
Self destruction
Hopeless for ya
Sing a song for California

I buy my enemies rope to hang me
And the knives to gang me
You can watch them stab me
On your television
Stalk the halls
Because the bathroom walls
Would have a lot to say
About the lines you're putting down

It better be white
It better be cut
It better be just my size
Until my capillaries burst from boredom
I'll be waiting
I'm not laughing
You're not joking
I'm not dead, I only dress that

Way out nowhere
Take me out there
Far away and save me from my
Self destruction
Hopeless for ya
Sing a song for California

Wherever you are
Wherever you are
Whoever you are
Whoever you are

We got the bomb, we got the bomb, let's go
We got the bomb, we got the bomb, let's go
We got the bomb, we got the bomb, let's go
We got the bomb, we got the bomb, let's go

Way out nowhere
Take me out there
Far away and save me from my
Self destruction
Hopeless for ya
Say a prayer for California

We got the bomb
We got the bomb
We got the bomb


2.TOMOROW'S MONEY

Fell in love with a vampire
You want to get it for free
Say hello to the brush fire
You want to take it from me
I'm gonna take it from you
Say hello to the good times
Burning up in the sun
You're sitting back on an empire
While the world lays back
Puts a kid behind that gun

If we crash this time
They got machines to keep us alive
When the mixtape lies
Choke down the words with no meaning
I stopped bleeding 3 years ago
While you keep screaming for revolution
Me and my surgeons and my street walking friends
We got no heroes cause our heroes are dead

Say hello to the program
They're gonna give it for free
Hook up the vein to the antibodies
And cut it with the disease
I'm gonna give it to you
Put on your smile for the good times
You're loaded up with the fame
You're dressing up like a virus
But the words get lost when we all look the same

If we crash this time
They got machines to keep us alive
When the mixtape lies
Choke down the words with no meaning
I stopped bleeding 3 years ago
While you keep screaming for revolution
Me and my surgeons and my street walking friends
We got no heroes cause our heroes are dead

You fell in love with a vampire
A torch-song for the empire
So say hello to the brush fire
The microphone's got a tap wire
[x2]

If we crash this time
They got machines to keep us alive
While the army wives
Choke down a war with no meaning
I stopped bleeding 3 years ago
While you keep screaming for revolution
Because rebellion's not a t-shirt you sell
You keep your money and I'll see you in hell


3.AMBULANCE

You don't know a thing about this life
And we are up for everything it takes to prove we're not the Same as them
And we will wear our masks again out after dark
'Cause we are up for everything it takes and we are not the Same

'Cause we are not afraid
And we are not ashamed

And if you save my life
I'll be the one who drives you home tonight
And if they ever let you down
I'll be the one who drives you home tonight

Remember, once you walked this kind of life
Quietly I'll slip behind the wheel and passing every face you see
The first time, sticking every piece as you walk by
Proving that with all of my mistakes that we are not the Same

'Cause we are not the same
And we are all to blame

And if you save my life
I'll be the one who drives you home tonight
And if they ever let you down
I'll be the one who drives you home tonight
You home tonight

It's dropping you down
It's dropping you down
It's dropping you down
It's dropping you down
It's dropping you down
'Cause it's dropping you down
And it's dropping you
Dropping you down

You don't know a thing about this life
And you don't know a thing about this life
And you don't know a thing about this life
'Cause you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing

And if you save my life
I'll be the one who drives you home tonight
If they ever let you down
I'll be the one who drives you home tonight
You home tonight
Drives you home tonight

'Cause it's dropping you down
'Cause it's dropping you down
'Cause it's dropping you down
'Cause it's dropping you
Dropping you
Dropping you down


4.GUN

We could get somebody else, but we want someone like you) [x6]

Well, as soon as I get my gun
I’ll point it out the window at the setting sun
As soon as I get my gun
I’ll tell you all about it when you fall in love
As soon as I get my gun
I’m gonna make a call
Well as soon as I get my gun
Get my gun

Well the uniform isn’t fun
They make it like we give ‘em out to anyone
As soon as we get your gun
A pocket full of pistol is a lot of fun
It’s just the kind of place we run
Because the government
Because the government wants your gun
Wants your gun, whoa

Well, if I’m old enough to die for your mistakes
Then let’s go
Can we bleed enough to fill up what the engine takes?
We don’t know
But if you’re watching, up above
They’re teaching me to kill
Who’s teaching me to love?
Now baby
Isn’t it crazy?

Well as soon as I’ve got my gun (as soon as I’ve got my gun)
Put me on vacation underneath the sun
As soon as I get my gun (as soon as I’ve got my gun)
I’ll holler and flash it at my belting blood
Out on the sand
We’re like a hold from a IED
‘Cause I’m holding up my gun
Holding up my gun
Yeah

And if I’m old enough to die for your mistakes
Then let’s go
Can we bleed enough to fill up what the engine takes?
We don’t know
And if you’re watching, up above
They’re teaching me to kill
Who’s teaching me to love?
Now baby
Isn’t it crazy?

As soon as I get my gun
(Don’t even have a gun!)

As soon as I get my gun
(Don’t even have a gun!)

As soon as I get my G - U - N
(Don’t even have a gun!)

I’m standing out in the S - U - N
(Don’t even have a gun!)

I’m never gonna have a son
(Don’t even have a gun!)

She’s never gonna have a son
(Don’t even have a gun!)

I’m never gonna have a S - O - N
And now I’m never gonna have a S - O - N

And if I’m old enough to die for your mistakes
Then let’s go
Can I bleed enough to fill up what the engine takes?
We don’t know
And if you’re watching, up above
They’re teaching me to kill
Who’s teaching me to love?
Now baby
Isn’t it crazy?

As soon as I get my gun
(Don’t even have a gun)
[x7]

Well, as soon as I
As soon as I get my gun.


5.THE WORLD IS UGLY

Are you thinking of him?
The world is ugly
And you wanted me to go.
I just wanted you to know

That the world is ugly,
But you're beautiful to me.
Are you thinking of me?
Are you thinking of him?

You can say I told you so
If you wanted me to go.
I just wanted you to know

That the world is ugly,
But you're beautiful to me.
Are you thinking of me?
Are you thinking of him?

You can say I told you so
If you wanted me to go.
I just wanted you to know

That the world is ugly,
But you're beautiful to me.
Are you thinking of me?
Can we both be ugly?
Are you thinking I'm the one?
We could fight it to the end.
I just wanna hold your hand.
And you're probably just too good.
I just wanted you to know.


6.THE LIGHT BEHIND YOUR EYES

So long to all of my friends,
Everyone of them met tragic ends,
With every passing day,
I’d be lying if I didn’t say,
That I miss them all tonight

And if they only knew,
What I would say,
If I could be with you tonight
I would sing you to sleep,
Never let them take the light behind your eyes
One day, I’ll lose this fight
As we fade in the dark,
Just remember you will always burn as bright

Be strong, and hold my hand.
Time becomes for us, you’ll understand.
We’ll say goodbye today,
And we’re sorry how it ends this way
If you promise not to cry,
Then I'll tell you just what I would say.

If I could be with you tonight,
I would sing you to sleep,
Never let them take the light behind your eyes.
I’ll fail and lose this fight,
Never fade in the dark
Just remember that you will always burn as bright.

The light behind your eyes…
The light behind your

Sometimes we must grow stronger
And, you can’t be stronger in the dark.
When I’m here, no longer,
You must be stronger and

If I could be with you tonight,
I would sing you to sleep,
Never let them take the light behind your eyes.
I failed and lost this fight,
Never fade in the dark,
Just remember you will always burn as bright.

The light behind your eyes…
The light behind your eyes…
The light behind your eyes…
The light behind your eyes…

The light behind your eyes…
The light behind your eyes…
The light behind your eyes…
The light behind your eyes…
The light behind your eyes…
The light behind your eyes…


7.KISS THE RING

Hey, hey

We kill the girls to get paid
And put the whole damn room on the edge of the blade
You'll get far, stay clean
And if the world stops believing, I'll keep believing
That the world could make a change
And put the suicide dolls as the last ones to mate
Come hard, stay clean
Singing songs for the damned now

Hail, hail
'Cause the king is gone
And if you don't stop believing, we'll keep believing
You put the record on
And live the life that you're making
Shots that you're taking
So grab the cash and run
And let the suits watch each other kill one another
It doesn't matter if the words don't mean a thing
You're gonna kiss that ring

Well, alright

Black the walls, keep the faith
There ain't a dry eye left in the back of the place
Is it hard to stay clean?
And if you all keep believing, I'll keep believing
That the world drives the saints
Put the shotgun shells in the hills it makes
So come hard, stay clean
Because they don't give a damn now

Hail, hail
'Cause the king is gone
And if you don't stop believing, we'll keep believing
You got your leather on
And live the life that you're making
Shots that you're taking
It doesn't matter if the words don't mean a thing
You gotta kiss that ring

Hail, hail 'cause the king is gone
Hail, hail 'cause the king is gone
Hail, hail 'cause the king is gone
Hail, hail 'cause the king is, the king is gone

'Cause the king is gone
And if you don't stop believing, we'll keep believing
And get your leather on
And live the life that you're making
Shots that you're taking
So grab the cash and run
And let the suits watch each other kill one another
It doesn't matter if the words don't mean a thing

Fist up, head down
Hail, hail to the king


8.MAKE ROOM!!!!

Make room! Make room!
Down on the coffin there's a coffin or two,
Dead chic, so cool,
The cannibals are starving when they're looking at you.

Tank tops, jet stream,
Karate lessons with a killing machine.
White lines, nose bleeds,
I know you get exited when the cameras go
(Ra-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta)

Me and you and all of this living dead
Burning up in the sun where the bodies add
Sitting here with you in misery
Anybody gonna come and rescue me?
La la la

Alright
Whoah!

Make room! Make room!
One day you'll gonna have explaining to do.
Drag star, so cool,
There's only room for one man and the one is you, you, you

Me and you and all of these living dead,
Burning up in the sun where the bodies add
Got a taste for cash and androgyny
Anybody wanna come and rescue me?!

Alright, oh oh oh oh
Well alright [x7]
She's alright
Everybody in the room is alright

Everybody wants to change the world!
Everybody wants to change the world!
But no one, no one wants to die!
[x3]

We are never gonna change the world!
We are never gonna change the world!
'Cause we are never gonna DIE!

Everybody wants to change the world!
Everybody wants to change the world!
But no one, no one wants to die!
[x4]

MAKE ROOM!!!!


9.SURRENDER THE NIGHT

Everyone’s a passenger tonight
Just another accident to long a freeway of this life.
We drove on, and on, and on, and on.
We drove on, and on, and
I'll remember this night when you’re gone

You surrender your heart,
I surrender every dream,
Every weapon you've got,
Every secret that I keep,
You can fight this all you want,
But tonight belongs to...

Just another surgery tonight,
Well if you amputate the loneliness,
The anesthesia dims the lights
So dream on, and on, and on, and on.
So dream on, and on, and
I'll remember your eyes when you’re gone

You surrender your heart,
I surrender every dream,
Every weapon you've got,
Every secret that I keep,
You can fight this all you want,
But tonight belongs to me

While I watch you in your sleep
'Cause tonight belongs to me
You can fight this all you want
But tonight belongs to...

Sparks against the railing
Distant phantom's swelling
Who the windshield's selling
With this air that's felling now

You surrender your heart,
I surrender every dream,
Every weapon you've got,
Every secret that I keep,
You can fight this all you want,
But tonight belongs to me

While I watch you in your sleep
You can fight this all you want
But tonight belongs to me
But tonight belongs to me
But tonight belongs to me


10.BURN BRIGHT

So give me all you’ve got,
I can take it.
We've walked alone in your city lights.
Did you make it?
We lit the fire and it’s burning bright.
Did you take it?
Kissed all the boys in your city lights.
Did you make it?
Left all the stars in your city nights.
Can you fake it?
I lost my way in your city lights.
Clutching me,
Restore the fire, and it’s burning bright.

So give me all you’ve got,
I can take it.
We walked around in your city lights,
‘Cause it makes me who I am.
We lit the fire, and it’s burning bright.
Not ashamed of what I am,
I took the pills for these empty nights,
‘Cause it makes me who I am.

They always told me that you never get to heaven,
With a love like yours.
Well if you’re lost little boy,
Oh they'll give us both a ride back down, yeah
It’s like a chemical burn,
Peeling off your skin, yeah
And when you see your face
Well you’ll never be the same again, yeah.

‘Cause if you just stop breathing,
I'll stop, I'll stop my heart,
I’ll stop breathing too.

So give me all you’ve got,
I can take it.
We walked around in your city lights,
‘Cause it makes me who I am.
We lit the fire, and it’s burning bright.
Not ashamed of what I am,
I’d trade the world for your city nights.
‘Cause it makes me who I am.

And it makes me who I am.
And it makes me who I am.

And though I missed the chance with this,
I confess that I can’t wait until it’s gone.
Though I mean this every single day.
Don't go if you've got more to say,
‘Cause the world don’t need another hopeless cause.
Though it makes me who I am,
‘Cause it makes me who I am.
And you made me who I am,
And you made me who I am,
Be afraid of what I am.

I can take it.
We walked around in your city lights,
‘Cause it makes me who I am.
I'll wreck it all, and I’ll do it fine.
‘Cause I’ll never fade away,
If I steal the fire from your city nights.
‘Cause it makes me who I am.
Who I am.
