AUGUST BURNS RED LYRICS

1. Chasing The Dragon

Living in a world of regrets.
You never wanted this and you never will [x2]
Watching your mirror image, drowning in a lake of your own sorrows, your own sorrows.
But we will pray, that you will pray, you will look toward the skies.
Look toward the skies, which covers you, like blankets, and see his open arms.
Look toward the skies.
Look toward the skies.

You claim, you claim you were built to fall.
You were never strong enough.

You claim, you claim you were built to fall.
You were never strong enough.

Heroin has no healing to this unfortunate tragedy.
Don't stray from what you've become now, to who you were then.
With a needle in your arm.
Now affection has abandoned you, can you still feel.
Now affection has abandoned you, can you still feel.
Hold on!
Hold on, don't you die.
Hold on, don't you die on me.
Living in a world of regrets you never wanted this and you never will.
You claim you were built to fall, you were never strong enough.
You claim you were built to fall, you were never strong enough.
Save yourself.

You claim, you claim you were built to fall, you were never strong enough.
You claim, you claim you were built to fall, you were never strong enough.

2. Mosley

It all happened so fast.
Speeding off into the distance.
That night I wish you could have taken control.
To steer clear from your last breath.
Such a short 18 years, gone in the blink of an eye.
Oxygen is escaping.
Your fate is embracing.
This road tells a story of a life cut short.
Sirens are the sound that I hear in the back of my mind.
You leaving this world left us falling apart limb by limb.
Never getting over the loss of a loved one.
That morning we all stood mourning, coming to terms with this reality.
I believed the world stopped spinning.
To steer clear from your last breath.
Such a short 18 years, now gone.
I wish you could see me now.
You'd be so proud, my dearest friend.
I'll see you again, my dearest friend.

3. Carol Of The Bells

4. To Those About To Rock

5. Piano Man

6. The Truth Of A Liar (Demo)

Allow what's done to preach new insight to your life.
Hindsight is perfect vision.
The past is easiest to see.
Clear a path.
Stand aside.
We're carrying the torch now. [x2]
Clear a path.
Stand aside.

There's no stopping us.

Clear a path.
Stand aside.
We're carrying the torch now.

Clear a path.
Stand aside.

There's no stopping us.
You might think you're everything to everyone.
Go ahead.
Partake in it.
Justify it.
Become engulfed in it.
It will eat you alive.
This is not a one way road.
You're headed for the dead end. [x4]
You might think you're everything to everyone.
Well pardon me if I intrude.

You might think you,re everything to everyone.
You're not a perfect man in a perfect world.
Look at where your ignorance has brought you.
All this will be buried.
Like the fall of Rome.

You will come crashing down.
The truth hurts, but denial's what will kill you. [x4]
All that you loved, all that you treasure, will pass with time.
Blinded by the inability to see beyond flesh and blood. [x2]
Shifting blame with a log in your eye.
Insisting that a string tied to your limbs is what's to blame.
Suck it up and bite the bullet.

7. Vital Signs (Demo)

This building barley standing on its own foundation. [x2]
I've collapsed its lungs, calloused its heart sucked the life out of this, for all of Sunday to see. [x2]

I've collapsed its lungs, calloused its heart sucked the life out of this, for all of Sunday to see. [x2]
Every little thing they believe, they believe.

I've taken the breath out of everything they stand for.

Everything they hold true.
Preaching to the deaf and blind, no one sees my effort.
Preaching to the deaf and blind, no one gets the point.

No one sees my effort, no one gets the point.
Welcome to my dying home.
Welcome inside these crumbling walls.
A meaningless handshake greets them all with smiles of false hope.

Welcome to my dying home.
Welcome inside these crumbling walls.
A meaningless handshake greets them all with smiles of false hope.
Do I even care as I watch a sea of people dwindling into an audience of skin and bones -- an audience who doesn't have the strength to walk out on a man who has tarnished their faith?

I've collapsed its lungs, calloused its heart sucked the life out of this, for all of Sunday to see.[x2]
I've collapsed its lungs, calloused its heart sucked the life out of this, for all of Sunday to see.[x2]

Preaching to the deaf and blind, no one sees my effort.
Preaching to the deaf and blind, no one gets the point.
