BRINGING DOWN BROADWAY LYRICS

1. Intro

[Instrumental]

2. Barely There

Wasting away,
your drifting through life with an attitude,
take a look at yourself,
and all that you have become
pick up your feet, lace up those shoes,
and it's just so simple when you're on a roll,
but have you stopped to think,
that you have no control?
when you're all alone, and on your own,
will it make a difference?
will you even skip a beat?
racing through life in the fast lane, your heart will be beating,
your heart will be bleeding red,
I won't stand by you,
and watch you burn yourself all over again,
tracing your footsteps backwards,
to the place we once called home,
do you remember?
do you even care to try to get it right?
so drag your heels right through the mud,
so that you can say that you've done all that you could,
by a show of hands,
how many of you have never sinned?
Then cast the first stone
I'm standing here,
I'm living proof,
if you just trust in me,
then you may see a beauty
I'm screaming out these words I speak,
Take them to your heart,
or take them to your grave,
because in the end,
everything will slowly change

3. 1927

One day Broadway's theater became reality,
when they started killing entertainment,
living in a world of hatred, consumed by the daily papers,
they're crying tears of sorrow, like there's no tomorrow
yet it feels good to bring back the chaos to it's rightful place,
to where it always belonged,
with eyes so red, they're burning, burning red,
in their hearts, in their head,
you're playing with fire, you're playing with the dead
stoning what's left of the purity, this took place down Broadway,
where the boys were born, where the boys will stay,
with an east coast hunger for that west coast fame,
what happened too your love? what happened to your name?
(take a hold of your soul before you give it away)
is this the world we live in? is it the one we've created?
with our two hands... with our own flesh and blood?
those who have come before us,
would be so ashamed to know.
we love our brothers,
but can't stop killing our own
(is this the world we live in?)
I'm feeling lost... I'm feeling used,
father God show me the way home,
give me a sign, drop me the line
I want to be more like you

4. Eternal Journey

We won't let this,
let this chance slip away,
When we are, we are so far,
and getting, getting closer,
We're cleaning up, and clearing out,
We're growing up, and breaking out,
This time we're going to, were going to clean the floor.
This is our moment, we're going to give it all we got,
It's our time to shine, and nothing is going to stop us now.
Remove your hands from our face, so we can see this eye to eye,
and know that we have nothing to fear.
You are my eternal journey, oh were will it go?
I'm standing at the edge of your shore,
waiting for the tidal wave
to come crashing down.
Carry us away, into your arms,
here we are washing away all our shattered hearts.
Every day I will pray that you would see this thing through.
This is my promise to you:
I'm going to stay true until the end,
with this passion, we're not alone,
it's always burning, internally burning

5. Unseen Tears

Now broken this solid heart.
When anything could've turned the tide,
you were born into my life.
If you had seen the marvels of my time,
if you had seen the world through my eyes,
if you had walked that mile in my shoes.
Would it have been any different
if it was you that lived instead of me?
In search for a face a little familiar,
for you can't rely on the one in front of you,
it's all, all because of your inability,
to see the path you created for me.
It all seems so promising.
Yet this may just be another day,
your wounds in life will always teach you.
Thinking of the world's that you changed,
you'll be living with the choices that you made,
Yet this may just be another day,
your wounds in life will (always) teach you.

6. Choice Or Chance

Her scent is in the air,
it's so familiar,
it's so clear,
I'll clench my teeth,
and look away,
only to see you standing there,
I can see now, what I did not before,
I fell for beauty, then turned to stone,
and from the look on her face,
she was craving on last taste,
bringing me back from the dead,
reinventing the words I said,
when I was willing to give up my life,
to sacrifice all I was given,
just to fall on her knife,
she made her move,
and I made mine,
"kings to you"
and now it's time to make it all come true
Like the burden on your back, sent the bearer of bad news,
to break my heart and

7. Paradise

8. Killing Compassion

9. Memories

Your,
Love,
Is surrounding,
Like,

Never before.

Hopes were high,
Your heart was open,
I saw a glow,
Like never before.
In a moonlight so bright,
I could see your other side,
My palms extended open,
I tried to let you in,
Only to be cut off.
With that glare in your eyes,
I could see night through your lies.
Time after time you still let go,
Seraching to hurt the ones you know.
Was this the right thing to do?
I guess we'll never know you.

We watch as you slipped away,
On our kness we will pray.

Please help us forget you,
We never meant to hurt you.

Dreaming of a life without loss,
Some still yearn to know you.

(Give it a chance you'll see)
(Bring back my memories)

[2X]
You'll remember every face (Give it a chance)
In this world you'll find nothing (Give it a chance)

[3X]
Living life like your walking,
Living life like your dead.

10. With The Wake

11. Destiny

Where will I rest among the rest of those thieves,
Controlling my words,
Destroying my actions,
Letting emotion harvest our pain,
You only get one chance to turn in right,
Rectify again and I try,
To rectify what I'm feeling
What if I rectify?
With this fist I hold nothing back,
In my heart the torment can't kill what i can't feel,
It's like you took a stroll through my mind,
Keeping all you could find though my mind
It's like a dream come true though my mind
As i lift this glass to you,
Through my faded mind
I'm bleeding on the floor,
I cannot think anymore,
Have you seen this before?
Bodies line the morgue,
Father God where have you been,
I'm sorry for my sin,
I tried to make things right,
What are these feelings for?
I will not let you die again
