1. Countdown's Back
Can you hear us? Or should we turn it up?
The best relationship is the one built on trust?
Isn't that what you wrote?
Back down. Didn't sign up for this state of waste.
Back down. Back down.
Didn't sign up for this state of waste.
We want it. We got it.
We're going home. (We're going home.)
Going back to what this meant to us.
We want it. We got it.
We're going home. (We're going home.)
Going back to what this meant to us.
Pave the way that's the intention.
We'll find a new way to get out.
Coming out a little better than before.
Always better than you.
Back down. Didn't sign up for this state of waste.
Back down. Back down.
Didn't sign up for this state of waste.
We want it. We got it.
We're going home. (We're going home.)
Going back to what this meant to us
We want it. We got it.
We're going home. (We're going home.)
Going back to what this meant to us.
Are you guilty? Guilty of a wasted life.
This time, we have, we sing, the last word.
2. Countdown's In The House
Hell yeah. Right now, this is the time and place. [x4]
The one thing that you have is the one thing that I hate.
(This is, this is, this is)
You are my hate beyond words.
And all these questions still need answers.
Can you provide?
Will we figure out this isn't working?
Well there she goes just like the others.
This seems to happen,
This seems to happen every time.
Can't live like this forever. (Can't live like this forever.)
I'll take this all away from you.
Seems like it's never ending, (seems like it's never ending)
Everything that you and I go through.
Do you still want me?
It's been three years since my last entry.
"Be good at something," that's what you told me.
It's been six months since I've been healthy.
This seems to happen,
This seems to happen every time.
Can't live like this forever. (Can't live like this forever.)
I'll take this all away from you.
Seems like it's never ending, (seems like it's never ending)
I'll say it's over.
I'll walk through broken glass to let them know,
Who you really are.
One last time, for my father.
The one thing that you have is the one thing that I hate.
Your love, your love, your love, your love, your love.
The one thing that you have is the one thing that I hate.
Your love, your love, your love, your love, your love.
The one thing that you have is the one thing that I hate.
3. Countdown Rules!
Take this knife, dig it deep within my face.
Consume the fluids that will make us Gods.
Get it right, get it right.
Tonight we'll get it right.
Get it right, get it right.
Tonight we'll get it right. YEAH.
Come on everyone, do this tonight.
We're gonna live forever.
Come on everyone, do this tonight.
We're gonna live forever.
And I only wish we could be here just to see,
The looks on their faces,
When they see what we've done.
Get it right, get it right.
Tonight we'll get it right.
Get it right, get it right
Tonight we'll get it right.
Come on everyone, do this tonight.
We're gonna live forever.
Come on everyone, do this tonight.
We're gonna live forever.
And now my dream is becoming reality.
Come on! Come on!
We're doing this tonight!
Come on! Come on!
Let's do this tonight!
Right now, you're all invited.
The ones back then that I have made it with.
You're all invited.
The ones back then that I have made it with.
4. Beach Patrol
This is what happens when the heart explains.
It's love and hatred for the things you do.
You can just promise this won't happen again.
It's killing you quick and killing me a little slower.
Not fatal but that knife still twisted in my back.
From here on out I'll trust myself.
Words cannot express.
Say the Right thing. Admit you were wrong.
Do the right thing go your own way now.
Say the Right thing. Admit you were wrong.
Do the right thing go your own way now.
Does it make you sick inside,
Knowing that you sunk so low?
Knowing that you shit on everyone,
Who ever helped you?
Remove that mask so we can see who you are.
You're not the person you claim to be.
Words cannot express.
Say the Right thing. Admit you were wrong.
Do the right thing. Go your own way now.
Say the Right thing. Admit you were wrong.
Do the right thing. Go your own way now.
Does it make you sick,
Knowing what you have done?
Does it make you sick,
Knowing what you have done?
Words cannot express.
Words could never explain.
5. Ethan Stay Clean
Don't let this pain be forgotten,
'Cause this pain don't come for free.
This part of us is irresistible.
This part of us is tragedy.
We take the bait, walk right in, have a seat,
And watch our lives flash before our eyes.
This circle of failure continues.
It's up to us to show some fucking strength.
This battle seems to take so long,
But our link to the, the other side is strong.
Don't let them walk on us cause it's not over.
We won't go quietly.
Don't let this pain be forgotten,
Cause this pain don't come for free.
This part of us is irresistible.
This part of us is tragedy.
This part of us is tragedy.
Seems like good intentions,
Are what we need to practice.
Things don't always have to be like this.
Don't let them walk on us cause it's not over.
We won't go quietly.
Take the stand or take the fall,
Before this world ceases to be at all.
We're gonna cross this border.
We're gonna get it right.
Tonight we'll see the walls falling down.
6. Getting It On
Lock all the doors. Turn out the lights.
You're gonna pay for all the mistakes that I made.
This is your end.
I wanted to grow up to be just like him.
You've cast me out and I'm coming back for more.
A voice inside me says, "Do this or do that."
And if I do not obey I usually rue the day.
You will see through me just want you wanted.
You will end up just like me.
So close your eyes.
Keep your head in your hands.
You're gonna pay. This is your end.
I wanted to grow up to fucking murder him.
You've cast me out.
I'm coming back for more.
A voice inside me says, "Do this or do that."
And if I do not obey I usually rue the day.
You will see through me just want you wanted.
You will end up just like me.
You will see through me just want you wanted.
You will end up just like me.
You will die. [x4]
You will see through me just want you wanted.
You will end up just like me.
You will see through me just want you wanted.
You will die.
7. Jacko On His Backo
I have the strongest urge.
This is going to be real bad.
But for a short while, I'll feel completed.
This whining, crying has to stop.
It's worth my life if I am caught.
Come on kids, lets go for a ride.
This won't take long, just your life.
You promised to keep your mouth shut.
Feel the cold steel.
Feel my flesh on your face. (on your face)
This empty feeling I have got to replace,
With your touch.
Feel the cold steel.
Feel my flesh on your face. (on your face)
This empty feeling I have got to replace,
With boys love.
They could take 18 years.
Guilty for loving too much.
Show me love, body, give me love, baby.
Come on kids, lets go for a ride.
This won't take long, just your lives.
You promised to keep your mouth shut.
Feel the cold steel.
Feel my flesh on your face. (on your face)
This empty feeling I have got to replace,
With your touch.
Don't look at me stare at the pictures on the wall.
(On the wall)
This empty feeling I have got to replace,
With boys love.
Is there something wrong with me?
Is there something wrong with me?
I don't think you know what it is I see,
When I'm looking at myself.
I hope they believe me when I say...
When I say.... when I say....
8. Love Song
Waiting at the gates it's begun to take over.
Now I can feel some joy,
The cobwebs falling slowly.
You begin to remove these calluses from my heart.
This is so new to me.
I don't know where to start.
I can't explain it,
What you do to me. YEAH BABY!
I can't explain it, what you do.
The feeling I get when you come near,
Is so incredible, grips me with fear.
Now I've let you in.
I'm an open target for you to leave behind,
But I will take my chances.
I can't explain it,
What you do to me. YEAH BABY!
I can't explain it, what you do.
Wishing, waiting, hoping, praying,
Someday you'll get close to me.
Yeah, I try so hard, I try so hard,
To win your heart.
I can't explain it,
What you do to me. YEAH BABY!
I can't explain it, what you do.
9. Paul Two And Heif Wanted This One
From my home it's 115 steps to your gravesite.
I know this cause I go to relieve,
Myself there every night.
The face I once remembered,
Now is starting to slowly fade.
A perfect death for you,
Lying amongst your own decay.
You looked into my eyes,
This is what you said,
"Cross my heart, hope to die,
You won't leave my side." [x2]
My cross-town drama scene,
Backdrop painted with my own tears.
Now your untimely death,
Began to bring out my own worst fears.
I was there the night the cold air,
Turned your last breath into fog.
All those promises you once made,
Now just shattered and broken.
You looked into my eyes,
This is what you said,
"Cross my heart, hope to die,
You won't leave my side." [x4]
I have the brains to pick the lock,
On the door you slammed in my face.
I have the brains to pick the lock,
On the door you slammed in my face.
10. Countdown In Heaven
This one goes out to the creator.
Whom I've never seen.
Whom I've never heard.
This one goes out to the deceiver.
Who never seem to listen.
Who never seem to care.
Get your bibles! Get your guns!
Time is now; they're on the run.
You can't take what I've found without hypocrisy.
All these words. All these words.
You said you'd show me,
If I kept you in my heart.
Still no sign or whisper.
So far I'm still here.
And I struggle to believe your words.
That your gift to us is to destroy the world.
Get your bibles! Get your guns!
Time is now; they're on the run.
You can't take what I've found without hypocrisy.
Never mind what we say or want.
We speak so loud so you will never forget.
I've heard your stories,
But I don't listen.
I will never trust the words that you preach.
And don't believe them,
Cuz you still have a choice.
They want your money, not your faith.
So let 'em live rich in those fairy tales.
We won't allow 'em to suck us in.
I back the fallen.
The ones who can't speak.
The ones who can't see.
Don't pray for me.
11. Walk In Silence
The rain falls down, washes out your eyes.
I've told you many times,
"This will turn out to be nothing."
Now that you're out you feel the pain escape.
No longer practice restraint,
Even though they'll always judge you.
You, you walk in silence.
Don't be afraid. You walk in silence.
Don't be afraid. You walk in silence
Don't be afraid. You walk in silence.
They kicked you out.
Your family hated you.
They left you in the streets.
Your life disrupted for the choices you have made.
Your secret life, out for the world to see.
Your courage goes unmatched.
They will be proud of you someday.
You, you walk in silence.
Don't be afraid. You walk in silence.
Don't be afraid. You walk in silence
Don't be afraid. You walk in silence.
You will, you shall,
You will, you shall,
You will, you shall,
You will overcome.
