DEATH OF AN ERA LYRICS

1. Intro

Dead men tell no tales,
So sink their ships,
And burn their sails.

2. These Cities Never Sleep

I've spent these last two years,
In more hotel rooms, than a whore.
Looking back has never been an option.
Sometimes I run, others I hide.

Don't touch me,
Don't even come close.
You don't know what I've been through.
Don't touch me now, Don't even come close.
You don't know what I'm capable of.

For two damn years, this fear keeps me,
Far from here, I'll show you now.
What it means, to be afraid.
This neverending nightmare.

I promise my eyes are open wide.
Where do you go with nowhere to hide?

3. Is There A Doctor In The House

In all my life, something I never foresaw.
Was a demon, a demon just like you.
With two faces, but with such beauty and grace.

But when they told me, I could not believe my ears.
No disappointment could have ever prepared,
Prepared me for this.

What are you trying to prove,
Even your friends don't believe in you.
Take a good look at what you turned into.

I don't know how much closer to the edge I can get.

Thanks to the art of deception,
Fill your emptiness with words from others just like you.

Look at your life,
Is this all that you're worth?
Look at your life,
Do you want something more?

What are you trying to prove,
Even your friends don't believe in you.
Take a good look at what you turned into.

It was the first time,
That I saw her pretty face.
It was the first time,
That I Saw that smile.
And now I realize.
She played all of her angles.

4. Black And White

Help me,
Oh, please save me from this tragedy.
A liar's words never came true.
But in the end, what's new?
I came to you for misled guidance.

In return, I get nothing.
But what's new?

I turn my back you turn your side.
Just keep on running, run and hide.
I keep my word you don't keep yours.
Just keep pushing, make it worse.

Can't you see what you've caused?
A tide of lies overcomes me,
I'm carried away.
I've become the lost.

I can't believe, the years.
I've wasted on you.

I turn my back you turn your side.
Just keep on running, run and hide.
I keep my word you don't keep yours.
Just keep pushing, make it worse.

No, but I've showed you,
That this, that this was all your fault.

I turn my back you turn your side.
Just keep on running, run and hide.
I keep my word you don't keep yours.
Just keep pushing, make it worse.
(Just run away, conceal your shame.
Too weak to stay.)

5. Quarantine

People beware, they are here.

They warned us, stay far from here.
A quarantine, do not come near.
With flashing lights and thundering guns.
This horrid fate is everyone's.

This is the end, but we cannot die.
Pick up your arms and fight for your lives.
Death is no option, we shall not fall.
Avenging the dead, we'll give it our all.

I will stay alive, you will not survive. (x2)

I have seen you arise right before my eyes.
I put a bullet in your head,
Now, bitch, you stay dead.

This is how your death will be.
Without cause or sympathy.
Take your last breath tenderly.
Let your life go angrily.

Get out of town, run for your lives.
Don't dare delay, fight for today.

6. Shallows

I see faces, white with death.
They stare at me, from the water.

Swallowed by hundreds,
Men sink down to their graves.
With all hope gone,
They can't be saved.

In just minutes,
Life turns to nothingness.

For some it goes quickly,
For others, not so fast.
Take a look at the sky,
For it will be your last.

We'll fight for tonight,
Now's our time.
I saw you there, won't you stay here?
No time for goodbyes,
Pray for our lives.
This fight is ours,
We've come so far.
Brace yourselves,
This could be the end.
I've had enough,
This is too much.
Just don't think,
What could have been.
We must push on,
We will push on.

This water is now our tomb.

It's now or never,
Turn this ship around.
They can hear everything,
Don't make a sound.
There is no difference,
But the colors of the sails.
It's all the same soil,
From which each man hails.

Break your bones.
We hold our breath,
And hope for the best.

Take everything, give nothing back.
What have you done for us?

7. Interlude

[Instrumental]

8. I Hope You Get Run Over By A Choo Choo Train

I've never seen it so bad,
There's blood on the ground.
It's a massacre.
I've never seen it so bad,
There's blood on my hands.
I'm a murderer.

One two three,
They've found the street.
Four five six,
They're at the door.
Seven eight nine,
I hear their footsteps.
With guns and shackles,
They have come for me.

I've never seen it so bad,
There's blood on the ground.
It's a massacre.
I've never seen it so bad,
There's blood on my hands.
I'm a murderer.

Only knowing hate,
I have sealed my fate.
Feeling regret,
I must face the end.
