WITHIN THE RUINS LYRICS

1. Cash Her In

By now I can hear the sirens. They're getting close now. Just hold one more minute. Time is against us now. Someone call for help. Save her she's going to die. Turning. Replaying it all in my head. Walk onto death and let the stars be your compass. Pray for stars. Don't close your eyes just yet. Faster now. We're picking up speed. We're set to crash. You're dragging your feet again. So walk onto death. With words unspoken I've given up. I've given up on you. By now I can hear the sirens. They're getting close now. Just hold one more minute. Time is against us now. Someone call for help. Save her she's going to die. Turning. Replaying it all in my head. Walk onto death and let the stars be your compass. Brace your fall.

2. Floodgates

Tonight early dusk will bring you fear that I'll be gone. Like a shadow with the dark. Fleeting like the northern winds. Catch me as I pass you by. Will you follow me as the wind blows through the open window and crosses your face will a cool breeze. I'm all around you. I am everywhere. How does it feel to have the tables turned. What compels you. Is it courage or fear that drives you. I hope you're finally happy that I've gone away. We'll be swept away. When I open the floodgates. We will be swept away. Open the window and let in the night air. Release me. Into a world not so cold. Not so cold. Do you know what it's like to breath through someone else's lungs. Follow the trade winds. But they won't bring you sleep. To find the place where I lay my head. The prevailing winds will bring us down.

3. Holy Mess

We're going down into churning waters and we will plunge through the great divide and we will be buried in the water. We will be buried in the water. Buried in the water. Swallowed by the mouth of God. Caught in this single form. I will take your fury. She got the taste of blood in her mouth so feed her to the sharks. The water is building up. The water is building in her lungs. Drown. The water is rising. The water is building up. The water is rising so hold your breath and drown. Just let me go because you'd give up everything for nothing. You'd give up everything for nothing. You'd give up everything. Pushing my head underwater. Could you imagine pushing my head underwater? We're going down into churning waters and we will plunge through the great divide and we will be buried in the water. We will be buried in the water. Death tides carry the bodies ashore. As I walk closer to the end. Is this the only thing we have to try and stay above the churning water? Is this the only thing we have to try and keep from drowning? I'll count the bodies you have left behind. Drown. Walk onto death. Hold your breath and drown. She got the taste of blood in her mouth. Blood.

4. Tractor Pull

Not for nothing, but you'd give it all. My heart is blackened with your lies. Bury me in an unmarked grave. You have destroyed everything. Living in the past is now. Some things will never change. You wore out your welcome. You've overstayed your time so get yourself together. Some things will never change so let's destroy. Fucking destroy your fucking life. No one wants to see the fucking truth. I didn't take part in the demise of thousands. I promise you'll get yours. Sooner or later. I promise. Sooner or later. Judgment will be paid. The price will be paid. Our hearts could never weather the storm. Who were we kidding? How long can I go before I take myself out? How long can I go? You wore out your welcome. You've overstayed your time. Some things will never change. Living in the past is now. Throw me in an unmarked grave.

5. Tug Of War

Captivate. You're captivating at best. You're pulling at my neck. My neck. Lead astray. Taking me by the hand. Show me the way. I tried so hard to leave. I tried so fucking hard to go. The memories lost and the promises broken. Broken by your actions. What were you thinking. I thought I knew you better. Lost in translation. The words that hang from your lips. Carry me. Did you think I wouldn't see right through you. The memories lost and promises broken. It's not too late to look back. The memories of me and you are all that I have to look for. It's not too late to look back. It's not too late to look back now. It's not too late. I regret. I regret all of my words. I'll take it all back. Love is nothing. Tragedy. Tragedy will only bring us down. You're always coming out on top. You're always coming out on top when you should be six feet under. Fuck the memories. Where lip-locked lovers die. Burn the pictures of our past. I had to see it die. Incisions have reached their point. Erase the loaded past. Burn the pictures of our past. I had to see it die. If I could I'd break every camera in your face and then we'd see who's beautiful now.

6. Victory
