Who has the answer when all here is nothing
When the nothing hasn't crossed our minds
It's the terror of life, it's the horror of art (x2)
One of these days she's coming for you
She's coming for you (x2)
Death comes for the best of us
Death comes for the worst she is graceless
So run and hide
Run and hide
Save yourself while you can
While you can
OH
While you're young, don't forget you're a mortal "respice finem"
Life is fleeting, life is gone
So be grateful for where you are
Be grateful for where you are
Be happy with what you've got
You won't be here forever
and you won't be here for long
GET. UP.
While you're young, don't forget you're a mortal "respice finem"
Life is fleeting, life is gone
So be grateful for where you are
Where you are (x4)

If at all you're happy, and you're happy without me
then don't hold back that smile (don't hold back now)
Go live up to your dreams (everything that you thought I should be)
Find what you wanted in me (everything that you wanted in me)
I know this is hard but I'm asking you to let me go (Just let me...GO)
This is not the end
Just know you can start all over again x2
It's time to begin
If at all you're happy, and you're happy without me
then dont' hold back that smile (don't hold back now)
Go live up to your dreams (everything that you thought I should be)
Find what you wanted in me (everything that you wanted in me)
I know this is hard but I'm asking you to let me go
Know your worth
When they try to hold you down then we will find out what you're made of
Get back upP x2
This is not the end
In this reality you either take your chances or you die with nothing, DIE WITH NOTHING
Take what you want, take what you can in life, 'cause you could stand for something
Right now
And you'll never find
What you're really looking for
People try to find their way
But the lost remain
The lost remain lost

One too many times have I stood in your corner
One too many times have I stood my ground on this
Too many times have I defended you, even undeserving
Would it surprise you to find your apologie's long overdue?
You can't tell me that I have changed when all that's different here is that I can see
We've come this far and I'd like to think it wasn't all for nothing
And even if my eyes had seen, I would not have believed
I wanted this so bad and even now I long for all that we had
Is it any better to be blind to the lies placed in front of you? (than it is)
Than it is to choose to be deaf when your real friends try tell you the truth
What's the best way to wake yourself up
If you never fell asleep
You can't be the shelter this life needs if you're protecting another
I've been left to the storms I've been left to find a new home
What's the best way to wake yourself up
If you never fell asleep?
You can't run from your nightmares when you're already chasing your dreams
You've been here before, but this is all new to me
So please excuse me for wishing that we could've ended this differently
The last half year of your behavior has left me with nothing but to find
I can't close my eyes to anyone
I won't, I won't close my eyes
*PIG SQUEALLLLLLLLLLL*
Don't close your eyes
Dont' close your eyes

Who am I to judge the mistakes you've made? It's not my place
But we've reached a point where someone needs to say
What were you thinking? Take a look at yourself from outsider eyes
What were you thinking? Leaving all this behind trying to kick-start your life
I may not be, I may not be the right one to say
Everything Ithought you didn't need to hear
Just so you know it's not too late
Keep applying all that makeup to your personality
And try to remember you never needed it when you were here with me
I didn't let my heart break, no, I don't think it's broken yet
I let my heart leave and it's not a mistake I'm making again
I may not be, I may not be the right one to say
Everything I thought you didn't need to hear
Just so you know it's not too late
Keep applying all that makeup to your personality
And try to remember you never needed it when you were here with me
Let's go!
How was I supposed to know keeping you here was as simple as the fake promises and disappearing when you really needed me the most?
How was I supposed to know everything we stood for walked out the window when you flew through that door?
I know I'm not the right one to say everything you shouldn't need to hear but it's not too late
It's not too late
You know you've become my own life raft of levity, and I have told myself never to sail in an ocean of affliction but look where you left me
It's not too late x4
