The sky is falling down and I don't know which way to run I'll stop and stand my ground and watch it all come undone Who's on the side of right? Who's running this machine? I'll use all of my might, to keep up this sorry routine I don't know who I can believe I'm not so easy to deceive I don't know who I can believe I'm not so easy to deceive The writing on the wall is spelling certain fate for us all The heavier the head the harder it will fall Which way the wind will blow is something, darling, I don't know I've seen it all before and I don't want to follow I don't know who I can be believe I'm not so easy to deceive I don't know who I can believe I'm not so easy to deceive The sky is falling down and I don't know which way to run I'll stop and stand my ground and watch it all come undone The sky won't fall down The sky won't fall if I hold it up I said, the sky won't fall 'cause I'm holding it up I said, the sky won't fall if I hold it up I said, the sky won't fall 'cause I'm holding it up I said, the sky won't fall if I hold it up I said, the sky won't fall 'cause I'm holding it up I said, the sky won't fall if I hold it up I said, the sky won't fall 'cause I'm holding it up I said, the sky won't fall if I hold it up I said, the sky won't fall 'cause I'm holding it up I said, the sky won't fall if I hold it up I said, the sky won't fall 'cause I'm holding it up I said, the sky won't fall if I hold it up I said, the sky won't fall 'cause I'm holding it up I said, the sky won't fall if I hold it up I said, the sky won't fall 'cause I'm holding it up I said, the sky won't fall if I hold it up I said, the sky won't fall 'cause I'm holding it up I said, the sky won't fall if I hold it up I said, the sky won't fall 'cause I'm holding it up That sky won't fall down on me

Cut and Run 04:18
All it takes is a wisp, the slightest slip and The unwinding begins But you can't accept, and you won't forget it's sliding through your hands The more you hold on to, the more your hands will burn The less you care, the better lesson you will learn How do you wind a wick when it will not be wound? When you've got wounds to lick, well, don't you go to ground? I said hey, I said these loose ends will fray Will you pray "not today," Or will you walk away? There is no love here to be found There is no love lost if you just go to ground When will it come undone? When will you cut and run? When will it come undone? When will you cut and run? Let's bring this bridge down with fire Let's burn both ends as we go Let's bring this bridge down with fire Let's burn both ends as we go I said hey, I said these loose ends will fray Will you pray "not today," Or will you walk away? There is no love here to be found There is no love lost if you just go to ground When will it come undone? When will you cut and run? When will it come undone? When will you cut and run? Let's bring this bridge down with fire Let's burn both ends as we go Let's bring this bridge down with fire Let's burn both ends as we go Let's bring this bridge down with fire Let's burn both ends as we go

This sinking feeling is sending me reeling It's pulling me under and out of control I could confront you but I wouldn't want to Pull you further into this hollowed out hole The angles that you see When you're in front of me Are different from before I want you to see more This sinking feeling is sending me reeling It's pulling me under and out of control The angles that you see When you're in front of me Are different from before I want you to see more The angles that you see When you're in front of me Are different from before I want you to see more But I feel alright The angles that you see When you're in front of me Are different from before I want you to see more But I feel alright

Staring you down Such a long way down Feeling unwell I am staring down a well The echoes scream Such a foolish dream I wonder out loud My hopes sink like the sound Feeling futile It's hard to choose sides when you're standing in a circle Now you've lost your voice I'm holding onto hope although I should've known better Was it your choice? I'm holding onto hope although I should've known better I'm screaming down a well Wondering if you can hear, if anyone else can hear My hopes just sink like the sound Spiraling down The waves flatline and bottom out Now you've lost your voice I'm holding onto hope although I should've known better Was it your choice? I'm holding onto hope although I should've known better Now you've lost your voice I'm holding onto hope although I should've known better Was it your choice? I'm holding onto hope although I should've known better I should have known I should have known better I should have known much better I'm holding onto hope Still I'm holding onto hope I should have Known better Better than…

They'll never give in They'll never give up They won't back down You've got to get yourself up And get yourself out Get off the ground They'll never give in They'll never give up They won't back down You've got to get yourself up And get off the ground You can only play it safe for so long The risk you run is still strong Take a chance, take a stand Take it into your hands No such thing as perfect plans They will never give in They'll never give up They won't back down You've got to get yourself up And get yourself out Get off the ground They'll never give in They'll never give up They won't back down You've got to get yourself up And get off the ground Each day you wait nothing good can grow They're gaining ever so slow Listen up, listen close Listen to what's said The nagging voice in your head They'll never give in They'll never give up They won't back down You've got to get yourself up And get off the ground They'll never give in They'll never give up They won't back down They will never give in They'll never give up They won't back down Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up You've got to get yourself up And get yourself out Get off the ground Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up They'll never give in They'll never give up They won't back down Get up, get up, get up, get up, get up You've got to get yourself up And get yourself out Get off the ground

Roll out the red, red carpet Pull the rug from under me I feel the warmth of the fire burning inside Set me up to get burned instead It's tempting but you treat me with such contempt Fire is the only warmth I've ever known I feel that ire that fuels the flames We can set it straight or figure out who's to blame Home is where I don't belong It's not just My home Put a roof over my head Knock me out and leave me for dead Nothing over my head except the stars Now I am seeing stars They're burning but it's oh so cold, you know They seem about as far away as my home It's clear this is no home Not until we build it up and we make it ours Home is where I don't belong It's not just My home Home is where I don't belong It's not just My home The stars seem about as far away as my home It's clear this is no home Not until we build it up and we make it our home
