(all we need is a spark)
(just one)
just one spark
will light the way
out of the darkness
and back to that place
we knew where we stood
and it's where we should've stayed
'cause i've been living inside
of a memory
of how it was not how it should be
that's nothing new yeah
(nothing new for me)
(all we need is a spark)
just one more spark to ignite the flame
(all we need is a spark)
that light in the dark that'll show me the way
(all we need is a spark)
it's been a long time
so much left unsaid
(just one)
but i still got a little
fight in me left

Young 'Til I'm Old

so what's left
after everything we said
i can't remember
'cause it's been forever
since i raised my fist
this oath that i pledged
i can't keep my promise
the kids are all dead
youth gone expired
those heroes we had
and no longer admire
they've gone away
yeah they're gone away
things don't sound the same
it's got nothing to do
with my age
it must be you
it can't be me
"young 'til i die"
and i'll never change
not like everyone else
(there's just no way)
so full of shit, but we were kids
i'm not ashamed of it
we fought the odds, we made it count
no matter what we did
we lived our lives unlike the one
you thought you had to live
and i wouldn't trade away a single day
for anything

tell me again what i stand to win
if i bend my knee and bow my head
a perfect life on the other side
better plan ahead, i guess that makes sense
you sound so sure of it
and who am i to doubt you
when you told me i' m not even allowed to
don't waste your prayers on me
save 'em for sunday
you might need 'em a lot more
(than you think)
i've heard it all before anyway
(don't) don't waste your prayers on me
(save) save 'em for sunday
(you) you might need 'em a whole lot more
(than) (than you think)
stuck by your side for the afterlife
that's not my kind of paradise
i can't believe you're still so naive
but i guess it beats "feeling incomplete"
it's never been a problem for me
so just stay away
i don't need to be saved

i never thought that door would close
now there's no place left for me to go
all alone down here
at the bottom of a hole
since i been digging this shit
i've been ready to leave
just didn't think of it
'til i was thirty-three
i thought it had to get better
but it never got better did it
if "growing up means getting old"
this keeps you young or so i'm told
i gotta know which way to go
if i stand still i'll sink like a stone
used to think this was my home
'til i felt that pull and i had to go
but look how far i got
just close enough to watch it fall apart
and even that would be okay
if i could convince someone to stay
i ain't naming names
there's no one left to blame
sink like a stone

the sun goes down on another day
watch parking lot lights flicker on
we use 'em to light our way
but we never end up anywhere but here
it's just another wasted year
and on and on and on until it's gone
but it's not gone yet
so many days left to fill
and when there's nothing left
we still got time to kill
one more day
that lasts all year
another summer
that keeps us here
we'll pretend like we don't care
we're still trying to disappear
so when the morning breaks
they find us gone and washed away
'cause we don't leave a trace
we found our place to hide
and we stake our claim here every single night
|

how did it feel to let us down
did it even cross your mind
when you
struck a match to everything we built
well my patience is in limited supply
i can't watch you tear yourself apart
i won't stand by
for your demise
it was hard to watch you fall
when you stood so tall
so far above
everyone
but now when you look down
who's looking back
no one at all
you can lie to yourself for the rest of your life
that's your right
i'm just sick and tired
and i won't apologize

it's been a long time
since we had a night like this
and it takes me back
to a time i miss
but all these faces look different
so i'm losing track
of what it was that convinced us
we should come back
we used to have a purpose
and a space to fill
but what if there's no more room
what do we do
we acted like it was never gonna happen to us
but we gave in
grew up
just like everyone else
you can try your best
to convince yourself
that you belong to this place
when you know you don't
now you can feel it in the air
it's time to leave
so don't make it any harder
than it has to be
we acted like it was never gonna happen to us

they turned off the lights
to let us know
our welcome's overstayed
we don't have to go home
but there's no way
we can stay here anyway
i was thinking the same thing
i was just too afraid
to admit i didn't know how
to give a shit about it all right now
there's a pissed off kid
inside of me
and he's been burning me up
since 2003
he's never been happy
too stubborn to listen to a
goddamn thing
he wants to drag me down with him
when he goes
so he won't be lonely
but now
i'm ready to go yeah i'm ready to go
and it's something that i haven't felt before
there's that light at the end
they were always pointing me towards

Welcome To You Are Doom

(never again)
that's what you said
yeah what you said to me
didn't think it would be so easy
(never again)
that's what you said
and i was listening
i just didn't believe it
i know you didn't mean it
so go ahead and prove me right
it's waste of my time
when you're wasting your life
i watched you paint yourself to match
a picture of a life you wouldn't ever have
so fall apart again
and try to fix yourself with broken hands
i'm at capacity for this
i've got my own faults to address
but none as bottomless as this
just keep killing yourself
it won't matter to anyone else
it's a waste of my time
when you're wasting your life

(what i wouldn't give)
(to do it all over again)
when everything is said and done
and we've closed the past up tight
i wonder what i wouldn't give
to go back for one more night
in the streets, boiling summer heat
our skateboards underneath our feet
"leave it alone" was on the stereo
if you were falling apart
you didn't have to do it alone
careless, fucked up
everything to lose
trying to walk a mile
in someone else's shoes
i knew it back then
just didn't know myself
i didn't give a damn
'cause i knew what i felt
all that's left is the emptiness
the darkened rooms where we did our best
we stayed until there was no one left
now we get to find out what comes next
