The day was warm In the sweet little town where I was born But on all of the days since then I’ve been waiting for the world to end With no luck at all When I look outside I dream of the ground opening wide I hope the sun won’t last long And the cold night marches on With no rest at all Maybe I’m just a cynic But I see no value in it I hope the world burns I hope the moon crashes down And space debris rains from the clouds And I hope the smoke fills my lungs And I start praying in tongues With no sense at all All of this is to say I’m looking forward to Doomsday I don’t even have to think twice Cause my veins are as cold as ice With no regrets at all Maybe I’m just a cynic But I see no value in it I hope the world burns Maybe I’m just a cynic But I see no value in it I hope the world burns I hope the world burns I hope the world burns I hope the world burns

Stare down the highway Stare down the road This diesel fueled engine sounds like it’s gonna a blow Yellow teeth, white knuckles, orange hair When it comes to inner demons We’ve got more than our fair share Roll the dice and place your bets We are young savage things And we have no limits yet Out on parole Out on the town When people see us coming they will turn themselves around Try not to kill But we could try just a little harder Everybody in this place is gonna go down as a martyr Roll the dice and place your bets We are young savage things And we have no limits yet Roll the dice and place your bets We are young savage things And we have no limits yet Roll the dice and place your bets We are young savage things And we have no limits yet

I will rise up, from the cold wooden floor Alone in the dark but I’m not afraid anymore I will stumble along ’til the end of all days And carry you close in my thoughts always It would take about hundred brains or more To find the right words to sing behind your door Hungry for life. Hungry for life What good is a head With nothing left inside it? And what good’s a heart If you’ve nothing left to guide it? I will rise up, I will stand real tall I will be strong and I will not fall I will be the ground beneath your feet With every step you take I will break And though my skin is cold like a frozen lake I surrender, I am yours to take I won’t lay hands on you And I won’t hurt your family too, oh What good is a head If you’ve got nothing inside it? What good is a heart With nothing left to guide it? What good is a head With nothing left inside it? What good is a heart If you’ve got nothing to guide it?

All the time I have spent Trying to pretend Wasn’t worth a dime Let alone my two cents I’m passed out and naked on the ground I’m passed out and naked on the ground When I wake up I will see There’s no-one next to me I’ll get my act together Hold my breath and count to three Close my eyes and try not to cry Close my eyes and try not to cry So I’ll make amends With my long-lost friends And we’ll catch up on the time we have lost We’ll drink our beer We’ll hold back our tears Cause the cheap stuff comes watered down enough Yeah cheap stuff comes watered down enough If I could sleep at night I just might feel alright Wake up in the morning And step into the light Maybe true love has found me in the end Yeah true love has found me in the end Cause I know I’m not alone But I can’t pick up the phone If I’m talking at all It’s only to atone And I can’t say sorry enough I just can’t say sorry enough So I’ll make amends With my long-lost friends And we’ll catch up on the time we have lost We’ll drink our beer We’ll hold back our tears Cause the cheap stuff comes watered down enough Yeah cheap stuff comes watered down enough I’ll make amends With my long-lost friends And catch up on the times we have lost We’ll drink our beer We’ll hold back tears Cause the cheap stuff comes watered down enough Yeah cheap stuff comes watered down enough The cheap stuff comes watered down enough

Tennessee II 03:57
I’ll take this picture and I'll hang it in my room You’ll stare out my window until June Too many photos hang upon my wall Most of them hold no meaning at all I’ll try to make room for you But every time I do You end up scattered on the floor Things ain’t so easy when you’re falling apart We knew this day would come right from the start I know it hurts but let’s give it one more try Before we throw towel in and say goodbye I will come see you If you want me to I will be knocking at your door I will come see you If you want me to I will be knocking at your door

Bad Manners 02:31
Drive up to Hamlin Maine While there’s light in the sky Find the cheapest place to stay Where they won’t ask why Look to the tree tops Look down at the sand Look to the dead horizon Then down at my hands Find the biggest guy in town Throw my fists up and I’ll try to knock him down Wake up bleeding Try to stand back up The room is empty But I’m filled bad luck I’ve got a 9 a.m. Check out time I don’t know where I’ll go But I feel just fine Find a bigger guy in an even bigger town Get back in the ring and I’ll try to knock him down I’ll try to knock him down Yes I will try to knock him down

Yes It Would 02:21
Wouldn’t it be nice If we could tell ourselves it will all be okay And actually believe in half the words that we say But I know that you know that we both know There’s no way that would actually happen Isn’t it a nice thought though I’ve been telling myself I’m just in a rut I’ll get my head above water soon But drowning feels a kind of nice When it’s the only thing you know how to do Wouldn’t it be nice Wouldn’t it be nice If we could tell ourselves it will all be okay And actually believe in half the words that we say But I know that you know that we both know There’s no way that would actually happen Isn’t it a nice thought though We’ve been walking these woods at night And we’ve been hearing such an awful sound I think that it’s time we to leave I think it’s time that we turn around Wouldn’t it be nice Wouldn’t it be nice Wouldn’t it be nice Wouldn’t it be nice

The falling snow coats the street lamps tonight Powder blows in from the left and from the right Winter piles up in the frozen city square Howling winds scream into the cold air I turn around and hear your voice in the dark It sounds empty but it leaves a mark Something’s different something's not the same I can’t ignore when it calls my name It feels like I’m dying

I never imagined the world would end this way And now that it’s over I don’t know what to say Who would have thought water could taste so sweet Or the ground would feel so nice underneath our feet What do you say, let’s go for one more spin Hold on tight and press against my skin Who would have thought the flames would burn this bright Who would have thought I'd be with you tonight Here at the end, with no hope left in our hearts I can’t tell where you end and I start Who would’ve thought we could feel the things we felt And who would’ve we would deal with what we dealt

Hello, Me 05:35
This I tell myself I tell myself this everyday When I’m looking for the right words With nothing left say You’ve gotta hope what you got is enough You gotta hope it’s enough And this world can feel so small Like there’s nowhere left to turn And I’ve been there many times So let me share what I have learned You gotta hope what you’ve got is enough You gotta hope it’s enough And I’ve seen a thing or two Hell maybe nine or ten things more And I know what trouble sounds like It’s knocking at your door You gotta hope what you’ve got is enough You gotta hope it’s enough Nothing in this life comes free Nothing in this life comes easily You gotta hope what you got is enough You gotta hope it’s enough You can tell yourself you’re ready You can act like you’re prepared But don’t wait any longer Just pretend like you’re not scared You gotta hope what you got is enough You gotta hope what you got is enough And don’t worry ‘bout the future Don’t get hung up in the past Just enjoy the ones you’re with And their time while it lasts You’ve gotta hope what you’ve got is enough You gotta hope it’s enough I know just what this is I’ve got it figured out by now You’re just looking for excuses But they won’t work anyhow You gotta hope what you got is enough You gotta hope it’s enough Nothing in this life comes free Nothing in this life comes easily You gotta hope what you got is enough You gotta hope what you got is enough
