You can’t scare us with black flags I tasted hope no man could take away It’s all pixelated fantasy and smiles from those that be But the stars are calling The wars of our past have been covered by a new understanding There’s some things you can get away with and some things you can’t I will not be defined Past fears won’t rob me blind Refuse to be confined In someone else’s world Searching ‘til I can find Somewhere to feel alive Far on the other side Of someone else’s world Your words cut and divide A world you won’t admit you despise I wanna see beyond it, but everything is red A wall between us here instead I will not be defined Past fears won’t rob me blind Refuse to be confined In someone else’s world Searching ‘til I can find Somewhere to feel alive Far on the other side Of someone else’s world Books on top of books And still no answers Nothing that could satisfy It just mystifies me More and more And now I’ve reached the point Where I almost didn’t notice You moved on You moved on without me I will not be defined Past fears won’t rob me blind Refuse to be confined In someone else’s world Searching ‘til I can find Somewhere to feel alive Far on the other side Of someone else’s world Someone else's world

We had a dream and a vision And now this whole damn thing’s turned to fiction It’s like the closer we get, the faster you turn And then you run You run You wanna take me by surprise? (Oh my love) Then give me something more than lies built on lies Were you ever mine? Call it off, call me crazy Do you hear a word that I’m saying? It’s just tears and silence ‘til it all falls apart And then you call You call You wanna take me by surprise? (Oh my love) Then give me something more than lies built on lies Were you ever mine? Were you ever mine? Lie to me Can it last? Can we make it? Can we call this real while we fake it? I don’t want your answers I don’t want your word Give me something I can feel You wanna take me by surprise? (Oh my love) Then give me something more than lies built on lies You wanna take me by surprise? (Oh my love) Then give me something more than lies

Nothing was the same as the good old days When I looked up in my mind it's like I seemed okay, When they think I'm feeling fine I'ma turn the light Murder's nice, bodies you can burn tonight, learn to fight I just lost a battle and shattered a knee, Hit me with the paddle I skedaddled what's matter with me? Talking out your ass you gained an enemy, settled for me I don't see the bright lights, better be relevant See everybody's faking Hollywood faces, that's my position Never taking breaks, gotta play without an intermission Why so serious? Life ain't an exhibition Claiming they the same behind the cloak they are the opposition Out of the blue, into the black, dark magician Chemical imbalance that's a fact, I need decomposition Time is of the essence for the partying bunch You're better always steady thinking like a Starsky or Hutch I ain't like the kind of chicks that with me, All my fashion looking way too thrifty, I don't really wanna live past fifty, You're my friend so suffer with me, I ain't like the kind of gifts you give me, I ain't even got a thing that's nifty, I don't really wanna live past fifty, All my friends goin' suffer with me I ain't like the kind of chicks that with me, All my fashion looking way too thrifty, I don't really wanna live past fifty, You're my friend so suffer with me, I ain't like the kind of gifts you give me, I don't even got a thing that's nifty, I don't really wanna live past fifty, All my friends goin' suffer with me Manipulate with time and you'll find it just makes it faster Winner's jacket's green but that don't mean that he's a master Last year, 'round the same time the corrupt pastor passed up on the chance to cleanse his greedy hands The young man, man he had no money Holes up in his pants the pastor looked at him funny He was looking like a man that never struggled for something I guess it's fake identification, religious McLovin If the pastor's up in heaven then I swear I'm above it Not against the creator, it's the fakers, had enough of them Not in Degeneration X but I'll tell them to suck it Celebrating for a win like it's a Steph Curry bucket If it misses I'll be staying up, celebrate with some cans of beer without the fear of ending up in some handcuffs I don't trust anybody that's flakier than some dandruff I can't be ruined, that's not a blemish that's a damn scuff Gift and a curse, 'cause the government solution it is usually the worst So when I die at 27 put my ass in a hearse Only wish is at my funeral all my brothers converse Realize my life backwards, stuck in reverse Every time, seemed fine, didn't cringe, but it hurt It's that time of my life when they saying it's do or die Dr. Kevorkian, I assist suicides I ain't like the kind of chicks that with me, All my fashion looking way too thrifty, I don't really wanna live past fifty, You're my friend so suffer with me, I ain't like the kind of gifts you give me, I ain't even got a thing that's nifty, I don't really wanna live past fifty, All my friends goin' suffer with me I ain't like the kind of chicks that with me, All my fashion looking way too thrifty, I don't really wanna live past fifty, You're my friend so suffer with me, I ain't like the kind of gifts you give me, I don't even got a thing that's nifty, I don't really wanna live past fifty, All my friends goin' suffer with me

The memories we’re sharing Will carry us back home It’s where I’ve always dreamed of We took a chance together We knew the odds were stacked In favour of what we were holding You look me in the eyes and ask me what I want I just wanna see you happy Could it be that everything I wanted was here all along? I just wanna see you happy again You said, Hold me baby through this awful storm This is far from over War has just begun Hold me baby Though my heart is worn, I can be your anchor While we're far from shore I wonder when I’ll wake up This struggle can’t be real I want to tell you how we’ll get back But I’m lost You look me in the eyes and ask me what I want I just wanna see you happy Could it be that everything I wanted was here all along? I just wanna see you happy again You said, Hold me baby through this awful storm This is far from over War has just begun Hold me baby Though my heart is worn, I can be your anchor While we're far from shore Hold me baby through this awful storm This is far from over War has just begun Hold me Hold me Will we ever make it back? Will we make it back to shore? Back to the wall and it’s getting harder To travel back to that same horizon But you know I’m not like the others I told you Forever
