1. this is the end of your life
Hold everything dear, in your hand
In a moment it's gone, everything that you love disappears
Hold everything close, 'cause you may outlast it
Memories are all that remain of the way that it was
Watch it all go by, 'cause it's all that you can do
Everything changes so fast
For better or for worse, it was never up to you
Everything's changing so fast
Hold everything in
You're a mess
It took years to attain and a second to tear it all down
Burn everything off, 'cause the feeling won't last
Memories are all that remain of the way that it was
Watch it all go by, 'cause it's all that you can do
Everything changes so fast
For better or for worse, it was never up to you
Everything's changing so fast
It's changing now
Listen, every single second counts
Every single moment leads up to now
This is the end of their life
This is the end of your life
This is the end of our life
This is the end of my life.

2. moments...
You'll bruise their hearts, child
You'll live their lives?
You'll fill their shoes, child?
You'll still be right?
You'll speak your words, child
You're still naive
You'll tell your lies, child
They'll still believe
All you've ever said about them, it was never right
Has all you've learned here been forgotten?
You're the perfect light?
Don't strain your head, child, thinking for them
Don't place the blame, child
Your time will come
All you've ever thought about them, it was never right
Your "open mind" is sealed and settled, locked and bolted tight
All you've lived is moments in a fraction of their lives
It's sad you never notice when the stick is in your eye
You'll throw your stones, child
You'll never bleed?
All you've ever said about them, it was never right
And all you've ever thought about them, it was never right
The bleeding hearts and artists painted meanings in their songs
And all the little children lost their minds and sang along
All that you said wasn't true.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. in a fraction
all you ever said about them:
it was never right.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. liability
You can tell us that it isn't serious
And you can tell us that you'll do it right
You can tell us that you've got it all worked out
You can tell us that it's all for us
But we know you're lying through your teeth
You can tell us that it's for security
And you can tell us it's for our own good
You can tell us that we wouldn't understand,
and you can hide behind your practiced grin
But we know you're lying through your teeth
You will bare the brunt of liability
It will be a stone around your neck,
drowning you in irresponsibility,
underneath the weight of your regret
You can sell our secrets for your benefit
You can toss our bodies in the ground
You can ship our children off to battlefields
You can wipe the blood from both your hands
You can tell us that it's indisputable,
as you throw away the evidence
But, we know you're lying through your teeth
You will bare the brunt of liability
It will be a stone around your neck,
drowning you in irresponsibility,
underneath the weight of your regret.

5. breathing by wires
Addicted to razors
Lashes to saviors
Glued to the monitor
Trained behavior
Reduced to a number
Mechanic enslavement
A virtual prison
Selected detainment
A gradual nightmare
Suicidal impulse
A cycle of habit
Undeniable loss
Breathing by wire
A network of heroes
Processing data as ones and zeros
Carry me through the wires
Bury me in the screen
Shift me into this fixation
Cling to the machine
This is now your world, and you barely made it
Did you think that it would cradle you until you were asleep forever?
Did you?
Carry me through the wires
Bury me in the screen
Shift me into this fixation
Cling to the machine
This is now your world, and you barely made it
Did you think that it would cradle you until you were asleep forever?
Did you?

6. piano song
Old friend, I hear you
I know just how you feel
I've been in your shoes before
I've seen your worries,
And I can understand everything you going through
And I believe in you
Your time is coming
Don't give up tonight
There's a life ahead
Your time is coming
Don't let go tonight
My friend, I've listened
Things only can improve
You have all the time in the world
So keep on fighting,
And never let them say there's anything that you can't do
Cause I believe in you
Your time is coming
Don't give up tonight
There's a life ahead
Your time is coming
Don't let go tonight
I watched as you sat with a cigarette in your hand,
holding a drink in the other,
Trying to drown all your pain:
And I believe in you
Your time is coming
Don't give up tonight
There's a life ahead
Your time is coming
Don't let go tonight
Old friend, you'll realize,
Good things are worth the wait
Enjoy the times that you have
You'll see a new day,
When darkness fades again,
And the sun can rise to shine
And I believe in you
Your time is coming
Don't give up tonight
There's a life ahead
Your time is coming
Don't let go tonight.
