[Verse 1] I'm watching the wind take everyone off of their feet And place them upon cars in the middle of the street Lights flicker on and off but they never seem to go out They'll burn the brightest when no one is around [Chorus] Throw your flares into the dark sea We'll swim and search until we find thee Buried beneath the coral and the sunlight We'll try light the way We'll try light the way [Verse 2] No Riddle nor rhyme can ever explain why The conscious mind when it runs dry The conscious mind has nothing to hide When left alone, their crawling around in me Their crawling around in me Go on and be gone Drift undertow [Chorus] [Verse 3] Sinking down and further from what I was once Reaching up and grabbing air and hoping no one Sees me scared to d**h from being grown up I am gone and looking down from every ceiling [Chorus](x2) [Verse 4] You can laugh all you want Laugh all you want I'll find myself on top of the world With a lightning bolt in the palm of my hand Ready to strike over and over and over again I'll bestow upon you the burden of Love and it's unkempt malevolent teeth Just smiling down at me It's taunting me It's taunting me [Refrain](x4) Why didn't I leave? [Outro] The problem with compromise is that one of us is never right The vanity of human heads will k** the world's occupants You are quivering when you speak (x2) I know you're scared so follow me I'll lead us out of misery And When the ground begins to crack Just know that I will have your back You are quivering when you speak (x2) There are ashes now where people were The greener gra** is brown like dirt Apocalypse has reached its end It's time to begin new again You are quivering when you speak (x6)
