Haven't we gone too far wondering who we are?
Darling, I know you've felt the same way too
How did things get so bad? Darling, I know you're sad
But crying won't make this feeling go away
Haven't you heard the news? We're dangling on a noose
Darling, has everybody lost their mind?
Born to a hopeless place, heaven's just empty space
Void by the sins of everyone
We are silhouettes
We are silhouettes
We are silhouettes
Woah
We can etch our fates
On the black of night
Cause the daylight's come and
Passed
Living to die in vain, doesn't it seem insane?
Darling, I know it's all too much to take
Haven't you felt the shame knowing we're all too blame?
Darling, I don't know how much more I can take
You're a silhouette
You're a silhouette
You're a silhouette
To me
Someone said true love was dead
A world that's turned to disaster instead
My father told me all my life
But I never thought I'd fall through the ice
Where steeple walls have been tumbling down
Onto city streets that burned to the ground
I once was lost, but now I'm found
Some burnout kid in some American town
So many people tell me
It's not worth dying for
We tread these tragic oceans
It's not cause we wanna
It's not cause we wanna
It's not cause we wanna drown
And be afraid
To be some burnout kid in some American town
I never learned to sympathize
When dead men spoke, I couldn't look in their eyes
So now I'm trapped in suburban lies
With the dried up blood of American pride
I'm sorry father
I swore we'd try
But it was an empty promise cause we
Don't know how to live or die
It's not because we wanna
It's not because we wanna
It's not because we wanna
It's not because we didn't try
Someone said true love was dead
A world that's turned to disaster instead
So now I'm lost never to be found
Some burnout kid in some American town
Cause everybody’s heart beat’s pounding like a bass drum
Do you feel the rhythm in the stars, in the stars tonight?
Do you feel the rhythm? Do you feel the rhythm?
Cause every heart beat’s like a drum, like a drum tonight
Do you hear the rhythm? Do you hear the rhythm?
Scared, nocturnal, we’re infernal
Love is never love eternal
Prophesized to exorcise you
Faith is never faith when it’s true
I never wanted to disappoint you
So tell me now cause I just can’t feel your touch
The disconnection, no resurrection
You’re screaming out, but I just can’t hear you
Dead romantics, we’re all frantic
Lost in love with all things tragic
Young and reckless, living deathless
Time is never time when endless
I never wanted to disappoint you
So tell me now cause I just can’t feel your touch, touch
I heard you tell me that you
Love me now, but I just can’t feel you
Cause everybody’s hellbound, disenchanted, spellbound
Despaired, we’re scared; I’m telling you…
I feel you in my bones
Like a chemical
Sweeping through my veins
Taking control of me
I wish that you could stay
With me eternally
I wish you'd never
I wish you'd never leave
Cause in the dead of night
Your skin's the waking light
Let every ember burn
And every flame ignite
Whisper to my soul
Every siren call
And I will follow
Yeah, I will follow
Wherever you are
Wherever you go
You tear me apart
I feel you, I feel you in my bones
I feel you in my bones
And if I fall from grace
Would you comfort me?
Would you lie and say
That you belong to me?
And if the sky should fall
Crashing down on me
Would you notice?
Would you notice?
Wherever you are
Wherever you go
You tear me apart
And show me the way
Wherever you are
Wherever you go
You tear me apart
Cause every picture is out of focus
And I've been living life without a purpose
Living out of time, living without love
I feel you in my bones
I feel you in my soul
I swear I'll never
I'll never let you go
So close, but you're half a world away
How's it been? It's hard to say
So far, I've felt more alone each day
Where have you been? You've gone astray
Like a silent movie
I have nothing to say
Like a picture out of focus
We've been fading away
Slowly, we've been dying more each day
As the skies turn to grey
So many people, so many places
So many fates, but they all look the same
Cause as the world is burning
They all look away
How can things get better?
When disaster never ends
But it's alright cause nothing matters now
Anyway
Like a time bomb waiting to explode
We've been counting down the days
Without tear drops, without purpose
We've been slipping away
