Second Thoughts - Crown the Empire

Sh...
I hear the static drawing nearer, there's no way out.
I breathe the eyes and let the fire die.
I keep on feeling in the chemicals I need to breathe, but how could something so important not belong to me.
I can't pretend like I'm the one who's going to change this but all I know is that our time is running out.

I get so tired lighting fires when I know we still have so much better effort to go.

So how much longer must I wait to fill this emptiness.
I make mistakes and that my dreams slip through the cracks.
I've seen such hate surround the inside of this dark abyss but all this pain just makes me certain that there's luck for me to find a brighter path.

And out of the dust to see the light creep in and no it won't be long.
But let's confide, cause at least in the dark no one else can see who you really are.
So bring me, raise up your guns and blame me for all of your wrongs.
Seems hate is all I have left, yeah it's all I have left, it's the only thing that's left of me.

I get so tired lighting fires when I know we still have so much better effort to go.

So how much longer must I wait to fill this emptiness.
I make mistakes and that my dreams slip through the cracks.
I've seen such hate surround the inside of this dark abyss but all this pain just makes me certain that there's luck for me to find a brighter path.

So when you feel like you're falling under, holding onto the things you thought you loved.
Will you let all of the things you run from, chew you up and spit you out. (There's so much now!)

I get so tired lighting fires when I know we still have so much better effort to go. [x2]

So how much longer must I wait to fill this emptiness.
I make mistakes and that my dreams slip through the cracks.
I've seen such hate surround the inside of this dark abyss but all this pain just makes me certain that there's luck for me to find a brighter path. (Find a brighter path!)

Don't be scared, we'll see the lights go out...
