True music, true art, chooses you It lights a fire inside of you that you can't explain It lives in your heart, your mind, and your soul We are the guardians of its creation And it is the beacon of our inspiration The music survives if we keep the songs alive The music survives if we keep the songs alive The music survives if we keep the songs alive The music survives if we keep the songs alive The music survives if we keep the songs alive The music survives if we keep the songs alive The music survives if we keep the songs alive The music survives if we keep the songs alive The music survives if we keep the songs alive (Survives) Hey, hey, hey, hey Hey, hey, hey, hey Hey, hey, hey, hey Hey, hey, hey, hey

Time spins its hands and reveals dire plans Locked and loaded, pull the trigger Destined to rise, we've got nothing to lose Destined to rise and to fall Hold your breath (Oh my God) It's all happening Seems it's more than a fairy tale Whispers control our fate (Wings of Icarus) If you burn too quickly From ashes we will rise (Will we fly? Will we die?) In the unknown, you have to question fantasy Let's see what we're made of (Panic, motivation) Swallow the doubt and suffocate the urgency There's no turning back now (Chaos is a ladder) Silently, you told yourself that this was all a joke (Will we die? Will we fly?) Despite my faith Look me in the eye, say it to my face (Will we die? Will we fly?) Tell me I will fail And I will prove you wrong One final chance to give up and go back To hell with that, onward we march (Oh my God) It's all happening Seems it's more than a fairy tale Whispers control our fate (Wings of Icarus) If you burn too quickly From ashes we will rise (Will we fly? Will we die?) In the unknown, you have to question fantasy Let's see what we're made of (Panic, motivation) Swallow the doubt and suffocate the urgency There's no turning back now (Chaos is a ladder) Yeah (Will we fly? Will we die?) In the unknown, you have to question fantasy Let's see what we're made of (Panic, motivation) Swallow the doubt and suffocate the urgency There's no turning back now (Chaos is a ladder) (Will we fly? Will we die?) Soon they will be seeing (Will we fly? Will we die?) What we are believing

(Reap) Do you believe yourself? (What) The lies you tell so well? (You) I hope you rot in Hell (Sow) Yeah, I'm gonna watch as you break down From the shadows, you strum on your web of influence Consuming your victims (From the inside) A spider to the end You think you're innocent? You think you're relevant? You're such a hypocrite Yeah, and now it's time for the payback Never forget who you are, stick to your guns Reflections live through the night (Are you just a sucker buying time?) You drink it down, the clover poisons your lungs They welcome you out of spite (Much to your twisted delight) I guess that I will never know (I'll never know) Exactly what they see in you (I'll never) You have finally done it, you outsmarted the mirror And believe the lies you told Now you are complete, a jester and a fraud When you smile at me, I doubt you realize what I see A shadow where once stood a fool (Reap) Do you believe yourself? (What) The lies you tell so well? (You) I hope you rot in Hell (Sow) Yeah, and now it's time for the payback Never forget who you are, stick to your guns Reflections live through the night (Are you just a sucker buying time?) You drink it down, the clover poisons your lungs They welcome you out of spite (Much to your twisted delight) I guess that I will never know (I'll never know) Exactly what they see in you (I'll never know) In the end, I will be the one Standing, and they'll be over you Seems temptation finally found you And now we'll watch you drown In your greed, in your lust Swallow it down if it helps you sleep at night Tell me more about the tour (Hack) About your crowds, and how great they were (Go on) Convince me that it's real art (Smile for the cameras) And assure me that you have a soul What have you become (Trash?) Such a damn disgrace (A waste) They will scream that you're a charlatan When you beg, "What have I done?" Never forget who you are, stick to your guns Reflections live through the night (Are you just a sucker buying time?) You drink it down, the clover poisons your lungs They welcome you out of spite (Much to your twisted delight) I guess that I will never know (I'll never know) Exactly what they see in you (I'll never know) In the end, I will be the one Standing, and they'll be over you

Raise our glass to rock and roll May we live fast and you die old Every time I blink my eyes I hardly realize how many things I've seen, I start remembering Where I've been, where I'm going The world goes racing by, my limit is the sky Once a face in the crowd, now I am facing the crowd We are the music makers (The dreamers of dreams) Raise your glass Sing along to every single song, and Dance around like you can almost taste the beat And when the sweat drips, we will make your heart skip When you're down, I pick you up; one drink should be enough Brothers through everything and always remembering Where we've been and where we're going Remember all that fear? The late nights and the tears? Trying to do what's right while never forgetting why? Long drives home in sun-drenched thoughts (Of that first kiss) Raise your glass Sing along to every single song, and (Song) Dance around like you can almost taste the beat Shut your eyes tight, and when the sweat drips Lose yourself in the night, we will make your heart skip Sing along, and if you're feeling reckless (Song) Jump around like you can almost taste the beat Shut your eyes tight, and when the sweat drips Lose yourself in the night, we will make your heart skip Give yourself to music, let it control you Give yourself to music, and it will set you free (Here's to the bold) Let's raise our glass to rock and roll May we live fast and you die slow A way of life that you will never understand My heart, it lives here, but my home is on the road Over and over and over again You dream, therefore I am Raise your glass Sing along to every single song, and (Song) Dance around like you can almost taste the beat Shut your eyes tight, and when the sweat drips Lose yourself in the night, we will make your heart skip Sing along, and if you're feeling reckless Jump around like you can almost taste the beat Now shut your eyes tight, and when the sweat drips Lose yourself in the night, we will make your heart skip Give yourself to music, let it control you Give yourself to music, and it will be free

These eyes, they have seen the world These feet have walked a thousand miles (My lungs have screamed countless melodies) How do I find the words? The motivation? The energy? (To waste on the crowd) I know I could have it all But there's a price so high Do you feel your fingertips losing their grip? Will they be there when you start to fall? And I will never let go, let go of the night The night we decided we could have it all Chasing a meaningless ending Without a good reason, I'm just second-guessing Because I'm honestly fine beneath the wool (Take the road less traveled, wait to see where it will lead) Maybe I'm just afraid, maybe I am okay Tell me, are you second-guessing? Because you honestly seem to have it all (Are you under control or questioning how this all ends?) I could have it all But there's a price so high (A drop of blood is all it takes) Do you feel your fingertips losing their grip? Will they be there when you start to fall? And I will never let go, let go of the night The night we decided we could have it all Stand and fight, swine Are you man enough to confess your lies? Shaking the Devil's hand, never missing a beat You are a snake amidst the jewels of thieves You crawl, slithering cowardly, fueled by empty respect Your soul reeks of addiction What's the price? Where's the line? Sacrificing my honor just to be what you are? I would rather be put to death Do you feel your fingertips losing their grip? Will they be there when you start to fall? And I will never let go, let go of the night The night we decided we could have it all Will they be there when you start to fall? (And I) Will they be there when you start to fall?

Memories saved, destined to capture Decades passing by A way to remember (We need to remember) Moments fade, leaving to rejoin, decades passing by Let's savor the present, but not lose the future The shifting sands of time pour from the past But you don't know then what you hate to know I try to argue, but I'm not getting through Close your eyes (Ooh) and sing along with me Relive the memory We've been here before, and I'm begging for more A destination so beautiful, I'm speechless (I'm spee—) (I—) Are the (—dle) Devil's (Hands) playground (Problem solved) Get off your ass and pretend that you care Nothing will change if we don't stand and fight Call us to arms into the night If we all take it for granted, music soon will die It's vanishing slowly, through ignorant madness If you see what's wrong, take a stand and scream out loud They want silence, then disappoint them all I try to argue, but I'm not getting through Close your eyes (Ooh) and sing along with me Relive the memory We've been here before, and I'm begging for more A destination so beautiful, I'm speechless (I am speechless) (One, two, three, four) A positive mental attitude (The music survives; dare to put your pen to the page) Open doors and we're walking through (The music survives; fearlessly imagine your own tale) The music survives if we keep the songs alive Step inside and relive the dream (The music survives; dare to put your pen to the page) Of a young boy who tried to sing (The music survives; fearlessly imagine your own tale) And managed to fly, his story should never die (I—) Are the (—dle) Devil's (Hands) playground (Problem solved) Get off your ass and pretend that you care Nothing will change if we don't stand and fight Call us to arms into the night With smiles and open arms We all embrace the underdog Dream Of a yet unvisited Renaissance A time when music will shimmer with hope I try to argue, but I'm not getting through Close your eyes (Ooh) I try to argue, but I'm not getting through Close your eyes (Ooh) and sing along with me Relive the memory We've been here before, and I'm begging for more A destination so beautiful, I'm speechless The music survives (The music survives) If we keep the songs alive (If we keep the songs alive) (The music survives if we keep the songs alive) The music survives (The music survives) If we keep the songs alive (If we keep the songs alive)
