We're back again Let's make a toast, come raise your glasses high To every one of you who doubted us We're back again Let's make a toast, come raise your glasses high To every one of us since "karma's a bitch, right?"

Oh, sweet insanity You take my hand and walk me out into the dark We walk this road for hours and hours To the white hills and the oceans On a collision course, to Hell we march We're doomed to this now Oh, the irony If I'm going down, I won't go down alone You're doomed to this one You're doomed to You're doomed to this now You're doomed to Hold your breath, my dear We're going under (We're going under) Hold your breath, my dear We're going under (We're going under) I've walked this road for hours To the white hills and the oceans I search for solace in this toxic land of sin Just let me in (Just let me in) Don't wake me up, their songs are soothing Their wine subdues me Hold your breath, my dear We're going under (We're going under) Hold your breath, my dear We're going under (We're going under) Dreams My mind won't lift me from my dreams And though I try, I can't escape my mind Dreams My mind won't lift me from my dreams And though you try, you can't escape me Now, you've seen what I've become Now, you've seen what I can do Now, you've seen what I'm capable of I've walked this road for hours To the white hills and the oceans I search for solace in this toxic land of sin Just let me in Don't wake me up, their songs are soothing Their wine subdues me Welcome to the diary of a man that lost his mind so long ago Welcome to the shell of a man with a heart so black and cold Over and over in my head

One last time Go We're back again, you know we're not fucking around Got a bottle of Jack in our hands, you trying to keep up, kid? Let's see who hits the ground We've drank the drinks, we've done the drugs Clearly, we don't remember We've come so far, we've shown them all Without us, you'd fall and fade away They say it all breaks down to keeping your feet on the ground My sole intention is keeping my head in the clouds They say that I can't last a day in the real world I say you wouldn't survive one night in mine Notorious and shit, I wouldn't change it for the world I'm infamous, but damn, you can't help but love this shit Notorious and shit, I wouldn't change it for the world I'm infamous, but damn, you can't help but love this shit You can't help but love this shit You can't help but love this shit I'm everything we need to make this scene what it should have been Remember platinum albums, sold-out stadiums, leave it to me Let's tell the truth, not to be rude, but we're all irrelevant This music's dead with a bullet in its head, let's wake it up Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh It's so insane, I'm so insane Going insane, I'm so insane Leave it to me from here Leave it to me from here

It's time to choose your side So choose your side Are you with me or are you on your own?

Ladies and gentlemen, place your fucking bets Here we come Oh, she's down, how very spectacular, what a work of art I've spawned Man, am I proud of myself on this one She's such a fucking masterpiece Self-destruction is such a pretty little thing I know that I should walk away, but I can't bring myself to quit this game She's just a beautiful girl, with the weight of the world on her shoulders I'm just a kick in the teeth from a world that's painted gold Haha, turn the fucking table She's out the door, she's on her ass again, like every night before She's off the wall, out of her fucking mind, she's out of control I was the end of her, in her head, in control Just like before, I should've told you again That I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry Just like before, I should've told you again That I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry Just like before, I should've told you again That I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry Just like before, I should've told you again That I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry Just like before, I should've told you again That I'm so sorry (I'm so sorry), I'm so sorry

You'll never really find those perfect words Something more than just "Goodbye" It's hard to remember the good times when there's just so much heartache But they deserve more than that They deserve more than just one single moment of sadness So just remember That when there's enough love in our hearts to burst Like a fucking supernova Then there sure as hell's enough love in our heart To spark that famous smile We all lose someone at some point in our lives But don't ever let go of that smile Hold on forever Because that's our final dedication

Gather 'round my friends I need a match And only one match I need a match I think it's time I make my own way I'm turning my back on this City And I'm not looking back You'll never hear my name Without your chest in flames I'll make my own mistakes Even though I never learn I'm running from myself If only you could see behind my eyes Run Get up, get up Get on your fucking feet Get up, get up Get on your fucking feet Get up, get up Get up, get up Get up I'll make my own mistakes Even though I never learn I'm running from myself If only you could see behind my eyes Follow me now, I could use some company Bring your friends, and we'll burn this city to the ground Follow me now, I could use some company Bring your friends, and we'll burn the city to the fucking ground Burn their temples And burn their temples The fires fill the skies And the smoke fills my lungs What a beautiful notion A single action brings this city to motion You all deserve to die

I'm so done with it, I won't go back again, and I'm okay with this, that I'll be on my own Until the day I die, which shouldn't be that long So I'll just do what I do and make the most of it I won't fall down again My heart's now dead and gone And I'm still breathing I made it out alive I won't fall down again My heart's now dead and gone And I'm still breathing I made it out alive Made it out alive Oh, fuck, this is fun; I just can't believe I didn't find this before To just indulge even if it kills me Who gives a fuck if we die? Who gives a fuck if we die? Who gives a fuck if we die? Another bottle down You should really try this sometime 'Cause it feels so good You should really try this sometime 'Cause it feels so good Without a care if a heart gets broken You'll all learn in the end that there's a better way Baby, move any closer, you couldn't hurt me if you tried I won't fall down again My heart's now dead and gone And I'm still breathing I made it out alive I won't fall down again My heart's now dead and gone And I'm still breathing I made it out alive Take a seat, my dear Make yourself comfortable, this could take a while Crack another, dear I can see now, and I wouldn't change a thing Life should burn with such a fucking flame If not, you've only got yourself to blame

I'm alive Watch yourself I'm taking over The cracks in the pavement won't break my stride I tread lightly I tread light I'm alive I can't believe what I've become I won't stop breathing Your world is falling at your feet I won't stop breathing Oh my god Yeah I can't believe what I've become I won't stop breathing Your world is falling at your feet I won't stop breathing Just 'cause you're breathing don't mean you're alive Excuses are useless when your mouth's stapled shut I can't believe What you've become I can't believe I can't believe You're drowning in the back room So this is what it feels to waltz So this is what it feels to waltz So this is what it feels to waltz So this is what it feels to waltz So this is what it feels to waltz I must be dreaming Demise, so surreal I must be dreaming I must be dreaming I must be dreaming

So there's no you and me? And we can't live this way forever? You said you'd run away, you said you'd run away with me (You'd run away) I was meant to make you smile I was meant to make you shine I was meant to make you smile I was meant to make you shine I was meant to make you smile I was meant to make you shine So there's no you and me? And we can't live this way forever? You said you'd run away, you said you'd run away with me (You'd run away) I can't see through the tears in my eyes I can't see through the tears in my eyes I can't breathe So now this is over and the world falls upon me I never expected to be here alone The shadows are forming as we burst into flames Why does this end this way?
