With the sound of the ocean crashing,
7:30 Friday evening,
Everything comes tumbling down

I choke back each tear that bleeds,
I'd rather rest forever in your arms
I'd rather stay here, than go,
But I know that I should leave

As I sit here helpless

(Don't go) You said you wouldn't, You said you wouldn't
(Don't go) You said you wouldn't, You said you couldn't
(Don't go) You said you wouldn't, You said you wouldn't
(Don't go) You said you wouldn't, You said you couldn't

I think of our time together,
Is it fading, or am I dreaming?
Everything you said lives on
I cherish our memories
I wanna kiss your tears away tonight
It's hard to give up the one you never thought you'd leave

Don't go
Don't go
Your eyes, they see through my soul
Don't go
Don't go
You say as I walk out your door

With the sound of the ocean crashing,
7:30 Friday evening,
Everything comes tumbling down

Broken this fragile thing now
And I can't, I can't pick up the pieces
And I've thrown my words all around
But I can't, I can't give you a reason

I feel so broken up (so broken up)
And I give up (I give up)
I just want to tell you so you know

Here I go, scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one
I let go, there's just no one that gets me like you do
You are my only, my only one

Made my mistakes, let you down
And I can't, I can't hold on for too long
Ran my whole life in the ground
And I can't, I can't get up when you're gone

And something's breaking up (breaking up)
I feel like giving up (like giving up)
I won't walk out until you know

Here I go, scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one
I let go, there's just no one who gets me like you do
You are my only my only one

Here I go so dishonestly
Leave a note for you my only one
And I know you can see right through me
So let me go and you will find someone

Here I go, scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one
I let go, there's just no one, no one like you
You are my only, my only one
My only one
My only one
My only one
You are my only, my only one...

Your graceful,
Your grace falls,
Down around me in my eyes
Your lovely,
Your love leaves,
So easily in my eyes

Another day left waiting,
Alone in my room with no calls from you
So I call you up, But you let me down
Falling down around everyone but yourself


I thought that this would never end,
Things were so clear but they fell through
High hopes of problems never failed,
Thinking of the best.



Another day left crying,
with you in my room with nothing left to do
You say that its not right, You said its over now
Stand still annoyed, with no one around

Evolution is a mystery
For the change that no-one sees
God makes a fool of History
Yesterday's too long ago
Don't agree with one alone
Tommorow becomes the place to be

I see the light in the sand
Time to find out, who I am

Standing on the edge of the palisades cliffs
In the shadow of the skyline very far away
A lightning rod that couldn’t pull the storm from me
I was 5 years old my best friends older brother died
He fell from these cliffs
The river washed him away the current pulled him downstream
And our lives float in the headlines, so we parked these cars
Parent’s garage
Listen to the lullaby
Of Carbon Monoxide

War all of the time
In the shadow of the New York skyline
We grew up too fast falling apart
Like the ashes of American flags
If the sun doesn't rise
We'll replace it with an H-bomb explosion
A painted jail cell of blood in the sky like Three Mile Island
Nightmares on TV they used to sing us to sleep
They burn on and on like an oil field
Or a memory of what it felt like
To burn on and on and not just fade away
All those nights in the basement the kids are still screaming
On and on and on and on

War all of the time
In the shadow of the New York skyline
We grew up too fast falling apart
Like the ashes of American flags
And we’re blowing in the wind
We don’t know where to land
So we kiss like little kids
We used to be very tall buildings
We’ve been falling for so long
Now your eyes follow the sign on the edge of town
They offer a welcome when you are leaving

War all of the time
In the shadow of the New York skyline
We grew up too fast falling apart
Like the ashes of American flags
The pieces fall it’s like a last day parade
And the fires in our streets start to rage,
so wave, to the people that long to wave back,
from the fabric of a flag that sang "love all of the time"

War all the time War all the time
All of the time
War all the time
War all the time
All of the time
All of the time
War all of the time
War all of the time
War all of the time
War all of the time
