Level 1: The Awful Truth (Birth):
Here we are
We're gonna take you back
To a time
When you were young
Our minds race
At the speed of light
Just you try
To keep up with us

Level 2: Life & Death
When I look at the sky
Oh mother, my mother
Fell the pain inside
Oh mother, my mother
This Place is ours
Oh mother, my mother
Feel it in my heart
Oh mother, my mother
We'll kill you again
Bring you to your end
Over your dead head
Over your dead head
Like we've done before
You fucking whore
Over your dead head
Over your dead head

Level 3: That's What She Said:
[verse 1]
You said you wished I hadn't left
Well I guess you should have thought of that
And now I'm looking for something else
Cause you were it
[chorus]
I don't know what I can do
And I don't know where I should go
[verse 2]
I wasted the last 4 years of my life
I've had it with you
I could have had the time of my life
But I had it with you
[chorus]
I don't know what I can do
And I don't know where I should go
[breakdown 1]
Hanging by a string I'd reluctantly
(fall) follow you wherever you go
I left my home for you
You left me for yourself
[chorus]
I don't know what I can do
And I don't know where I should go
[breakdown 2]
If I'm a bad person
What the fuck does that make you
If I'm a bad person
Well then I guess so are you
So are you
[verse 1]
You said you wished I hadn't left
Well I guess you should have thought of that
And now I'm looking for something else
Cause you were it
[altered chorus]
When will you just let this go
When will you just let me know

Level 4: Just Felt Right:
[verse 1&2]
HEY Where the fuck do we go from here
I don't know but I want to steer
Where the fuck do we go from here
I don't know but I want you near
Where the fuck do we go from here
I don't know but I want to steer
And I don't know why I had this fear
I don't know but I want you
[bridge]
I'm not like this x7
I'm not like…
[verse 3]
Everything that I see
Cause I know who I want to be
I'm not like anything I see
Cause I'm not who I want to be

Level 5: Shadows:
[verse 1]
With my arms held to the sky
I am guided by the light
On my steed I ride
Coming close with every stride
To the peril that I may meet
Closing nearer to their feet
My aim will be true
and it's ALL FOR YOU
[chorus]
I will fight in the shadows
Triumph in the light
Bring down the gods above
For MY TRUE LOVE
x2
[verse 2]
Now I'm climbing to the top
With the risk that I may drop
Swaying high above the ground
My will to fight unbound
Now I'm staring in it's soul
With each strike it takes a toll
With my blade at it's facade
I will FELL THIS GOD
[chorus]
I will fight in the shadows
Triumph in the light
Bring down the gods above
For MY TRUE LOVE
x2
I WILL FIGHT IN THE SHADOWS x3
AND TRIUMPH IN THE LIGHT
[verse 1]
With my arms held to the sky
I am guided by the light
On my steed I ride
Coming close with every stride
To the peril that I may meet
Closing nearer to their feet
My aim will be true
and it's ALL FOR YOU
[chorus]
I will fight in the shadows
Triumph in the light
Bring down the gods above
For MY TRUE LOVE
x2

Level 6: World of Ruin:
[chorus]
All of this falls apart again
As if there was something to start with
Tearing this all apart again
There was so much there to start with
[verse 1]
And I'm wandering without you
Searching the whole world for what I've lost
And I know I'll find you somewhere
But maybe not for awhile
Searching deserts and plains we'll be together again
But none of us know when or how
[chorus]
All of this falls apart again
As if there was something to start with
Tearing this all apart again
There was so much there to start with
[verse 2]
And I call you sometimes
But I know you're just so busy
Well maybe so am I
And I'll see you in the next party or the next one
WE'LL BE FRIEND FOR FOR EVER
AND THIS IS MY
WORLD OF RUIN
And this is my world of ruin
And this is our world of ruin

Level 7: Anchor End (AWS Cover):
[verse 1]
The worst writers are the ones
Who fuck up happy endings
The best ones don't bother to type
I've been writing you this letter
In my head for months with no reply
When did your interest in me die
[chorus 1]
Take this sickening shiv
I'll cut all my friends off with
[verse 2]
I lie to those who love me by reciprocating
I wish I felt sincere inside
When I needed you
To make me needy how surprising
You needed nothing of mine
[chorus 2]
Take this sinking ship
I'll take all my friends down with
[gang]
All my friends are anchor end x6
[bridge]
Piss drunks and love
These too are found in gutters
I won't throw up
I'm smarter now
[chorus 2]
Take this sinking ship
I'll take all my friends down with
[gang]
Cause all my friends are anchor end
all my friends are anchor end
[bridge]
Piss drunks and love
These too are found in gutters
I won't throw up
I'm smarter now

Level 8: True Inspiration:
[verse 1]
My true inspiration comes from
All the things I've known
When I feel like giving up I
Look at the things I've done
[chorus]
I don't want to go on like this
I just want to live my life
I don't want to go on like this
I just want to be alright
[verse 2]
My true feelings reflect what I
Do and say today
When I feel like breaking down I
I tune down to A
[chorus]
I don't want to go on like this
I just want to live my life
I don't want to go on like this
I just want to be alright

Level 9: So Late:
[verse 1]
Well it's so late
And I
Can't sleep or dream anymore
I wander now
In these sheets
So restless kicking what's the time
I've just got too much on my mind
[chorus]
So here I am
So lost in my thoughts
And dreams
I need to scream
I'll never wake up
Never wake up no more
No, never again
[verse 2]
There's just so much
Weighing down on me
I need a minute to breath
[chorus]
So here I am
So lost in my thoughts
And dreams
I need to scream
I'll never wake up
Never wake up no more
No, never again

Level 10: The March
[verse 1]
OH SHIT
Well I'm on a roll now
And I don't know what's next
But I don't think I care
I'll just keep doin' my thing
As if I have a plan
I'll look on the horizon
I'll face anything that comes my way
[chorus]
I can take care of my fucking self
And I wont be thrown on a fucking shelf
OH YEAH I've got this under control x2
[verse 2]
WELL here we are again
No worries I've got this 'til the end
Cruisin' 'round like we own this town
Just freak with a flock we still own this block
When everything's up you know it's gonna go down
But I'll keep my head up
Take one step
Keep marching on like there's nothin' wrong
When it's about to go off like a bomb
[chorus]
I can take care of my fucking self
And I wont be thrown on a fucking shelf
OH YEAH I've got this under control x2
[chorus]
