Attics to Eden

Madina Lake Attics to Eden Lyrics
1.Never Take Us Alive

Sometimes I feel like I'm from another world,
And everything I want in life seems impossible.
Cause people they'll tear you apart.
But in the bottom of our hearts,
The dream's alive inside.
And we won't forget.
So we say...
You can't break, can't change,
can't take us down.
(We love this town)
We'll stand, we'll fight,
and fight as our right
(You'll never take us alive...)
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
(You'll never take us alive...)
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
Wa oh oh ohhhhh...
(You'll never take us alive...)

For the last time I'll give myself to the enemy,
By letting their words just walk all over me.
Cause people they'll tear you apart,
If you are not like them.
And we are different.
Let the war begin.
So we say...
You can't break, can't change,
can't take us down.
(We love this town)
We'll stand, we'll fight,
and fight as our right
(You'll never take us alive...)
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
(You'll never take us alive...)
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
Wa oh oh ohhhhh...
(You'll never take us alive...)

There's no fear inside.
This is our time, no giving up.
When we connect our hearts, to our minds,
There's no stopping us.
So we say...
You can't break, can't change,
can't take us down.
(We love this town)
We'll stand, we'll fight,
and fight as our right
(You'll never take us alive...)
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
(You'll never take us alive...)
Wa oh oh oh oh oh...
Wa oh oh ohhhhh...
(You'll never take us alive...)


2.Let's Get Outta Here

This scene is dull, divine
Memories, they start surrounding me
Mostly in my head
Because I swear I've never been so depressed

I can't stand anyone here
Now I'm thinking 'Let's just disappear!'
And we'll roll the dice
On a beach-front tropical paradise

I'm ready to go where palm trees always blow
I'm sick of this crowd
We don't get known!

I wanna go where there's no one we know
Where stars glitter like a 70's disco
Come on, come on
I say 'Let's get outta here!'

We're gonna go where we have no worries
Wet beaches and dry martinis
Come on, come on
Let's get outta here!
Let's get outta here!

Maybe I'm going crazy
The mainstream never made any sense to me
Always on the outside looking in
But I swear never fitting in

They say we'll never make it
Truth is I couldn't care any less
I think delusions of grandeur are the only gifts I've ever had

We don't get known!

I wanna go where there's no one we know
Where stars glitter like a 70's disco
Come on, come on
I say 'Let's get outta here!'

We're gonna go where we have no worries
Wet beaches and dry martinis
Come on, come on
Let's get outta here!

I'm ready to go where palm trees always blow
I'm sick of this crowd, we don't get known!

I wanna go where there's no one here we know
Where stars glitter like a 70's disco
Come on, come on
I say 'Let's get outta here!'

We're gonna go where we have no worries
Wet beaches and dry martinis
Come on, come on
I say 'Let's get outta here!'

We're gonna go where we have no worries
Wet beaches and dry martinis
Come on, come on
Let's get outta here!
Let's get outta here!
Let's get outta here!


3.Legends

I watch the sun fall down to kill the day
Another part of me just went up in flames
Because I'm bored and dumb and dying to change
It's the simple life driving me insane
Then you explode in my head
And now you're all over me
I come alive with you
You know you set me free
Let's go!

Let's burn this town right to the ground
And we'll go down like every legend before us
We'll part the seas, make history
While chasing dreams like every legend before us

You and me, we hit the streets
Because the thrill of living gives me energy
I wanna steal a car and rob a bank
I wanna find a cure that will save the world
Because our lives are going up in flames
As we watch like it's a movie
I come alive with you
You're like the drug inside of my head

Let's burn this town right to the ground
And we'll go down like every legend before us
We'll part the seas, make history
While chasing dreams like every legend before us

I open up like a window for you
So come on in and destroy me like you do
You come on in after midnight for me
And drag me out while the city falls asleep
Martyrs and kings
Heroes and thieves
We're chasing dreams like every legend before us

Let's burn this town right to the ground
And we'll go down like every legend before us
We'll part the seas, make history
While chasing dreams like every legend before us
Let's burn this town right to the ground
And we'll go down like every legend before us
We'll part the seas, make history
While chasing dreams like every legend before us


4.Criminals

Another weekend comes, I got nowhere to go
So I get real high and head to your window
Watch perfect faces living perfect lives
Until something snaps inside

Now everything looks just like a horror cartoon
And I'm thinking of something that I know I shouldn't do
But nobody knows me and nobody cares
And damn, I feel alive

You think you know who we are
Well, you don't know us at all

We are criminals
The arsonists, the thieves, the rapists
Save yourself
You put us in cages, but you made us criminals
Lost inside your American Dreams
we'll carry this for the quarantine

Now I'm running away
Just like a clumsy machine
And a memory follows like a horrible dream
But I prove to myself I can do anything
And damn, I feel alive

We are criminals
The arsonists, the thieves, the rapists
Save yourself
You put us in cages, but you made us criminals
Lost inside your American Dreams
we'll carry this for the quarantine

For every town that I've been lied to
Been cheated, beaten down
Revenge is such a glamorous feeling
I've been craving for so long

And when you sleep at night
Believe me, I'll be there in the dark
Because we've got nothing to lose
And we don't care who you are

The rich, the beautiful
You don't mean a thing to a scorched earth
Parasites in paradise,
Our time has come to change your life

We are criminals
The arsonists, the thieves, the rapists
Save yourself
You put us in cages, but you made us

The rich, the beautiful
You don't mean a thing to a scorched earth
Parasites in paradise
Our time has come to change your life

The disenchanted, make revolutions to change your life
We're now at war with our future


5.Through The Pain

On the Chicago river after dark
We watch the city lights tear the sky apart
The wind was blowing your hair around
As the scenery explodes, I'll tell you how

I fell into an old cliche
Always on the road, only halfway sane
No hospital can fix what I've become

I've trapped myself in a ring of fire
If I say I'm ok, I'm also a liar
The only way out is through the pain
How am I gonna get through this?

I got so low that I get high
Just to sit and watch the miles go by
Now I'm cold and sweaty with a nauseous heart
I got a million addictions wearing me down

I fell into an old cliche
Always on the road only halfway sane

I've trapped myself in a ring of fire
If I say I'm ok, I'm also a liar
The only way out is through the pain

And as I write these words, my hands start to shake
With trouble sneaking in not a second too late
The only way out is through the pain
Tomorrow I'll start again

And now I'm begging for help
I know I can't get up
Gotta face this one all alone
And if I don't make it
Remember that I'll always be a part of you

I've trapped myself in a ring of fire
If I say I'm ok, I'm also a liar
The only way out is through the pain

And as I write these words, my hands start to shake
With trouble sneaking in not a second too late
The only way out is through the pain
Tomorrow I'll start again


6.Never Walk Alone

Just imagine, what its like to love
yourself from the inside out
Imagine, instead of dread again,
you wake up, now you feel alive

cos you dont have to walk alone
you're not alone right now
you dont have to hate the world
you dont have to walk alone
you're not alone right now

you know its all in your mind
its how you see the world behind your eyes
Just imagine, what its like to sleep at night
with nothing on your mind
imagine, dont regret again,
everything you've just turned out

cos you dont have to walk alone
you're not alone right now
you dont have to hate the world
you dont have to walk alone
you're not alone right now

you know i would do anything
wrap it up and give the world to you
when you think you've had enough
when you think the skies are falling down
just breathe
open up your heart to it
let the sun cover up ______ in your mind

this is not who you are
push it out, crush it, burn it down
burn it down
scatter it on the ocean floor
let the earth clean it out just, breathe
just breathe
oooooh just breathe.


7.Not For This World

I woke up to a dream passing by
It was the middle of the night
Was I awake? Was I asleep?
What was I doing outside?
I saw a man walk from the trees
He came and sat next to me
And he said: 'Boy, if you don't follow your dreams
You'll be dead someday, just like me'
Then he got up and walked away and I started to think
He turned around, I saw his face
and I looked deep in his eyes
And I realized that man was me
You're not for this world, this world is for you
And now is the time
(There's no tomorrow!)
So make the most of every day while you're alive
(Stand for something!)

I contemplate my every day
And everything I've been afraid to change
Never good enough, promptly too late?
Always excuses away
I used to think if I never tried I would never fail
Now I realise, I can do anything
You're not for this world, this world is for you
And now is the time
(There's no tomorrow!)
So make the most of every day while you're alive
(Stand for something!)

Too little too late and then you die
And no one even knows your name
Don't let your light fight from your heart
Your heart gives you the best advice
Believe!
Believe!

You're not for this world, this world is for you
And now is the time
(There's no tomorrow!)
So make the most of every day while you're alive
(Stand for something!)

For what you believe
For what you believe


8.Welcome To Oblivion

On an island out in the sea
I wouldn't care what they think of me
But in this crowded room
I believe that I'm seconds from insanity
Because their eyes just rip me all apart
And my temperamental mind decides that I'm being a man

Welcome to oblivion
Where panic starts to settle in
Welcome to oblivion
Oh, I think I'm losing it

So many voices, I can't even sleep
Typical in night company
They ask questions about my life
'Where is he going? Who am I?'
And those voices rip me all apart
I need medicine to quiet and to find it

Welcome to oblivion
Where panic starts to settle in
And I'm afraid of everything
Oh, I lost my head again
Welcome to oblivion
Where my whole life is caving in
And I can't stand who I am
Oh, I think I'm losing it
I lost my head again
I lost my head again
Then I met you
You were standing all alone, because you felt it too
The world has broken you down
You and me are gonna make it through
Because now we know there's people like us
As I fall apart inside
All of my thoughts collide
And that's no way to live a life
Oh, I think I'm losing it

Welcome to oblivion
Where panic starts to settle in
And I'm afraid of everything
Oh, I lost my head again
Welcome to oblivion
I gotta get off the medicine
Because I can't stand who I am
Oh, I think I'm losing it


9.Silent Voices Kill

They say the darkest hour is just before the dawn
Well I've been up all night, just desperate for the sun
Because I've got a voice or two that can't seem to forget you
They keep me up all night no matter what I do
All these images surrounding me
Over you in my head as I lay still but the silent voices kill
They won't shut up
There's so much noise inside my head
They won't give up
I can't get away from myself
I don't wanna meet someone new
I just wanna be over you
The past is a noose that you have tied my life up to
Now I'm obsessed, I'm sick, I'm desperate, I can't move
All these images surrounding me
Over you in my head as I lay still but the silent voices kill
They won't shut up
There's so much noise inside my head
They won't give up
I can't get away from myself
I don't wanna meet someone new
I just wanna be over you
They don't give up
I can't even hear myself
They won't shut up
There's so much noise inside my head
They won't give up
I can't get away from myself
I don't wanna meet someone new
I just wanna be over you


10.Statistics

You're a wolf, you are
Dressed like a fox
Got me tied up in knots over you
But I think
That I'm just a flavor you crave on instinct
'Cause you don't feel ashamed
But it won't make a difference

I've been wrong so many times
Let's be realistic
I'm only a statistic to you
And it hurts so deep inside
Maybe I'm sadistic
I love what you've inflicted to me

You can take my time
'Cause after all the Earth's just a ball
That revolves around you
And all my friends and family tried to warn me
But like a moth to a flame
Darling, lead the way
'Cause I'm afraid of change
So meet me in your bedroom

I've been wrong so many times
Let's be realistic
I'm only a statistic to you
And it hurts so deep inside
Maybe I'm sadistic
I can't get myself off of you
I'm only a statistic to you
I can't get myself off of

I just caught you like a disease
It's terminal, and I'm going down
But you're a fate that's worse than death
And I've got to get out of this mess
You're a wolf, you are
You are

(I'm only a statistic to you)

I've been wrong so many times
Let's be realistic
I'm only a statistic to you
And it hurts so deep inside
Maybe I'm sadistic
I can't get myself off of you
I'm only a statistic to you
I think I'm addicted to you


11.Friends & Lovers

When I'm afraid the better days are never coming again
I imagine your face and I keep on moving
I'm bound to cry, destined to fly and guaranteed to die
But till the end I've got your face and I keep on moving

I lost my mom when I was only twelve
I was robbed with a gun when I was 21
I crashed my car when I was drunk again
And now, got no friends, got no money
But I keep on learning

You can build a life and have it broken down
You can choose a path and get turned around
You can hate yourself and fall in love again
As for me, I've lost friends, lost lovers
But I've still got my soul

When I'm afraid the better days are never coming again
I imagine your face and I keep on moving
I'm bound to win, I'm bound to loose and all the way I have to
choose
Sometimes it's right, more times it's wrong
But I keep on moving

You can build a life and have it broken down
You can choose a path and get turned around
You can hate yourself and fall in love again
As for me, I've lost friends, lost lovers
But I've still got my soul

On a journey through my head, I stumble on a mess
The bad things from my past are buried, not dead
They haunt you like ghosts, begging me to let them go
But they make me who I am
And I wouldn't change anything

You can build a life and have it broken down
You can choose a path and get turned around
You can hate yourself and fall in love again
As for me, I've lost friends, lost lovers
But I've still got my soul
