The Ending Is Just The Beginning

The Living End The Ending Is Just The Beginning Lyrics
1.The Ending Is Just The Beginning Repeating (Single)

We are the wounded soldiers
We are the refugees
We are the dead eyed workers
I am you, and you are me

We are the model citizens
We are the absentees
We are the politicians
I am exactly like you, you're just like me

We are the tired and weary
We are the restless and bored
We are the start of something much better
We're the end of what came before

The ending is just the beginning repeating
The ending is just the beginning repeating
Everything goes away
But comes back some day
The ending is just the beginning repeating

We're not always survivors
There are no guarantees
We have our drink
We drink to our health
And I am like you, so have one on me

We're getting tired of waiting
And the rain always comes with the storm
And they always say lightning never strikes twice
But then came the knock at the door

The ending is just the beginning repeating
The ending is just the beginning repeating
Everything goes away
But comes back some day
The ending is just the beginning repeating

We are the tired and weary
We are the restless and bored
We are the start of something much better
We're the end of what came before

We're getting tired of waiting
So we're running into the storm
And they always say lightning never strikes twice
But then came the knock at the door


1.Heatwave

The hot ground burns the soles off my feet
Above the sky is turning red
Pray that there will be a cool change
Before we all go up in flames

This is a desert land where the sun burns on the sand
Will it ever rain?
The weatherman says it's getting hotter
But he don't need to tell me what I already know

And you wait and you wait and you wait
This is a heatwave, 'cause you can't get away, get away
This is a heatwave, this is a heatwave
This is a heatwave, oh

Dark clouds threatening to break down
Faces hiding in the shade, lightening twisted up like wire
Minor birds falling out of the sky
A nation melting in the sun

This is a desert land where the sun burns on the sand
Will it ever rain?
The weatherman says it's getting hotter
But he don't need to tell me what I already know

And you wait and you wait and you wait
This is a heatwave, 'cause you can't get away, get away
This is a heatwave, a heatwave
A heatwave, a heatwave, a heatwave

I'm not waiting for the heat to drop
And I'm not waiting for the bomb to drop
Time's up now, too late
What have you got?

And you wait and you wait and you wait
This is a heatwave
'Cause you can't get away, get away
This is a heatwave

And you wait and you wait and you wait
This is a heatwave, 'cause you can't get away, get away
This is a heatwave, this is a heatwave
This is a heatwave, whoa


2.Machine Gun

Like a machine gun you command
Always in control and making plans
Never one to give a second chance

And never one to walk away
Or settle for the easy way out
Never one to walk away
'Til you lose your game, said

Battle in the old town, battle in the old town
They'll take it all away from you
You'd better give it up now, you'd better give it up now
They'll take it all away from you

You're getting closer to the edge
Shot, paranoid, running scared
And you're about to lose it, so choose it
Don't do what you'll regret

And never one to walk away
Or settle for the easy way out
Never one to walk away
'Til you lose your name, said

Battle in the old town, battle in the old town
They'll take it all away from you
You'd better give it up now, you'd better give it up now
They'll take it all away from you

I see through you, you
I see through you, you
I see through you, you
I see through you, you


3.In The Morning

Typical morning, suburban town
Waking up to familiar sound
Father complaining about the company rules
Mother does her best now
Makes sure the kids aren't late for school

Behind the brave face, mother holds the fear
She looks for the answers in the pages of the new idea
She knows his secret, where it is he goes
Into the arms of another
Wait for the children to come home, then she'll go

Leave in the morning
Leave in the morning
Leave in the morning
Leave in the morning

And in the morning this is no accident, no
Everything was planned
Nobody ever really tried to understand
That we need to get out
But we're never gonna leave this suburban town

A typical evening, suburban town
We're going to sleep to familiar sound
Father complaining about the company rules
Mother isn't here anymore
The kids are always late for school, oh no

Leave in the morning
Leave in the morning
Leave in the morning
Leave in the morning

But we're never gonna leave here


4.For Another Day

On another day, we will run through life
We will sacrifice, never afraid to try
On another day, we will learn to live without
All our fears and doubts, no tomorrow, only now

If we only have our rights for another day
If we only have our hearts for another day
And if we only have our rights for another day
Then we will have our time again

On another day, we will win the fight
And step into the light, only fail when we don't try
So we will stand up when we believe
There's no limit to what we can achieve
Every moment here is a moment to be seized

If we only have our rights for another day
If we only have our hearts for another day
And if we only have our rights for another day
Then we will have our time again

We run through life never afraid to try
We're in a race but there's no prize
We won the war but at what price

If we only have our rights for another day
If we only have our hearts for another day
And if we only have our rights for another day
Then we will have our time again

We will have our time
We will have our time again


5.Song For The Lonely

Life for a razorblade, history on replay
Heading for Judgment Day
The architects of fate
Decide the next mistake

This is an energy, this is the only way
No time to hesitate
I'm getting on that train
This revolution's late

This song's for the lonely

Another chance to take
Another point to make
Why do I hesitate?
C'mon and give me a sight, sight

We're in the moment now
We're back inside the crowd
There is no slowing down
The rhythm of the times, times

We always knew that
We would win the war
We never knew what
We were fighting for

This song's for the lonely
You're not the only one
This song's for the lonely

Love is a warning but we don't believe
Love is whatever we want it to be
Love is divided with nothing in between
We're living inside a dream

We always knew that
We would win the war
We never knew what
We were fighting for

This song's for the lonely
You're not the only one
This song's for the lonely


6.Ride The Wave Boy

Standing on the beach
Watching the waves crash on the sand
He doesn't care about tomorrow
He's got a better plan

He's got a man uptown
Who supplies him with a cheap escape
He's a man on a mission, he ain't ever gonna listen
Got a ticket on a one way train
But he's heading the wrong way

Boy
Ride the wave, boy
Ride the wave, boy
Ride the wave, boy

Hand on the trigger
His whole world marches by
The waves are getting bigger
And he's out on a mission to chase the next ride

Getting ready for one last trip
And then he's gonna give it away
But the cards of life don't fall the same way twice
And before you can leave the game
The dealer must get paid

Boy
Ride the wave, boy
Ride the wave, boy
Ride the wave, boy
Ride the wave, boy

Well, I was too busy to stop and see
The desperation in your eyes
You're lost inside a never-ending dream
Chasing the next ride

He crawls down to the edge of the water
He's drifting away
They never found him, they thought he had drowned
But it didn't matter anyway
He'd be on the next wave

Boy
Ride the wave, boy
Ride the wave, boy
Ride the wave, boy
Ride the wave, boy
Ride the wave, boy


7.Resist

I never thought that it would come to this
Yeah, I never thought that it would come to this
The money's on the table
And there ain't no way that anybody's gonna resist

This is no place for the damned
We have sold our father's land
We'll never feel it as long as we don't resist

You can't trust a word they say
'Cause they're only gonna send you away
Wherever our fate lies it couldn't be worse than this

I've seen the lights go out on Broadway
I saw the Roman Empire burning to the ground

And not one life was spared
When the bell tolled for the dead
We'll never feel it as long as we don't resist

There is no time for regret
Soon they'll be ringing the bells again
We'll never feel as long as we don't resist

Treated like a criminal, an animal
Behind the gates of hell
Treated like a criminal, an animal
Behind the gates of hell
And if you let me go, I swear to you that I won't tell

Every night I have the same dream
That I am old and we are free
Out there beyond the gates, a better life awaits
Somewhere else, somewhere else
Somewhere else, somewhere else

And not one life was spared
When the bell tolled for the dead
Searching for salvation
A helping hand becomes a fist

There is no time for regrets
Soon they'll be ringing the bells again
They'll never feel it as long as they don't resist

No one, no one, no one, no one
No one to resist
There's no one, no one, no one, no one
No one to resist


8.Away From The City

Good evening
First up tonight
Thousands of people are leaving the city

This ain't no holiday, this is your life
You better get ready to put up a good fight
They got a plan to make a man out of you
You might even make it to the 6 o'clock news

This ain't no holiday, this is their life
They step from the shadows and into the night
Killing time is a brand new career
This is a jungle, there ain't no rules here

Away from the city, away from the light
Away from the city tonight
I'll go anywhere, just get me out of here
Away from the city tonight
I just hope that I survive

Daylight is fading to gray
I hear the boot stomp of the night brigade
Down on the corner bloodstain on the ground
In the court of disorder a new king is crowned

Take me away from the city, away from the light
Away from the city tonight
I'll go anywhere, just get me out of here
Away from the city tonight
I just hope that I survive to see daylight

Where will you go when there's no one to trust?
What will you do when it's them against us?
Where will you go when there's no one to trust?
(The evil takes care of his own, that's the truth)
What will you do when it's them against us?
(They're out of their cage and they're on the loose)

Get me outta here
(Where will you go when there's no one to trust?)
Get me outta here
(What will you do when it's them against us?)

Get me outta here
(Where will you go when there's no one to trust?)
Get me outta here
(What will you do when it's them against us?)

Away from the city, away from the light
Away from the city tonight
I'll go anywhere just get me out of here
Away from the city tonight

Away from the city, away from the light
Away from the city tonight
I just hope that I survive
Yeah, I hope that I survive


9.United

Why should I be responsible? Why should I take the blame?
When both of us have the power, the power to change
There is no misunderstanding, there is no confusion here
I'm feeling disconnected, swallowed by fear

Well, I don't want to be a victim or a casualty
No, I don't want to be a soldier on the battlefield of love
Battlefield of love, the battlefield of love

And I don't wanna be a victim or a casualty
No, I don't wanna be alone here on the battlefield of love
Battlefield of love, the battlefield of love

We stand alone and divided
We stand alone and divided

We stand as one, we're united
We stand as one, we're united
We stand alone and divided
We stand as one, we're united

Why should we be responsible? Why should we take the blame?
When all of us have the power, the power to change

Well, I don't want to be a victim or a casualty
No, I don't want to be a soldier on the battlefield of love
Battlefield of love, the battlefield of love

And I don't wanna be a victim or a casualty
No, I don't wanna be alone here on the battlefield of love
Battlefield of love, the battlefield of love

We stand alone and divided
We stand alone and divided

We stand as one, we're united
We stand as one, we're united
We stand alone and divided
We stand as one, we're united

And I don't wanna be a victim of your life
And I don't wanna be a victim of your life
And I don't wanna be alone here

And I don't wanna be a victim of your life
And I don't wanna be a victim or your life
And I don't wanna be alone


10.Universe

To live, to breathe, to die
Give me one reason not to try
Why should I be afraid?

One life, one mind, one day
Give me one reason not to stay
Why should I be afraid?

Racing across the sky
Into the heart of the sun
How will we ever survive

Hey, I'm on the edge of the earth
This is my universe
Traveling the speed of light
One day at a time
And I don't need to be saved

I'm on the edge of the earth
This is my universe
Traveling the speed of light
One day at a time
And I don't need to be saved

Year 1969
Transmission, god is on the line
Why should we be afraid?

One life, one mind, one day
Nothing is standing in my way
Why should I be afraid?

And if we toe the line
They'll make us change our mind
How will we ever survive

Hey, I'm on the edge of the earth
This is my universe
Traveling the speed of light
One day at a time
'Cause I don't need to be saved

I'm on the edge of the earth
This is my universe
Traveling the speed of light
One day at a time
And I don't need to be saved

And if we draw the line
They'll make us change our mind
How will we ever survive

Hey, I'm on the edge of the earth
This is my universe
Traveling the speed of light
One day at a time
And I don't need to be saved

I'm on the edge of the earth
This is my universe
Traveling the speed of light
One day at a time
And I don't need to be saved

We are the wounded soldiers
We are the refugees
We are the dead eyed workers
I am you and you are me

We are the model citizens
We are the absentees

I am exactly like you, you're just like me

We are the tired and weary
We are the restless and bored
We are the start of something much better
We're the end of what came before

The ending is just the beginning repeating

Everything goes away but comes back some day
The ending is just the beginning repeating

We're not always survivors
There are no guarantees
We have our drink, we drink to our health
And I am like you, so have one on me

We're getting tired of waiting
And the rain always comes with the storm
And they always say lightning never strikes twice
But then came the knock at the door

The ending is just the beginning repeating

We're the end of what came before

We're getting tired of waiting
So we're running into the storm
And they always say lightning never strikes twice

12.Do You Remember

The life
Do you remember life
Time
Do you remember the time

Think of how we were yesterday
Laughing at the things we used to say
Now it's disappeared without a trace
I remember the time but I forget the place

Do you remember the life we had
Move on, move on, move on, move on
Do you remember the life we had
Move on, move on, move on

And so it remains
That we can not stay the same
But we will try
Not gonna let them decide

How can you pretend everything's okay
Trying to defend what you can't replace
You've got it wrong, they've lead you on
They've treated you for a fool for much too long

'Cause everybody grows up someday and moves on
Everybody grows up someday and moves on

So it remains life has to change
How much longer can we stay the same
So it remains life has to change
How much longer can we stay the same

The pain we can not feel
The change we can not see
The lies we can not hear
We have to disappear
The pain we can not feel
The change we can not see
The lies we can not hear
We have to disappear

Do you remember the life
Do you remember the life
Do you remember the life
Do you remember the life we had
