Versus The World

Versus The World Versus The World Lyrics
1.Transmission 0617


2.Is There No End?

Welcome to the failure, the drinks are on me
We'll cheer to how you let me down
Disappointment's a bitter taste that burns
On its way down, we could only point
And laugh at your spirit as it drowns

Is there no end to how we'll go?
Do we really have to kill ourselves
Before we know?

Let these words rip through you just like bullets
Tear through flesh
We could rest in peace remembering we stole your best

Is there no end to how we'll go?
Do we really have to kill ourselves
Before we know?
Do we really have to?


3.Don't Let Go

This drug has eaten up my body
My cells are at the mercy of this plague
But the antidote is somewhere in this room
Or the antidote is gone

Don't let go, don't let go
'Cause this drug can't beat us both
Don't let go cause you're fighting for us both

These temple walls have been breached and now they're broken
Ruins tell a story of every battle lost

Don't let go, don't let go
'Cause this drug can't beat us both
Don't let go cause you're fighting for us both

It's too soon to quit, but its too late to try
Just keep me breathing, I won't let go


4.Ghost In The Bottle

The dream is over
And the last shots were fired
The eulogy repeated seems so uninspired
The casualties were counted
And were the only ones dead

Brother I'm drowning in
Our own blood we've lost

But I've heard the ghosts in these bottles
Will sing our song long after we've gone

So let's own this
That we broke this, here's to the end
So let's face it but embrace it
Here's to the end
Goodbye my friend

The trenches won't be the same without you
Your memory will always be there
I know exactly what everything
You went through
Remember I was right there next to you

And I wish the ending was
As beautiful as the story


5.Medellin

Dear God, if you can hear me then save me
From myself, 'cause I'm gone and close to dying
From all the things I've done

I guess it's true, you become the things you do

Kill me, taste me, I need this to burn so I know
What I'm wasting, breathe in deep and hold me there

Don't inhale till I'm safe and sound and you've
Promised I'm fine

Body and mind

My God what have I done? have I forgotten who I am?
There was a time when I was strong enough to keep myself from
all of this
But all of this just felt so fucking good
But now I'm suffocating

Can you feel me inside of you?
Swimming safely inside of you
I would die here if you let me
Let me fill you up till our hearts explodes


6.Victim

Oh victim your tired song has fallen on deaf ears
Oh victim your cried made it to heaven
But the angel didn't care

'So I'll just give up from this 90 foot drop
Maybe they'll hear me when my fist hit the gates!'

These graves that you've made they're cold now
And they bite down to the bone.. victim I know
So bury them deep so the scars don't show..
..Victim I know

Oh victim the enemy is closer than you know
It hides inside where every hit you've taken
Held a knife up to your throat.

'So I'll just give up from this 90 foot drop
Maybe they'll hear me when my fist hit the gates!'

These graves that you've made they're cold now
And they bite down to the bone.. victim I know
So bury them deep so the scars don't show..
..Victim I know


7.Blasphemy And Treason

I think it's sad you lost your faith, she said
I think it's sad you don't believe
I think it's sad that you think we'll all be safe, I said
I think it's sad, you're so naive

So look what I've destroyed, it's something so beautiful

Make me believe, ignite this fire that died in me
Make me believe, resuscitate the soul that died in me

Does this blood flow without a reason?
Or does your father's heart ache when I cry?
Does blasphemy always equal treason?
Or does nothing happen when we die?

So look what I've destroyed, it's something so meaningful

Make me believe, ignite this fire that died in me
Make me believe, resuscitate the soul that died in me

My words... my eyes... they're empty but I'm no fool
Your crutch, your faith, they're empty
I'm not sure where I stand
But I'm afraid I stand alone


8.Love Every Scar

I fell in love every scar on her wrists
And sad eyes told a story of every
Great thing that she'd missed
She doesn't call here anymore
She didn't even say goodbye
Just a kiss blown to
The wind we didn't catch in time

This can't be right the night has just begun
And I already feel like I'm dead
I know I shouldn't hate myself
I should be blaming this on you instead
Instead I'll rewind these weeks in my mind
And I don't think I'll find any comfort
In this coffin built for two

Love every scar a trophy that proves
How human we are love every scar
There's one for you, wherever you are

It's hard to believe that smile held a girl
That was hurt so badly it's hard to believe
That those hands that held our hearts
Hold the blade that cut you
And turned you into the girl it hurt to talk about
Cut you and turned you into the girl
We couldn't live without
And I realise this feeling gets stronger
If we wait any longer
I wish you had only let us in


9.Seconds To Shine

This is the moment only seconds to shine
I've had years to prepare
If the joys in the chase I could die in this place
With a smile on my face

If we could see us now
Would we make ourselves proud
You know I thought my whole
Life was meant for this
You know I fought and I swear
I would die for this
For one last chance to make this ours

Embellish this moment most people live their
Whole lives without feeling this good
Disguised in this smile is fear laced with hope
That wont die but disguised in this hope
Is a doubt in my soul thats been eating me alive


10.If I Died

If I died tomorrow would be proud
Of the things that I've done
In my final moments when let go
Will I feel like my battle was won

This is my final attempt
To take something from this life
This is my futile attempt to
To make something of my life

It's come to this
This is my last shot to hit or miss
And I've failed before
This is my last shot to hit or miss

If I died tomorrow would I hate
All the things that I've tried
In my final moments when I let go
What would flash before my eyes

If I died tomorrow
How would I explain all this
If I died tomorrow
How much of you would I miss


11.Forgive Me

Red eyes just keep my heart beating
Your secret's safe with me
Just drive, I've broken our mirror
So our past won't look so tempting

I never thought it'd feel this good to quit
Failure tastes so sweet
I'm not afraid anymore, forgive me

I'll swing here, I'll hang from this rope
Just at least until they've found me
Stay close dear, the note on the floor says
I wish that you were here

I never thought it'd feel this good to quit
Failure tastes so sweet
I'm not afraid anymore, forgive me

So long to the future I never
Had a chance anyway

So when I use my uses I get a
Problem with my brain
This is a problem so intense
I cannot explain
Over and over
Which way to turn
Theres no way out
At this point I'm not concerned!

I never thought it'd feel this good to quit
Failure tastes so sweet
I'm not afraid anymore, forgive me

I never thought it'd feel this good to quit
Failure tastes so sweet
I'm not afraid anymore, forgive me


12.In Spite Of The World

I woke up from this dream,
To find that I was sleeping,
So I went back to sleep,
And dreamed I was awake,
I locked myself inside,
While you were on the outside,
I stood outside and watched,
But I couldn't let you in,

If you could only see that,
You that is a part of me,
Maybe then you'd see,
Inside yourself,

Wrote a letter to myself,
But I couldn't bear to send it,
So I tore it up and,
Wrote a letter to a friend,

If you could know that growing up,
Means letting go,
Maybe then you'd grow up,
By yourself,

We're growing up again,
We're learning to accept,
That all good things,
Must come to an end,
We're growing up again,
We're trying to understand,
What it's like to let go,
Of a friend,
