The cycle repeated, as explosions broke in the sky
All that I needed, was the one thing I couldn’t find
And you were there at the turn
Waiting to let me know

We’re building it up, to break it back down
We’re building it up, to burn it down
We can’t wait, to burn it to the ground

The colors conflicted
As the flames, climbed into the clouds
I wanted to fix this
But couldn’t stop from tearing it down

And you were there at the turn
Caught in the burning glow
And I was there at the turn
Waiting to let you know

We’re building it up, to break it back down
We’re building it up, to burn it down
We can’t wait, to burn it to the ground

You told me yes, you held me high
And I believed when you told that lie
I played soldier, you played king
And struck me down, when I kissed that ring

You lost that right, to hold that crown
I built you up, but you let me down
So when you fall, I’ll take my turn
And fan the flames as your blazes burn

And you were there at the turn
Waiting to let me know

We’re building it up, to break it back down
We’re building it up, to burn it down
We can’t wait, to burn it to the ground

When you fall, I’ll take my turn
And fan the flames
As your blazes burn

We can’t wait
To burn it to the ground

When you fall, I’ll take my turn
And fan the flames
As your blazes burn

We can’t wait
To burn it to the ground

Forfeit the game before somebody else takes you out of the frame
And put your name to shame cover up your face
You can’t run the race the pace is too fast
You just won’t last

You love the way I look at you
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through
You’ll take away If I give in
My life, my pride is broken

You like to think you’re never wrong (You live what you’ve learned)
You have to act like you’re someone (You live what you’ve learned)
You want someone to hurt like you (You live what you’ve learned)
You want to share what you’ve been through (You live what you’ve learned.. learned.. learned..)

You love the things I say I’ll do
The way I hurt myself again just to get back at you
You take away when I give in
My life, my pride is broken

You like to think you’re never wrong (You live what you’ve learned)
You have to act like you’re someone (You live what you’ve learned)
You want someone to hurt like you (You live what you’ve learned)
You want to share what you’ve been through (You live what you’ve learned.. learned.. learned..)

Forfeit the game before somebody else takes you out of the frame
And put your name to shame cover up your face
You can’t run the race the pace is too fast
You just won’t last

You like to think you’re never wrong – Forfeit the game (You live what you’ve learned)
You have to act like you’re someone – Forfeit the game (You live what you’ve learned)

I dreamed I was missing
You were so scared
But no one would listen
Cause no one else care

After my dreaming
I woke with this fear
What am I leaving
When I’m done here?

So if you’re asking me
I want you to know

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I’ve done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

And don’t resent me
And when you’re feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Don’t be afraid
I’ve taken my beating
I’ve shed but I’m me

I’m strong on the surface
Not all the way through
I’ve never been perfect
But neither have you

So if you’re asking me
I want you to know

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I’ve done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

Don’t resent me
And when you’re feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting all the hurt inside
You’ve learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come
And save me from myself
I can’t be who you are

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I’ve done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

Don’t resent me
And when you’re feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting all the hurt inside
You’ve learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come
And save me from myself
I can’t be who you are

When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I’ve done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed

Don’t resent me
And when you’re feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest

Forgetting all the hurt inside
You’ve learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come
And save me from myself
I can’t be who you are
I can’t be who you are
