lyrics

I know regret like a
Friend I held to die
I guess I’m cynical
And now the wolves are in the
Throne room standing by
To burn the citadel

You were young
You never had a chance to
Face the sun
I hate whatever
You’ve become
But you should know I’ll never
Leave here without you

We are animals
Slaves to change through
Natural perfection
Natural selection

And now the light cuts out
Cause we’re going down
It’s unforgivable
When the storm wakes up we better
Learn to drown
Become invisible

I was young
I never really learned to
Bite my tongue
And now the smoke will
Fill my lungs
You know I’ll never
Leave here without you

We are animals
We can’t help holding on
To life
To life
So say goodbye
