Lovelost 00:57
Could you ride the resistance to the edge of the world? Could you reclaim the night for the Lovelost, the brave and the broken? We will ride the resistance, to the edge of the world We will reclaim the night for the Lovelost…

Get ready for the show Forever walking the streets alone I can’t stand by as he pulls up towards you, his respect clearly left at the door She said to me, I never had a clue if I was worth anything It’s my destiny, the only thing I’ll ever own is what you see Storm the streets My dying wish would be to watch them suffer, watch them bleed They put you on the streets at seventeen So I’ll be in demand when the clock strikes twelve Just listen for his step and wait for the call A night of pretty lights and scary fights you know too well But if the slipper fits, just take a hint and drop the chandelier on the ball Tables have turned as you part the floor Storm the streets my dying wish would be To watch them suffer, to watch them bleed Can you resist to pay them what they need She can’t be saved From him, no turning back This caste is all you have This is your chance to prove you can win the game The spine of the hound is the hardest back to break Lovelost brothers and sisters come on stand up Courageous contagious united in Lovelost brothers and sisters come on back me up Get the rage out and get up I’m the rogue who saw you from afar A fleeting memory guiding the sentry As we dance into the night Our chemistry collides and if the ox should show We’ll take him down tonight My dying wish to show the world how well the slipper fits Just give yourself a chance to prove that, forever starts with me Storm the streets my dying wish would be To watch them suffer, to watch them bleed Can you resist to pay them what they need She can’t be saved From him, no turning back Just throw away your caste This is your chance to prove you can win the game The spine of the hound is the hardest back to break

You build me high To watch me fall Straight ahead don’t look twice Plan alone for days, alone for days Contemplating all you know You build me high just watch me fall I’ll never know a life outside these lines This is the start of the end for us all I’ll never get the days back on my own Look at me, look at me wasting away The look in your eyes, I feel empty Look at me listening into every word you say You build me up just to watch me react to every little sound That I hear you make I’m treading on eggshells, treading on eggshells Every time I cross you with every mistake You build me high just to watch me burn I couldn’t reason, I couldn’t win with you I know it’s you against the world But then I’ll get to be back on my own Look at me, look at me wasting away The look in your eyes, I feel empty Look at me listening into every word you say Start listening To the signs to the echoes in the cave filling me the confidence to blame Abused your attitude will fill me with the fire inside The fire inside will bring you to the brink To the brink I will end the suffering, You promised me everything I need you to understand there’s nothing left for me Look at me, look at me wasting away The look in your eyes, I feel empty Look at me listening into every word you say Start Listening To the signs to the echoes in the cave filling me with the confidence to blame Abused your attitude will fill me with the courage to refuse From the look in your eyes I feel empty

Carousel! Hearts united at a glance, I like you, you love me So what’s the chance Each day we break the air with silence. So who’s waving my banner now? This conversation is the cruelest shackle That brings me to the wall Could you wager the moment it started A second glance just to know if I’m feeling this tonight I saw the fire I saw the ignition but now I see you in plain sight This Is The End Never forget the ways you held us for ransom You’re living life like it’s one night to remember Saved by sacrifices in my life It wasn’t fate or fucking destiny serving a purpose Don’t ever ask cause I won’t tell you that I know I’m the archer you’re the anchor on this violent carousel Is this the life you dreamed of each time you thought of us I feel defeated in this corner Watch me back down while you show off Your pretty smile, your gorgeous teeth and your bright blue eyes Too many misdemeanours to count, too many times I would self doubt React to everything I do I've got the ammo to load, the resolution to prove Your marching on just isn’t going to help your little crusade for what’s wrong and right No cheaters allowed, get to the back of the line Stick to your guns, no need to think I’m sure we’ll be just fine Saved by sacrifices in my life It wasn’t fate or fucking destiny serving a purpose Don’t ever ask cause I won’t tell you that I know I’m the archer you’re the anchor on this violent carousel I’m just fine This is the end for misdirection I couldn’t resist to play one last time I’m searching for the satisfaction that you denied I’ll go back to the time when we met young lovers hypotised by chemistry This brain disease I’ll find a way to stop this happening I’ll pay for this ride one last time Saved by sacrifices in my life It wasn’t fate or fucking destiny serving a purpose Don’t ever ask cause I won’t tell you that I know I’m the archer you’re the anchor on this violent carousel

With feathers we all flock above the sky into the clouds How can I judge the actions of a child who loves with the grace of a dove Of a dove It’s only all I know Down these dark alleyways, we shiver as we speak Expel your demons from your conscience I’ll pledge to make my family see Even if we could fight tradition as we know it, they’ll never understand us If we had an answer for everything Thinking I craved to be the one to pick you Up off the ground wipe the tears away I can’t stand to look in your eyes and tell you What you need you’ll never see Dear daughter I hope you can save me I hope you can save me From the pain of the feeling My heart is swelling up into my chest And when I call you I’m under house arrest Everyday for a lifetime, lets break away from the lifeline I never thought he’d turn to me This father fail no hope of salvaging The beast alive will set me free I craved to be the one to pick you Up off the ground wipe the tears away I can’t stand to look in your eyes and tell you What you need you’ll never see Dear daughter I hope you can save me I hope you can save me from this feeling inside I hope you can save me from facing the truth of us These riddles have been locked inside Unknowing whether we should or keep the disguise They couldn’t tell us if we’re wrong or if we’re right All I can wish is we’ll see the stars someday From up above the earth will fly where peace is the only victory I’ll be the one to pick you Up off the ground wipe the tears away I can’t stand to look in your eyes and tell you I am the coward, I’m the cheat Dear daughter I hope you can save me

Hark the angels, I cannot hear your song Some guidance would be helpful these days I can’t go on What’s my cue to call in I can’t navigate the stars tonight Lost signals in a silhouette I’m afraid to recognise this time I’ll fight the attitudes I’ll fight the raging herd against What I feel and all I know is the subject So can we lay this avalanche to rest? We’ll make our move at dawn They cannot touch us from here on in We’re running blind into the stars Huntress I couldn’t keep you safe against the rise They’re marching on for king and country For what they feel is right Huntress I cannot tell their faces from their lies There’s no one left to count on nothing stopping us from taking flight I’ve arrived to see the towers fall, take the name of the hero that stands The mark of a leader, my weapon of choice You couldn’t resist by my hand We’ll make our move at dawn They cannot touch us from here on in I’m running blind into your arms Huntress I couldn’t keep you safe against the rise They’re marching on for king and country For what they feel is right Huntress I cannot tell their faces from their lies There’s no one left to count on nothing stopping us from taking flight They didn’t tell us We couldn’t know We’re the victims of it all We hold the privilege of the few Behold the den of lions fighting tooth and claw for you We will rise up, this territorial world begins to fall And all that’s left to die for is our desire to be at one with all Huntress I couldn’t keep you safe against the rise They’re marching on for king and country For what they feel is right Huntress I cannot tell their faces from their lies There’s no one left to count on nothing stopping us from taking back our lives
