[Verse 1]
She said
"You best pay attention, love
I have some things to say
And dearest, if you will allow me
I shall go on
Rule one, you should resign yourself to knowing
You'll hate what you've become
And you'll never know how far you've gone
What did you expect me to say, my darling?
What did you expect me to say?
So burn, burn away
You're never getting back what was never yours anyway
What have you got?"
[Chorus]
So get up, get up
You're only wasting time
The things you waste, well, they keep you in linе
When suspicions keep you safe
(And superstitions keep you sanе)
You do your worst, hold your course, follow the road home again
[Post-Chorus]
You've got so much to lose
[Verse 2]
Onwards I press through my homemade abyss
And I hope to grow towards the light
And I need to understand when I do the best I can
Sometimes that still isn't right
And I'm tired of my excuses
We all make mistakes sometimes
[Chorus]
So get up, get up
You're only wasting time
The things you waste, well, they keep you in line
When suspicions keep you safe
(And superstitions keep you sane)
You do your worst, hold your course, follow the road home again
[Post-Chorus]
Tell the truth or live for lies
You'll spend your time on suicide
Just one bridge that I won't burn, the one that leads you home
I know where we go when we die
I'll keep you safe, keep you inside
But you know, you're still alive
You best remember, you best remember, you best remember
(You won't feel this way forever)
[Bridge]
And stay alone and stay safe, but you'll get nowhere at all
Truth is you're never more alive than in the moments when you fall
I know that you are burning, you know we're burning too
It makes me accountable
And stay alone and stay safe, but you'll get nowhere at all
Truth is you're never more alive than in the moments when you fall
I know that you are burning, you know we're burning too
I'd char myself to ashes if it would light the way for you
[Chorus]
So get up, get up
You're only wasting time
The things you waste, well, they keep you in line
When suspicions keep you safe
(And superstitions keep you sane)
You do your worst, hold your course, follow the road home again
