lyrics

Look, this place is on fire we can’t stay here anymore. These walls they are tired of hearing the sad songs. So pick up your things and leave this house, this home. So pick up your things and leave this shell of me.

Wake, your eyes they are drifting as darkness creates, the perfect accomplice to a compelling fate. So pick up your things and leave this house, this home. So pick up your things, I am already gone.

Wait, don’t forget all the stories that we never made. Don’t forget all the moments we traded for mistakes. So pick up your things and leave this house, this home. So pick up your things, now you are on your own.

Tell me why you had to lie, tell me how you felt inside when I died. Tell me why you had to go, tell me that you didn’t know. Why did you go? Why did you go? You and I we could take the world together. You and I we could take the world alone. You and I we could take this word, forever and ever. You and I we could take the world alone.
