The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus Album

I see the sweat is dripping
That's because you know just what I'm thinking
Don't look back it's me who follows
And there ain't nothing from me you can borrow

You like to hide behind lies
But we see through your disguise
It's not a threat or a curse
Just a proper verse

I'm gonna make you let go
Of what you tried to withhold
And I can promise it won't be long
Yes I can promise

Boy, you better pray
We don't seek you out, no
You better pray

You think the war is over
I've only shown you the tip of the iceberg
And you rely upon your lawyers
But at night when you sleep does it bother you?

You like to hide behind lies
But we see through your disguise
It's not a threat or a curse
Just a proper verse

I'm gonna make you let go
Of what you tried to withhold
And I can promise it won't be long
Yes I can promise

Boy, you better pray
We don't seek you out, no
You better hope
We might lose control, no

Is this good enough for you man?

Boy, you better pray
We don't seek you out, no
You better hope
We might lose control, no

Seem to found a familiar face
In a place where they're no name
And we learn to appreciate
All the things we take in vain

Hold on tight and enjoy the ride girl
This is all that we get (That you get girl)
It feels right and I know you can tell
I'm not going to lie (This is no spell)

I'm not worried and I'm not afraid
What we have should be displayed
No matter what the others may say
We will always stay this way

Hold on tight and enjoy the ride girl
This is all that we get (That you get girl)
It feels right and I know you can tell
I'm not going to lie (This is no spell)
This is no spell
This is no spell

When all the world is gone and dead
I'll still be the one to hold your hand
When all the world is gone and dead

Hold on tight and enjoy the ride girl
This is all that we get (That you get girl)
It feels right and I know you can tell
I'm not going to lie (This is no spell)

Hold on tight and enjoy the ride girl
This is all that we get (That you get girl)
It feels right and I know you can tell
I'm not going to lie
This is no spell

When all the world is gone and dead
I'll still be the one to hold your hand
When all the word is gone and dead

This whole routine is getting old
So am I, and so are you
My reputation lets me know
I can do whatever I want to
Though it seems that you believe
You can do whatever it is you please
Know before, know before you wind up on your knees
Don't cry to me no more

You like the way that people stare at you
Now you look so fake,
just thought that you should know
And you're all the same,
and when the curtain drops down
You'll be replaced by something typical

You set yourself up to the sold
and that's ok cause that's your role
Manipulation takes its toll
What will you do when nobody wants you
Though it seems that you believe
You can do whatever it is you please
Know before, know before you wind up on your knees
Don't cry to me no more

You like the way that people stare at you
Now you look so fake,
just thought that you should know
And you're all the same,
and when the curtain drops down
You'll be replaced by something typical

I know, I've stood so long beside you
And I know, I should've left you right where I had found you
I know, I've stood so long beside you
And I know, I should've left you right where I had found you

You like the way that people stare at you
Now you look so fake,
just thought that you should know
And you're all the same,
and when the curtain drops down
You'll be replaced by something typical

You like the way that people stare at you
Now you look so fake,
just thought that you should know
And you're all the same,
and when the curtain drops down
You'll be replaced by something typical

A kid came up to me now just the other day
And asked me if I thought about what I would say
If everything came crashing down on top of me
How would I stay torn?

Will you represent?
Will you stand close?
Will they shame you?
Will they blame you?

It's funny how the words of a child can be
Simple, but the thought there is so meaningful
Makes me wonder what I would say to me
In the eyes of another

Will you represent?
Will you stand close?
Will they shame you?
Will they blame you?

There's a consequence
For the path you chose
Will they change you?

Will they make you who you are? [x3]

Let the free world ride your way
In these times of darkened days
Let the free world ride your way (let the free world ride your way)

You will represent
You'll stand close
They won't shame you
They won't change you

There's a consequence
For the path you chose
They can't change you
They can't make you who you are not.

1,2 Let’s go!

There’s lots of crazy crazy things this world, will offer you
And there’s no way to fake what you’ve been through
So just hold on to what you know is true!

Pull me back again
I need you to pull me from myself
(Pull me from myself)
Pull me back again
I need you to pull me from myself
(Before I get out!)

It seems that there’s nowhere left to turn
It’s true
I’d like to think that we could help each other
As a pack of thing we’re going through!

Pull me back again
I need you to pull me from myself
(Pull me from myself)
Pull me back again
I need you to pull me from myself
(Before I get out!)

Pull me back again
I need you to pull me from myself
(Pull me from myself)
Pull me back again
I need you to pull me from myself
(Before I get out!)

Pull me back again!
(Before I get out)
Pull me back again!
(Before I get out)

Please aim slow
I know it's not like you
To take the fall
For anyone but yourself
Let me show you a world
That you've never seen
Let me help you around
What you meant to say
There is no time to waste
Well if I love you can't hesitate

Step right up
Shoot an arrow at the target
My heart is an easy thing for you to hit
Don't worry
If you miss I'll let you shoot again
My heart is an easy thing for you to win

Whoa you know you did it again
And everytime I hear your voice
Well you know i had no choice but to let you in
Life's short
Don't pretend

Let me show you a world
That you've never seen
Let me help you around
What you meant to say
There is no time to waste
Well if I love you can't hesitate

Step right up
Shoot an arrow at the target
My heart is an easy thing for you to hit
Don't worry
If you miss I'll let you shoot again
My heart is an easy thing for you to win
Step right up
Shoot an arrow at the target
My heart is an easy thing for you to hit
Don't worry
If you miss I'll let you shoot again
My heart is an easy thing for you to win

Oo where could I see you
To let you know every day
I am grateful
I wish I could turn back time
Or maybe rewind
I would find you when we were younger
So we could spend all the time on earth together longer

Step right up
Shoot an arrow at the target
My heart is an easy thing for you to hit
Don't worry
If you miss I'll let you shoot again
My heart is an easy thing for you to win

Step right up again
And if I love you can't hesitate
Step right up again
My heart is aching I can barely wait
Step right up again
When if I love you can't hesitate
Step right up again
My heart is aching I can barely wait

Aren't these some times?
It's gotten bad, and it's been
Pressin’ on my mind
Got me feelin’ sad

But I know you know
That we could do more
But we just don't

Don't worry world
I feel your pain, and it’s a shame
My shoulders are hurt
And stressed from the pain

And I know you know
That you could do more
But you

And I still believe
That there is more love than hate
There's more heart than ache
And we are stuck in this great big world together

With a little bit of help from up above
And a sprinkling of love
We can break these chains
We will end these days

And I know you know
That you could do more
But you

And I still believe
That there is more love than hate
There's more heart than ache
And we are stuck in this great big world together

And I still believe
That there is a lot at stake, there's no time to wait
We can change the world if we try
We're gonna change it forever

You should join us
You, let it be you

Who will join us?
You, let it be you

And I still believe
That there is more love than hate
There's more heart than ache
And we are stuck in this great big world together

And I still believe
That there is a lot at stake
And there's no time to wait
We can change the world if we try
We're gonna change it forever

And I still believe
That there is more love than hate
There's more heart than ache
And we are stuck in this great big world together

And I still believe

I need this
Is it a good time for you
And if it’s not just know
I may not be here when you need me

Sometimes I feel like I would die without you
And if it’s too early don’t worry when I say I’m sorry now
Hang on to this moment
It will be all over soon

‘Cause I know you’ll wait for me
You’ll wait for me ‘til I get home
Yes, I know you’ll wait for me
You’ll wait for me ‘til I get home

Is this what life is supposed to be about?
Sometimes it’s hard, but I will help you understand it somehow
The only thing that I want from you is trust
Together we will make it through this world
We must

Hang on to this moment
It will be all over soon

‘Cause I know you’ll wait for me
You’ll wait for me ‘til I get home
Yes, I know you’ll wait for me
You’ll wait for me ‘til I get home

But if I should fall
Then you should move on
All eyes watch out for you from up above
Now don’t take this wrong
But you should move on
All eyes watch over you from up above

This could be the last time that I speak with you
Just in case let’s make the best of what we have until it’s through

‘Cause I know you’ll wait for me
You’ll wait for me ‘til I get home
Yes, I know you’ll wait for me
You’ll wait for me ‘til I get home
I get home

My Grandpa said to me, "grandson sit down we need to talk
In life, there may be times when it gets hard to walk the walk.
It's easier to take the path that most have traveled on.
But then again sometimes to do what's right you must walk alone."

And that is a lonely road
Ohh
When this world burns down
Deep in your soul
Ohh
You will find there's a piece left behind
You will find there's a piece to find
(Piece to find)

Some people are unkind to those who see things different, oh
We've all felt pain in ways it hurts to even bring it up
But that don't mean that patience
Take this motion lying down
I'll stand and fight until the day they put me in the ground

And that is a lonely road
Ohh
When this world burns down
Deep in your soul
Ohh
You will find there's a piece behind
You will find there's a piece to find
(Piece to find)

And now I've taught you all I know
So take this seed and let it grow
Though I'm here now, I'll soon be gone
I did what I can to try it make it strong
(I did what I can to try it make it strong)
(I can see that you're strong)

And that is a lonely road
Ohh
When this world burns down
Deep in your soul
Ohh
You will find there's a piece behind
You will find there's a piece to find
(Piece to find)

(Such a lonely road)
And that is a lonely road
Ohh
When this world burns down
Deep in your soul
(Deep in your soul)
Ohh
You will find there's a piece behind
You will find there's a piece to find
(Piece to find)

Gather round now everyone
Put your glass in the air
Sing along now everyone
We've got a reason to cheer
Take it in, breathe it in
We are about to begin

Make the choice to use your voice
But don't get lost in the noise
Skip classes, take chances, have fun
Cause when it's over, it is done
Skip classes, take chances, have fun

How did this come to an end
We shouldn't have to pretend
Everything we know could change
Will you remember my name
I hope you do honestly
I'll keep you in my memory

Make the choice to use your voice
But don't get lost in the noise

Skip classes, take chances, have fun
Cause when it's over, it is done
Skip classes, take chances, have fun

I have waited so long
To write this song for you
I hope you like it
I have waited so long
To write this song for you
I hope you like it
I have waited so long
To sing this song with you
I know that you'll like it

Skip classes, take chances, have fun
Cause when it's over, it is done
Skip classes, take chances, have fun

Its January 1970, do you remember me
You put me on a boat across the sea, in the name of victory
But much to my surprised when I arrived, there was no welcoming committee
Instead there was a man for me to kill, and now I see all this too real

Then I saw him standing with a bayonet
and as I ran towards him he hardly broke a sweat
When I took his life he fell to his knees
And as his eyes began to fade he whispered softly

Godspeed this letter, away from here
I've sealed it with my tears, and stomped it with my fists
And godspeed this letter, away from you
My work down here is through
I'm on my way to better days and so are you

I'm in his pocket that I saw the picture of his children and his family
And I began to realize this person I despised, in actuality
Was not much different from myself
we probably could have taught each other many things
And now I know its much too late although I couldn't hesitate
I checked his gun, and his chamber was empty

Then I saw him standing with a bayonet
and as I ran towards him he hardly broke a sweat
When I took his life he fell to his knees
And as his eyes began to fade he whispered softly

Godspeed this letter, away from here
I've sealed it with my tears, and stomped it with my fists
And godspeed this letter, away from you
My work down here is through
I'm on my way to better days and so are you

o-ho
We know not what we've done
And o-ho
We know not what we've done

Godspeed this letter, away from here
I've sealed it with my tears, and stomped it with my fists
And godspeed this letter, away from you
My work down here is through
I'm on my way to better days
And so are you
