We Stand Up

I’ve watched the sun go dancing fall
And watched the night reign
Please note that casual observers are always
The first to go, so this is for me and the boys
We’ll always play our part, to kick and scream
To be the ones you hate to love
I can never turn my back because this is all I know
You know all that is the truth, we are all we have
In a world that corrupts the strongest soul
You know all that is the truth
If you blink don’t do it twice, I’ve still got something to say here
I will bear my heart to expose my soul
If honesty has a price, then I won’t fucking pay, dear
We will take our dreams straight to the grave
Choke on this and on my words
And on us, and on my honesty
It’s of no consequence, because I’ve seen the opulence
The beauty I’ve held in my eyes
If only for seconds
Words will never take away
What we have built together
With our hands, with our hearts, with our minds
If you blink don’t do it twice, I’ve still got something to say here
I will bear my heart to expose my soul
If honesty has a price, then I won’t fucking pay, dear
We will take our dreams straight to the grave
If this is just in our heads then
We’ll keep on living the perfect lie
One day at a time god bless our
Cheating hearts and damn your lies
If this is just in our heads then
We’ll keep on living the perfect lie
One day at a time god bless us
If you blink don’t do it twice, I’ve still got something to say here
I will bear my heart to expose my soul
If honesty has a price, then I won’t fucking pay, dear
We will take our dreams straight to the grave
