Time makes tyrants of us all
I hear the siren call
Desperate and restless souls
All the riot vans make the whole town glow
We dance through ash on shattered bones

All my friends are dead
Dead awake
Pretty as the drugs we take
In these parts there’s a beck and call
Of a beating heart it’s a wrecking ball
It will fight tooth and nail

Burn the faceless stars
Let ‘em free fall
Self-mеdicated and high on hope
Starved mouths tradе pennies for a pack of smokes
Track marks piercing broken homes

All my friends are dead
Dead awake
Pretty as the drugs we take
In these parts there’s a beck and call
Of a beating heart it’s a wrecking ball
It will fight tooth and nail

Feels like we never fail to fail
I found truth in the silence
It’s the only thing that can’t lie
But I can’t stay quiet

Hospital bed so I
Won’t sugar coat the shit I’ve heard
Or the absurd amount of things I’ve seen
If that’s what I say then that’s what I mean
Won’t sugar coat or polish turds
With the absurd amount of things I’ve seen so
If that’s what I said then that’s what I mean
Time will make tyrants of us all
I hear the siren call

We lie dead awake
Pretty as the drugs we take
Never fail to fail
But we will fight tooth and nail
Feels like we never fail to fail
But we beat our chest like a war drum
