Hold on till the moment is just right,
wait for the right time.
dont't go jump the gun.
when we get all the answers
there's no telling what we'll find.
but please don't take your time.

the city on the rise will swallow us alive.
eat at our insides, and haunt us until the day we die.

i'm a theif, i'm a cheat, im a habitual liar.
and i want to get better, i just know that i'll get better
if i try to understand all the morals that i hold in my head
before it consumes me, and i lie in my defeat.
we're all on our way home.
we're all on our way...

the city on the rise will swallow us alive.
eat at our insides, and haunt us until the day we die.
i'm just the son of a habitual liar
with plans of only getting higher.
something tells me that it won't be as easy as i had hoped.
so lets just hope that this comes sweetly.
i just hope that this comes quickly.

i say ha, i say ha, i say halleluja.
do ya feel the way that i do

with this disease that eats me alive?

you've got your eyes on the money,
and there aint nothing funny about
fooling around with innocence.

i'm a theif, i'm a cheat, im a habitual liar.
