Streetlight Manifesto Enormous ^{минус №2}

There might have been a better way (Might have been a better way, but now it's much too late!)
But it doesn't really matter 'cause the ending isn't better based on price you pay
Everyone will hesitate (Everyone will hold their words back in)
Babble on elucidate like anything is capable of stopping it

Everything is written, we're just reading the lines we're given, like we were actors
Hoping that we make it to the curtain call
We're fighting over bit parts, stepping on each others' toes
But the audience is eyein' the clock, 'cause they know how the story goes
And they're holding on to hope until it's gone

And everybody here will ignore us, 'til we grow enormous
We'll blot out the sun and the moon and the stars above
Then everyone will ask for forgiveness, they'll ask why we did this
But we won't know what to tell 'em, so we'll sing this song
While everybody stands in confusion, we'll find it amusin'
That they don't know why they're searching but they'll know they want more
When everybody's scars we've forgotten, the battles we fought them is
You'll make our rumors stand up while the others ignore

(Why don't you hold your head up high?)
(You got a lot on your plate, you got a lot on your mind!)
(Why don't you hold your head up high?)
(You got a lot on your plate, you got a lot on your mind!)

Oh every single word I said (Every single thing we've ever done will fade away)
Every single thought I ever thought already thought about by someone else
Braggin' 'bout our innocence (Braggin' 'bout the things we know away)
Starin' like an idiot and hopin' other idiots will make some sense

Every now and then I hear somebody say they never meant for this to happen
But do, pray tell, what the hell did you think would come?
The psychopomp grows impatient, the horsemen are tapping their toes
But me and my cast we'll be watching from the deck, 'cause we know how the story goes
Yeah we've given up on hope because it's gone

(Why don't you hold your head up high?)
(You got a lot on your plate, you got a lot on your mind!)
(Why don't you hold your head up high?)
(You got a lot on your plate, you got a lot on your mind)

The liars and the bastards tried to shape us, the decent and the modest took the reins
But I got everything I need, almost everything I want
And the few things that I'm still missing I see on the horizon
And it makes no difference who you are or who you know
'Cause you'll need to leave all the pleasantries when it's finally time to go

What you know will turn to knew, what you have will turn to had
What you are will turn to was, and the wood will turn to ash
But I feel everyone I've lost, and I see everyone I love
Every time I stop and slow my breath and stand for long enough

And it makes no difference who you are or who you know
'Cause you need to leave all the pleasantries when it's finally time to go
And we take the stock of the things we've got 'cause we're always running low
And then they're gone

And everybody here will ignore us, 'til we grow enormous
We'll blot out the sun and the moon and the stars above
Then everyone will ask for forgiveness
They'll ask why we did this
But we won't know what to tell 'em, so we'll sing this song

(Why don't you hold your head up high?)
(You got a lot on your plate, you got a lot on your mind)
(Why don't you hold your head up high?)
(You got a lot on your plate, you got a lot on your mind)
