Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

You called it no man's land

With machine guns blasting to hell

 I let my guard down and carried my heart so far away

 And in a letter sent, that I don't want to be here any more than them

 I'm sipping on coffee gone stale again

 Is this how it tastes to mix drinks with sour grapes?

 So kiss me before it's over, if only for a minute

 So kiss me before it's over, if only for a minute

 We can argue who was first to bleed

 Or let your walls do the talking

Interlude

(We're falling faster now)

But in the middle of the night

I lay there frozen in a memory

Of us down by the river

With your hands clenched into mine

 Well I still remember

All the promises you swore

That we'd never outlive

Please tell me you remember, forever friends

 So kiss me before it's over, if only for a minute

 So kiss me before it's over, if only for a minute

 We can argue who was first to bleed

 Or let your walls do the talking

Interlude

 'Cause in the red light I'm singing all alone

 I watched my favorite dream fall from grace to stone

 Hiding in the basement, we kept our voices low

 You gave me that old troubled look that said, "I don't know"

Hold onto twilight, the sun brings empire

We are the last fight, we are the fire

And just like your mother said

(Hold onto twilight, the sun brings empire)

You're too pretty and young for this

You'll make it better on the outside

(We are the last fight, we are the fire)

Just keep your head and keep your fire.
