Verse

One is for envy and one just for spite

 The cuts in my heart, they show in your eyes

Don't make it better

 The twisting knife turns all by itself, on to someone else

Your self-liberation will leave this behind

 Beyond slings and arrows, bearing on our mind

 Don't make it better

 Shake it off, it never mattered, anyway

If we don't make it alive

 It's a hell of a good day to die.

 All our light that shines strong

 Only lasts for so long.

And it's ashes to ashes again

 Should we even try to pretend?

 All our light that shines strong

 Only lasts for so long.

 The banner you're waving is burning in red

 It's blocking the sunlight, that shines overhead

You against the world

 Diamonds and pearls, voices inside you churn, watch the city burn

 Your own liberation will leave them behind

All the slings and arrows, bearing on your mind

Don't make it better

 Break it 'cause it never mattered anyway

If we don't make it alive

 It's a hell of a good day to die.

 All our light that shines strong

 Only lasts for so long.

And it's ashes to ashes again

 Should we even try to pretend?

 All our light that shines strong

 Only lasts for so long.

I won't come down

 The banner you're waving

Is burning in red

You against the world, diamonds and pearls

 It never mattered, mattered, mattered anyway

If we don't make it alive

 It's a hell of a good day to die.

 All our light that shines strong

 Only lasts for so long.

And it's ashes to ashes again

 Should we even try to pretend?

 All our light that shines strong

 Only lasts for so long.

 All our light that shines strong

 Only lasts for so long.
