  • I don't need to feel like I can't do this all on my own
    Welcome to the guilty party

    This'll be the last time that you see us playing dead (yeah)
    We're all so malignant, bitter and twisted
    It's just another blame game while you cry for help (yeah)
    Good grief, let go

    Defeatist, you let your demons hold you
    Unforsaken, like getting blood from a stone
    You try to shake them, but they won't let you go
    And we don't have the time to stop and look at all we destroyed

    With an idle mind in a real life
    It's every man for himself if we're gonna survive
    And when the lights go out this time
    This time there's gonna be a riot (whoa-oh-oh)

    One nail, out's the other
    One nail, out's the other
    One nail, out's the other
    We shed our skin as we try to recover

    Your eyes shine the sun
    Your skin blows the wind
    Your eyes shine the sun
    And your skin blows the wind

    And your eyes
    I don't need to feel like I can't do this all on my own
    Your eyes
    I don't need to feel like I can't do this all on my own

    With an idle mind in a real life
    It's every man for himself if we're gonna survive
    And when the lights go out this time
    This time there's gonna be a riot (whoa-oh-oh)

    No heroin, no redeemer
    Life's anesthetic is
    Sleep

    Welcome to the guilty party
    Everything you've done
    Everything you've done, you've undone with this
    Shut up

    Your eyes shine the sun
    Your skin blows the wind
    Your eyes shine the sun
    And your skin blows the wind

    Your eyes
    I don't need to feel like I can't do this all on my own
    Your eyes
    I don't need to feel like I can't do this all on my own
    I don't need to feel like I can't do this all on my own Writer/s: Aaran Mackenzie, Adam Savage, Lawrence Taylor, Matthew Welsh, Sean Long
