Composed by:BASS, ERIC/SMITH, BRENT/MYERS, MICHAEL ZACHARY
I am the shadow and the smoke in your eyes
I am the ghost that hides in the night
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
Wait wait a minute take a step back
You gotta think twice before you react
So stay stay a little while
'Cause a promise not kept is the road to exile
Hey what's the circumstance
You'll never be great without taking a chance so
Wait you waited too long
Had your hands in your pocket
When you shoulda been gone
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
One push is all you'll need
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
A fist first philosophy
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
We watch with wounded eyes
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
So I hope you recognize
I'm on the front line
Don't worry I'll be fine
The story is just beginning
I say goodbye to my weakness
So long to the regret
And now I see the world through diamond eyes
D**n d**n it all down
Took one to the chest without even a sound
So what what are you worth
The things you love or the people you hurt
Hey it's like deja vu
A suicidal maniac with nothing to lose
So wait it's the exception to the rule
Everyone of us is expendable
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
One push is all you'll need
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
A fist first philosophy
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
We watch with wounded eyes
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
So I hope you recognize
I'm on the front line
Don't worry I'll be fine
The story is just beginning
I say goodbye to my weakness
So long to the regret
And now I know that I'm alive
I'm on the front line
Don't worry I'll be fine
The story is just beginning
I say goodbye to my weakness
So long to the regret
And now I see the world through diamond eyes
Every night of my life
I watch angels fall from the sky
Every time that the sun still sets
I pray they don't take mine
I'm on the front line
Don't worry I'll be fine
The story is just beginning
I say goodbye to my weakness
So long to regret
I'm on the front line
Don't worry I'll be fine
The story is just beginning
I say goodbye to my weakness
So long to the regret
And now I know that I'm alive
I'm on the front line
Don't worry I'll be fine
The story is just beginning
I say goodbye to my weakness
So long to the regret
And now I see the world through diamond eyes
I'm on the front line
Don't worry I'll be fine
The story is just beginning
I say goodbye to my weakness
So long to the regret
And now I see the world through diamond eyes
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
Boom-lay boom-lay boom
