welcome the day

i'm too weak to give up
and too stubborn to give in
i'm gonna keep beating my head into the wall
and as the blood pours down my face
i will realize who i am
i'll be looking down on you from where i stand

with the night on fire again
i can show you how to burn
and as my cinders grace the heavens
your bodies lie in hell
always looking for an exit
your skin is stretched too thin
til i can see through you

these are the days i've lived for
these are the nights i've dreamt of
this is the one chance that i've got
the timing could not be better
i've passed all my chances to give up
so whether you're coming with me or not
this train leaves tonight

you can tell me i'm a fool
i don't care what you think
and that's the first true thing that i've said all night
you've given up on me
but i can't give up on myself
already done that one too many times

with my nose to the grind
i know i'll find success
living out the dream i've left
know that i'll find happiness
ink seeps through these pages
and word turns into song
this music saved my life

these are the days i've lived for
these are the nights i've dreamt of
this is the one chance that i've got
the timing could not be better
i've passed all my chances to give up
so whether you're coming with me or not
this train leaves tonight

and it's not that i don't care
but i can't just give up hope
i still believe in me
like i still believe in you
cause the stars aren't that far away
and the night is here to welcome the day

these are the days i've lived for
these are the nights i've dreamt of
this is the one chance that i've got
the timing could not be better
i've passed all my chances to give up
so whether you're coming with me or not
this train leaves tonight

these are the days i've lived for
these are the nights i've dreamt of
this is the one chance that i've got
the timing could not be better
i've passed all my chances to give up
so whether you're coming with me or not
this train leaves tonight
this train leaves tonight
this train leaves tonight
