Lyrics

Come on! Watch those idiosyncrasies Watch all the idiots fall on me Running out of ways to get outta the way Take another shot just to stay the same But I need some balance, back it off Fill your lungs 'til it makes you cough Tell me everything's gonna be alright 'Cause I don't think I'll make it through tonight The only way is all the way! The only way is all the way! The only way (the only way) is all the way! (Is all the way!) The only way (the only way) is all the way! Oh my God! It's judgment day, and I'm not prepared Everybody out there's running scared So take a little bit off the top I don't care, just make it stop I won't give another soul to you (I will never) I won't give another life to you No, you have to stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Do one thing and say something cryptic But the styles always clash One thing I know for sure The hypothetical won't work anymore One wrong move and they will pound My nails are tight inside my wrists This sacrament is sacrilege and sentimental Deity experimental, faith is accidental I won't give another soul to you (I will never) I won't give another life to you (I will never) I won't give another thought to you (I will never) I won't give any more of my hope to you
