(Verse 1)

The storm's here, it's ringin' in my ear

One more shot and I won't be here

Another hurdle on the race and man I fear

I fall one more time you won't be near

All this thinkin' got me feelin' weak

Every single day has gotten me bleak

And sometimes I wanna cry for help

But the Lord's not comin' I'm on the door to hell

I'm stuck, I'm almost out of time

Man I wish my days weren't this sublime

I know we've all got a mountain to climb

But this damn road is far off the line

The lightning, the thunder, keeps ringing

I'm afraid of the storm God is bringing

Because I'm not gettin' his mercy

Please Lord I don't want you to hurt me

(Hook)

Set the bells on fire

Wait for what we desire

Look deep into the fire

Watch us grow our empire

Wait 'til the end

They ask us what we do

We march until we win

All that's left is me and you

(Verse 2)

I've tried to escape the burden

Tried to escape the torment

Tried to escape my worth and

Tried to escape what's broken

I don't know why I tried

Wasted so many hours of my life

Go through the wrong door and pay the price

And they say stars are made overnight

No wonder I'm destined for failure

Started off lyin' through my teeth

Tried out a persona that wasn't tailored

Lyin' bout everything tongue and cheek

Lied about everything

Scared to have an opinion

Didn't want people to disagree

Whether that means believing in fiction

(Hook)

Set the bells on fire

Wait for what we desire

Look deep into the fire

Watch us grow our empire

Wait 'til the end

They ask us what we do

We march until we win

All that's left is me and you

(Verse 3)

Nobody wants to be honest

It's all about bait

Mappin' out your actions so you get a good reaction

Instead of takin' some troubles off their plate

Now I'm not tellin' you to burden yourself

Just lessen the load on others

It's better if you go and help

Instead of being selfish

Everywhere there's selfish assholes

Nowhere are there not

So how the fuck can we help the world

When they just let it rot?

I'm not the best person I know

But at least I know when to not go

When someone clearly needs help

'Cause I know how they've felt

(Hook)

Set the bells on fire

Wait for what we desire

Look deep into the fire

Watch us grow our empire

Wait 'til the end

They ask us what we do

We march until we win

All that's left is me and you

(Outro)

Wait 'til the end

They ask us what we do

We march until we win

All that's left is me and you
