[Intro: Jason Weiche]

Abandon the throne

Stars will explode

Why can’t I feel it underneath?

Your teeth in deep

They watch me bleed

The ground gives under me, give up

Don’t try, don’t try to save me; Run

It’s too late, it’s okay

These hands I’ll never love

[Verse: Jason Weiche, Carlo Marquez]

Keep your eyes peeled, he’s coming back

He wants your heart

He'll wrap his arms 'round your neck

And sink his teeth into your skin

He loves this chase

[Verse: Carlo Marquez, Jason Weiche]

If you stick by my side we'll be fine for a while

This wasn't planned, just omitted

To save our lives

Is this really it?

Death sends a kiss and takes the ones we love

You know I won't leave, its eyes follow me

This knife was made to cut

Keep stabbing and ripping, tearing at the throat

This is the last time, now look in my eyes

I’ll be watching for your ghost

[Verse: Jason Weiche, Carlo Marquez]

There’s nothing left but the weight

An open silent mouth

A memory aligns in time

My feet are frozen as we watch

Cold and alone

For a brief moment

To each and his own

I can't stand to see her

Sit in the throne

As he sinks his teeth into her skin

We have to try

[Verse: Carlo Marquez, Jason Weiche]

Tame the beast

Distract the beast

Tame the strife

Are we strong enough?

Find the peace, I see the light

I’m letting go of all I know

Do I believe?

Are we strong enough?

Hide her eyes, we need to leave now

Carry on, stay by my side

In the morning, we'll be fine

Get off your knees

Let's be strong enough

She was ours, but now she’s gone

Please, be strong enough

[Verse: Jason Weiche, Carlo Marquez]

Why?

This is the last time

The reach from above

Why even try?

I should have known

I would have held you close

Why?

Right around the bend a beast would take your life

Why do we try?

Whispered in your ear like a ghost

Words we never spoke


[Bridge: Jason Weiche]

Will you give life to me?

Will you leave what's left for me?

Are we chosen for the throne?

Chosen for the fire?

Will you leave what's left for me?

Will you give life to me?

Will you leave what's left for me?

Are we chosen for the throne?

Chosen for the fire?

Will you leave what's left for me?

Will you give life to me?

Will you leave what's left for me?

Are we chosen for the throne?

Chosen for the fire?

Will you leave what's left for me?


[Outro: Jason Weiche]

Abandon the throne

Stars will explode

Why can’t I feel it underneath?

Your teeth in deep, they watch me bleed

The ground gives under me, give up
