The chips are down   And we are drowning in the flood   It's such a cruel mistress   A bitter taste tonight   Amidst the rising tide of good tries   The goodbyes make the ride home   On the wrong road   Seem Oh! So trite      The seatbelt is keeping me trapped   The art form of not holding back   The seatbelt is keeping me trapped   The art form of not holding back      It's arduous this glamorous life   It's arduous don't stop now      This is not a cautionary tale   [The fuse is lit so run for help]   Thirty minutes will burn faster than incinderary bomb's    Whoa oh! oh!   Whoa oh! oh!   Whoa oh! oh!   Whoa oh! oh!      In standing here we learn to fall   In holding tight we lost it all   In thirty minutes we believe   We're gonna chase this falling star   Whoa oh! oh!   Whoa oh! oh!   Whoa oh! oh!   Whoa oh! oh!      Thank you for coming here tonight   I see the wonder in your eyes   Don't let me steer you wrong   Don't let me steer you wrong      Thank you for coming here tonight   I see the wonder in your eyes   Don't let me steer you wrong   Don't let me steer you wrong   I wrote this down to tear you up   I wrote this down to tear you up   I wrote this down to tear you up   I wrote this down to tear you up   I wrote this down to tear you up   I wrote this down to tear you up   I wrote this down to tear you up      This is our labor, this is our labor of love for you, love for you   This is our labor, this is our labor of love for you, love for you   This is our labor, this is our labor of love for you, love for you   This is our labor, this is our labor of love for you, love for you      I'd rather bleed than live to see the day the song died out   I'd rather bleed than live to see the day the song died out   I'd rather bleed than live to see the day the song died out   I'd rather bleed than live to see the day the song died out
