Lyrics[edit | edit source]

Candle burning at both ends
Count the cities on the edge and why
Don't we start over?
No one stands above us
No one hurls a crooked lie our way
The more they wrong the further we belong
Ten years we revolt
Sift through the alley uh oh
Unwilling uh uh oh
Underneath a neon halo
Unnerved, anger even our frustration
Get over it
Break for cover
We'll find the others
If not we'll settle there uh oh
Someday we will make great civilizations
It might not save us
But we know we can't stay here
Hope and fear and medicine
Paper trails of fallen sales
Set out for new dimensions
No one stands above us
No one hurls a crooked lie our way
The more they wrong
The further we belong
Ten years we revolt
Sift through the alley uh oh
Unwilling uh uh oh
Underneath a neon halo
Unnerved, anger even our frustration
Get over it
Break for cover
We'll find the others
If not we'll settle there uh oh
Someday we will make great civilizations
Break for cover
We'll find the others
If not we'll settle there uh oh
Someday we will make great civilizations
It might not save us
But we know we can't stay here
Ten years we revolt
Sift through the alley uh oh
We're only unwilling uh uh oh
Underneath a neon halo
Under the unnerved
Anger even our frustration
Until we're over it
Get over it
