Lyrics:

Robert's got a quick hand.
He'll look around the room,
he wont tell you his plan.
He's got a rolled cigarette
hanging out his mouth.
He's a cowboy kid.

Yeah! He found a six-shooter gun
in his dad's closet, with the box of fun things.
I don't even know what,
but he's coming for you. Yeah, He's coming for you!

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,
You better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,
You better run, better run, faster than my bullet.

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,
You better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,
You better run, better run, faster than my bullet.

Daddy works a long day.
He be coming home late, and he's coming home late.
And he's bringing me a surprise.
'cause dinner's in the kitchen and it's packed in ice

I've waited for a long time.
Yeah the sleight of my hand is now a quick-pull trigger.
I reason with my cigarette,
Then say, "Your hair's on fire, you must have lost your wits, yeah?"

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,
You better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,

You better run, better run, faster than my bullet.

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,
You better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,
You better run, better run, faster than my bullet.

(Run, Run, Run, Run. Run, Run.
R-Run, Run, Run.
R-Run.
R-Run, Run, Run.
R-Run.
Run, Run.
Run, Run.
Run, Run, Run.)

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,
You better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,
You better run, better run, faster than my bullet.

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,
You better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,
You better run, better run, faster than my bullet.

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,
You better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,
You better run, better run, faster than my bullet.

All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,
You better run, better run, outrun my gun.
All the other kids with the pumped up kicks,
You better run, better run, faster than my bullet.

Sail!

This is how I show my love
I made it in my mind because
I blame it on my A.D.D. baby

This is how an angel dies
I blame it on my own supply
Blame it on my A.D.D. baby

Sail!
Sail!
Sail!
Sail!
Sail!

Maybe I should cry for help
Maybe I should kill myself
Blame it on my A.D.D. baby

Maybe I'm a different breed
Maybe I'm not listening
So blame it on my A.D.D. baby

Sail!
Sail!
Sail!
Sail!
Sail!

Lalalalalala oh!

Lalalalalala oh!

Sail!
Sail!
Sail!
Sail!
Sail!

Sail with me into the dark
Sail!
Sail with me into the dark

Lyrics:

Live and die before I get it done,
Will you decide.
I'll take my words and turn them into sounds,
It will survive.
Because a long time ago,
I knew not to deprive.

It's safe out there and now you're everywhere,
Just like the sky.
And you are love,
You are the love supreme,
You are the rye.
And when you hear this,
You know it's your jam,
It's your goodbye.

[Chorus:]
Like I said you know I'm almost dead,
You know I'm almost gone.
And when the drummer drums,
He's gonna play my song,
To carry me along.
Like I said you know I'm almost dead,
You know I'm almost gone.
And when the boatman comes to ferry me away,
To where we all belong.

We all crossed
When we were feeling lost,
It's just the time.
Kateri cried,
The day her lover died,
She recognized.
Because ya gave her,
A life of real love,
It's no surprise.

The night's are long,
But the years are short,
When you're alive.
Way back when,
Will never be again,
It was a time.
It's gonna catch you,
So glad I met you,
To walk a line.

[Chorus:]
Like I said you know I'm almost dead,
You know I'm almost gone.
And when the drummer drums,
He's gonna play my song,
To carry me along.
Like I said you know I'm almost dead,
You know I'm almost gone.
And when the boatman comes to ferry me away,
To where we all belong.

Come get me
Hey!

Hey!

Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!

[Chorus:]
Like I said you know I'm almost dead,
You know I'm almost gone.
And when the drummer drums,
He's gonna play my song,
To carry me along.
Like I said you know I'm almost dead,
You know I'm almost gone.
And when the boatman comes to ferry me away,
To where we all belong.

Then we live,
So every time you die,
He's in the revert sky.
Lay me down,
So when it's time to leave,
Another sun will rise.

I said yeah!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
I said yeah!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

[Chorus:]
Like I said you know I'm almost dead,
You know I'm almost gone.
(I said yeah!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!)
And when the drummer drums,
He's gonna play my song,
To carry me along.
(I said yeah!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!)
Like I said you know I'm almost dead,
You know I'm almost gone.
(I said yeah!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!)
And when the boatman comes to ferry me away,
To where we all belong.
(I said yeah!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!)

Like I said you know I'm almost dead,
You know I'm almost gone.
Like I said you know I'm almost dead,
You know I'm almost gone.
Like I said you know I'm almost dead,
You know I'm almost gone.

This indecision has has got me cringing well
I can't resist the smell of your seduction

Unwrap the package with a much persuasion
Did I let you know?
Would you like to go

This I know we not alone! (Take me home, take me home)

When we invision, lack of division and
The planet does another revolution
The day I blew on ya you said I grew on ya
Turns out that we are all the one solution
GO!

I like the sound of your articulations
Want to arouse her and maybe espouse her well
She showed me love with out the stipulations

I wanna lean on you, get jan and dean on ya
It's time to sway a little mass perception
I like your cheeky well, so mose and peaky and
I think the world could use a clear connection

Did I let you know?
Would you like to go?
Did I let you know?
Would you like to go?
Did I let you know?
Would you like to go?

Lyrics:

Sometimes life it takes you by the hand.
It pulls you down before you know it
It’s gone and you’re dead again.
I’ve been in places and I won’t pretend
That I'd make it out just to fall on my head

Wake up strange and take the walk downstairs
Hit the pawn up on the corner and pay for my rent
You know that I could not believe my own truth
Just show them what I choose, got nothing to lose

Yeah yeah and it’s Ok.
I tie my hands up to a chair so I don’t fall that way.
Yeah yeah and I’m alright.
I took a sip of something poisoned but I’ll hold on tight.

You know those days when you want to just choose
To not get out of bed, you're lost in your head again.
You play the game but you kind of cut
’Cause you’re coming down hard and your joints are all stuck.
I tried to say that’s not the only way
I never knew if I could face myself to change.
You were pacing I was insecure.
Slip and fall, I'm dodging calls, hug the prison I've been living in.

Yeah yeah and it’s Ok.
I tie my hands up to a chair so I don’t fall that way.
Yeah yeah and I’m alright.
I took a sip of something poisoned but I’ll hold on tight.

Yeah yeah and it’s Ok.
I tie my hands up to a chair so I don’t fall that way.
Yeah yeah and I’m alright.
I took a sip of something poisoned,
Took a sip of something poisoned, poisoned.

Yeah yeah and it’s Ok.
I tie my hands up to a chair so I don’t fall that way.
Yeah yeah and I’m alright.
I took a sip of something poisoned but I’ll hold on tight.

Yeah yeah and it’s Ok.
I tie my hands up to a chair so I don’t fall that way.
Yeah yeah and I’m alright.
I took a sip of something poisoned but I’ll hold on tight.

Lyrics:

With our eyes wide open we
With our eyes wide open we

So this is the end of the story
Everything we had, everything we did
Is buried in dust
And this dust is all that's left of us
And only a few ever worried

While the signs were clear
They had no idea
You just get used to living in fear
Or give up
When you can't even picture your future

We walk the plank with our eyes wide open

We walk the plank with our eyes wide open we
(Walk the plank with our eyes wide open we)
Yeah we walk the plank with our eyes wide open we
(Walk the plank with our eyes wide open we)

Some people offered up answers
We made out like we heard
They were only words
They didn't add up
To a change in the way we were living
And the saddest thing
Is all of it could have been avoided

But it was like to stop consuming is to stop being human
And why would I make a change if you won't?
We're all in the same boat
Staying afloat for the moment

We walk the plank with our eyes wide open we
(Walk the plank with our eyes wide open we)
And we walk the plank with our eyes wide open we
(Walk the plank with our eyes wide open we)

We walk the plank with our eyes wide open we
(Walk the plank with our eyes wide open we)
We walk the plank with our eyes wide open we

With our eyes wide open we
We walk the plank, we walk the plank
With our eyes wide open we
We walk the plank, we walk the plank
We walk the plank
With our eyes wide open we
We walk the plank, we walk the plank
With our eyes wide open we

So that is the end of the story
