When the days are cold
And the cards all fold
And the saints we see
C'
When your dreams all fail
And the ones we hail
Are the worst of all
And the blood's run stale
I want to hide the truth
I want to shelter you
C'
There's nowhere we can hide
No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
C'
This is my kingdom come
When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
C'
It's where my demons hide
Don't get too close
It's dark inside
C'
When the curtain's call
Is the last of all
When the lights fade out
C'
So they dug your grave
And the masquerade
Will come calling out
At the mess you made
Don't want to let you down
But I am hell bound
C'
Don't want to hide the truth
No matter what we breed
We still are made of greed
C'
This is my kingdom come
When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
C'
It's where my demons hide
Don't get too close
It's dark inside
C'
It's where my demons hide
Bridge: (soft strumming)
They say it's what you make
I say it's up to fate
C'
I need to let you go
Your eyes, they shine so bright
I want to save their light
C' (strum once)
Unless you show me how
When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
C'
It's where my demons hide
Don't get too close
It's dark inside
C'
It's where my demons hide
3.ON TOP OF THE WORLD
If you love somebody
Better tell them while theyre here cause
They just may run away from you
Youll never know what went well
Now take it in but dont look down
Chorus
Cause Im on top of the world ay
Im on top of the world ay
Waiting on this for a while now
Paying my dues to the dirt
Ive been waiting to smile ay
Been holding it in for a while ay
Take it with me if I can
Been dreaming of this since a child
Im on top of the world.
verse 2 ( *same as V1)
Now take it in but dont look down
Chorus (same)
And I know its hard when youre falling down
And its a long way up when you hit the ground
Get up now, get up, get up now.
And I know its hard when youre falling down
Chorus

So this is what you meant when you said that you were spent?
And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit right to the top,
Don't hold back
Packing my bags and giving the academy a rain check
I don't ever want to let you down
I don't ever want to leave this town
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then,
I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am?
So this is where you fell, and I am left to sell
the path that heaven runs through miles of clouded hell,
right to the top
Don't look back
Turning to rags and give the commodities a rain check
I don't ever want to let you down
I don't ever want to leave this town
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then,
I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am? x2
This road never looked so lonely,
This house doesn't burn down slowly,
to ashes, to ashes
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then,
I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am?
It's time to begin, isn't it?
I get a little bit bigger, but then,
I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
That I'm never changing who I am?
