[edit]- This one last bullet you mention
is my one last shot at redemption
because I know to live you must give your life away.

but if I don't break your heart
things will just get worse.
- Let It All Out

coming up over the Pacific and

but I will shy away from the specifics.

to get cut enough to wake me up,
'cause I know that I don't wanna die
sitting around watch my life.

and the other half just doesn't care.

Turn a cold shoulder to these even colder skies.

for the green grass waitin' on the other side.

Cause we make a good team,
But yours would look better than mine
Cause you're out of my league
