[Verse 1]
I considered all the chances that were mine
I believed they'd find solutions just in time
I believed they held more answers than i'd heard
The angels sing a different song
[Refrain]
Strangers all around us
"Trust in me," they'd say
"We have got the answers
To save the world today"
[Verse 2]
I considered all the things they said
Paper plans drawn out, but never read
To save us from our darkest fears
We close our eyes and trust that time will find a way
[Refrain]
How we trusted in you
No one knows for sure
Still it's all but over
Sailing on a ship of fools
[Chorus]
Crash and burn to live again (Crash and burn)
Up from the ashes, I rise
What was clear, the tragedy
Took all my chances away
Crash and burn to live again (Crash and burn)
Up from the ashes, I rise
Only to find it's a lie
[Verse 3]
Listening to the radio, it seemed to me
Prophets selling fast cars and a dream
Send your money to us right away
There's a seat reserved for you
[Refrain]
At the holy altar
You can live for free
In the name of his name
For eternity
[Chorus]
Crash and burn to live again (Crash and burn)
Up from the ashes, I rise
What was clear, the tragedy
Took all my chances away
Crash and burn to live again (Crash and burn)
Up from the ashes, I rise
Only to find it's a lie
[Post-Chorus]
Crash and burn
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Too many words have been spoken
So many people divine
Too many questions rise from my heart
Answers I may never find before I
[Chorus]
Crash and burn to live again (Crash and burn)
Up from the ashes, I rise
What was clear, the tragedy
Took all my chances away
Crash and burn to live again (Crash and burn)
Up from the ashes, I rise
Only to find it's a lie
[Post-Chorus]
Crash and burn
