Four whole years is a long way down
Can we sleep this off in the lost and found?
I guess we had no idea there would be no sound
When the guns went off and we hit the ground
Singing out oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
They were long days they were long days
Singing out oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
They were long days with the ghost who left me
We're haunted from what we’ve seen
Another force to cause emergency
Our paper hearts are folding
And torn apart as we hold them
What do we do this for?
What do we do this for?
What do we do this for?
We were born together, we’ll die together
We're haunted by what we’ve seen
We were born together, we’ll die together
Fourteen years since I've left this town
How can you love me when I’m not around?
I guess we’ve seen this all through the devils' eyes
When the darkness falls and the vultures rise
Singing out oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
They were long days they were long days
Singing out oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
They were long days with the ghost who left me
We're haunted by what we’ve seen
Another force to cause emergency
Our paper hearts are folding
And torn apart as we hold them
What do we do this for?
What do we do this for?
What do we do this for?
We were born together, we’ll die together
We're haunted by what we’ve seen
We were born together, we’ll die together
Something changed in us
In the arms of sinners
We were forged in the fire that we had within us
Something changed in us
In the arms of sinners
We were forged in the fire that we had within us
We're haunted by what we’ve seen
Another force to cause emergency
Our paper hearts are folding
And torn apart as we hold them
What do we do this for?
What do we do this for?
What do we do this for?
We were born together we’ll die together
What do we do this for?
What do we do this for?
What do we do this for?
We were born together, we’ll die together
We were born together, we’ll die together
Born together, we’ll die together
Born together, we’ll die together
Born together, we’ll die together
Born together, we’ll die together
Born together, we’ll die together
Born together, we’ll die together
