The Wreckoning (Live and Kicking)

[Intro: Elias Soriano]
Turn the lights on, lemme see this fuckin’ sold out show!
Let's see all these motherfuckers in here!
Light these motherfuckers up!
Lemme see your fuckin’ hands, people!
This is our dance song, so I wanna see you fuckin’ dance!

[Verse 1: Elias Soriano & Andrew Goldman, both]
Oh, broken glass all around you
Try to hide, but they find you every time
Even with everything you try to do
People can still look and see right through you
Lookin’ like you came from a magazine
Regular jock star, beauty queen
Covered in labels, barely able to speak for yourself
So you look and other people and help yourself
You have your (Passport) so you can be identified
In case the most important thing is lost
And every chance you take just to be satisfied
Is just another link in the chain of your wreckin’ ball

[Pre-Chorus 1: Elias Soriano]
A link in the chain of your wreckin’ ball
Link in the chain of your wreckin’ ball
Link in the chain of your wreckin’ ball
Link in the chain of your wreckin’ ball

[Chorus 1: Elias Soriano with Andrew Goldman]
This is the reckoning that you feel happening
The wrecking ball destroying it all
The reckoning that you feel happening
The wrecking ball destroying it all

[Refrain 1: Elias Soriano]
The bullet inside of the smokin’ gun
Knife in my back when I try to run
Rain in the days that I’m stuck outside
One to reveal when I try to hide

[Verse 2: Elias Soriano Andrew Goldman]
Oh, Mr. and Mrs. Popularity, the life of all the parties
Have to be the first to be the bad ones
Get fucked up, and have too much fun
Daddy’s not here to hold your hand
Time to buck up, be a man
Nothin’ was stoppin’ you before
Why stop now? ’Cause you're on the floor?
I’m sure you’ll get (Your close-up)
Your fifteen minutes of fame and praise
You’re the talk of the town
And every (Chance you took) just to be (Glorified)
Is just another brick in the wall that you’re bringin’ down

[Pre-Chorus 2: Elias Soriano]
Brick in the wall that you’re bringin’ down
Brick in the wall that you’re bringin’ down
Brick in the wall that you’re bringin’ down
Brick in the wall that you’re bringin’ down

[Chorus 2: Elias Soriano with Andrew Goldman]
This is the reckoning that you feel happening
The wrecking ball destroying it all
The reckoning that you feel happening
The wrecking ball destroying it all

[Refrain: Elias Soriano]
The bullet inside of the smokin’ gun
Knife in my back when I try to run
Rain in the days that I’m stuck outside
One to reveal when I try to hide

[Bridge: Elias Soriano]
So you try to end destruction
Of the things that make you function
But you want no interruption
And because of your selfish assumptions
I’m acting out this way
Ooh, you cause the eruption happenin’ inside of me

[Refrain 2: Elias Soriano]
Bullet inside of the smokin’ gun
Knife in my back when I try to run
Rain in the days that I’m stuck outside
Come on, Fort Lauderdale!

[Chorus 3: Elias Soriano Andrew Goldman, both]
This is the reckoning that you feel happening
Wrecking ball destroying it all
(The reckoning) That you feel happening
The wrecking ball destroying it all
(This is the) Reckoning that you feel happening
Wrecking ball destroying it…

[Outro: Elias Soriano]
Bullet inside of the smokin’ gun
Knife in my back when I try to run
Rain in the days that I’m stuck outside
One to reveal when I try to hide
Link in the chain of my wreckin’ ball
Brick in the wall that you’re bringin’ down
Face of the person you had inside
Forcin’ the truth when I hide
