"Rue The Day" lyrics
"Rue The Day"
And once again
It's all been blown to hell
It always seems to be the same way
As he pretends
That he is something else
The devil tries to play the saint
He'll just watch you twist and turn
Laughing all the way
Breathe it in, breathe it out
It's up to you
Stand your ground
Don't let him get his way
He pulls you in, tears you down
In the end
There's no doubt
Oh, you're gonna live to rue the day
What's coming next?
Judgement for all the schemes?
God, I detest
The things I've seen
Don't fail the test
Revenge is fantasy
Eye for an eye
Not meant to be, no
Don't fall prey
And don't give in
Breathe it in, breathe it out
It's up to you
Stand your ground
Don't let him get his way
He pulls you in, tears you down
In the end
There's no doubt
Oh, you're gonna live to rue the day
Live to rue the day
Just like the desert sun
The respite never comes
Day in, day out, it's never ending
Constructs of ill intent
Have filled your heart again
Please find the center and let go, oh
Even though you've done no wrong
You fear you're not that strong
Though part of you is dead and gone
You still have control
Breathe it in, breathe it out
It's up to you
Stand your ground
Don't let him get his way
He pulls you in, tears you down
In the end
There's no doubt
Oh, you're gonna live to rue the day
Live to rue the day

Rev Theory - "Broken Bones" Walking a fine line between wrong and right
And I know there is a part of me that I try to hide
But I can't win and I can't fight

Running away from the world outside
Now...
Creed - "Bullets" Walking around I hear the sounds of the earth seeking relief
I'm trying to find a reason to live

Blacktop Mojo - "Why" I see your silhouette against a red sunset
The wind blows through my hands, it leads me to the West
I've drifted many days, but still I'm left wondering
Will I ever find my way?
And I long for that...

I look exactly like what you had always wanted to see
When I pretend, I can forget about the criminal I am
Stealing second after second just 'cause...
Thirty Seconds To Mars - "Closer To The Edge" I don't remember the moment I tried to forget
I lost myself, is it better not said
Now I'm closer to the edge
It was a thousand to one and a million to two
Time to go down in flames and I'm taking...
