breach of silence Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No rest for the wicked.
Wake up.
Lost in this moment.
Take my hand.
We will burn this fucking city down.
I swear that I will never let you go.
I'll show you mine (I'll show you mine),
Wake up.
Salvation.
Spread your wings and carry on.
Let go of this affliction.
Shine bright like a fucking star.
Take this burden, forever in your heart, and set it free.
I can't remember anything about last night.
So much for endless dreams.
Wake up.
Salvation.
Spread your wings and carry on.
Let go of this affliction.
Shine bright like a fucking star.
You're so lost in my head.
I promise this is all I breathe.
Nothing, nothing could ever take this from me.
I can't feel the ground beneath my feet.
This is everything to me.
It's all I breathe.
It's all I breathe.
I will fall to my knees.
I won't learn from my mistakes.
I will fall to my knees.
I won't learn from my mistakes.
This world is in the palm of our hands tonight.
No rest for the wicked.
Wake up.
You're so lost in my head.
I promise this is all I breathe.
Nothing, nothing could ever take this from me.
