countdown - Dangerkids

Stop and wait, hold your applause

3, 2, 1, but the cameras pause

Lights go out and the frame goes soft

The color’s bled and the picture’s off

Time, it seems to stop

You get a little bit but not a lot

Dangerous kids, a bunch of misfits

Show you what we got

Yeah, it’s on tonight, I’m gone tonight

Playing way too hard just to fall tonight

Believe when I say when it’s over

You won’t believe anything that you saw tonight

So stop and wave to the silent crowd

3, 2, 1, and the empty sound

Applause, applause

Before we bring the fucking house down

Oh, it’s taking control now

Breaking open the gates

And tearing them down

It feeds on the violence

Just a number to them

A face in the crowd

Unbreakable

You’re selling yourself like a brand

And don’t you know

How much you pay

To sit in the palm of their hand?

I’m just a fake, just a lie

You build it up and I’ll break it down

And the truth, yeah, it’s mine

And it’s really all that I got

And time, it seems to stop

You get a little bit but not a lot

Dangerous kids, a bunch of misfits

Show you what we got

Open your eyes, you’re treading water

Before you drown in the truth, become the lie

I’d die tonight just to feel alive

(You're waking up)

We’ll die tonight just to feel alive

(You're waking up)

This is a countdown to nothing

Here in the palm of my hand

So will you let me destroy you

Like the machine that I am

This is a countdown to nothing

Here in the palm of my hand

So will you let me destroy you

Like the machine, like the machine

And tonight

We’ll die tonight just to feel alive

Open your eyes, you’re treading water

Before you drown in the truth, become the lie

I’d die tonight just to feel alive

(You're waking up)

We’ll die tonight just to feel alive

(You're waking up)

Dangerous kids, a bunch of misfits

Show you what we got

I’d die tonight just to feel alive

We’ll die tonight just to feel alive
