You'll beat all hope right in front of me 
I guess I shouldn't need it 
There's so much left that I have to do 
Make room there's nothing to it 
Take down all of the photographs 
Who know's what we'll achieve here 
I won't let go of the memories 

I waited for the final note 
The usual chord to change it all 
I couldn't keep the extra life 
It's yours to hold but it isn't right 

I'll take my time just to see it through 
Kill all reason and feeling 
Stand up on your own and be counted for 
This is only between us 
Carve out me name on your bedroom wall 
You are all I believe in 
Give up one more excuse 

I waited for the final note 
The usual chord to change it all 
I couldn't keep the extra life 
It's yours to hold but it isn't right 

Get up, stand out, shut up
