the  reality  -  memphis  may  fire

these  streets  are  crowded  with  cowards  disguised  as  men.

they  are  paying  no  consequence  for  their  actions,

so  we'll  all  give  in.

i  say  the  same  things

over  and  over  and  over  again,

but  you  act  like  you've  never  heard  them.

we  were  created  to  set  an  example.

so  what  is  this,  what  is  this?

this  is  the  same  old  story,

this  is  the  same  old  scene.

we're  living  our  lives  right  out  of  a  magazine,

i  guess  we'll  never  know!

have  we  gone  from  little  to  less,

to  nothing  at  all,  nothing  at  all?

it  seems  like  every  soul

has  been  sold  for  a  dollar  or  less.

so  i  guess  we'll  never  know

how  good  it  could  have  been.

how  good  it  could  have  been!

savor  every  breath

that  enters  your  lungs,

i  promise  it  won't  last  forever.

and  by  the  time  you  realize

you  were  wrong,

you'll  be  far  gone.

savor  every  breath

that  enters  your  lungs,

i  promise  it  won't  last  forever.

and  by  the  time  you  realize

you  were  wrong,  you'll  be  far  gone!

follow  me  or  back  out  now.

follow  me  with  all  your  heart

or  back  out,  back  out  now!

we  all  swim  in  a  sea  of  pride,

where  character  is  rare.

(where  character  is  rare)

with  every  passing  day,

it  only  gets  worse

and  no  one  seems  to  care.

we  all  die  wondering  what  if  i

what  if  i  would  have  tried?

and  while  you're  begging  for  life  on  you  knees,

you'll  realize  you  were  never  happy!

have  we  gone  from  little  to  less,

to  nothing  at  all,  nothing  at  all?

it  seems  like  every  soul

has  been  sold  for  a  dollar  or  less.

i  guess  we'll  never  know

how  good  it  could  have  been.

the  clouds  begin  to  move  in  rhythm,

there  is  a  storm  in  the  sky.

i  will  cause  a  disaster,

create  an  earthquake

and  watch  as  you  shake.

i  will  cause  a  disaster,

watch  as  you  shake!

we  all  die  wondering  what  if  i

what  if  i  would  have  tried?

what  if  i  would  have  tried?

i  guess  we'll  never  know!

it  seems  like  every  soul

has  been  sold  for  a  dollar  or  less.

i  guess  we'll  never  know

how  good  it  could  have  been.

how  good  it  could  have  been!
