Give it up to us

Give it up to us And our calloused energy
That keeps us on The photographs will tell
Our timeless story For years to come Oh,
the centuries that carry
Our words will say More than we want them to

These days are all that's left
All the year's worth secrets kept
This is our time The shoreline becomes
Our only excuse To leave ourselves
And after it all

We will be reminded of what
What it means to fall
We're losing our sight
From all these Blinding lights
We'll have to keep Our eyes on the prize

Because there's too much distraction
From cameras flashing us back to the coast
Well, if we keep our focus on
We might be all right Oh,
the centuries that carry Our words will say

More than we want them to
These days are all that's left
All the year's worth secrets kept
This is our time The shoreline becomes
Our only excuse To leave ourselves
And after it all We will be reminded of what

What it means to fall
We've got our bottles
Filled with our past mistakes
And in the throttle We throw it all away
But all these problems

They just keep building up and we can't get away
This is our last chance

To turn our voice loud
And make ourselves
Ourselves heard.
