lyrics

We've walked away
We're gone
There's no coming back
Like the dark at the dawn
Under attack
The seasons change
Summer to Fall
Just an arrow in your range
If you get hit, crawl
But don't forget to deliver it

It's cold today
There's frost
Where the statues stay
We got lost
With a chance to get away

Take us away in a straitjacket
Take us away on the bandwagon
But don't let them take us if they don't know where to go
Give it to us in a straitjacket
Give it to us in a pawn shop
But don't give it to us if you're going to take it away
We'll turn the night into day

Running gets old
It's hard
When you can't stop and take a break
I guess I'll stop when I'm dead
Or the jacket covers my head

It's so put off
When you said
You like the leaves when they're yellow and red
As if we've come across
A place where you've actually seen them

Take us away in a straitjacket
Take us away on the bandwagon
But don't let them take us if they don't know where to go
Give it to us in a straitjacket
Give it to us in a pawn shop
But don't give it to us if you're going to take it away
We'll turn the night into day

Take us away in a straitjacket
Take us away on the bandwagon
But don't take us with you if you don't know where to go
Give it to us in a straitjacket
Give it to us in a pawn shop
But don't give it to us if you're going to take it away

Take us away in a straitjacket
Take us away on the bandwagon
But don't let them take us if they don't know where to go
Give it to us in a straitjacket
Give it to us in a pawn shop
But don't give it to us if you're going to take it away
We'll turn the night into day

We'll turn the night into day
