propose that we devise a plan   down to every last detail - we cannot fail   'cuz the only thing that's standing in our way   is disastrous betrayal   so let the driving force prevail      now i'm falling back on all the dreams we left behind   it's a lesson that i never thought i'd learn   tonight i'm gonna sacrifice something i really love   feel it melt into my hands and   let it burn - all night long      ever since the day it all began   massive walls surrounding me - on every side   now i hear a crash - they all come tumbling down   as memories collide - i'm living for that wild ride      could it be that i've forgotten what i came here for?   when i leave this world, i never will return   i know the only way for me to save my soul tonight   is to light the midnight lamp and   let it burn - all night long      what can i say? you know what it means to me   i would kill to be where i belong   i know this thing could live endlessly   but i can hear them saying   "better let it all go up in flames"
