Dm All late and right back for your lies It’s easy to think twice A choice can change your life Am A# Angry fists angry eyes Gm Got you taken by surprise F And unleash all your Gm Am A demons upon them Am With your guns A# and your knives Gm Left them fighting for survive You’re F Gm the villain but you Am A play the victim A# Never duck no advice Gm Did you ever realize A# That your violence Gm had taken your virtue A# When you can’t wash away Gm The mistakes of yesterday Dm When the boys wearing C blue Come to greet you Chorus: Dm And I can hear the sirens F still calling your name C And I can see the ashes A# rise up from the flames Gm When love was still around Dm When love was still around C One day before all Am A# Gm F Gm Am A came crashing down Did you stop and regret? When the voice inside your head Got so quiet that you'd hear a pin drop Did you still like the view When their guns were aimed at you Screaming "Out of the house with your hands up!" Now you wait in the line For the prison bell to chime Singing "I fought the law but the law won" When you're done serving time You can look them in the eyes While you count all the live that you've broken Chorus: And I can hear the sirens still calling your name And I can see the ashes rise up from the flames When love was still around When love was still around One day before it all came crashing down And I can see the flashing lights take you away And now the tears are rolling down your mother's face When love was still around When love was still around One day before it all came crashing down When love was still around When love was still around Some day you'll see the life that you turned down Alive! Chorus: And I can hear the sirens still calling your name And I can see the ashes rise up from the flames When love was still around When love was still around One day before it all came crashing down And I can see the flashing lights take you away And now the tears are rolling down your mother's face When love was still around When love was still around One day before it all came crashing down When love was still around When love was still around One day before it all came crashing down When love was still around When love was still around Some day you'll see the life that you turned down Alive!
