There's no savin' anything
I'll swallow the shine of the sun
There's no savin' anything
I'll swallow the sun
Chorus 1: [use Chorus 1 tab]
But I won't a runaway, 'cause I won't run
No, I won't be a runaway
What makes you think I enjoy being led to the flood?
We've got another thing comin' undone
And it's takin' us over
We don't bleed when we don't fight
Go ahead go ahead throw your arms in the air tonight
We don't bleed when we don't fight
Go ahead go ahead throw our shirts in the fire tonight
What makes you think I enjoy being led to the flood?
We've got another thing comin' undone
Chorus 2: [use chorus 2 tab]
But I won't be no runaway 'cause I won't run
No, I won't be a runaway 'cause I won't run
But I won't be no runaway
What makes you think I enjoy being led to the flood?
We've got another thing comin' undone
And it's takin' forever
We don't bleed when we don't fight
Go ahead go ahead throw your arms in the air tonight
We don't bleed when we don't fight
Go ahead go ahead throw our shirts in the fire tonight
What makes you think i enjoy being led to the flood?
We got another thing comin' undone, we got another thing comin' undone
And it's taking forever

I go breaking everything
With you swallowing the shine of the sun
I'll go breaking everything
With you swallowing the sun
Chorus 3: [use chorus 2 tab]
But I won't be no runaway, cause I won't run
No, I won't be no runaway, cause I won't run
No, I won't be no runaway
What makes you think I enjoy being led to the flood?
We got another thing comin' undone
And it's taking us over
We don't bleed when we don't fight
Go ahead go ahead throw your arms in the air tonight
We don't bleed
Go ahead go ahead throw our shirts in the fire tonight
What makes you think I enjoy being led to the flood?
We got another thing coming undone, we got another thing coming undone
And it's taking us over
And it's taking forever
