[Part I: Holiday] [Intro] Say hey! Cha! [Verse 1] Hear the sound of the fallin' rain Comin' down like an Armageddon flame (Hey!) The shame, the ones who died without a name Hear the dogs howlin' out of key To a hymn called "Faith and Misery" (Hey!) And bleed, the company lost the war today [Chorus] I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies This is the dawning of the rest of our lives On holiday! [Verse 2] Hear the drum poundin' out of time Another protester has crossed the line (Hey!) To find the money's on the other side Can I get another Amen? (Amen!) There's a flag wrapped around a score of men (Hey!) A gag, a plastic bag on a monument [Chorus] I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies This is the dawning of the rest of our lives On holiday! (Hey!) [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] Three, four! "The representative from California has the floor" [Breakdown] Sieg Heil to the president Gasman Bombs away is your punishment Pulverize the Eiffel towers Who criticize your government Bang bang goes the broken glass, and Kill all the fags that don't agree Trials by fire, settin' fire Is not a way that's meant for me Just 'cause (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!) Just 'cause, because we're outlaws, yeah! (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!) [Chorus] I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies This is the dawning of the rest of our lives I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies This is the dawning of the rest of our lives This is our lives on holiday! [Part II: Boulevard of Broken Dreams] [Verse 1] I walk a lonely road The only one that I have ever known Don't know where it goes But it's home to me, and I walk alone I walk this empty street On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams Where the city sleeps And I'm the only one, and I walk alone [Pre-Chorus] I walk alone, I walk alone I walk alone, I walk a— [Chorus] My shadow's the only one that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beatin' Sometimes, I wish someone out there will find me 'Til then, I walk alone [Post-Chorus] Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah [Verse 2] I'm walkin' down the line That divides me somewhere in my mind On the borderline Of the edge and where I walk alone Read between the lines What's fucked up, and everything's all right Check my vital signs To know I'm still alive, and I walk alone [Pre-Chorus] I walk alone, I walk alone I walk alone, I walk a— [Chorus] My shadow's the only one that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beatin' Sometimes, I wish someone out there will find me 'Til then, I walk alone [Post-Chorus] Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah Ah-ah, ah-ah I walk alone, I walk a— [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] I walk this empty street On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams Where the city sleeps And I'm the only one, and I walk a— [Chorus] My shadow's the only one that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beatin' Sometimes, I wish someone out there will find me 'Til then, I walk alone [Instrumental Outro]
