25 to life is what I'm heading for but I can see no signs Of an exit or an escape, these streets are taking me away I never wanted to run (They told me not to) But now I know what I've done (I didn't know you) This is what I have to live with (You are what they have to live without) And there's an angel looking down from up above And it carries all the names that we once loved I'm hearing the sirens call for us Surrender your knife, it's time to save a life I don't even want to understand the trauma that is taking over me Is this the life that I want to lead? Surrounded by your bad advice and all these things I leave behind They'll light the way but these streets all look the same Can't you understand that you're a coward not a man? So hand it over, give it up and save yourself And there's an angel looking down from up above And it carries all the names that we once loved I'm hearing the sirens call for us Surrender your knife, it's time to save a life And there's an angel looking down from up above And it carries all the names that we once loved I'm hearing the sirens call for us Surrender your knife, it's time to save a life And there's an angel looking down from up above And it carries all the names that we once loved I'm hearing the sirens call for us Surrender your knife, it's time to save a life Can't you understand that you're a coward not a man? So hand it over, give it up and save yourself
