[Verse]
This is your consequence, for all the things you did,
and every little thing, you've been counting on,
is your tourniquet, don't forget to tighten it,
before all your blood is gone.
So keep your head up, keep fighting on.
Not everything, not everything is lost!

[Introduction]
Welcome to the Underleagues!
Go!
[Verse]
Give up on counting all your losses,
you've lost those chances by now.
But welcome to the club,
where failures are allowed.
We all screw up sometime,
and we accept that as a fact.
We'll wait until we succeed.
Then we'll be the ones with the last laughs.
[Chorus]
This is who we are. This is who we are!
This is who we'll be.
We won't forget the memories,
and all the things that we've seen.
You're not changing anything.
And you're going nowhere fast.
The underleagues are here.
But, prepare to finish last. Prepare to finish last!
[Verse]
I've got my true friends,
right here, by my side.
We've got each other's backs and we're feeling like,
we can take on anything tonight.
We won't listen to what you say,
not even when we're dead.
We're putting our foots down.
Now is when it ends!
[Chorus]
This is who we are. This is who we are!
This is who we'll be.
We won't forget the memories,
and all the things that we've seen.
You're not changing anything.
And you're going nowhere fast.
The underleagues are here.
But, prepare to finish last. Prepare to finish last!

[Verse]
All the girls and guys, want to drink away the night.
Everyone's with someone, who isn't even their type.
As much as I want to say, everybody is underage.
Danger for a night of fun, let's all agree for fair trade.
The event of the night, isn't even what you think.
No it's not the popular girl making out with the geek.
It's a simple game with alcohol, and twenty-two cups.
Rebuttals and marksmanship, an intense game of fun.
[Chorus]
One cup, let's start the show.
Two cups, come on! Let's go!
Three, four, and five. Let's finish this game tonight.
Six cups, yeah, drink up.
Seven cups, you're just about done.
Eight, nine, and ten. Too bad this game has to end.
[Verse]
Choose a partner, and choose em' wisely.
'Cause if you're up against guys, a girl can be distracting.
A guy against two girls, he's pretty much lost.
Girls have been known to handle their... *Clears throat*
[Chorus]
One cup, let's start the show.
Two cups, come on! Let's go!
Three, four, and five. Let's finish this game tonight.
Six cups, yeah, drink up.
Seven cups, you're just about done.
Eight, nine, and ten. Too bad this game has to end.
[Bridge]
Lose when you want to, and win when it matters.
Because when you least expect it, we've got a challenger.
[Chorus]
One cup, let's start the show.
Two cups, come on! Let's go!
Three, four, and five. Let's finish this game tonight.
Six cups, yeah, drink up.
Seven cups, you're just about done.
Eight, nine, and ten. Too bad this game has to end.

[Verse]
I've been biting my tongue and I'm holding my breath,
for a wish that I know I'm not gonna get.
Is this wishful thinking? Or am I just getting older with my regrets?
Here I am, here I am again.
Counting down the seconds until the end,
of my lifeline.
[Chorus]
You've settled in, with the thought of forgetting me.
That always was the easiest part.
Like a dream you don't remember, and the story is at the tip of your tongue.
But every single detail, keeps the air from your lungs.
[Verse]
I've been writing you songs, I've been writing a lot,
about how I love you, though you've hated me for so long.
Is this how it ends? Give me a story that doesn't end with, "Just Friends."
So prove me wrong, at least tell me a lie.
Because I feel like I've been doing nothing right.
Give me an escape.
[Chorus]
You've settled in, with the thought of forgetting me.
That always was the easiest part.
Like a dream you don't remember, and the story is at the tip of your tongue.
But every single detail, keeps the air from your lungs.
[Breakdown]
[Chorus]
You've settled in, with the thought of forgetting me.
That always was the easiest part.
Like a dream you don't remember, and the story is at the tip of your tongue.
But every single detail, keeps the air from your lungs.
I drove to your house on a whim, to see if you were looking out your window.
And I swear I’ll never do this again,
but the echoes in my head are just too much to take when I’m all alone.
I just find it hard to take in, when I’m sitting, reading all that you wrote me.
I swear I’ll never read it again,
but the echoes in my head are just too much to take when I’m all alone.

[Intro]
I'm hoping luck is on my side, I've been waiting for it all night.
Where you kiss me on the lips, and you take me inside.
[Verse]
As I'm walking you to your doorstep, I'm running out of lines.
This nervousness built up in my chest, is messing with my mind.
Call me crazy, this is kind of a big deal.
Just excited for the grand reveal.
I'll do anything for you, if you do this one thing for me.
[Chorus]
I'll keep the secret if you let me inside.
I promise you that I will lock the gate, behind me.
And leave my opinions at the door.
We could take it slow, if that's what you want.
Just let me know, and I will follow along.
If you're gonna take a chance in your life, please let it be tonight.
[Verse]
We're standing at your doorstep, and you're smiling like you know what's on my mind.
You unlock the door, and then look me in the eyes.
Help me I'm freaking out, my heart is beating.
Fast and faster, I hate this feeling.
I'll do anything you want, if this ends the way I want it to.
[Chorus]
I'll keep the secret if you let me inside.
I promise you that I will lock the gate, behind me.
And leave my opinions at the door.
We could take it slow, if that's what you want.
Just let me know, and I will follow along.
If you're gonna take a chance in your life, please let it be tonight.

[Verse]
I know, I know you've lost it. Three words, "You are forgotten!"
You might as well quit while you're behind. You're never gonna get ahead
If you're calling this a fight, I am calling this a war!
I've already given in. I won't give up anymore.
[Pre-Chorus]
If you wanted anything, all you had to do was try.
Instead you stood for nothing, and wasted all of my time.
[Chorus]
Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh. Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh. Oh, whoa.
[Verse]
So if you think,... If you think! This world is going down.
Think again! And stick around.
Give us a chance, ... Give us a chance! To prove ourselves.
To the rest of, the world.
[Pre-Chorus]
If you wanted anything, all you had to do was try.
Instead you stood for nothing, and wasted all of my time.
[Chorus]
Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh. Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh. Oh, whoa. Let's go!
[Breakdown]
[Gang Vocal Outro]
Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh. Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh. Oh, whoa.

[Verse]
I've been quiet lately so my knowledge of words has left.
And it's starting to feel like, I'm my only friend.
I've been looking for an escape, I know there's the easy way out.
But the easy way was hard to do, and I don't know what to do now.
[Chorus]
Don't stop fighting 'til you're dead! Don't stop fighting!
You knew this was gonna be very hard.
Don't let them get to your head. Don't let them get to your head.
You've already made it this far,... With your battle scars.
[Verse]
I'm chasing dreams, that are broken memories.
I'm chasing all the little things, that left me lost.
I'm running from these nightmares, that catch up to me at night.
But I know they'll still be there, when I close my eyes.
[Breakdown]
When I close,... My,... Eyes!
[Chorus]
Don't stop fighting 'til you're dead! Don't stop fighting!
You knew this was gonna be very hard.
Don't let them get to your head. Don't let them get to your head.
You've already made it this far,... With your battle scars.
[Solo]
[Bridge]
These battle scars, remind me of home.
They're a constant reminder of when I was alone.
I'm tired of romances, and happy endings.
Because I know I'm just attending for the end.
[Outro]
Have I lost all my respect?
Or did I lose all my friends?
I was wasting my time on things I should forget.

At the Speed of Now

[Verse]
The greatest thing of all, is just a kiss away.
So believe me when I say, I dedicate my heart to you today.
We're standing at your doorstep, and you're playing with your hair.
And now it's like we're both in a game of, truth or dare.
The truth is that I love you. The dare is that we kiss.
Before I finished counting to three, we were, locking lips.
[Chorus]
I've got a heartbeat faster than light, but I'm moving at the speed of now.
It's like I'm jumping galaxies, but my feet are on the ground.
And a hundred hearts would be too few, to carry all my love for you.
But I'm tripping and stumbling, over everything you do.
[Pre-Verse]
Da, da, da. Da, da, da, da da.
Da, da, da. Da, da, da, da da.
Da, da, da. Da, da, da, da da.
Da, da, da. Da, da, da, da da.
[Verse]
You ask me to come inside, for a little surprise.
You tell me it's worth it, I can see the truth in your eyes.
So I take your hand and, follow you up to your room.
You lock the door and kiss me. Yeah, what's next was up to you.
The truth is that I know, exactly where we'll end.
But the dare sounds so much better as it plays through my head.
[Chorus]
I've got a heartbeat faster than light, but I'm moving at the speed of now.
It's like I'm jumping galaxies, but my feet are on the ground.
And a hundred hearts would be too few, to carry all my love for you.
But I'm tripping and stumbling, over everything you do.
[Bridge]
And every minute that passes us by,
is sixty seconds I wish I could freeze.
Because if I could stop time,
I'd keep this moment of you and me.
Every minute turns into an hour.
And every hour turns into a day.
So we'll watch a meteor shower,
and I'll take your breath away.
[Chorus]
I've got a heartbeat faster than light, but I'm moving at the speed of now.
It's like I'm jumping galaxies, but my feet are on the ground.
And a hundred hearts would be too few, to carry all my love for you.
But I'm tripping and stumbling, over everything you do.

[Verse]
I closed my eyes, and I, held my breath,
after asking you to dance with me.
I was,... Deaf from,... Your audible silence.
And your presence was worth the distance.
Then you smiled and said that you've been waiting.
[Pre-Chorus]
We'll dance the night away.
Creating lifelong memories.
[Chorus]
Here we go all the ladies and the guys,
everybody is dressed up to the nines.
So get up! Get up! Don't waste your time.
Everybody is gonna get down tonight.
[Verse]
I'm as nervous as nervous can be, the prettiest girl here is dancing with me.
I'm holding tightly because I don't want to let go!
I'm losing my mind. Because I'm running out of time. I need to find a way. To make you mine.
How do I take one step at a time when I've only got tonight?
[Pre-Chorus]
We'll dance the night away.
Creating lifelong memories.
[Chorus]
Here we go all the ladies and the guys,
everybody is dressed up to the nines.
So get up! Get up! Don't waste your time.
Everybody is gonna get down tonight.
[Bridge]
I need to listen to learn, but I've got to learn to listen.
If I want to get anywhere with you!
[Chorus]
Here we go all the ladies and the guys,
everybody is dressed up to the nines.
So get up! Get up! Don't waste your time.
Everybody is gonna get down tonight.
[Chorus]
Here we go all the ladies and the guys,
everybody is dressed up to the nines.
So get up! Get up! Don't waste your time.
Everybody is gonna get down tonight.

[Verse]
I've been chasing a dead end for years now.
And I don't know what's going on.
You've been so close to me, but it feels like you're long gone.
I don't even know what to say now.
It's like I never even knew you at all.
You're playing hardball, I'm getting stonewalled,...
And I'm sick and tired of trying to stand tall.
You're kicking me when I'm down.
I try my best to not be down for the count.
But I'm getting back up so we could do this over again.
[Chorus]
Please call me out because I'm falling for you now.
Ask me to stay, I promise that I'll stick around.
Just say the word cause you know that I am down,...
To do anything you want, if you'd just listen to me.
[Verse]
I can't count the times that we've been here before.
When you're around I keep on asking for more.
The moments of silence are some of the things I adore.
They add to the list of things of why I want to be yours.
Just give me a minute to explain myself.
It seems the friend zone is my call for help.
I sell myself short because of your unsaid farewell.
I have hated you for that, because hard is where I fell.
[Pre-Chorus]
And I keep falling, I keep falling,...
[Chorus]
Please call me out because I'm falling for you now.
Ask me to stay, I promise that I'll stick around.
Just say the word cause you know that I am down,...
To do anything you want, if you'd just listen to me.
[Bridge]
Am I, just lost, inside of your translation?
I'll try, my best, to resist this temptation now.
Are you listening?
[Outro]
Calling quits just never quite cut it.
Countless last places for the hopeless romantic.
I won't give up on this now. I'm hoping I won't get shutdown.
Give me the chance to show you I'm worth it.
Calling quits just never quite cut it.
Countless last places for the hopeless romantic.
I won't give up on this now. I'm hoping I won't get shutdown.
Give me the chance to show you we'd be perfect.

[Verse]
I'm trying my best to forget everything.
These memories are like haunting dreams.
So forgive me for giving up so soon.
I didn't want to end up just like you.
[Chorus]
It's not leaving you behind. It's called, forgetting my past.
I don't know how to say this.
I was, faking our friendship,... Because, I was too afraid to end it.
I'm giving in, I'm giving in,... To moving on.
[Verse]
When your voice plays back in my head,... I pretend,...
They're a broken record of things left unsaid.
Let's not forget the time I spent,... Chasing your ghost.
My memories were backdrops for these nightmares and shadows.
[Chorus]
It's not leaving you behind. It's called, forgetting my past.
I don't know how to say this.
I was, faking our friendship,... Because, I was too afraid to end it.
I'm giving in, I'm giving in,... To moving on.
[Bridge]
I thought you were perfect in my book.
I thought you were everything I'd need.
But before I go, I just want you to know,
that you were the worst thing that's happened to me.
[Pre-Outro]
This isn't hello. It's the last goodbye.
[Outro]
I'll keep my head up, and I'll keep fighting on.
Because that's the only thing I know how to do.
I learned from my mistakes, from pushing you away.
Maybe you'll learn from this lesson someday!
