There's a movie playing in my head
Bombs falling and children crying
The Sun rise and the sky turns red
Load your guns tonight
There's a song playing down the hall
All alone there's an old man dying
I cant feel anything at all
Something isn't right!

This is a state of emergency
I've been running from a tragedy
There's a battle raging in my head
And I don't wanna be left for dead
This is a state of emergency
Don't wanna be another casualty
There's a cemetery in my head
And I don't wanna be left for dead

There's a world standing in my way
Father said that I best stop trying
Stand down it'll be okay
You don't have to fight
There's a picture hanging on the wall
Of a memory that I'm denying
The Sun sets and the angels fall
Something isn't right!

This is a state of emergency
I've been running from a tragedy
There's a battle raging in my head
And I don't wanna be left for dead
This is a state of emergency
Don't wanna be another casualty
There's a cemetery in my head
And I don't wanna be left for dead

No don't leave me here alone
I don't wanna make this hell my home
I would rather die than sell my soul
I would rather lie than let you go

There's a voice screaming in my head
Telling me that I best stop crying
Stand up it'll be okay
Load your guns tonight

This is a state of emergency
I've been running from a tragedy
There's a battle raging in my head
And I don't wanna be left for dead
This is a state of emergency
Don't wanna be another casualty
There's a cemetery in my head
And I don't wanna be left for dead

State of emergency!
State of emergency!
State of emergency!

I don't wanna be left for dead

Left for dead!
Left for dead!
