Structure + Lyrics: 

Intro 

Verse 1 
take advantage of these times, you said 
you let me down 
it hasn't been the first time 
as i'm falling in the pit of fire my mind's made up 
i'm never coming back here 

Chorus 
how long would it take me to walk across the united states all alone? 
the west coast has been traumatized 
and i think i'm the only one still alive 

Verse 2 
is it just a coincidence to see you by yourself with no direction? 
now its time to move on and 
don't you know that things aren't getting better 

Chorus 
how long would it take me to walk across the united states all alone? 
the west coast has been traumatized 
and i think i'm the only one still alive 

Bridge 
when the world caves in what are you going to do 
when the world caves in what are you going to do for me? 
when the world caves in what are you going to do 
when the world caves in what are you going to do for me? 

(don't try and stop me 
because i'm falling fast into this pit of fire which surrounds us all 
in a blanket of fear that i've been wrapped in for years 
you can't stop me) 

Chorus (soft) 
how long would it take me to walk across the united states all alone? 
the west coast has been traumatized 
and i think i'm the only one still alive 

Chorus 
how long would it take me to walk across the united states all alone? 
the west coast has been traumatized 
and i think i'm the only one still alive
