Lyrics (Start at 0:23):

Let’s see the fight kid, if it means a thing at all
Just know I’d take a dive right now
Or baby we can go, we can go, we can go
I’ve got a light head, I’m asleep on the ropes
A slow and steady five rounds for ya
But baby, we can go, we can go, we can go
I’ve been walking these battle grounds for too long now
I’m ready to find out how much I can take

They hung empty frames in a hall of lies
There’s violence in silence
I’m no innocent guy
But I know I can change
And I’ll stay between the lines
There’s violence in silence
Hit me like you mean it

I should face it, we’ve seen quite enough
I’m throwing in the towel right now
So baby, let me know, let me know, let me know
I’m ready to lay down my gloves before you
I’m leaving at sundown, say you still believe

They hung empty frames in a hall of lies
There’s violence in silence
I’m no innocent guy
But I know I can change
And I’ll stay between the lines
There’s violence in silence
Hit me like you mean it
You mean it don’t you?
Conjure up some demons
It’s easy, won’t you
Chew me up and spit me out
Does it make you happy now?
Hit me like you mean it, you mean it don’t you?

Save yourself from me
Say you always will still believe
When the future has unfolded
Maybe grey skies are golden

They hung empty frames in a hall of lies
There’s violence in silence
I’m no innocent guy
But I know I can change
And I’ll stay between the lines
There’s violence in silence
Hit me like you mean it
You mean it don’t you?
Conjure up some demons
It’s easy, won’t you
Chew me up and spit me out
Does that make you happy now?
Hit me like you mean it, you mean it don’t you?
