The Neighbourhood
Every Minute
[Verse 1]
He takes a breath, he runs as fast as
He ever has done in the past
And he breaks the door down and falls inside
This house on fire, will burn tonight
He hears screams upstairs where the TV's on
Here lies trouble where the house once was
Life flies by right in front of his eyes
And will it end tonight?
He shields his face, the roof falls down
And he fights his way upstairs now
But the screaming stops and the TV drowns out
And he hopes that he may have had, then a voice says:

[Chorus]
"This is for every lie you told
For every grudge you hold
For every minute that you have wasted"

[Verse 2]
He stops and stares in the bedroom
Out the mirror, there's no reflection
There's no people, there's no fire
Just a roof above a liar
He sees stars outside he's never seen before
Drops to his knees on the bedroom floor
Life flies by right in front of his eyes
But will it end tonight? Then a voice says:
[Chorus]
"This is for every lie you told
For every grudge you hold
For every minute that you have wasted
This is for every lie you told
For every grudge you hold
For every minute that you have wasted"

[Bridge]
He remembers long ago
A different life with a different soul
He made a promise, he didn't keep it at all
A life worth living is not his own
The gift was taken and it's his fault
Now he's left with just a void, and it says:

[Chorus]
"This is for every lie you told
For every grudge you hold
For every minute that you have wasted
This is for every lie you told
For every grudge you hold
For every minute that you have wasted"
