Stand Down
What kind of pretty lie
Do you think I should live
Let me entertain you
If that's your wish
Putting on a smile
For quite awhile
I'm the master of hope
Got the fairytale afloat
For now
Stand down, my love
Don't want to live this way
We'll go down in flames
And this will be the end
Of everything you knew
Of you and me
Stand down, my love
You know you can't go back
To another life
On another track
With everything you knew
Of you and me
What kind of pretty lie
Do you want me to tell
Maybe I should say
We haven't been through hell
You gambled on our life
Stepping out on your wife
But nobody will know
What happened in this show
For now
Stand down, my love
Don't want to live this way
We'll go down in flames
And this will be the end
Of everything you knew
Of you and me
Stand down, my love
You know you can't go back
To another life
On another track
With everything you knew
Of you and me
Let me entertain you, baby
It's the last you'll hear my name
Before I exit the spotlight
And walk off the stage
Stand down, my love
Don't want to live this way
We'll go down in flames
And this will be the end
Of everything you knew
Of you and me
Stand down, my love
You know you can't go back
To another life
On another track
With everything you knew
Of you and me
Stand down, Stand back
This is not the way a hero acts
Stand down, Stand back
This is not the way a hero acts
Stand down
Stand down
Stand down
Do you think I should live
Let me entertain you
If that's your wish
Putting on a smile
For quite awhile
I'm the master of hope
Got the fairytale afloat
For now
Stand down, my love
Don't want to live this way
We'll go down in flames
And this will be the end
Of everything you knew
Of you and me
Stand down, my love
You know you can't go back
To another life
On another track
With everything you knew
Of you and me
What kind of pretty lie
Do you want me to tell
Maybe I should say
We haven't been through hell
You gambled on our life
Stepping out on your wife
But nobody will know
What happened in this show
For now
Stand down, my love
Don't want to live this way
We'll go down in flames
And this will be the end
Of everything you knew
Of you and me
Stand down, my love
You know you can't go back
To another life
On another track
With everything you knew
Of you and me
Let me entertain you, baby
It's the last you'll hear my name
Before I exit the spotlight
And walk off the stage
Stand down, my love
Don't want to live this way
We'll go down in flames
And this will be the end
Of everything you knew
Of you and me
Stand down, my love
You know you can't go back
To another life
On another track
With everything you knew
Of you and me
Stand down, Stand back
This is not the way a hero acts
Stand down, Stand back
This is not the way a hero acts
Stand down
Stand down
Stand down
