The 11th Hour

Lyrics

[Intro: Tim Armstrong] Alright [Verse 1: Tim Armstrong] Hey little sister, do you know what time it was When you finally seen all your broken dreams Come crashin' down your door? I said, they demand an answer, and they demand it quick Or the questions fade and then the wasted days Come crawlin' back for more And I said [Chorus] (Do you know where the power lies?) And who pulls the strings? (Do you know where the power lies?) I said it starts and ends with you [Verse 2: Tim Armstrong] The face of isolation Well, that's one you recognize When you can't get straight It's a lonely place And it's one you do despise I said, boredom is for sale now And the helplessness you feel Is a wounded dove and the hawks are above Blood splattered on a reel to reel And I said [Chorus] (Do you know where the power lies?) And who pulls the strings? (Do you know where the power lies?) I said it starts and ends with you [Interlude] [Verse 3: Tim Armstrong] Yeah, I was almost over And my world was almost gone In a sudden rush I could almost touch the Things that I'd done wrong My jungle's made of concrete And through the silence I could feel That my aim is true and I will walk on through These mountains made of steel And I said [Chorus] (Do you know where the power lies?) And who pulls the strings? (Do you know where the power lies?) I said it starts and ends with you [Outro: Tim Armstrong] Oh, I said it starts and ends with you I said it start and end with you
