[Verse 1]
All those times before
When I was just another face
Among the others keeping secrets
To save myself
I could blend into the background
And savor the unknown
I could practice preservation
And hide behind this shell

[Chorus]
But my gods are released
On a world that is falling down
My calm is a beast
That will not let me give up now
I know—I'm all or nothing

[Verse 2]
Oh, giving my elation
A little something to relax
All the others' indecisions
Will make me go mad
There's no time to hear the arguments
Or simply close my eyes
I believe this confrontation
Deserves my full attention

[Chorus]
When my gods are released
On a world that is falling down
My calm is a beast
That will not let me give up now
I know—I'm all or nothing
I'm all or nothing

[Bridge]
I can see why nothing has happened—promises strain
I'm writing this down as I run
Take all the examples and what have I learned?
Nothing can heal you when everything burns

[Chorus]
My gods are released
On a world that is falling down
My calm is a beast
That will not let me give—up—now
I'm all or nothing

[Outro]
I'm all or nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
