Bright lights and silhouettes
Blurring the dark and the light
Tripped on a live wire
Now we will tumble into night
Break through the perfect mold
And hold back the enemy within
Shatter the mirror
And see the world for what it truly is
Churning turning
Falling slowly down
Getting warmer
Ever-closing sound
Crowded at twilight
And barren by dawn
Why must we sit around
While they bring the world to it's knees
And how can you stand around
When we can barely breathe
Cast out the falsities
So winter can turn into spring
Cornered and terrified, you carry the sword
Happily pushed to extremes
Churning turning
Twirling slowly 'round
Heart is colder
When you wear the crown
Self inflicted
Broken bruised machine
Floats like a butterfly
And aches like a dream
You expect no consequences
Hide yourself in your pretenses
One too many times forgiven
Facts cannot be killed if hidden
Time cannot be bought it's borrowed
Towers built to ebb your sorrow
Play pretend and flip the blame
Heart of the inferno
Middle of the bright crimson sky
Change and the miracle
Gave us a new way to die
Churning turning
Warning through the years
Wear your warpaint
Crocodile tears
Churning turning
Running out of time
Bearing witness
To the thorns of life
Clouded by clarity
Your "truth" is a lie
You're not blessed with knowledge untold
You're simply too scared that you have no control
This isn't reality
This is a cage of fear and pain, loathing and rage
Are you really that oblivious
Are you really that blind
It's an idiot's game, and you win every time
So step right up and claim your prize
You're not disciples
You're mindless acolytes
