Where to begin? In this wicked world? There's a million others just like you You talk too much, you're all out of touch Side to my watch, no side to me, not a nice onsight You talk too much, you're all out of touch Side to my watch, no side to me, not a nice onsight It's something ghosts we forced to create When advance on tiptoe is actually worthless Got no purpose, they're a place you deface all your work It's the point of you'll never return from this, learn from us You're building the bridges they burn for us Getting superfluous, miles of waves Depraising abundance to make sure you stay So, the story goes You're the one that we'll remember They call the neighbors of love Why put in the effort? Cause you're not special, none of us are Even those plagued by stardom fade into dust Nothing matters, you're that legend I read A puppet, a pawn, if I fail, I'm gone So everyone else can be happy With no question, I fall in line Believing promises every time Soldier on board, send me a prophecy Cause I know my place now I watched the prophecy Outside, out of mind, we'll never see the same view Got so lost, so exhausted, but you can't give in Catching fire, you ignite, forget the ones who saved you There's no bias, the nobles never win And so, we close our eyes and pretend That this might end right Just a means to an end Why put up a fight then? Cause you're not special, none of us are Even those plagued by stardom fade into dust Nothing matters, how much more love can I spend? A puppet, a pawn, if I fail, I'm gone So everyone falling cannot stand With no question, I fall in line And play my part so the chosen shine For so long, I'm trapped up and I'm left out of the sun Cause I know my place now I was watching rings of glass As the bad news comes to pass A million eyes demanding an encore till the very last I've got to find my whereabouts, my own way This moment passing is a debt I gotta pay right now Just look me in the eyes, it's time they realize The man on top means nothing, you don't got it, hold on Survive with me on your front lines So you can have what's mine So you can take it when it's over, leave that to me How the story goes You're the one that'll remember My current neighbors That love me Why put in the effort? Cause you're not special, none of us are Even though it's like we're starting to fade into dust Nothing matters, who that legend I be? A puppet, a pawn, if I fail, I'm gone So everyone else can be happy With no question, I fall in line Believing promises every time So just onward, step me up on the stage Cause I know my place now Watch the prophecy
