You're an illusion in a world of disillusion
Gold made from a distant, ancient fusion
You're the crown of creation as we know it
But given just a bit more rope and you'll blow it

I might exaggerate to say this city's burning
But when you're sleeping safe and sound the world's still turning
The trivialities are there to entertain you
To cozily stop thinking 'bout what they do

Throw your diamonds down the drain
You packed the craked porcelain
Chain, unchain, the dirt is your domain
Don't [bad word] with my brain
Throw your diamonds down the drain
You packed the craked porcelain
Chain, unchain, the dirt is your domain
Don't [bad word] with my brain

All wars start in rooms where big men meet
But are always fought and lost or won on the street
No one's never gonna start a revolution from bed
Put your theories to practise and you'll wind up dead
You've got the freedom to choose what you wanna see
But the bottom in you is the bottom in me
The rock might be thrown from many different heights
But always falls to the same floor through dim red lights

Throw your diamonds down the drain
You packed the cracked porcelain
Chain, unchain, the dirt is your domain
Don't [bad word] with my brain
Throw your diamonds down the drain
You packed the craked porcelain
Chain, unchain, the dirt is your domain
Don't [bad word] with my brain

Throw your demons down the well
Where once the brightest angel fell
Make your wishes, put your spell
But don't [bad word] with my [bad word]
