All that you taught me to be 
Was a moper, a dreamer that only refused to dream
Oh save it please 
My voice is peaking through your speakers 
And I’m speaking just to show you the way
How could you 
Shelter me out
I’m much older now 
You’re a chemical fiend 
You shatter like a beaker 
When I only want to show you the way

The architect, the creator 
I’ll build my way out of your demise 
These dreams are my castles,
Not the walls you built up around me

Oh when I look at my watch and I know 
Time is gold 
It can’t be pawned and it can’t be sold 
Now [bad word] out of time, 
Better relapse and rewind  [bad word] your addiction so you can cross this line
Nothing can save you from the fate that awaits you

Disregard the signals 
Disregard the smoke 
Father don’t believe them 
Just let them [bad word] choke

Now we lay you down to sleep 
I pray his hands, your soul to reap 
And if I die before you wake 
Then I’ve lost a bet, and for [bad word] sake, 
When all your cards are on the table
Pray the floor is still and stable and dance your life away

Your [bad word] colors are starting to get loud 
(so loud that it hurts my ears)
Have fun praying to your gray god now
Yeah, this war don’t determine who’s right 
This war just determines who’s left standing tonight 
Stop handing me lights 
I can see what you are in the dark just fine 
I’m not blind, I’m bending the blinds 
Peaking through to get a glimpse of your anguishing life 
You’re hiding like a vampire, [bad word] the strife 
This won’t hurt me cause I get a thrill from the bite

So place your bets
Place your bets
Cause through my eyes you’ll reap what you sew
