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

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 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]
