it starts with one...
and multiplies 'til you can taste the sun
and burnt by the sky you try to take it from
but if it falls there's no place to run
crumbling down
it's so unreal
they're dealing you in to determine your end
and sending you back again to places you've been
and bending your will 'til it breaks you within
and still they fill their eyes
with the twilight through the skylight
and the highlights on a frame of steel
see the brightness of your likeness as i write this
on a pad with the way i feel
head is screaming
am i dreaming?
as it's seeming that you played your part
like you're heartless, take apart this, in the darkness, but i know that
i've tried so hard
and got so far
but in the end, it doesn't even matter
i had to fall
to lose it all
but in the end, it doesn't even matter
i know what's down the line
and what's there is not what ought to be
held back by the battles they fought for me
callin' me to be part of their property
and now i see that i get no chance
i get no break
fakes and snakes quickly lead to mistakes
and as the tightrope within slowly starts to thin
i can only hope that they close their eyes
to the twilight through the skylight
and the highlights on a frame of steel
see the brightness of your likeness as i write this
on a pad to the way i feel
head is screaming
am i dreaming?
as it's seeming that you played your part
like you're heartless, take apart this, in the darkness, but i know
i've tried so hard
and got so far
but in the end, it doesn't even matter
i had to fall
to lose it all
but in the end, it doesn't even matter
