Reality is not what it seems
A slave for nothing
Just to feed the machine
Just like the others
Our dreams are dead
Our lives wasted
On stage for the world to watch
Our lives taken
On stage for the world to
They gave us loyalty
Then tried to steal everything
That set me free
Well, we have something
That you can't buy
A blind heist seen by a thousand eyes
I gave you everything I had in me
I gave up everything I worked for
I gave you everything that I could be
But you
You've taken my hope
You've stolen my life
You've broken the skin
And you've twisted the knife
I feel naked and used
I feel like I can't breathe
I feel like you have taken
Everything from me
Keep your ground
We'll be the ones
To tear your pedestal down
Fuck what you think
You've buried yourself too deep
A guilty thief caged, begging for pity
When the spotlight comes
Who will you turn to now?
The verdict is made
And I won't be found
When your apologies fade
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
When all the years are gone
Who's left to trust?
You'll never know who we are
Remember this song
When we've gotten so far
Wo-o-o-oh, yeah
Oh-o-o
I feel the walls are closing in
I feel the oxygen depleting
I gave you something I can't get back
But you've taken my hope
You've stolen my life
You've broken the skin
And you've twisted the knife
I feel naked and used
I feel like I can't breathe
I feel like you have taken
Everything from me
They gave us loyalty
Then tried to steal everything
That set me free
Well, we have something
That you can't buy
A blind heist
We're not broken
This hasn't begun to start
We're not broken
This hasn't begun to start
