I heard all your tragic stories
Tales of neglect and abuse
Life’s unfair, I get it
But you’ve chosen to live in a world
Where it’s use or be used
You seemed so fragile and young at first
Now you’ve hardened to stone
Driven by rage and bloodthirst
Knocking out teeth and breaking bone
Do you feel destined to be a king, in this dark world you roam?
Do you think life will be safe if you seize the throne?
I loved the man you used to be
I fear the man you have become
You use my words against me
Do you not remember who walked out first?
Do you think you would’ve done different
if our roles had been reversed?
Maybe the sad truth is
Neither of us knows what real love is
Maybe the sad truth is
It would all boil down to this
We both should’ve known better
Than to play with fire
We both should’ve known better
Love is more than just desire
You seemed so soft and tender
Time flies when you live hard and fast
Now it’s hard to remember
How long can you last?
In this world you’ve chosen
What happens when your allies decides you’re an outcast?
Do you really want to be a king
in this dark world you roam?
Do you think it will last forever
if you seize the throne?
I loved the man you used to be
I fear the man you have become
Now boundaries and lines gets blurred
Sound advice just sounds absurd
Fast money, trick your brain
Sleepless for days, then go insane
It’s strange, what we’ll defend
Full speed, towards an early grave
Broken children turned broken adults, all the way to the bitter end
Does it matter, if I say you could still transcend?
Does it matter, if I still have faith..?
I don’t like that look in your eyes
Are you still somewhere in there, or is it already too late..?
All your gory stories, gives me chills down my spine
And how you’re proud to be this cruel, like it’s sublime
The brutal, merciless world where you choose to roam
Do you think you’ll live long on the throne?
I loved the man you used to be..
I fear the man you have become
I fear the man you have become..
