[Verse 1]

You stand up pridefully in front of thousands

Screaming words of justice and truth

You wear a mask of this city's hero

You are the pretender

You fake, you fake, but fortunate

You wear a mask of this city's hero

You fake, you fake, but fortunate

You are the pretender

[Chorus 1]

Your weak speech lines your gums with gold teeth

Yet you don't believe in a word that you say

You're speaking shackles to life

Self-righteousness is your demise

[Verse 2]

You coward

Draw a line in the sand

You bastard

Look at what you have become

Your breath, it reeks of perversion

Your tongue is just like a whore

Full of vulgarity, full of the disease

[Chorus 2]

Where is the life in the life you live?

You are the poor millionaire

Where is the life in the life you live?

A lifeless empire, a lifeless heir

[Post-Chorus]

Your crown is like a lion's mouth devouring you from the inside out

Turn away before there's nothing left

It's life or death

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]

Tyrant

Ring the bells of repentance

Awakening from your deathbed

Tyrant

Ring the bells of repentance

Awaken from your deathbed

Oh, tyrant (Oh, tyrant)

[Verse 3]

You stand up pridefully in front of thousands

Screaming words of justice and truth

You wear a mask of this city's hero

You are the pretender

[Outro]

Coward, coward

Where is the life in the life you live?

Where is the life in the life you live?

Life you live (Live, live, live)
