[Verse 1]

Please allow me to introduce myself

I'm the lie you use

When surrounded by snakes and talking sharks

Be mindful the words you choose

Their eyes reflecting a purpose

Calling, "Welcome to the feast"

Will you follow their actions, and play game?

And as they step, will you repeat their formalities?

[Pre-Chorus]

Thieves of our time

Watch as they rape your integrity, march as the beat suggests

[Chorus]

Time ticks forward towards the bomb

Undoing all that I once loved

Come take your piece of me, blood or bone

No matter, I'll still be here when you're

[Verse 2]

Done, crossed, a story, you were always a maybe

Here, there are no absolutes

Oh, used and abused, now left for show

They laugh from their perch to let you know

(There's no letting go)

[Pre-Chorus]

Thieves of our time

Watch as they rape your integrity, march as the beat suggests

[Chorus]

Time ticks forward towards the bomb

Undoing all that I once loved

Come take your piece of me, blood or bone

No matter, I'll still be here when you're

Done...

Be here when you're...

Done...

Be here when you're...

[Post-Chorus]

This is my audience

Forever one, together burning stars

Cut from the same disease

Ever longing what and who we are

[Bridge]

This is the story of a boy

Who lost his way and found the fire, fire!

Awestruck, his courage lost

Damaged goods, a trust now long retired

[Post-Chorus]

This is my audience

Forever one, together burning stars

Cut from the same disease

Ever longing what and who we are

[Bridge]

Take all matters into your own hands

And I, and I, I

Let them play with the coward you can't command

And I, I, I...

Now you’re just a memory

Of humanity

(The audience

I will show

All of myself...)

[Outro]

This is my audience

Forever one, together burning stars

Cut from the same disease

Ever longing what and who we are

This is my audience

Forever one, together burning stars

Cut from the same disease

Ever longing what and who we are
