I've got everything I'd ever need

A home, loving family food and the sea

Everything else is unwanted lust

I want it all but all is never enough

To snuff out the fact

That I'm overzealous of the notion of being promoted

Contrary to wanting to be free

Caged without a fence

Barbed wire lines the walls of my head

They'll all snigger and smirk like you're a dying dog in the dirt

When they've been dead inside for twice as long

Meaningless lives giving meaning by being less mean

I mean is that justification for everything?

The holier than thou god complex again

(We'll build you up to be the god you think you are)

Piece by piece

We'll build you up to be the god that you think you are

Piece by piece

Wait awhile for that asshole smile

It's all in your head kid

That mirror won't kick your head in

But I will

No charges laid

Just your head to the bricks

One hit to the pavement

Now I'm the hypocrite

'Cause I tried to make a truce

Doubted my will from the get-go

Now look what I've gotta do to you

Didn't they teach you about the detrimental effects of bullying

Last year while you still in school, huh?

Dropped out? Dropped on your head at birth?

Same thing in the end, you're a tool

Piece by piece (piece by piece)

Piece by piece

We'll build you up to be the god that you think you are

Piece by piece

We'll build you up to be the god that you think you are

Piece by piece

Wait awhile for that asshole smile

Now I'm the hypocrite

'Cause I tried to make a truce

Doubted my will from the get go

Now look what I've gotta do to you

We're here to escape

Reality is here to stay

Snake state of mind

Anger and clarity intertwined
