You don't know me, in fact you know nothing at all
You don't even hear me when I call
I am too late, too far, I fall
You don't even answer when I call
I been to the depths of hell, it was a hot draught
There was nothing there for me so I walked out
The devil said I couldn't leave, but he talked doubt
So here I am on the surface, what now?
Shot down, I'm a target for the hatred
A martyr in the basement. I'm looking at myself
The mirror is unforgiving, it's no wonder living
Is a struggle in this prison. I'm stuck inside my cells
I don't wanna wear this mask anymore
I'm too complacent with this face, I want it cast to the floor
So I can watch it shatter with a crash. I'm bored
With these distractions, all I ask is more
I am shackled to a want and need for change
That leaves this perfectionist constantly in pain
So everything I do, to me, is obviously strained
Poetic justice served. Fallen be the name
You don't know me in fact you know nothing at all
You don't even hear me when I call
I am too late, too far, I fall
You don't even answer when I call
It would seem the universe is playing jokes again
A wicked back and forth where no one is supposed to win
I'm just another sucker focused on the moments when
I feel like I could fly until the world just goes and mozies in
What the hell is this, why am I the fella with
A dream that's unachievable and nowhere else to build this ship
A rocket into space
It's like with every step ahead I get, I'm falling on my face
Take a step, turn around, take another step, repeat
The circles that I'm turning here are sure to get me off my feet
Right? I mean. There has got to be
A way to make some progress if you just believe in what you dream
Right? Tell me that its possible
I know it isn't probable, or even very logical
But see I'm in a spot where all this dreaming's only haunting
While I'm speaking on it honestly, I fear that I am falling, oh
You don't know me in fact you know nothing at all
You don't even hear me when I call
I am too late, too far, I fall
You don't even answer when I call
I lay here
Belly up on the ground
Staring up at the sound
Everyone gather round
There's a pool now
Red filling up the cool ground
And with every move, down
My spine is a cruel pound
Was it my fault?
Did the sky fall?
Broken wings and stolen things
I think it's time to shoulder this
You don't know me in fact you know nothing at all
You don't even hear me when I call
I am too late, too far, I fall
You don't even answer when I call
