v1: this time i've been brought to my knees
been over and under, and in between
but there are no beacons, no signal flags
you've finally drifted off my map
these days our lives burying time
this broken pact of ours, with blood i signed
confound my animosity, the man who set me free
rotting in a cell
c: so now i'm down, down down,
sinking right on through the ground
whoa i'm falling down, down, down,
sinking right on through the ground
whoa i'm falling
v2: i stood as you sailed away
my percentages decrease day after day
solutions a consolation prize
i'd rather have been disqualified
these years we spend our time ignoring the lies
life's just a contest and you sabotaged my entry
confound my animosity, my blushing bride to be
abandoned at her altar
c
b: now you see the face of the man who can't understand
all those times when i knew not to look so far ahead
this time built your tower of sand, closed the gate on this man
prompter stalls, with your back on the wall now you're looking at me saying
whoa, no no, you never chose me
whoa, no no, you never chose me
