[Verse 1]
You've heard this all before, I’m sat still staring at paper
There's things behind the page for later
Oh, I've grown tired, drinkin’ senselessly and wild
I've been yearning for surprise
And now they've caught me in this chamber
Ooh, there's new profanity displayed as they pull on the lever
So they made our homes filled with deceivers
Oh, it's gone too long, the machine was built too strong
Now it seeps through my core, and keeps me held to inky craters
Make me feel alive

[Pre-Chorus]
Lies, lies, it was pain on the walls
The size of this beating heart takes us all back down again
I reopened memories
You stood and took the bow, are you proud of me now?

[Chorus]
We want you, we want you here to work for us right now (Ooh, right now)
I worked hard to walk away from here, are you proud of me now?
We need you, we need to show you've not moved on right now (Ooh, right now)
I sank deep, you stuck me on repeat, are you proud of me now?

[Post-Chorus]
Want you here, need you here
Need to show you've got more work right now
Work, work right now
They want me here, they need me here
They have to show me I've got work right now
[Verse 2]
Deceived by carnal horns, ripping organs out by the cleavers
Too soon to say I’m a believer
Oh, how I tried to get lost when worlds collided
Find my own way once deciding to get off the ground, but you dragged me down
How’s my family? Where's my sanity?
Better never knowing when the cavernous reality settles in
I won’t win, can't begin to tell you everything's a lie, and I'm a victim of insanity
Leaving me to rot, to absorb what soon is lost
Hoping unity brings me community
Hoping on a pipedream, never to redeem when they stop making me feel alive
We want you, we want you here to work for us right now
We need you, we need to show you’ve not moved on right now
We want you, we want you here to work for us right now
We need you, we need you, we need you
You've not moved on

[Pre-Chorus]
Lies, lies, it was pain on the walls (Moved on, moved on, on right now)
The size of this beating heart takes us all back down again (Moved on, moved on, on right now)
I reopened memories (Moved on, moved on, on right now)
You stood and took the bow, are you proud of me now?

[Chorus]
We want you, we want you here to work for us right now
I worked hard to walk away from here, are you proud of me now?
We need you, we need to show you've not moved on right now
I sank deep, you stuck me on repeat, are you proud of me now?
[Verse 3]
We want you, we want you here to work for us right now
I played nicely for the longest time, are you proud of me now?
We need you, we need to show you've not moved on right now
The dark secrets have deprived me of light, and I'll find it down below
We want you here, need you here
Need to show you've got more work right now
Work, work right now
They want me here, they need me here
They have to show me I've got work right now
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I paid the toll for staying dormant by the side of the curb again
Come and flow with me
Close your eyes and you will see he brought us all to die again, are you proud of me now?

[Outro]
You stood and took the bow, are you proud of me now?
