What I’ve Become
[Verse 1]
Blank stares of broken men
So withered from the poisons
They can't remember when
There were once honest reasons
It's all a lie
It died a hundred thousand miles ago
[Refrain]
Pretending I'm still here
[Chorus]
Justify
What I've become
Sanctify
What I've become
[Verse 2]
Amazing disgrace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
Better lost if this is found
Best blinded, never to see
The race to save face
Nothing now is what we meant it to be
[Refrain]
Pretending I'm still here
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
It's a system now
Intertwined
Take your place in the line to be ground by the gears of the masterpiece
Betrayal
[Chorus]
Justify
What I've become
Sanctify
What I've become
[Bridge]
Suffered consequence
It's been so long since
Any piece of this
Made any kind of sense
You anoint the king
I'll burn everything
Down to ashes
You giveth, I taketh away
You giveth, I taketh away
[Outro]
It's a system now
Intertwined
Take your place in the line
To be ground
By the gears of the masterpiece
Betrayal
Blank stares of broken men
So withered from the poisons
They can't remember when
There were once honest reasons
It's all a lie
It died a hundred thousand miles ago
[Refrain]
Pretending I'm still here
[Chorus]
Justify
What I've become
Sanctify
What I've become
[Verse 2]
Amazing disgrace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
Better lost if this is found
Best blinded, never to see
The race to save face
Nothing now is what we meant it to be
[Refrain]
Pretending I'm still here
[Guitar Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
It's a system now
Intertwined
Take your place in the line to be ground by the gears of the masterpiece
Betrayal
[Chorus]
Justify
What I've become
Sanctify
What I've become
[Bridge]
Suffered consequence
It's been so long since
Any piece of this
Made any kind of sense
You anoint the king
I'll burn everything
Down to ashes
You giveth, I taketh away
You giveth, I taketh away
[Outro]
It's a system now
Intertwined
Take your place in the line
To be ground
By the gears of the masterpiece
Betrayal
