[Verse 1: Andrew Wells, Andrew Wells & Matthew Dommer]
Lights out, everybody is a culprit and no one leaves ungarnered
I think that everything that ever was
Was built on the backs of the martyrs
Now hell's just under the surface, our constant beveling focus
[Pre-Chorus: Matthew Dommer]
I can't stand when you won't look me in the eye
I hate how you never cared
And nothing ever mattered 'til I gave up
[Chorus: Andrew Wells]
On and on and on, it takes its toll on me
I can't imagine what it's like to never feel ashamed
[Post-Chorus: Matthew Dommer]
My life is a burden, your dreams are a sham
Your purpose is worthless as the culture demands
[Verse 2: Andrew Wells, Matthew Dommer]
You think you're strong enough to comprehend this weight
Well, I think you're abysmal, I think you're a fake
I won't forget how you made me suffer
Now all my worst fears, they seem irrelevant now
This mortal shell is just a means to reason
[Chorus: Andrew Wells]
On and on and on, it takes its toll on me
I can't imagine what it's like to never feel ashamed
But if the fragment remains of my immortal estate
Don't wake me up, don't let me break the cycle
[Post-Chorus: Matthew Dommer]
My life is a burden, your dreams are a sham
Your purpose is worthless as the culture
[Spoken Word: Andrew Wells]
Do you ever wander aimlessly through life?
Meandering through the pointlessness of existence?
Feeling like the weight of the world
Could crush you at any moment?
And like nothing you ever do even matters?
[Outro: Andrew Wells, Matthew Dommer, Both]
A fistful of hornets, all the time I sit alone
Waiting for you here
As if there's nothing else I can do
Who is the greater fool?
