[ Featuring the Graveyard Shift ]
How the hell did we make it this far
On the cusp of a dream that was doomed from the start
Burnin' out in old familiar ways
Still have habits to hide yet we roll on unphased
Been called to the stage too many times now to count
By a similar man who refused to bow out
I've been stoned, but I will never be bought
By a king on a throne who flies over the top
You count the cracks in the concrete below
Wait to watch the display when this whole place erodes
You sleep with steel, never thought it would rust
Now you sift through the scars and misplace damaged trust
The barriers rise like the sun in the east
You look up your heart, do away with the key
A mind on fire in a room full of thoughts
Wrapped up cold in your world, built it over the top
Now your head hangs low, knee deep in absolute truths
Whirlwinds bail from your brain as you search for some proof
How many days will you continue this trend
Throw your soul to the fire as a means to an end
The traits you once valued now seem calloused and worn
But you claim to the world that you've conquered this storm
On and on
The wheels roll over, they will never be stopped
Justified by a world that's grown over the top
