Remember when you said pay up, pay up? pay up, pay up? Well, look who's paying now How does it feel to be no longer so treasured? After all, you're the one who severed the ties This is not the way, we chose the wrong direction And can no longer speak, don't tear away This is not the way, don't talk if you're listening Don't talk if you're listening Wake up, wake up, but don't choke Don't choke on your words for too long Greed cannot hide behind a lens (Your ego's circling the drain) In this world of colour graded scenery You are the one that molds your own reality Creating hearts and painting them black Dirty hands, take it back (Your ego's circling the drain) Why can't you still the lightning Burning a hole through you and me? We are not a part of your kingdom You'll always burn the victim Through you and me Wake up, wake up, but don't choke Don't choke on your words for too long Greed cannot hide behind a lens Your ego's circling the drain Didn't you now we all came down tonight And we're taking polaroid's? Didn't you now we all came down tonight
