You built your tower tall
But every tower bound to fall
But if you knew it and it ruined
And you wouldn't build at all
Everybody knew before you walk you gotta crawl
And you get to know yourself
With your back against the wall
She was born from the pages of a drama
The third daughter of loveless father
Foundations on relations improper
And if you only see in shades of gray
There will always be a price to pay
Who got time to dream when ya can't think?
It hurts less with every drop of blood in the sink
All the girls, are all so pretty in pink
If you only see in shades of gray
There will always be a price to pay
When you cave
To collapse, to fall into your fate
To bide your time in darkness
When you cave
You collapse, waiting to be saved
To be free, to be free, to be free
Warmed up like a morning migraine
Like a deadbeat friend it's an old pain
When it hits it ain't always in a bad way
If you only see in shades of gray
There will always be a price to pay
When you cave
To collapse, to fall into your fate
To bide your time in darkness
When you cave
You collapse, waiting to be saved
To be free, to be free, to be free
Good girl from a broken home
These days the clichés are too real
On the day that her granmomma overdosed
She wear a fresh pair of red high heels
She didn't die but she slipped into comatose
Her granddaughter didn't know how to deal
She losing faith in herself and the system
Feeling like a victim that's what kills
First came the sentence to earth
We mean the genesis birth
Sin is sinister, so live with the curse now
She came to make change
Not dividends
Everything's changed
So she only makes differences
If you ain't chasin' truth
You living the lie
And if you try to hold the infinite
Then kiss it goodbye
I can't begin to describe
But then again I can try
I think back again
Back when I was ten I could fly
Yo you built your tower tall
But every tower bound to fall
But if you knew it and it ruined
And you wouldn't built at all
Everybody know before you walk
You gotta crawl
And you get to know yourself
With your back against the wall
When you cave
To collapse, to fall into your fate
To bide your time in darkness
When you cave, you've collapsed
Waiting to be saved
To be free, to be free, to be free
