Come on and break down and show us who you are
Memorable first impressions only get you far
When you stay true, from beginning to end
Flexing all your morals, your environment will bend back
As you bend crooked
Come on and break down, fake persona's from your art
I used to hang on every verse when my days would get hard
Flash forward, to present day and time,
A fraud, a hoax, a method actor reading scripted lines back
Why'd you take that path?
There's no way back
We are the spark
That once would ignite a pilot light, burning deep in your heart
The start of making yourself out to be bigger than you really are
Conscience is calling,
C-Come and shut it up.
Yeah, I know life gets rough sometimes
Big dollars take the pressure off of hard times
But gluttony's a sin, and hunger will not let you win
If you don't get a grip, use some self will to control it
Hold it, when it--
[Hayley Williams]
"Whoa, whoa, guys, um. is it cool if I get in on this here?"
(Hell yeah!)
(Dude, go for it!)
[Hayley Williams]
Alright listen
Oh, I see you ready, set, go
With unqualified pride, orders of your disguise explode
Watch us double up on those who try to intimidate unaware eyes
Fabrications of a buster living within a lie
If you come back you'll have to (get, get,) get, (get, get)
Through all of us
We are the spark
That once would ignite a pilot light, burning deep in your heart
The start of making yourself out to be bigger than you really are
You instilled, you helped to build
A belief within me that I carry to this day
You passed the torch, and cared no more
What a shame, who's to blame,
When the mighty fall from grace?
Go settle up, with the kids fed up
This time we want, for you to man on up
Right, and account for all your crimes
Go settle up, with the kids fed up
This time we want, for you to man on up
Right Now, I want you to say it
I wanna know why you abandoned this and now hate it, just why?
But you don't know why.
Such an elusive, guileful, meaningless sham.
Come on and break down
Come on and break down
Come on and break down
Come on and break down
Come on, break down (Who, who's to blame?)
Break down (Tell me who, who's to blame?)
Break down
Who's to blame, take the shame,
When the mighty fall from grace
