You wanted the world
You wanted the world to burn
Cleanse our lives and start again
And I never believed it
These castle walls are shattering
The Earth is open wide
Swallowing all that I’ve toiled for
My blood and sweat to make this life less foreign
To stop our might from falling
So ask me
Why would I stoke the fire brighter?
To see through my consequences lost
I failed to let us start again
What have I done?
Become the catalyst to being as one and all
None of us are innocent
But what makes all this worth it once you’ve folded?
This isn’t how the game ends
How did you dream of it?
No value for life
How has it come to this?
Dismantle our crown
And I failed to let you fall and change the world
To let your vision die
You wanted the world to burn
Cleanse our lives and start again
And I never believed in you
Why would I stoke the fire brighter?
To see through my consequences lost
I failed to let us start again
What have I done?
Become the catalyst to being as one
