We're far beyond redemption, and that's why I'm still screaming
Those saccharine lies that taste so sweet,
In the end they only rot your teeth
We're still disillusioned, and that's why I'm still screaming
One of us is taken away almost every day
Everything that I've believed just proves that I'm easily deceived
I'm trying to understand that
I'm tearing out last few pages of every book I own,
Cause some things I don't want to know
This is a joke on the grandest scale,
And that that's why I'm still screaming
Paid for by pawns who sense something wrong but still carry on
This story is fucked, and that's why I'm still screaming
There's no denouement, no happy ending, just slow steady decline
Everything that I've believed just proves I'm easily deceived
I'm trying to understand that I'm tearing out last few pages of every book I own,
Cause some things I don't want to know
Heaven please lay waste to this cause no good will ever come of it
I am a modern day Nero, so hand me a fiddle and a bow,
Cause dancing on ashes and graves is the only joy I know
We're dancing on ashes and graves
