Words of a blinded fool
dressed up in gold,
it's nothing new,
filtered down into a smaller pill
that's easy to swallow.
But will it stay
when his victims learn more words to say,
'Spit it out I will not follow?'
This built-up tolerance
is giving way.
It could happen any second now,
just one question's all that it takes-
your shelf begins to break.
How could someone put a price on truth?
Do you really think there's one path home?
No amount of faith will comfort you
when they turn off the lights
and you're left all alone.
Just watching the colors change
while every day turns out the same,
just another reminder no one's in control,
and were you ever?
Words of a dying man,
'You gotta get out while you still can,
experience is wasted on the old.'
This built-up tolerance
is giving way.
It could happen any second now,
just one question's all that it takes-
your shelf begins to break.
How could someone put a price on truth?
Do you really think there's one path home?
No amount of faith will comfort you
when they turn off the lights
and you're left all alone,
alone, alone....
