Monuments |
| With nothing to live for |
| We aim for a life |
| Given the plot to the |
| Stories we write |
| United in fate and |
| This anthem we sing |
| No sheep to a shepherd |
| We’re pawns to a king |
| We claim to be something more |
| A masterpiece, an individual |
| Yet we fail miserably |
| Stuck in a cage called life |
| We sit, we wait for more |
| And sing the anthem of our own demise |
| (Our own demise) |
| Now take the crown |
| Now take the crown |
| This is our anthem |
| For the dreams we choose to live |
| This is our anthem |
| For a life, for a lifetime |
| Given the power to mend |
| Our lives to our heart’s content |
| If life’s a lesson |
| We fail to grasp |
| That our lives are |
| Monuments built to last |
| Always blaming someone else |
| For the flaw in the plan |
| Our own mistakes |
| Create or take your chance |
| Preserve your dignity |
| If you don’t want your life |
| To be a constant misery |
| (Misery) |
| Now take the crown |
| Now take the crown |
| This is our anthem |
| For the dreams we choose to live |
| This is our anthem |
| For a life, for a lifetime |
| With nothing to live for |
| We aim for a life |
| Given the plot to the |
| Stories we write |
| United in fate and |
| This anthem we sing |
| No sheep to a shepherd |
| We’re pawns to a king |
