| I hear this broken sound of what’s gone by
|
| I see a tear of lead behind your eye
|
| It’s happening again, I’ve lost this place I didn’t occupy
|
| Our broken fairy tale so hard to hide
|
| I hear it closer now, whisper through the night
|
| I hear it through the dark, whispering a lie
|
| It’s happening again, and you keep telling me you know I tried
|
| But deep inside you know it’s all a lie
|
| Behind this cold and empty stare
|
| I know I was never there
|
| Now I know it’s all a lie
|
| Chose a poison, choose a life
|
| Now I know just what I sold
|
| I sold all the things I love for a place in this House of Control
|
| I’ve tried and tried but cannot hide from my dying drive
|
| I’ve seen the signs across the sky, I came to say goodbye
|
| I thought I could control the end
|
| Thought I would change, but now I can’t pretend
|
| I know how this will end, now I see why
|
| Behind these red and bloodshot eyes
|
| I know I’ll stay this way until I die, because
|
| Now I know it’s all a lie
|
| Choose a poison, choose a life
|
| Now I know just what I sold
|
| I sold all the things I love for a place in this empty House of Control
|
| There was a time before this time
|
| When I told myself
|
| There was a time before this time when I told myself
|
| It was worth the sacrifice
|
| To sacrifice all I loved for
|
| What I was gonna love
|
| There was a time before this time
|
| In my, my, my, my cold black soul
|
| I knew what I was living for
|
| But now, but now I’m not so sure
|
| Damn you life, look what you stole
|
| All this time I’ve played this role
|
| Look deep inside this cold black soul
|
| Where all you’ll find’s a foul dead hole
|
| Behind the taste of what I said
|
| Behind the silence in my head
|
| Behind this cold and empty bed
|
| Where thoughts of you are all found dead
|
| Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
|
| Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
|
| Now I know it’s all a lie
|
| Choose a poison, choose a life
|
| Now I know just what I sold
|
| I sold all the things I love
|
| Oh yeah
|
| Now I know it’s all a lie
|
| Choose a poison, choose a life
|
| Now I know just what I sold
|
| I sold all the things I love
|
| Now I know it’s all a lie
|
| Choose a poison, choose a life
|
| I sold all the things I love for a place in this House of Control
|
| For a place in this empty House of Control
|
| Now I know it’s all a lie
|
| Choose a poison, choose a life
|
| Now I know just what I sold
|
| I sold all the things I love for a place in this empty House of Control |
