Foundation Lyrics

And here they go again

New suit and tie

Inch by inch they take me away

I'm not the old man they want me to be

But I can't turn back now

It's just the way it is

If it was up to me I wouldn't be in this mess

As I lose my face and voice

Gonna be a shame when you need someone to stress

No I can't run away

Too late, gotta stay

Let's say we're even

As they break me down to dust

Then I can only trust

That you're leaving

I'm not myself

At least I know

I was a man of many shows

They took my ears

They took my nose

They took my shoes

And burned my clothes

But I know it's not the end

And the end is yet to come

But I can't turn back now

It's just the way it is

If it was up to me I wouldn't be in this mess

As I lose my face and voice

Gonna be a shame when you need someone to stress

No I can't run away

Too late, gotta stay

If we say we're even

As they break me down to dust

Will it be love or lust

That gets you leaving?

No I can't run away

Too late, gotta stay

If we stay, we're even

As they break me down to dust

Will it be love or lust

That gets you leaving?
