Pawns Lyrics

How could you see this coming

You don't even know

What's on its way to

Rip out your throat

You are the culprit of your own demise

You couldn't take the opportunity to rise

And if you try to scream, you will make it worse

Nothing you can do to free you from this curse

And that's why we pray for ourselves in our sleep

You say that I have kept you from breathing

So comes to pass the act of your failing

You got no chance to throw me off track

I'll take everything you ever had

They say your time ran out long ago

But I'm still here and they want to know

Not another shell crushed by titan heel

Not another mistake

Can't slow me down I'm burning from the inside

Ever since it's long been amplified

So spill the words from your mouth like plague, I'll be the anodyne

I see those knees getting weaker by the second

Count your blessings before you wreck, then

The pain we make can right our minds

Brushstrokes are right

They write our minds

Fiendish and exploitative

Ringing through all your motives

Never bought a word you said

Never let you in my head

Shady and overrated

Lost in the lies you stated

Never want the cloud you spread

Always thought I was better off dead

Condemn the fact that we always disagree

To take things as they seem to be

Things can seem unreal to you and me

Have you embraced the nothing

And clutched it to your breast?

You paint an unanointed lamb for slaughter

You got no chance to throw me off track

I'll take everything you ever had

They say your time ran out long ago

But I'm still here now, they want to know

But I'm still here now, they want to know
