In this sinless city, we wear calluses on our hands
From empty vain hand-shaking, we see the guilt has rise again
And all will fall with or without our good will
So we fool them all, who pray for those who never will
Never been much for pity
Never been much for wishing them well
But I cant help but sever the ties they tied so tight, so well
And on one side theyre holding on to what we were
And here we are holding the hands that we severed
And we both let go
And we both let go
The fire burns like cancer, the scarring lasts forever
We all play tricks on fools that see us as their sinless answer
The fire burns like cancer, the scarring lasts forever
We all play tricks on fools that see us as their sinless answer
The fire burns like cancer, the scarring lasts forever
We all play tricks on fools that see us as their sinless answer
And over and over again
And over and over again
And over and over
And over and over, and over
Dont say this isnt what youre used to
I know followers like you
Ive let down followers like you
Dont say this isnt what youre used to
I know followers like you
Ive let down followers like you
The fire burns like cancer, the scarring lasts forever
We all play tricks on fools that see us as their sinless answer
The fire burns like cancer, the scarring lasts forever
We all play tricks on fools that see us as their only answer
