Fame Over Demise Lyrics - Singles - Woe Is Me

The devil and god are knocking at my door 

I thought I had your word 

That a father dies before his son 

Now the reaper and his men are marching your way 

Straight to hell 

All that you taught me to be 

Was a moper, a dreamer that only refused to dream 

Oh save it please 

My voice is peaking through your speakers 

And I'm speaking just to show you the way 

How could you 

Shelter me out 

I'm much older now 

You're a chemical fiend 

You shatter like a beaker 

When I only want to show you the way 

The architect, the creator 

I'll build my way out of your demise 

These dreams are my castles, 

Not the walls you built up around me 

Oh when I look at my watch and I know 

Time is gold 

It can't be pawned and it can't be sold 

Now you're running out of time, 

Better relapse and rewind 

Crucify your addiction so you can cross this line 

Nothing can save you from the fate that awaits you 

Disregard the signals 

Disregard the smoke 

Father don't believe them 

Just let them fucking choke 

Now we lay you down to sleep 

I pray his hands, your soul to reap 

And if I die before you wake 

Then I've lost a bet, and for his sake, 

When all your cards are on the table 

Pray the floor is still and stable and dance your life away 

Your true colors are starting to get loud 

(so loud that it hurts my ears) 

Have fun praying to your gray god now 

Yeah, this war don't determine who is right 

This war just determines who's left standing tonight 

Stop handing me lights 

I can see what you are in the dark just fine 

I'm not blind, I'm bending the blinds 

Peaking through to get a glimpse of your anguishing life 

You're hiding like a vampire, here comes the strife 

This won't hurt me cause I get a thrill from the bite 

So place your bets 

Place your bets 

Cause through my eyes you'll reap what you sew
