The Audience

Please allow me to introduce myself I'm the lie you use When surrounded by snakes and talking sharks Be mindful the words you choose Their eyes reflecting a purpose, calling Welcome to the feast Will you follow their actions, and play game? And as they step, will you repeat? Their formalities Thieves of our time Watch as they rape your integrity March as the beat suggests... Time ticks forward Towards the bomb Of undoing all that I once loved Come take your piece of me Blood or Bone... No matter I'll still be here when you're... Done, crossed, a story... you were always a maybe Here there are no absolutes Oh, used and abused, now left for show They laugh from their perch to let you know Thieves of our time Watch as they rape your integrity March as the beat suggests... Time ticks forward Towards the bomb Of undoing all that I once loved Come take your piece of me Blood or Bone... No matter I'll still be here when you're... This is my audience, forever one, together burning stars Cut from the same disease, ever longing what and who we are This is the story of a boy who lost his way and found the fire Awestruck, his courage lost, damaged goods, a trust now long retired This is my audience, forever one, together burning stars Cut from the same disease, ever longing what and who we are Take all matters into your own hands Let them play with the coward you can't command Now you’re just a memory of humanity The audience This is my audience, forever one, together burning stars Cut from the same disease, ever longing what and who we are (x2)
