lyrics

just as you rejoice they're sounding the alarm
a cry wolf prophecy that's got you up in arms
and you know by now the gavel falls a little farther from the tree
and you've come to find that agony can take its toll silently

few will ever know just how we begin
in a burned down house
a gallery depicting every sin
it's the background noise calamity
the buzzing bees inside your head
counteracting your integrity with every word you've ever said

I’m hanging around like this is the end of time
and I know that this is all you will find

you've got your thrown and crown
you've got your head held high
higher than the sky inside your mind
to wish life away is not a sin
where we begin is where we end

I’ve been hanging around like this is the end of time
and I know that this is all you will find
