My friends my friends. Am I begging for your audience?
You ought to know everything is not what it seems.
We put too much faith into each other.
Our dreams make the world a stage.
Whatever happened to changing things.
Pseudo Heroes of a new generation.
Visionaries of emancipation, but so framed to the core.
How far would you go to be noticed. (Yeah! Yeah!)
Were drawn together by the disguise.
These words will get through one way or another.
You can't keep me closed off forever.
Wax people shining in the sunlight.
Like dominoes, we always fall.
Look at me in the screen, tumbling round and round.
My body will break, just give me some time.
I've made a name for myself, right?
I had never thought about thinking, I know, it's not alright.
What do i have to show after all these years.
Nothing you couldn't buy.
You gave me everything and I sold it all away.
You have me everything and I sold it all away.
Hero of a new generation, visionary of emancipation.
I can't believe, what's happened to me,
What everyone sees, what I believed.
I can't believe, it all changed so quickly,
My dreams turned into dust, as I rose to the top
Why can't you see, the way your hearts belong to me?
They all say "I love to watch you win",
So tune your ears in and everyone else out.
Pay attention to the words I'm spewing.
All and all, life is a game.
Losing your faith to the silver screen,
You proclaimed your love for me.
And as you watch me, either way, remember,
this isn't how I wanted to be.
In the city of Angels. In the city of Angels.
In the city of Angels
In the city of Angels were celebrating all the sinners.
In the city of Angels were celebrating all the sinners.
Listen to when I tell you my end is near.
I'm trapped in my mind I'm sick of saying it, trapped in my…
I'm trapped in my mind I'm sick of saying it,
I'm trapped in my mind I'm sick of saying it, FUCK!
It's all over now.
Hello to my goodbye. I'm fine.
Cut scene.
