Count backwards from ten And you'll see the change Except in your heart It's sadly the same And if you were the queen Who would you choose for a king? Or would you rather be free? Or like a dog on a chain? I'm not so sure All things are as you say Nothing's going fast enough tonight Nothing's gonna feed your appetite All the lights are on, it comforts no one but your silhouette Nothing's gonna keep you satisfied Though a million boys would love to try Build new cages, but the beast rules every corner of your life I can see it coming over you You've got your eyes on sharpened knives I can see it coming over you You'll turn your friends to alibis I can see it, it's inside of you I heard it in your voice last night I can see it coming over you You've got your eyes on sharpened knives And it's cutting your lifelines Nothing's going fast enough tonight Nothing's gonna feed your appetite All the lights are on, it comforts no one but your silhouette Nothing's gonna keep you satisfied Though a million boys would love to try Build new cages, but the beast rules every corner of your life Perfect, it'd be perfect Just to forget yourself Wretched melodies call you from the deep When you should be sleeping Want becomes a need as you feed the beast Sacrifice your freedom Wretched melodies call you from the deep When you should be sleeping And they know your name And they know your name
