Let you cut me open just to watch me bleed
Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be
Don't know why I'm hoping for what I won't receive
Falling for a promise of the emptiness machine
The emptiness machine
Going around like a revolver (like a revolver)
It's been decided how we lose (how we lose)
'Cause there's a fire under the altar (the altar)
I keep on lying to (I keep on lying to), I keep on lying to
Already pulling me in
Already under my skin
And I know exactly how this ends
I let you cut me open just to watch me bleed
The emptiness machine (I only wanted to be part of something)
The emptiness machine (I only wanna to be part of)
(It starts with one)
One thing, I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time (all I know)
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away (it's so unreal)
You didin't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying hold on, to didn't even know
I wasted it all just to (watch you go)
I kept everything inside
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventualy
Be a memory of a time when
I tried so far and got so far
But in the end, it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesn't be no matter
Can I get an encore? Do you want more?
Cookin' raw with the brooklyn boy
So, for one last time, I need y'all to roar
Now, what the hell ara you waiting for?
After me, there shall be more
So, for one last time, nigga, make some noise
Get'em jay
I'm tired to being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
I don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
I'm becoming this, all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
You keep me waiting down here, so far below
Staring up from the bottom, up from the bottom
I try escaping, but there's nowhere to go
Staring up from the bottom, up from the bottom
It's pourin' in, you're laido n the floor again
One knock at the door and then
We both know how the story ends
You can't win if your white flag's out when the war begin
Almin' so high, but swingin' so low
Tryin' to catch fire, but feelin' so cold
Hold it inside and hope it won't show
I'm sayin' it's not, but inside I know
Today's gonna de the day you notice
'Cause I'm tired of explainin' what the joke is
This is what you asked for, heavy is the crown
Fire in the sunrise, ashes rainin' down
Try to hold it in, but it keeps blendin' out
This is what you asked for, heavy is the-
Heavy is the crown
Heavy is the-
Heavy is the crown
