Lyrics
So you finally got your throne
How does it feel to be the winner now
That you’re all alone
Can you even call this a home
When you’re always watching your own back
How could you ever grow
It makes you believe
If you can see it it can’t hurt you
So you keep them weak
And wonder why they all desert you
Now you’re standing in the corner with your back to the walls
They’re your number one supporters because they don’t talk
And I’m wishing you ever knew better
You live your life in paranoia that you’ll lose it all
And you think you can afford it but your math is wrong
Did you build a bridge or did you build a wall
So you finally have control
Can you feel the circle shrinking now
That you’ve lost your soul
How could you believe
Acting like a target was a virtue
So you watch them leave
Until there’s no one left to turn to
Now you’re standing in the shadow of a tower so tall
You’d do whatever’s in your power just to see it fall
Even though you could never do better
And while you’re waiting in the rubble from the trouble you caused
You’re so quick to point the finger like it’s not your fault
Did you notice how you’re at the center of it all
What made you so afraid
That you refuse to change
If you choose to stay the same
Can you be proud of who you became
If you spent just half the effort
That you put into proving yourself…
But you make enemies of everyone
Who tries to help
You’re not a target you’re just
Vain
Now you’re standing in the corner with your back to the walls
They’re your number one supporters because they don’t talk
And I’m wishing you ever knew better
You live your life in paranoia that you’ll lose it all
And you think you can afford it but your math is wrong
Did you build a bridge or did you build a wall
