The Price

[Verse 1] Save your breath They've heard enough from you There's nothing left Every next word pours salt deeper in the wound This cratered hole You dug yourself With shovel in hand You'll beg for help I hate this apparatus, I just wanna watch it burn Let the fire glass the land and see what blossoms in return Nero fiddled on as most of Rome was set ablaze Actually he wasn't there, but that's less interesting to say Pass the buck, the luck is rough The odds they suck, so bluff's a must, I must adjust Am I evеr gonna finally satiate the lust It's entеrtaining, suffocating in the ash and dust because [Chorus] This isn't what you thought it would be You wanna leave but you can't escape You'll just end up at the bottom with me That body bag that you'll fill one day Can wait you out [Verse 2] Turn deaf ears And blind wide eyes The smoke is choking so much more Than lungs and desperate cries, I find When there's static in the action That's when passion Gets passed to the wayside With a lack of pride Make way for the next distraction Fuck we gonna do as our mouths keep gasping? I don't really wanna die Is anything really gonna matter after all I've climbed the ladder just to fall And break and shatter every bone I've ever had If there's a lesson to be learned You get what you pay for! [Chorus] This isn't what you thought it would be You wanna leave but you can't escape You'll just end up at the bottom with me That body bag that you'll fill one day Can wait you out This isn't what you thought it would be You wanna leave but you can't escape (Escape!) You'll just end up at the bottom with me That body bag that you'll fill one day Can wait you out (Out!) [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] This isn't what you thought it would be You wanna leave but you can't escape (You can't escape) You'll just end up at the bottom with me That body bag that you'll fill one day Can wait you out This isn't what you thought it would be You wanna leave but you can't escape (Escape!) You'll just end up at the bottom with me That body bag that you'll fill one day Can wait you out (Out!) [Outro] This is what I want This is what I came for This is what I lost This is what I paid for This is what I want This is what I came for This was what I lost This is what I paid for
