Down in Flames

When the day betrays your goodness
And they smile as they turn the blade
And it seems they've got you surrounded
And you're prepared to go down in flames

Look around (I'm coming)
I'm in like flynn
You know i've killed before
And i'll do it again

Some people never learn
Play with fire, you get burned
Love, cover your eyes
It's time to vaporize them all

They retreat, defeated and vengeful
Grasping for reasons and clues
As to how the righteous prevail
And the petty swine always lose

In the end
They're begging for death
Waste their whole lives pretending
Such a precious mess

Some people's tragic airs
Give urgency that's not theirs
Love, open your eyes
Derealize them all

Shape and create a foe
For your shadow zone
But take a break from the show
And they suddenly seem so alone

And desperate for your projections
I stopped feeding into it
It stopped making sense
It's better this way

The present tense
Never comes late
It's never too late
To rise from the flames
