Gatekeeper

I want
I want a vacant stage all to myself
I want my name in lights but no one else
Can coexist in this place
You won't be seen in this town again if you won't listen

Lean on the crutch that we need
Just to stand for all the meek
Keep them out, it's the cost
No re-entry
This is my town
End up face down
This is my town
End up face down

I'd rather be the fucking monster
I'd rather make it feel like this one's all for me
And it's all right, it's alright

I won't be stopped cause I fought to get here
It's all mine
Burning the building down with us inside it

I'd rather be the fucking monster
I'd rather make it feel like this one's all for me
And it's all right, it's alright

I'll be at my own throat counting backward
I'll be locking them out
Light the match and pray
This is my town
End up face down
End up face down
Gatekeeper

Overstayed the welcome
Rhythmic push and pull
I brought us together
You can thank me later

I'd rather be the fucking monster
I'd rather make it feel like this one's all for me
And it's all right, it's alright
I'm going to stay up here forever
I'm way too numb to feel it pouring down on me
And it's alright, it's alright
