As I Slowly Slip Away
Set the stage
Usher in a new age
With the heads of our predecessors mounted on pikes
Such a shame we've got to burn it all down
Burn it all down
Burn it all down
Cut the head off the snake
Yet we still wear the skin all the same
For every head taken, two will take it's place
We're destined for entanglement
So burn it all down
So whisper your lies to me (so whisper your lies to me)
And fill my head with your deceit
(So fill my head with your deceit)
As the effects of sedation wears away
We wear hearts on our sleeves
Will you avoid wearing blame
Or will we turn on eachother?
I know I've got a broken soul
With emotions I can't control
So let's see what the future holds
As I slowly slip away
So whisper your lies to me (so whisper your lies to me)
And fill my head with your deceit
(So fill my head with your deceit)
A tyrant that is you
(Tyrant that is you)
Brings the violence out of me
So fill my head with your deceit
Cut the head off the snake
For every one taken two will take its place
Cut the head off the snake
For every one taken two will take its place
Usher in a new age
With the heads of our predecessors mounted on pikes
Such a shame we've got to burn it all down
Burn it all down
Burn it all down
Cut the head off the snake
Yet we still wear the skin all the same
For every head taken, two will take it's place
We're destined for entanglement
So burn it all down
So whisper your lies to me (so whisper your lies to me)
And fill my head with your deceit
(So fill my head with your deceit)
As the effects of sedation wears away
We wear hearts on our sleeves
Will you avoid wearing blame
Or will we turn on eachother?
I know I've got a broken soul
With emotions I can't control
So let's see what the future holds
As I slowly slip away
So whisper your lies to me (so whisper your lies to me)
And fill my head with your deceit
(So fill my head with your deceit)
A tyrant that is you
(Tyrant that is you)
Brings the violence out of me
So fill my head with your deceit
Cut the head off the snake
For every one taken two will take its place
Cut the head off the snake
For every one taken two will take its place
