I'm Building My Tomb

I'm building my tomb
One to encapsulate
To comfort, hide, and deactivate
I'm safe in this room

The world outside irrelevant
I honor the final covenant
This is my final testament
I am dead to the world

Nobody heard me
That much I know certainly
Nobody heard me
Will they hear me now?

Please hear me out

Take me
Out of this game
Would it be such a shame if I was
Locked up, never seen again

Nobody ever listened to me
Now darkness fills my every memory

My heart devoted to this mission
Pleading now will someone listen
Each brick I lay will spell my doom
I'm building my tomb

There was a time I was content
A fool, I was ignorant
To the lies and violence
Now all I will know is silence

Silence! Silence!
Give me a moment of silence to mourn the loss of my innocence
The child you pissed off is grown now and he's ready to take his crown

(King)

A friend to all the ones who feel left out
Could make all the difference in the world
Now i'm reclusive, quite possibly deluded
And feel excluded from humanity

Nobody ever listened to me
Now darkness fills my every memory

My heart devoted to this mission
Pleading now will someone listen
Each brick I lay will spell my doom
I'm building my tomb

I need to find a way to make a change for the better
I'll be a voice for all the ones who won't stand up
Don't be so closed minded, your ignorance has blinded
You must open up your eyes

I'll be the king to all of the broken spirits
King of the dead

Nobody ever listened to me
Now darkness fills my every memory

My heart devoted to this mission
Pleading now will someone listen
Each brick I lay will spell my doom
I'm building my tomb
