Monuments

With nothing to live for, we aim for a life
Given the plot to the stories we write
United in fate and this anthem we sing
No sheep to a shepherd, we're pawns to a king

We claim to be something more
A masterpiece, an individual
Yet we fail, miserably, stuck in a cage called life
We sit, we wait for more, and sing the anthem of our own demise

Our own demise, our own demise
Now take the crown, now take the crown

This is our anthem
For the dreams we choose to live
This is our anthem
For a life, for a lifetime

Given the power to mend
Our lives to our heart's content
If life's a lesson we fail to grasp
That our lives are monuments built to last

Always blaming someone else
For the flaw in the plan our own mistakes
Create or take your chance, preserve your dignity
If you don't want your life to be a constant misery

Misery
Now take the crown, now take the crown

This is our anthem
For the dreams we choose to live
This is our anthem
For a life, for a lifetime

With nothing to live for, we aim for a life
Given the plot to the stories we write
United in fate and this anthem we sing
No sheep to a shepherd, we're pawns to a king
