All I ever wanted was to win
But Ive lost again
I was taught to conquer not forgive
I'm held hostage by my sins
All I ever wanted was to be
What you wanted from me
I was told to honour not believe
In myself I can't be free
Im agnostic im a fraud
Not a prophet or a god
I've adopted all the scars of a life I can't discard
Oh
What does it mean to win
Oh no
I can be more than his
Hero
I've been walking with soldiers for slaughter
I've been holding back tyrants and kings
Where's the heralds of fortune and prosper
Cause I'm down in the mud while they sing
Will I falter
Will I win
Burn the tapestries apathys in
Im a hero my prisons my skin
Burn the tapestries apathys in
All I ever wanted was to choose
Whether I win or lose
I was taught to counter the accused
I tread lightly in their shoes
I'm accosted by the guards
While they profit from my scars
If apostles count the starts
Will they capture when I fall
Oh
What does it mean to win
Oh no
I can be more than his
Hero
I've been talking with captives who falter
I've been holding back liars with rings
Wheres the heralds of famine and torture
Cause I'm down in the mud while they swing
Will I falter
Will I win
Burn the tapestries apathys in
Im a hero my prisons my skin
Burn the tapestries apathys in
I've been walking with soldiers for slaughter
I've been holding back tyrants and kings
Where's the heralds of fortune and prosper
Cause I'm down in the mud while they swing
Will I falter
Will I win
Burn the tapestries apathys in
Im a hero my prisons my skin
Burn the tapestries apathys in
