I've got everything I'd ever need
A home, loving family food and the sea
Everything else is unwanted lust
I want it all but all is never enough
To snuff out the fact
That I'm overzealous of the notion of being promoted
Contrary to wanting to be free
Caged without a fence
Barbed wire lines the walls of my head
They'll all snigger and smirk like you're a dying dog in the dirt
When they've been dead inside for twice as long
Meaningless lives giving meaning by being less mean
I mean is that justification for everything?
The holier than thou god complex again
(We'll build you up to be the god you think you are)
Piece by piece
We'll build you up to be the god that you think you are
Piece by piece
Wait awhile for that asshole smile
It's all in your head kid
That mirror won't kick your head in
But I will
No charges laid
Just your head to the bricks
One hit to the pavement
Now I'm the hypocrite
'Cause I tried to make a truce
Doubted my will from the get-go
Now look what I've gotta do to you
Didn't they teach you about the detrimental effects of bullying
Last year while you still in school, huh?
Dropped out? Dropped on your head at birth?
Same thing in the end, you're a tool
Piece by piece (piece by piece)
Piece by piece
We'll build you up to be the god that you think you are
Piece by piece
We'll build you up to be the god that you think you are
Piece by piece
Wait awhile for that asshole smile
Now I'm the hypocrite
'Cause I tried to make a truce
Doubted my will from the get go
Now look what I've gotta do to you
We're here to escape
Reality is here to stay
Snake state of mind
Anger and clarity intertwined
