The Audience

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Please allow me to introduce myself I'm the lie you use When surrounded by snakes and talking sharks Be mindful the words you choose Their eyes reflecting a purpose Calling, "Welcome to the feast" Will you follow their actions, and play game? And as they step, will you repeat their formalities? [Pre-Chorus] Thieves of our time Watch as they rape your integrity, march as the beat suggests [Chorus] Time ticks forward towards the bomb Undoing all that I once loved Come take your piece of me, blood or bone No matter, I'll still be here when you're [Verse 2] Done, crossed, a story, you were always a maybe Here, there are no absolutes Oh, used and abused, now left for show They laugh from their perch to let you know (There's no letting go) [Pre-Chorus] Thieves of our time Watch as they rape your integrity, march as the beat suggests [Chorus] Time ticks forward towards the bomb Undoing all that I once loved Come take your piece of me, blood or bone No matter, I'll still be here when you're Done... Be here when you're... Done... Be here when you're... [Post-Chorus] This is my audience Forever one, together burning stars Cut from the same disease Ever longing what and who we are [Bridge] This is the story of a boy Who lost his way and found the fire, fire! Awestruck, his courage lost Damaged goods, a trust now long retired [Post-Chorus] This is my audience Forever one, together burning stars Cut from the same disease Ever longing what and who we are [Bridge] Take all matters into your own hands And I, and I, I Let them play with the coward you can't command And I, I, I... Now you're just a memory Of humanity (The audience I will show All of myself...) [Outro] This is my audience Forever one, together burning stars Cut from the same disease Ever longing what and who we are This is my audience Forever one, together burning stars Cut from the same disease Ever longing what and who we are
