Moth

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I've been cast out, sequestered Pushed the fuck around Blindsided, beaten Locked up and bound Always thought I was human But maybe I was wrong I've been treated like an animal Since the day I was born [Pre-Chorus] The wounds that I wear Are like the crown upon a king So heavy they lie With all the pain that they bring My life is full of longing But for what, I'll never know I've been drawn into the fire As you reap what I sow [Chorus] Like a moth to a flame My wings burn away When things are too beautiful I smash them to pieces The more that you love me Insecurity releases I'll be the one that's to blame So, I'll sell my soul to a blaze [Post-Chorus] Like a moth to a flame Like a moth to a flame [Verse 2] The ruler of the kingdom That ends up the pawn So tired of thinking of Where it all went wrong Friendships, they come and go And sometimes, they end Wouldn't dream in a million years That this would be one of them [Pre-Chorus] Faith in the life Belief to the end Failure's not an option But the options exist I gave up my everything I give till I bleed Take it all, take everything Just take it from me [Chorus] Like a moth to a flame My wings burn away When things are too beautiful I smash them to pieces The more that you love me Insecurity releases I'll be the one that's to blame So, I'll sell my soul to a blaze [Bridge 1] You're pushing me, I'm pushing back Falling down, my heart attacks Compassion is lost No more hope, no more trust I tore it down and burnt it up All faith is gone [Bridge 2] Respect, devotion, dead! Disgust, hate, lies! [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] I'm not a hero or a villain Not a god, I'm just a man Staring through the hourglass At the footprints in the sand I'm stripping off my armor My battles here are done Wave my white flag to surrender And fly into the sun [Chorus] Like a moth to a flame My wings burn away When things are too beautiful I smash them to pieces The more that you love me Insecurity releases I'll be the one that's to blame So, I'll sell my soul to a blaze [Outro] Like a moth to a flame Moth to a flame Moth to a flame Moth to a flame
