Tale As Old As

Lyrics

Golden palace, perfect luck Emerald gates that never shut My life is everything I dreamed that it could be And I just can't get enough I must have the Midas touch And nothing could ever ruin this for me [Verse 1] Oops, I spoke too soon Fell off cloud nine, woke up in a tomb My skin is grey, my eyes are vacant Clothes are bloody, mind is tainted I fell asleep and I woke up in a warzone They're throwing grenades like, like they'rе playing cornhole Or hacky sack, I'm always under attack Got some bullеts in my back, now I don't know how to act, 'cause [Pre-Chorus] All the people that were singing my praises Brought their shovels, started digging my grave, and Yeah, yeah, now I'm reanimating All the people that were singing my praises Are getting nervous 'cause they know that I'm raging That's how the story goes; it's a tale as old as [Chorus] Dirt and the earth and the grim reaper driving the hearse Old as hurt and a thirst for people to do their very worst Happy ever after turn into disaster 'Round and around we go, it's a tale as old as [Post-Chorus] Na-na, na-na, na-na Na-na-na-na, na-na, na, na Na-na, na-na, na-na Tale as old as Na-na, na-na, na-na Na-na-na-na, na-na, na, na Na-na, na-na, na-na Tale as old as [Verse 2] Methuselah, am I losing ya? Let me say it plainly, no confusion, yeah Everything I've ever loved turned into a nightmare These demons don't wear gloves, no, they don't fight fair Now I'm all black eyes and bloody knuckles Gone are the days of innocence and ruffles Mirror, mirror, give me a clearer, clearer viewOf what the hell I should doBefore I go off like a nuke, 'cause [Pre-Chorus] All the people that were singing my praises Brought their shovels, started digging my grave, and Yeah, yeah, now I'm reanimating All the people that were singing my praises Are getting nervous 'cause they know that I'm raging It's how the story goes; it's a tale as old as [Chorus] Dirt in the earth and the grim reaper driving the hearse Old as hurt and the thirst for people to do their very worst Happy ever after turn into disaster 'Round and around we go, it's a tale as old as [Post-Chorus] Na-na, na-na, na-na Na-na-na-na, na-na, na, na Na-na, na-na, na-na Tale as old as Na-na, na-na, na-na Na-na-na-na, na-na, na, na Na-na, na-na, na-na Tale as old as [Outro] Golden palace, perfect luck Emerald gates that never shut My life is everything I dreamed that it could be
