[Verse 1] The crowd closes in, pressures at hand, storm clouds darken and you're playing in sand The foundation's gone, swept all away, companion of fools suffers decay [Chorus] You're walking and talking,-it’s not you anymore Your thinking is stinking,-and it can’t be ignored Parade your charades,-while believing a lie You feathered together,-with birds that don't fly [Verse 2] Wisdom says to run, flee out the door, you keep moving in and continue to ignore Married to the wrong crowd, it was a slow fade, instead of being enlightened, you were being played [Pre-Chorus] The company you keep is like playing with fire, it will burn and destroy, or it will inspire It's not always that people mean to deceive, but the shadows that rule that tangle the weave [Chorus] You're walking and talking,-it’s not you anymore Your thinking is stinking,-and it can’t be ignored Parade your charades,-while believing a lie You feathered together,-with birds that don't fly [Verse 3] Peer pressure to cave, to give up the past, just a matter of time, it happened so fast Wandering in darkness no way to discern, like a dog with its vomit, it will always return [Pre-Chorus] The company you keep is like playing with fire, it will burn and destroy, or it will inspire It's not always that people mean to deceive, but the shadows that rule that tangle the weave [Chorus] You're walking and talking,-it’s not you anymore Your thinking is stinking,-and it can’t be ignored Parade your charades,-while believing a lie You feathered together,-with birds that don't fly [Bridge] Ensnared and misguided, as time passes by, swimming with sharks, praying,—— please just survive. [Chorus] You're walking and talking,- it’s not you anymore Your thinking is stinking,-and it can’t be ignored Parade your charades,-while believing a lie You feathered together,-with birds that don't fly... don’t fly [Outro] Wandering in darkness no way to discern, like a dog with its vomit, it will always return
