Yeah I smiled while they gave applause Nodded off a couple times Laughed when they said kneel Pled guilty for my crimes Honestly? respect the grift You got em on their knees A brotherhood of fangs is nice I’ll take integrity Check your patterns… I know mine. Point your finger blame the fool Is that your sacrifice? Your courtroom needs no jester It needs a therapist Sorry that I spoke my mind So sorry I exist Retconning friendship Retconning character Permission granted To mind your manners Seasons change- fall is coming The baby birds have flown Your only guarantee in life You’ll be forgotten when you’re gone Cut me down Cut me up up up up up Cut me down Cut me up up up up up [instrument break] Statues carved from mountains crumble In a revolution Statues carved from mole hills, they melt In precipitation Armies made of loyal soldiers Have turned on royalty Armies made of astroturf Casual casualties [chorus] Check your allies… I know mine. Point your finger blame the fool Is that your sacrifice? Your courtroom has no jester And needs a therapist Sorry that I spoke my mind So sorry I exist Retconning friendship Retconning character Permission granted Obey your masters Plans backfire - the fall is coming The nest is empty now You dug your grave and sealed your fate You’ll be forgotten when you’re gone [instrument break] [chorus] Check your patterns… I know mine. Point your finger blame the fool Is that your sacrifice? Your courtroom needs no jester It needs a therapist Sorry that I spoke my mind So sorry I exist Retconning friendship Retconning character Permission granted To mind your manners Seasons change- fall is coming The baby birds have flown Your only guarantee in life You’ll be forgotten Forgotten when you’re gone Yeah You’ll be forgotten when you’re gone Cut me down Cut me up up up up up Cut me down Cut me up up ah ah ah
