[Intro] Hush now, little liar... The room is getting colder. Do you feel the weight of every word You rested on my shoulder? ​[Verse 1] You paint the sky a different shade of gray Then ask me why I cannot see the blue. You build a maze and watch me lose my way, Then act surprised that I’m not following you. But the walls are moving inward, can’t you feel the squeeze? I’ve learned to breathe in spaces where you’d drop down to your knees. Your "truth" is just a shadow, a flickering little light, I’m turning off the power... sleep tight. ​[Pre-Chorus] It’s a long way down the rabbit hole you dug for me. Now I’m the one who’s holding all the keys. One... two... the mirror’s cracked for you. Three... four... you’re not welcome anymore. Five... Six... You're a Lying Bitch! ​[Chorus] Rock-a-bye, monster, in the house built of lies, When the truth breaks, the ego will die. Down comes the "reality" you tried to create, Now you’re the ghost trapped inside your own gate. Shatter the Glass. Softly we go... Into the static of the seeds that you sow. ​[Verse 2] Did I say that? Or was it just your head? Maybe you’re the one who’s misremembering what was said. See how it tastes? The salt upon the tongue? The song of your manipulation has finally been sung. I’m the architect of silence, the master of the doubt, I’m the exit sign you’ll never find to lead you back out. ​[Bridge] Check your pulse. Check the air. Is it real? Are you there? Who are you without the Victim? You’re nothing. You’re thin air. Who are you without the Lies? Just a shadow... in my eyes. ​[Chorus] Rock-a-bye, monster, in the house built of lies, When the truth breaks, the ego will die. Down comes the "reality" you tried to create, Now you’re the ghost trapped inside your own gate. Shatter the Glass. Softly we go... Into the static of the seeds that you sow. ​[Outro] You’re getting sleepy. The truth is heavy, isn’t it? It’s not my head... it’s yours. Goodnight.
