lyrics

i build myself a fortress
embezzled with my neatly
packaged economic theories
all my savings, all my wishlists,
all my future plans, spread out according to plan
and i felt like i couldn't live for anything more,
anything more will
just be another expense for me to put into this list
(i'm already fed up and i don't wanna go where you want me to go)
i'm losing sense of the things that keep on hoarding
like this mean son of a bitch thing i wanted last year
and god damn i won't go out to spend my money
on some temporary bullshit that makes me go numb

and i'm fading, and it's growing, it all amounts to nothing
and i'm fading, and it's growing, to something not worth my time and money

i don't wanna be some star in
wasting my life on nothings
if it wasn't for you all, i'd be cold and smart

i don't wanna be some star in
wasting my life on worthless
fearfull assumptions of how i will run

i've grown myself a fortress filled with money and time alone

"and live unstifled
and break these chains
all will be fading
all will be temporary"

i don't know where i'm headed
i don't know i've said it
i don't know if i should waste myself with this

"and save your kingdom
and face this riddle
and talk to this mirror
and fight these urges

and live unstifled
and break these chains
all will be fading
all will be temporary

and save your kingdom
but face this riddle
embrace and be fearful
just don't miss the river"
