[Verse: Daniel Sherman & Jacob Woll]
I’ve spent an hour typing and erasing
Thoughts exploding, heartbeat racing
Can’t pull the right words out of my head
All I can feel is my heartbeat aching
Sandgrains falling, hands are shaking
Just when I felt peace forming within
[Rap: Daniel Sherman]
I'm always here again, the ceiling’s falling sand
The times I failed and fell replay inside my head, rewind, regret, remind me that
I’ll never be enough if time is always stuck
How can I build our future right if I've been left in what I was, the said and done
But is it done? Is it donе? Is it done? Is it won? Is it won?
[Chorus: Jacob Woll]
Reviving my revolving insanity
Prеsenting past mistakes as present clarity
Can me and my youth find some similarity
Or is the past a present that I wasted?
[Rap: Daniel Sherman]
I remember being a little kid and
Thinking everybody else was innocent
Didn't know the world was wanting me to give
Now I do and I can't break the walls of my regret
Talking to the King, I thought I killed you dead
Thought the war would end
Thought your blood was shed
Thought I told you you were just a peasant
But I guess you heard something I never said
On the last album, said God took it all away
And honestly I think my words misplaced
The meaning of what I was really try'na say
I didn't mean the world became a better place
I meant my outlook changed
I meant my sin erased
I meant that every scar of doubt became a sign of faith
I share it all to try to build an army up to face
(BREAK)
The King (Face the King)
The reason I sing isn't fun and money
If it was I wouldn't have earned a single thing
(END OF BREAK)
It's to try to toss the throne
Into a volcano
A flaming inferno
To try and overthrow
The way the whole world has been built up and trained to look down on those people try'na give their mind some control
[Chorus: Jacob Woll]
Reviving my revolving insanity
Presenting past mistakes as present clarity
Can me and my youth find some similarity
Or is the past a present that I wasted?
[Bridge: Jacob Woll]
An endless loop
My heart in two
The disintegrating proof
That I have life to lose
Now that I live for truth
I’ll learn to crash right through
These walls could suffocate me
But they cannot contain You
(2ND HALF BEGINS, METAL BREAKDOWN MEETS WAR CHANT, CHAOTIC BELLS LAYERED)
[Verse: Daniel Sherman & Full Band]
Build up an army, we can kill the King
Erase your memories, fight presently
Slaughter shame, he wants you cowering
Your fight is better fought with the calvary
[Chorus: Full Band]
WAR
WAR
BREAK OUT
PUSH
FIGHT
BREAK OUT
TICK
TOCK
TIME'S UP
BREAK
OUT
ALARM CLOCK
[Outro: Jacob Woll]
(Soft now)
Uncharted territory
Or so I thought
But this freedom from mourning
Looks so much like who I once was
Maybe the innocence of 2010
Doesn't have to stay dead
Maybe there really is a life
Without sand stacking weight up on my head
With the king on my heels, I'm running towards that
I’ve spent an hour typing and erasing
Thoughts exploding, heartbeat racing
Can’t pull the right words out of my head
All I can feel is my heartbeat aching
Sandgrains falling, hands are shaking
Just when I felt peace forming within
[Rap: Daniel Sherman]
I'm always here again, the ceiling’s falling sand
The times I failed and fell replay inside my head, rewind, regret, remind me that
I’ll never be enough if time is always stuck
How can I build our future right if I've been left in what I was, the said and done
But is it done? Is it donе? Is it done? Is it won? Is it won?
