lyrics

The Boy who has it all
Wants more and more and more and more
He built a ladder to
Observe and strip his people to the bone
He can't even relax
With troubles of a nothing on his mind
So how can I believe it's all in him and not in me?

What is the reason for the falling sky
And I can see you climb

Pick up your septor
The boy, the boy

The boy who has it all
He builds a wall to separate and hide
He built a ladder to escape the very world that he creates
He can't even relax with troubles of a nothing on his mind
So how can I believe it's all in him and not in me?

What is the reason for the fallen sky
And I can see you climb

Pick up your septor
I reject the boy

Can we go to a place
Are you having a way
Where the walls of perception fall out of grace
For you are the antithesis of the power of truth in this world
And I will bleed, I will bleed for you

What is the reason for the falling sky
And I can see you climb

Pick up your septor
I reject the
The boy
