Lifeless, and haunting me
I’ve had these questions from day one
Inanimate, but still taunting me
I’ll never have the courage to answer them
There is something behind the mirror
Our reflections are wearing masks
Built up of lies we’ve told ourselves, too scared to ask
Is this how we survive?
Numb our minds to the pain
Just to deal with it, to not feel like this
We are wasting our lives, and we’re running out of time
Give anything to feel okay
Pretend that sleepless nights make up for wasted days
We are creatures of habit, and we’re stuck in our ways
We are the architects of our own failings
We are the puppets with broken strings
Born to lose in a future that’s fading
Broken down and left with nothing
We are the architects of our own failings
We are the puppets with broken strings
Born to lose in a future that’s fading
We never learnt a fucking thing.
Your eyes are open, but your mind's been closed
You’ve spent your whole life comatose.
We build ourselves up, so life can knock us down
We are painted mannequins wearing broken crowns.
We are the architects of our own failings
We are the puppets with broken strings
Born to lose in a future that’s fading
Broken down and left with nothing
We are the architects of our own failings
We are the puppets with broken strings
Born to lose in a future that’s fading
We never learnt a fucking thing.
Divided we fall
We’ve fallen too far
To ever get up again
We can’t see the light
Divided we fall
We’ve fallen too far
To ever get up again,
To ever get up again.
Divided we fall
We’ve fallen too far
To ever get up again,
To ever get up again.
Divided we fall (We are the architects of our failings)
We’ve fallen too far (We are the puppets with broken strings)
To ever get up again (Born to lose in a future that's fading)
To ever get up again. (Broken down and left with nothing)

What were we born to be?
Dragged down by the weight of our bodies
Held back by the doubt in our minds
Give it up; every breath's a count down
We’ve reached the end of the line
We are built to give in
Bodies set to fail
Poisoned by our creators
Weighed on tipped scales
We're all made the same way
Flawed at the point of creation
And we die on our knees
Victims to the same disease
We're all made the same way
Flawed at the point of creation
And we'll never be free
Enslaved to selfish needs
We are the rot, the sickness, the cancer
We are the question, and death is the answer
We are the rot, the sickness, the cancer
We are the question, and death is the answer
Put us back together to tear us apart
Destined to be broken, born sick at heart
We're all made the same way
Flawed at the point of creation
And we die on our knees
Victims of the same disease
We're all made the same way
Flawed at the point of creation
And we'll never be free
Not as long as we still breathe
This life is blood for blood
It drinks us fucking dry
We all go through hell
To find out heaven’s just another lie.

Your mind is bursting at the seams
But those lies have no hold on me
I bit my tongue for far too long
You’re wasting away, pulled down by demons you’re too blind to see,
Too scared to believe, you’ve lost everything you wanted to be
I’ll hold your eyes, force you to see
This tortured vision, and what it means to me
I’ll tear your head out, out of the fucking clouds
I’ll nail your feet into the ground
Wake up, dreamer, the wolves are closing in
You’ve taken this too far and now its sink or swim
Wake up, dreamer, you’ve left us all behind
Your walls are falling down
You’re trapped inside your mind
It’s bursting at the seams
But those lies have no hold on me
I've bit my tongue for far too long
I'll keep your head above the waves
You’re not too deep for me to save
I’ll keep your head above the waves
I can't let you drown
You're not too deep for me to pull you out
Open your eyes; you've ruined everything
That you held dear, all that you ever loved
Now you’re drowning yourself
But no matter how far, I'll try
To pull you out; I can save you this time
I'm not a man of empty promises
Not a seller of broken dreams
I put my heart into all that matters
To show you how much you mean to me
Wake up, dreamer, the wolves are closing in
You’ve taken this too far and now its sink or swim
Wake up, dreamer, you’ve left us all behind
Your walls are falling down
You’re trapped inside your mind.

I never know where this path is going
Never asked where this road leads
Never given thought direction
Happy to follow my own feet
I’ve had my head in the clouds my whole life
Don’t remember what the ground feels like
Chasing these dreams I've had since sixteen
Nothing has ever meant this much to me
Nothing has ever meant this much to me

Take me back to before
I had this weight on my chest, and these wolves at my door
When I could let you in
Before your touch became cold, and a stranger to my skin
The truth is (the truth is)
I’m scared of what you might find
Behind these walls inside my mind
I’ll keep my guard up; I won’t let you win
I’ve built a mask for my thoughts
Told a thousand lies and took the fall
You couldn’t understand it, even if you tried
I’ve never been whole, and I’ll never get back
To how I was before, I’ve lost all I had
The things I love become the things I lack
My demons define who I am.
I’ve spent most my life fighting with my shadow
It’s got the best of me
It’s got the best of me
I’ve spent most my time living without passion
It’s got the best of me
It’s got the best of me
Breathe new life into this soul
A touch to warm these bones
I’ve spent my whole life hollow; I’ve walked this road alone
I’ve spent my whole life hollow; I’ve walked this road alone
No solid path to follow, I’ve done it on my own
I’ve never been whole, and I’ll never get back
To how I was before, I’ve lost all I had
The things I love become the things I lack
My demons define who I am
I might have lost the best of me
But I was built with my own hands
I’m proud of what’s left of me.
My demons define who I am.
