We walked the line Living in a state of mind controlled by a tyrant Mistakes burn Never did he learn to back off and spit that sh** I'm that motherf**er picking in your old brain and stealing sleep Take the dive or keep it alive? Now it's on you [Chorus] Your tower is falling down into a black hole Take it away Take it away now The agony is crumbling over your soul Take it away Take it away now I'd like to take the price of your high and jam it deep down your throat They're calling for the stage to take your breath away You were the barricaded man They're calling for the stage to give everything away You were the barricaded man [Chorus] Your tower is falling down into a black hole Take it away Take it away now The agony is crumbling over your soul Take it away Take it away now Lost in the violent throes of this separation (Done waiting) Done waiting on pleasant times Never arrived Done waiting on pleasant times
They never arrived Lost in the violent throes of this separation Know what you're waiting for? Watch them burn your home Felt insane, but it's finally come home to me... My dear brain, hate Feel hate Let go of all your fear Your tower's falling down into a black hole You were the barricaded man Your tower's falling down into a black hole You were the barricaded man! They're calling for the stage to take your breath away You were the barricaded man They're calling for the stage to give everything away You were the barricaded man Show us the way Your tower is falling down into the hole The agony is pouring over your damned soul Was there a way to be a better man and stay? Was there a way? We'll never know Show us the way Come on, come on, will you show the way? Show us the way!! Was there a way to be a better man and stay? Was there a way? We'll never know
