I saw the stars in your eyes
But that was a life built on lies
Fool me once
Shame on me
Fool me twice
Now we'll see
They said you were a hero
The best there ever was
But now I see the danger
And your lying false cause
I see the truth of who you are
I see your broken, dimming star
Your kind eyes turn angry
Your smiles turned grimace
Your hands to break me
Your fire to save face
I'm coming for your kingdom
Your heavy, golden crown
The broken and burnt victim
I've come to tear it down
I'll burn it down to ashes
Your built-up paradise
I'll smile as it crashes
You'll wish that I had died
