We're now up here alone
Terror on the intercom, can someone save us?
Systems malfunction
Blast it, this damn machine
Over and out captain

Something lurks, creeps
On the counter top somewhere behind you
Parasitic cyst, I can't stand to watch
It's coming up and out of your chest
Remember when we were young?

Sit up right on the table
A photograph of earth feeding me a way back
Frightened, I tear alone, or maybe not the only one there
Hello, hello? When it rings, will you answer?

There, corner tall, short stance
It's you, come on kill me
You made a good friend to me
But while you were outnumbered and torn
You made us do things

Oh, dear god, I don't feel alive
When you're cut short of misery
Will you pray it be the end?
Give a look of surprised, wide eyes to me

Then you'll know just what I am
The scare that triggers your fear
Come know me in a different light now
Come know me as god

You made a good friend to me
But while you were outnumbered and torn
You made us do things to you

Run sand hourglass
When it's my time, will I be worth?
Spin round carousel
When your horse isn't screwed in

Oh, dear god, I don't feel alive
When you're cut short of misery (raise forth lost cause)
Will you pray it be the end?
Give a look surprised, wide eyes to me (raise forth lost cause)
Then you'll know just what I am (subtle demise the legitimate cry)
The scare that triggers your fear
Come know me in a different light now
Come know me as god (raise forth lost cause) Writer/s: Claudio Sanchez, Joshua Eppard, Michael Todd, Travis Stever
