  • So this is what you meant
    When you said that you were spent
    And now it's time to build from the bottom of the pit, right to the top
    Don't hold back
    Packing my bags and giving the Academy a rain check

    I don't ever want to let you down
    I don't ever want to leave this town
    'Cause after all
    This city never sleeps at night

    It's time to begin, isn't it?
    I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
    I'm just the same as I was
    Now don't you understand
    That I'm never changing who I am

    So this is where you fell
    And I am left to sell
    The path to heaven runs through miles of clouded hell right to the top
    Don't look back
    Turning to rags and giving the commodities a rain check

    I don't ever want to let you down
    I don't ever want to leave this town
    'Cause after all
    This city never sleeps at night

    It's time to begin, isn't it?
    I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
    I'm just the same as I was
    Now don't you understand
    That I'm never changing who I am

    It's time to begin, isn't it?
    I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
    I'm just the same as I was
    Now don't you understand
    That I'm never changing who I am

    This road never looked so lonely
    This house doesn't burn down slowly
    To ashes
    To ashes

    It's time to begin, isn't it?
    I get a little bit bigger, but then I'll admit
    I'm just the same as I was
    Now don't you understand
    That, I'm never changing who I am

    It's time to begin, isn't it?
    I get a little bit bigger but then I'll admit
    I'm just the same as I was
    Don't you understand
    That I'm never changing who I am Writer/s: Benjamin Arthur McKee, Daniel Coulter Reynolds, Daniel Wayne Sermon
