Board up the windows and lock all the doors
You can't see what's on the inside without ripping up the floors
Burn it down to ash and rebuild from the ground up
Just to over exaggerate a conscious thought
I've found a church where the floors shake, the ground rumbles, and the earthquakes
I've found a place where my heart crumbles and my body aches
When the weight of the world comes crashing down
It'll rip us to pieces, it'll throw us around
It'll take all we have, pull us to the ground. Just to make us think
There's no hope to be found
It's possible that no one even knows my name
It's probable that just about everyone thinks the same
Life's just a popularity contest. I guess
I guess I just forgot to cast my vote
A forgetful mess I have become. A mess, but that's only half of it
Falsify faith. Blindly walk where you can't see
Walk with him, and spend life on your knees
You'll spend life on your knees
I refuse to be a brainwashed puppet for a savage child race
Make an excuse and check it twice
Tell yourself it's right and roll the dice
Leave yourself to chance and take a chance to lose
It's all a choice. And now's your time to choose
When the weight of the world comes crashing down
It'll rip us to pieces it'll throw us around
It'll take all we have, pull us to the ground. Just to make us think
There's no hope to be found
I'll say it one more time. Life's a popularity contest
Clearly I'm just not too high in the polls
