When I was the face of the new day
Only I didn't share my grave
They gave me their word, they lost their names
Well now I'm here to pay

Not everybody's getting out of here
Somebody has to hold the door
One million sacrifices just to get this far
And it'll take a million more
Well I've got no wallet full of polaroids
I've got no sight I yearn to see
Got no retirement, not even when I'm dead
So let's not waste the energy

What a silly thing to matter
And what a silly thing to dream
And what a waste of our volition
To mourn the man I would've been

Thought I was meant to be remembered
Be a statue on the mound
But I'm coming around
I wanted death to be a party
All my friends in backless gowns
But I'm coming around
And I see fire on the new horizon

Thought we could reason our way out of this
I don't believe that anymore
Say it with gravity, we're only going down
If we don't kick off of the floor
I know the killer is a growing boy
I know it's in my blood to bleed
You know the way it is, I live from A to B
I'm the ending of a legacy

But don't go thinking about a story
And don't go thinking I don't think
And don't go thinking I don't love you all
I love you more than anything

I was to be a living legend
Be the gilding on the crown
But I'm coming around
To be the guru on the mountain
I had eyes on higher ground
But I'm coming around
My pride was in my patience
I was something to be found
But I'm coming around
And in my head I was a father
Trying to pass an asset down
But I'm coming around
