[Verse] What's the crown worth when it's dipped in sin Gold threads fray and the rust sets in Build the castle but the walls don't stand Grains of deceit slipping through your hand [Chorus] What's it all about if it's ill gotten then it's rotten Climbing ladders breaking hearts we’ve forgotten Spin the wheel but the prize ain't pure The weight of lies is too heavy to endure Is too heavy to endure Is too heavy to endure [Verse 2] Step by step on a fractured floor Every step heavier than before A dance with shadows in a fleeting race Truth’s mirror breaks when it sees your face [Chorus] What's it all about if it's ill gotten then it's rotten Climbing ladders breaking hearts we’ve forgotten Spin the wheel but the prize ain't pure The weight of lies is too heavy to endure Is too heavy to endure Is too heavy to endure [Bridge] Echoes linger in the halls of greed Never silence for those who just breed Turning circles in a maze untrue No escape if it's built by you [Verse 3] Plant your seeds in rotten grounds Watch them grow but see they’re bound By the roots of what's not right Even bright days turn into night Is too heavy to endure [Bridge] Echoes linger in the halls of greed Never silence for those who just breed Turning circles in a maze untrue No escape if it's built by you [Verse 4] What's the crown worth when it's dipped in sin Gold threads fray and the rust sets in Build the castle but the walls don't stand Grains of deceit slipping through your hand [Chorus] What's it all about if it's ill gotten then it's rotten Climbing ladders breaking hearts we’ve forgotten Spin the wheel but the prize ain't pure The weight of lies is too heavy to endure Is too heavy to endure Is too heavy to endure [Outro] Echoes linger in the halls of greed Never silence for those who just breed Turning circles in a maze untrue No escape if it's built by you
