Trade me like an asset but I'm no ones slave
Not going to be your Mary Magdalene
Raise me up high just to put me down again
Don't need a dictator or a one man band
Siting there all Jesus complex
You want to be sniffing cocaine with 'bitches' on your lap
With a razor blade I'm going to cut these strings
Dye my hair, get some new clothes and a brand new set of wings
I don't need your dreams there's no heaven above
Building castles in the sky and reducing them to mud
Now I've got your sickness running so deep
Got to purge this poison let the holy wound weep
It's the end of days, it's a red brick wall
Building scaffolding up to the sun, it's a long, long, way to fall
Now I don't know what's worse, I don't know what's worse
Battles with batons and bottles and bombs
or a one man curse
Occupy your dignity
Occupy your self respect
You're getting high on the dreamers dreams
With no sense of regret
I don't need your dreams, there's no heaven above
Building castles in the sky and reducing them to mud
Now I've got your sickness running so deep
Got to purge this poison let the holy wound weep.
