lyrics

I'm living here as a resident
In the hold of a false palace
Wondering if I'll ever be free
If I'll see with open eyes
But I close my ears as I hear them shout
They laugh aloud as I bathe in doubt
Tell me now do you feel clean?
What does that mean?
Well you tell me

I'm on an exodus to the castle in the sky
I don't know why they won't let me in
I'm on an exodus to the castle in the sky
I don't know why they won't let me in

Upon your dirty knees you crawl
So how is it you're ten feet tall?
Don't feel protected by your walls
Because some day they all will fall
They once were sweet like porcelain
Now she's cracked and broken
That's okay because I am too, I'm just like you
And you're just like me
Oh sweet unity

We're on an exodus to the castle in the sky
I don't know why they won't let us in
We're on an exodus to the castle in the sky
I don't know why they won't let us in

I saw a statue of the concubine
I said "Precious friend of mine
How you live is how you will die"
She said "I'm a living suicide anyway
But what have we learned today?
Don't you dare trust snakes
And though they may give you a fruit
Only you can choose to eat it."
