Blank stares from broken men
So withered from the poisons they can't remember when
There were once honest reasons
It's all a lie, it died 100,000 miles ago
Pretending I'm still here

Justify what I've become
Sanctify what I've become

Amazing disgrace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me
Better lost if this is found, best blinded never to see
The race to save face, nothing now is what we meant it to be
Pretending I'm still here

It's a system now, intertwined
Take your place in the line to be ground by the gears of the masterpiece

Betrayal

Justify what I've become
Sanctify what I've become

Suffered consequence
It's been so long since
Any piece of this
Made any kind of sense
You anoint the king,
I'll burn everything
Down to ashes
You giveth, I taketh away
You giveth, I taketh away

It's a system now, intertwined
Take your place in the line to be ground by the gears of the masterpiece.
Betrayal
