Standing on top of your wall
Looking across your great escape
I was fueled by innocent eyes
My broken heart has a thin disguise
To hide the truth with the greatest lie
I'm just a man who has chosen sides
You say you don't need me
But then you won't release me
How can I leave with this blood on my hands
Just walk away from the throats I've slit
Battle everyone else's demons
And protect their dreams
I fought it all for the glory of bright city lights
I traded warmth of days for the darkness of night
Only to fade away like one of the millions
Why are you pushing me to fall?
Wishing I would make a grave mistake
Or stay behind when I hear the call
Become someone on the take
I was fueled by innocent eyes
My broken heart has a thin disguise
To hide the truth with the greatest lie
I'm just a man who has chosen sides
