Hail Your Highness - Hoax lyrics

I can't seem to escape from what crawls above me And puts me to work while it takes from my mind I can't put my hand to my face and not pull it away Without seeing nothing but guilt on my palms Leaving a map to my sins on my face Giving my whole past away What a hoax, I'm no fool But in the front of my mind I could see myself slipping Weren't you aware you were my last brace standing What a hoax, it played out true I string myself along so terribly and you tire me out Day after day I'm barely even there I'm hardly worth a thing It's not about who you are It's who you know that gets you further My life is right now, my world is turning I'm fighting the pull, but I keep loosing, I keep loosing We search and we search, but what are we finding We search and we search, but what are we finding I've seen the Devil but I know what God looks like Those eyes are tearing up in me We're coming out, we're coming out when we're good and ready We're coming out, we'll turn the tables of this city What a hoax, I'm no fool But in the front of my mind I could see myself slipping Weren't you aware you were my last brace standing What a hoax, it played out true I string myself along so terribly and you tire me out Day after day I'm barely even there I'm hardly worth a thing I pray to God that there's something in my heart That gets me there If you leave me now I'll control the fall Forcing my shoulders back I'm down here watching I will not be chained, be made a working slave This is my chapter of victory I pray to God that there's something in my heart That gets me there (It's not about who you are it's who you know that gets you further) It gets you further
