Coheed & Cambria Sentry The Defiant
Believer, your spotlight's on the subject so incorrect
And suggestion, suggests that I'm someone you should
not respect
Oh you wear your facade so well, covered up in a
plastic shell
You're a liar to everyone around you just don't forget
Face the honest truth:
You were never you
And I'll be defiant, the lion.
Give them a fight that will open their eyes
Hangman hooded, softly swinging
Don't close the coffin yet, I'm alive!
And it's all coming
And it's all coming
Can you remember, when there was no wrong in what I
could do?
So young, biting off way more than I could chew
And then one day I grew too old
And my cares were now theirs to mold
Please accept this as my resignation it's time to go
Face the honest truth:
You were never you
I'll be defiant, the lion.
Give them a fight that will open their eyes
Hangman hooded, softly swinging
Don't close the coffin yet, I'm alive!
I'm alive!
I will now bleed for what I believe in
No more mistakes for them to make for me
So goodbye, it's my time for me...to be me
Face the honest truth:
You were never you
I'll be defiant. The lion
Give them a fight that will open their eyes
Hangman hooded, softly swinging
Don't close the coffin yet, I'm alive!
I'm alive!
I'm alive!
I'm alive!
