Lyrics:
There's a garden full of snakes, but I fear it's all my fault
I could show you all the way, but you don't know who you are
Can you anticipate how it all will crumble
The ending's in the shame that's begun

It's not like you ever really had a choice
When you flew too close to the sun, you didn't expect to fall
Yeah
Yeah

How much will you take when everyone's a fool
You said you liked the way I like to play it cool
Your religions and your states only pay for what is cruel
The anatomy of what we built is f****** embarrassing

And it's not like you ever really had a choice
When you flew too close to the sun, you didn't expect to fall
Yeah
The end's begun

But it's not like you ever really had a choice
When you flew too close to the sun, you didn't expect to fall
The end's begun, except the end's begun, except the end's begun
Except the end's begun
