Pawns by Roads of Glass Lyrics
Left for the vultures
Picked clean
Of anything that
Resembled hope
Rotting with the
Dreams that once were
All that remains
Is a carcass
A colorless foreshadow
Of what's to come
They want to see you dissolve
Will you let them?
The afterimage
Leaves you to suffer
Blistered and broken
With nothing to loose
Hold tight
Give it all that you've got
Promise you that you will hold on
Can't you see there's nothing to loose?
In my mind
I've rearranged
All the pieces
Put into place
I Got out of the line
Now I'm doing just fine
Nothing but pawns
Letting them pull the strings
Nothing but pawns
You need
To make the change
Like a snake to its pray
Hold tight
Feel it's deadly bite
Hold tight
Constricting and sickening
Hold tight
Feeling dizzy
All I see is
My enemy
Drained slow
Everything I once knew
I'm just a pawn
It's just me pulling the strings
I'm just a pawn
Making the change
In my mind
I've rearranged
All the pieces
Put into place
I Got out of the line
Now I'm doing just fine
Nothing but pawns
Letting them pull the strings
Nothing but pawns
You need
To make the change
Stop following the line
Stop walking straight
A king plays with pawns
But still knows it's place
I know my place
Every pawn that you loose
Is a dwelled on mistake
You can't win the game
Scared of the stakes
I know my place
In my mind
I've rearranged
All the pieces
Put into place
I Got out of the line
Now I'm doing just fine
Nothing but pawns
Letting them pull the strings
Nothing but pawns
You need
To make the change
Trust me one day
You will see things my way
Look at the facts and you'll see
Everything has come to me
Trust me one day
You will see things my way
Look at the facts and you'll see
The time will come for you to king me
The time has come
Give it to me
Look at the facts and you will see
Nothing but pawns
I'm pulling the strings
Picked clean
Of anything that
Resembled hope
Rotting with the
Dreams that once were
All that remains
Is a carcass
A colorless foreshadow
Of what's to come
They want to see you dissolve
Will you let them?
The afterimage
Leaves you to suffer
Blistered and broken
With nothing to loose
Hold tight
Give it all that you've got
Promise you that you will hold on
Can't you see there's nothing to loose?
In my mind
I've rearranged
All the pieces
Put into place
I Got out of the line
Now I'm doing just fine
Nothing but pawns
Letting them pull the strings
Nothing but pawns
You need
To make the change
Like a snake to its pray
Hold tight
Feel it's deadly bite
Hold tight
Constricting and sickening
Hold tight
Feeling dizzy
All I see is
My enemy
Drained slow
Everything I once knew
I'm just a pawn
It's just me pulling the strings
I'm just a pawn
Making the change
In my mind

All the pieces

Now I'm doing just fine
Nothing but pawns
Letting them pull the strings
Nothing but pawns

I'm pulling the strings
