The Story Writes Itself

The universe finds me
Telling me where I need to go

Have you ever had someone you trust
Betray all of it for their self-righteous reasons?
And have you had your murders be told by somebody else?
The colors show themselves

Watch out we have a contender
Watch how they think they know
But they really don't
They do as they're told
Watch me as I go

On the way to the world I've created
I can choose who is faded and stays

I'll leave resentment behind
Only trust your inner circle
These core lessons take time

And even if my lovers leave me for somebody else
The story writes itself

Have you ever had to tell of your murders?

Watch out we have a contender
Watch how they think they know
But I really do
And if I wanted you
I can have that, too

On the way to the world I've created
I can choose who is faded and stays
By the way I got love for your passions
Even when it's clout chasing instead

If you crawl back you can come back
But watch what you say around me
I got love (if you crawl back) where it counts (you can come back)
I hope that we all can agree

At what cost?
At what cost?
What's the cost?

(Dear God, help me practice patience) what's the concept of fate?
(Letting go will gift salvation) all the risks that we take
(Tell me what it takes to be a martyr of massacre) only add to the stakes

In the world I have created
I'm loved and I'm hated
It keeps it exciting

By the way, I got love for your passions
Even when it's clout chasing instead
By the way, be afraid
Cause I'll only stay silent when dead

What's the cost?
What's the debt?
What's the cost?
The piecing together of everything
What's the cost?
