Backstabber

I've been walkin' through this house as a ghost

I understand that there's no way out

And I can take it while my heart and mind are numb

I can tell you that it hurts now

Voices in my head tell me what I can do

you'll never get a ticket through

You can't turn from the bottom when the chance at redemption ain't comin' for you...

Well maybe I secretly know

And I've been sabotaging myself

You can call me Backstabber

And I'm waiting for the ambush

I'm hiding behind my own worst enemy

Then I burnt this house down

With everything in it

All of us in it

I'm tearing down the walls of our home

Hoping that you'll hear me somehow

And I can take it while the Earth stood still

Well I can tell you that it's dark now

Oh youthful, blindness, and curse

Begging for truth, and kindness, forgiveness and blessings given to all of us

Undeserved and narrowly just

Oh maybe I secretly know and I've been sabotaging myself

You can call me Backstabber

And I'm waiting for the ambush

I'm hiding behind my own worst enemy

Then I burnt this house down

With everything in it

All of us in it

I never meant to paint these walls with fear and regret

I didn't know it was happening

The photos that line these halls are ones that I've never seen

So take your pictures, leave

Take your pictures, leave

And I've been walkin' through this house like a ghost

I understand that there's no way out

And I'm waiting for the ambush

I'm hiding behind my own worst enemy

Then I burnt this house down

With everything in it

With all of us in it
