[Intro]
RU486! RU486! RU486! RU486! RU486!
[Verse 1]
Oh, this is what it's coming to—another Waterloo
You wanna put me underground 'cause I'm overused
Giving up as you're pulling me down
I will make you come unglued
You can cover me in subtleties—what an effigy
I can fake it, 'cause you'll never be real to me
I'm innocent—I know I'm near the end
But if I can't understand, I will never win
[Pre-Chorus]
The more I know my mind
The more I leave you all behind
Living in the shadow of doubt
I'll never obey, but I'll always decide
[Chorus]
All my hopes survive—I've got to do it alone
I will burn alive in the House of Gold and Bones
[Verse 2]
Oh, you're the epitome of all the shit in me
And I'm surrounded by the people I will never be
Either way, I've got nothing to prove
To a son of a bitch like you
Well, this is hell, and I wanted it, but I'm an idiot
It's a phase, 'cause I know I'm illegitimate
[Bridge]
Kill it—I want to see it
I want to feel it—I won't be here forever
[Pre-Chorus]
The more I know my mind
The more I leave you all behind
Living in the shadow of doubt
I'll never obey, and I'll always decide
[Chorus]
All my hopes survive—I've got to do it alone
I will burn alive in the House of Gold and Bones
[Solo]
[Pre-Chorus]
The more I know my mind
The more I leave this world behind
Living in the shadow of doubt
I'm already gone, I'm already alive
[Chorus]
All my hopes survive—I've got to do it alone
I will burn alive in the House of Gold and Bones
All my hopes survive—I've got to do it alone
I will burn alive in the House of Gold and Bones
[Outro]
In the House of Gold and Bones
In the House of Gold and Bones
RU486! RU486! RU486! RU486! RU486!
