A meteoric rise to fame But fame falls apart The center could not hold you from the start What's ours to lose was yours to gain We were misled to play our part The fatal flaw that damned us from the start You pulled too tightly on the reins While you bled out our bleeding hearts But now I think it's time for us to part 'Cause when I scrutinized your claim Your story fell apart And now I know that you're to blame And the name of your counterpart I know that you were lying from the start 'Cause you went too far When I heard you say You say you own the stars But the stars will not obey They will not Obey A meteoric rise to fame But fame falls apart Knowing you were lying from the start And now I know that you're too blame For the dagger in my heart And now I'm gonna tear your world apart 'Cause you went too far When I heard you say You say you own the stars But the stars will not obey They will not obey

A vision, a blood line purified A madman, a population terrified Projection, infection, spreading from inside A doctor, the cure, double genocide There was no other way, he testified The incision, he claimed, was justified The procedure left the witnesses mortified Revision, the doctor’s name was modified (chorus) And all this time spent in this place is wasted time And all this time spent in this space has wasted mine Martyr! Martyr! You say you’re a martyr The fool who ignites the flame But it’s murder, it’s murder! I tell you, it’s murder! You’ve only yourself to blame The moment decided, you’d live to regret it The billions of people, you’ll never forget it The moment decided, you’d live to regret it The billions of people, you’ll never forget it! (chorus) And all this time, spent in this place, is wasted time And all this time, spent in this face, is wasted mind And all this time, spent in this place, is wasted time And all this time spent here is wasting mine Derision, a spiritual homicide Division, a long distance suicide Election, dissection, a great divide A doctor no more, double crucified (chorus) And all this time, spent in this place, is wasted time And all this time, spent in this face, is wasted mind And all this time, spent in this place, is wasted time And all this time spent here is wasting mine

The sound of thunder Is so hard to take The spell we’re under Is so hard to break The sound of thunder Has me wide awake As the world goes under Our future lives at stake Give me back my wonder I've something more to give… Don’t say it doesn’t matter There’s something more to live More to live

Another time, another place, another smile you showed me They cast a spell But now you hide, you hide your face, you hide the truth about me Hide in your shell You pass me by, without a trace, you’re in denial about me So long, fare well Another time, another place, you reconcile without me But you know me well (CHORUS) This is your Forewarning They’ll tell you that you know me well Another time another place, you’re on my side, you told me You said that you would follow me through hell Another time, another place, it’s all worthwhile, you told me As you left me in my prison cell A paradigm shift taking place at any time, you told me You should have listened to the warning bell A pantomime, a changing face, another lie you told me You know me well (CHORUS) This is your forewarning They will not treat you well They’ll blame you And they’ll shame you And they’ll tell you that you know me well Another time, another place, another smile you showed me You said that you would follow me through hell Another time, another place, Another lie you told me You left me rotting in my prison cell Another time, another place, you reconcile without me I should have listened to the warning bell Another time, another place, you're in denial about me But you know me well (CHORUS) This is your Last Warning This is your path to Hell They'll own you And they'll stone you And they'll tell you that you know me well
