Lyrics
Always playing the martyr
Always portraying oneself as a victim
Devoid of power on a solitary throne
Lacking authority while sitting on a lonely throne
Commanding unheard orders
Issuing commands that go unheard
Defiant and alone
Rebellious and isolated
Impressive no longer
No longer impressive
Enlightened allies have left you in the cold
Allies who once understood have abandoned you
Abandoned and delusional
Left alone and holding false beliefs
It's just you against the world
Facing the world with only yourself
Welcome to your nightmare
Entering a nightmarish situation
Now exposed and waging war
Exposed and actively fighting
Welcome to your nightmare
Continuing in the nightmare
You're no messiah in a crown of thorns
Not a savior, despite wearing a crown of thorns
Lost in denial
Refusing to accept the truth
Pitiful and entangled in distress
Pitiable and deeply entangled in trouble
Trapped in the 11th hour
Trapped at the last possible moment
much too late to confess
Too late to admit wrongdoing
Potential paths to freedom
Potential paths to freedom no longer exist
Sturdy bridges now charred black and collapsed
Once solid bridges now destroyed
Each one a sentence
Each path is a judgment or consequence
Set ablaze by your own hands
Destroyed by one's own actions
Welcome to your nightmare
Continuing in a nightmarish situation
Now exposed and waging war
Exposed and actively fighting
Welcome to your nightmare
Continuing in the nightmare
You're no messiah in a crown of thorns
Not a savior, despite wearing a crown of thorns
Deceptive and charming
Being deceptive and charming
A well-played disguise
A well-executed facade
The spider is dying
The one who deceives is suffering
Caught up in its own web of lies
Caught in a web of lies of their own creation
Plays the martyr
Continuing to play the victim
Now exposed
Now revealed for who you truly are
Waging war
Actively engaged in conflict
A crown of thorns
Wearing a crown of thorns
Always playing the martyr
Persistently portraying oneself as a victim
You've made your bed
Facing the consequences of one's actions
Now lie in it
Accepting the results of one's choices
Welcome to your nightmare
Entering a nightmarish situation
Now exposed and waging war
Exposed and actively fighting
Welcome to your nightmare
Continuing in the nightmare
You're no messiah in a crown of thorns
Not a savior, despite wearing a crown of thorns
Always playing the martyr
Persistently portraying oneself as a victim
Wear your crown of thorns
Wearing a crown of thorns as a symbol of suffering
