Lyrics

   You gave us what we wished for
   A few tangled strings attached
   Pull back the curtain
   I won't suffer for your amusement
   There's no more dreams for me to sell
   I choose my nightmares wisely
   Don't wanna ruin the story
   but it doesn't turn out well
   
   You will always be entertained
   Everybody showed up
   for the execution
   But nobody would
   show their face
   To shoot you in
   The back of the head
   And call it sacrifice
   They don't deserve
   to even say your name
   
   Put me inside the animal
   Stitch it up and shove us off a cliff
   When they tear the wings
   From all the swine
   Just monkeys will be left to fly
   Pilot light has flickered out
   and all the ashes will be screaming
   No one can hear my last words
   And no encore once we say goodbye
   
   You will always be entertained
   
   Everybody showed up
   for the execution
   But nobody would
   show their face
   To shoot you in
   The back of the head
   And call it sacrifice
   They don't deserve
   to even say your name
   
   Assassination
   Assassination
   
   Everybody showed up
   for the execution
   But nobody would
   show their face
   To shoot you in
   The back of the head
   And call it sacrifice
   They don't deserve
   to even say your name
   
   Sacrifice
   It's not a sacrifice
   It's not a sacrifice
