Now is the time, so gather your strength for the ride
This tale is to teach you the dangers that rest inside
A lust for the power provided by fame

"You can never stop us
We'll never have enough
The world will always fear us
The only key is fame fame fame
Don't ever try to save us
We'll prove we're always man enough
Look how they always chase us
All we need is fame fame fame."

Innocence turned its head at 19 as the two screamed,
"Don't try to save us
We'll prove we're man enough
Look how they chase us
All we need is fame fame fame"

You follow all the moths that chase the light you hold so high
You're carving up your soul to feed the distance of your flight
With every cut they lift you up
With every cut they lift you up

21 counts of murder and the public eye
She swings wide to open her arms and welcome the bribe
Behold, these are the monsters we've conjured
And they've both got to die

Let them rot
Let them rot
Let them rot

These are only a few for the list marches on
This fame is a drug and the addicts our gods.
But we measure their doses and give them a flame
So the charge is on us; we are the dealers of fame

You follow all the moths that chase the light you hold so high
Your carving up your soul to feed the distance of your flight
With every cut they lift you up
With every cut they lift you up
