So this is what you mean?
When you said that you were spent
And now it's time to build
From the bottom of the pit right to the top
Don't look back
Packing my bags and giving the academy a rain-check
I don't ever want to let you down
I don't ever want to leave this town
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night

It's time to begin, isn't it, I get a little bit
Bigger, but then, I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
Oh, don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

So this is where you fell
And I am left to sell
Your path to heaven runs through miles of clouded hell, right to the top
Don't look back
Turning to rags and give the commodities a rain-check
I don't ever want to let you down
I don't ever want to leave this town
'Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night

It's time to begin, isn't it, I get a little bit
Bigger, but then, I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
Oh, don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

It's time to begin, isn't it, I get a little bit
Bigger, but then, I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
Oh, don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

This road never looked so lonely
This house doesn't burn down slowly
To ashes, to ashes

It's time to begin, isn't it, I get a little bit
Bigger, but then, I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

It's time to begin, isn't it, I get a little bit
Bigger, but then, I'll admit, I'm just the same as I was
Don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am
