I'm the fire at your feet and I know what you run from
Today you’re gonna be someone
Sights set on your soul and the price is a lifetime
And don’t you want to be someone?

We love everything, beautiful lies
Close up your heart and then stitch up your eyes
Paint on the mask, find your plastic disguise
Sell us your conscience, and then never mind

Always the moth but never the flame

Obey, Don’t you wanna be saved?
Don’t you want to be someone?
Obey, Don’t you wanna be changed?
Don’t you want to be someone?

I'm the reaper of change and you’ll get what you came for
A dream inside of a nightmare
Is there trauma to use or maybe we could create one?
We’d like to give you a platform

Be my false idol, I’ll make you a God
Kill your morality, take what you want
Paint on the mask, find your plastic disguise
Sell us your conscience, and then never mind

Always the moth but never the flame

Obey, Don’t you wanna be saved?
Don’t you want to be someone?
Obey, Don’t you wanna be changed?
Don’t you want to be someone?

It’s all so dangerous these games we play
Don't you wanna be someone?
It’s all so dangerous, so dangerous
Don't you wanna be someone?

Obey, Don’t you wanna be saved?
Don’t you want to be someone?
Obey, Don’t you wanna be saved?
Don’t you want to be someone?

Always the moth but never the flame
Leading the war, but never to blame

Obey, Don’t you wanna be saved?
Don’t you wanna be someone?
It’s all so dangerous these games we play
Don't you wanna be someone?
It’s all so dangerous, so dangerous
Don't you wanna be someone?
