All those nights when I screamed
Captured in security, a babbling brook
Let's drop a bomb and act like fools


But a true feast arises when you're done
And you're done when prospects are gone


Cause when you're down in the mud cause
Dreams won't come, pleasure is gone
What did you do wrong
And you're trying to gain the fortune
And fame of the ones you admire, don't
Try to remain. Security is just a game
