Beacons

I will be taking care of business

I'll run it all into the ground

I'll pay my debts and walk away from this

Careless hearts and their cellist hands come deep as outs

They can't save us now

And I won't be made to take this

Stupid ending then the eye

I held the world on my shoulder

I had the public on my side

And I will take this bitter pill

As I would swallow my pride

And I'll take everything

That you hold dear

And I will try to feel something

As I chew upon your fears

When the beacons burn, the lights go out

I will know my work is done

I would give credit if it would you

You build your house on shifting sands and watched your garden as it grew

Eyes down, no questions asked

Or the devil really will find work for idle hands to do

And I won't be made to take this

Stupid ending then the eye

I held the world on my shoulder

I had the public on my side

And I will take this bitter pill

As I would swallow my pride

And I'll take everything

That you hold dear

And I will try to feel something

As I chew upon your fears

When the beacons burn, the lights go out

I will know my work is done

There is no more, than this ending

That I can give to you

There is no more than this ending

There is nothing more at all

There is no more, than this ending

That I can give to you

There is no more than this ending

There is nothing more at all
