Concrete

You're the one that puts words into poetry.
You're the one that turns prose into song.
You're the one that cries out loud in his sleep;
the one that wished he was alone all along.

This is the ending of a tragic tale.
This is what we all looked so hard for.
This is the conclusion where every hero fails.
This is why no one ever looks forward.

Watch as the flies fall like dominoes in the sun.
Look around at all the havoc that you spun.
Watch their jaws drop in horrified astonishment,
then laugh as you burn all that you established.

This is the conclusion to our little story.
This is what we hid from for so long.
This is the ending of fortune and glory.
This is the part where everything's gone.

Look around at crushed buildings in your mind.
Watch as they all leave, each hand with a gun.
Sit on the cracked sidewalk and cry 'til you find -
you were the agent of your own destruction.
