Paroles de I'm Taking It Back, I'm Taking Them All Back

You'll never hear the end of this You'll never see the likes of me And everything that I expected Isn't what I thought it'd be If I had the time to stop and think I'm settled or is this a dream? Its greener on the other side But nothings ever what it seems Brick by brick I've built this up for you Today's empires will be tomorrow's ashes I've lived by your example Died with my ideals I've laid to rest 10 years of where I've been I'm taking back what wasn't yours in the first place You'll never see a glimpse of it again What exactly did you have in mind? What direction we going in? You told me to reach for the sun When I did it only burned my skin Now I'm going to put this back Together, slowly piece by piece I salvaged what I had in hand And let go what I couldn't keep Brick by brick I've built this up for you Today's empires will be tomorrow's ashes I've lived by your example Died by my ideals I've laid to rest 10 years of where I've been I'm taking back what wasn't yours in the first place You'll never see a glimpse of it again This time it's on my terms Whatever happens here At least I can see myself Even though it isn't clear Uncertain of what comes next I like it better that way I've lived by your example Died by my ideals I've laid to rest 10 years of where I've been Now I'm taking back what wasn't yours in the first place You'll never see a glimpse of it again
