Glass Elevators from Foundations by Engineering An Empire

Sitting alone
Pulling out my teeth
I nail my confidence to the wall
Ahead of my time
Or just ahead of myself
Standards set so high
They drag me up like a noose around my neck
Paranoia cuts my rope
I'm on my last line
Caught in this vessel of anxiety
I will fall in just due time
Please don't cry
They'll be waiting
Please don't cry
They'll be waiting
For you
Caught in this glass elevator
Blindly passing the world
Every floor a new goal a new goddamn dream
And I won't stop
I can't stop
I can't
Iron out the wrinkles in my brain
Because I'd rather be hopeless
Then live a life I can't accept
Please don't cry
They'll be waiting
Please don't cry
They'll be waiting
