My home destroyed, we had our chance Alien to some, god to others Compelled to be a savior to an ungrateful earth I'll be the monument Taken away from a dying world The last of a fallen race This planet is not my own I don't belong here, but you are not alone My home destroyed, we had our chance Alien to some, god to others Compelled to be a savior to an ungrateful earth I'll be the monument So I accept mankind as my people Yet they reject me out of fear Now my existence is sin Why do they fear, and hate, what they don't understand? I can be the martyr when I need to be I bow to no one, you don't control me I can be the devil in the sky But I'm not the enemy I answer to no man I don't owe you anything Alien to some, god to others An ungrateful earth I'll be the monument My home destroyed, we had our chance Alien to some, god to others Compelled to be a savior to an ungrateful earth I'll be the monument Misunderstood symbol of hope You are not alone I don't belong here You are not alone I don't belong here You are not alone I don't belong here

I have nothing left to lose Let me be done and join you I’d give, I’d give anything, to be with you in the castle in the sky I have nothing left to lose Let me be done and join you I’d give, I’d give anything, to be with you in the castle in the sky This isn’t vengeance, this is punishment And you will come to know me well Everything I loved was ripped from my hands in a carousel of bloodshed Their blood soaked in the ground, what would you have done? My life, family, taken from me Hopeless, empty, left with nothing Tragedy has lead to violence And now I’m killing my way to justice I’m not a hero, I’m a reminder A white skull to show I am the monster I would take every life to save yours Am I destroying my pain or myself? I’d give, I’d give anything, to be with you in the castle in the sky [Solo] Shaped by war, but now the war is within This is just a different war zone Maybe it’s who I’ve always been This isn’t vengeance, this is punishment I would take every life to save yours Am I destroying my pain or myself? I’d give, I’d give anything, to be with you in the castle in the sky I have nothing left to lose Let me be done and join you [Breakdown] This is punishment This is punishment No! (God’s gonna sit this one out) I’ve lost everything This is punishment I’ve lost everything This is punishment
