[Verse 1]
Count backwards from ten, and you'll see the change
Except in your heart, it's sadly the same
If you were the Queen, who would you choose for a king?
Or would you rather be free, or like a dog on a chain?
I'm not so sure all things are as you say

[Chorus]
Nothing's going fast enough tonight
Nothing's gonna feed your appetite
All the lights are on, it comforts no one but your silhouette
Nothings gonna keep you satisfied
Though a million boys would love to try
Build new cages, but the beast rules every corner of your life

[Verse 2]
I can see it coming over you
You've got your eyes on sharpened knives
I can see it coming over you
You'll turn your friends to alibis
I can see it, it's inside of you
I heard it in your voice last night
I can see it coming over you
You've got your eyes on sharpened knives
And it's cutting your life lines
[Chorus]
Nothing's going fast enough tonight
Nothing's gonna feed your appetite
All the lights are on, it comforts no one but your silhouette
Nothings gonna keep you satisfied
Though a million boys would love to try
Build new cages, but the beast rules every corner of your life

[Bridge]
Perfect, it'd be perfect, just to forget yourself
Wretched melodies call you from the deep
When you should be sleeping
Want becomes a need as you feel the beast;
Sacrifice your freedom
Wretched melodies call you from the deep
When you should be sleeping
And they know, your name
And they know, your name
