Consider the odds, consider the obvious, the martyr is meaningless,
the campaign has died. In the planning stages and the fallen faces,
are the singular proof that it was ever alive.
This purchased rebellion has been outdated, denounced and rescinded
and left to die, championless, championless, championless
(bar mute ) (bar mute )
I begged you not to go, I begged you, I pleaded.
(bar mute ) (bar mute )
Claimed you as my only hope, and watched the floor as you retreated.
(bar mute ) (bar mute )
I begged you not to go, I begged you, I pleaded.
(bar mute ) (bar mute )
Claimed you as my only hope, and watched the floor as you retreated.
Hope has sprung a perfect dive, a perfect day, a perfect lie
A slowly crafted monologue conceding your defeat.
This purchased rebellion has been outdated, denounced and rescinded
and left to die, championless, championless, championless
(bar mute ) (bar mute )
I begged you not to go, I begged you, I pleaded.
(bar mute ) (bar mute )
Claimed you as my only hope, and watched the floor as you retreated.
(bar mute ) (bar mute )
I begged you not to go, I begged you, I pleaded.
(bar mute ) (bar mute )
Claimed you as my only hope, and watched the floor as you retreated.

Does it comfort you to know you fought the good fight?
Basking in your victory, hollow and alone
to boast your bitter bragging rights to anyone who'll listen
While you're left with nothing tangible to gain
