For next to nothing spent turn your dollars into cents  
                  Dm      C5    Bb5 
fighting for the right to die alone 
  F     D7  Bb5                     F    D7  Bb5

          F                 D7                     Bb5 
forgotten heroes chessboard roles to make you think youre something more 

but youre on your own… 

 
  F   D7        Bb5 
Here I am with my empire, Ill bring you to your knees 
  F   D7        Bb5 
Ebb and flow with my desire, cause its all that youve been taught to be
