World of Shame - Ego Likeness

The house is colder now

The stars are winking out

One by one these stones destroy

The walls of cities by the shore

The best-laid plans of men and rats

In the darkness I see traps

(In this world of shame)

We will not be consumed

(In this world of shame)

We will not be torn down

(In this world of shame)

We will not be misled

(In this world of shame)

We will not fall

One by one he leads the little ones away

One by one he leads the little crowd astray

The best-kept secrets thrive

In the darkest corners of the darkest lives

The best-laid plans of thieves and rats

In the darkness I see traps

The heart is colder now

The lights are dying out

One by one the fleets destroy

The walls of cities by the shore

Through the darkness kings walk past

Wandering into my traps
