A Matter of Time

(I should have seen the signs)
 (It was only just a matter of time)
 (I should have seen the signs)
 (It was only just a matter of time)
 Standing in ruins blinded by another meteor
 I never even saw it coming down just like all the ones before
 The irony of the conveniency of things made up in your head
 Inflate, fixate while you suffocate
 Every promise that you've ever made
 The saddest tale
 I'll never tell
 Will echo through
 The halls of hell
 An eon lost
 The countless cost
 Need your next victim to malign
 It was only just a matter of time
 I've watched you do unto others
 As you've imagined they've done to you
 And your pride has come before the
 Fall and your downfall is believing all
 Your fantasies are true
 I should have heard the warnings
 I should have seen the signs
 As you did unto them you'd do to me,
 Your true nature would show eventually
 It was just a matter of time, a matter of time
 ♪
 The ring of empty words, a string of dead intentions
 Moments strewn across a timeline, you've deleted every one
 I watched you over years make a career of making enemies
 I was so dumb to think you wouldn't be
 The one to turn your weapon against me
 The saddest tale
 I'll never tell
 Will echo through
 The halls of Hell
 An eon lost
 The countless cost
 Need your next victim to malign
 It was only just a matter of time
 I've watched you do unto others
 As you've imagined they've done to you
 And your pride has come before the
 fall and your downfall is believing all
 Your fantasies are true
 I should have heard the warnings
 I should have seen the signs
 As you did unto them you'd do to me,
 Your true nature would show eventually
 It was just a matter of time, a matter of time!

 This is my last goodbye, my epitaph for you
 False pretense of integrity, you believed your lies were true
 And this could be the saddest tale I'll never tell
 Evanescently will echo through the halls of hell
