It seems like right from the moment of your birth
Someone's been needing to bring you down to earth
Lost up in your atmosphere of self entitlement
That broken halo on your head is hardly heaven-sent
You go on pretending that you own the universe
and we'll all be here watching as you're falling down to earth
Won't matter how high you climb
When rules of gravity apply
Won't matter how hard you've tried
When your ego and earth collide
You're falling Down to Earth
Look down on those with their fingers in the dirt
We look up and see that your own life is inert
Sidetracked by your self-important Babel-building schemes
But broken wings won't let you fly above all your broken dreams
Deactivating
Accelerating
Disintegrating
Detonating
