[Verse 1]
Put up your barricades, there's money to be made
Continue your charade, money to be made

[Chorus 1]
What you're asking for means the world to me
You draw close as you whisper, "Precisely"
"Precisely"

[Verse 2]
Your safety is assured, behind those eggshell walls of yours
Your safety is assured, behind those eggshell walls of yours

[Chorus 2]
Friends and family glide by on wings of faith
Faithlessly, I don't recognize a face
Not a single face

[Bridge]
Take this sorry soul, made enough of a mess on my own
On my own

[Outro]
Put up your barricades, there's money to be made
