Description Who have you serenaded?
Who is worthy of your praises?
Whose torch would you carry
to the ends of the Earth?
Whose dreams would you birth?
And will they save us now?

I dare you to hold steady
To the lights and the confetti
To your drugs and your belief
To your fantasy of me

I'll be that apparition
Of your misconstrued ambition
I will make you see-through
And I will scare the hell out of you

To who will you surrender?
Whose voice will make you tender?
And will it be long before you realize
that through all the time your carelessness buys,
It'll sell you out in the end?
And fear may be your sole remaining friend.

But I dare you to hold on
Until the party guests are gone
To another sad distraction
Your easiest reaction

I'll be that apparition
Of your misconstrued ambition
I will make you see-through
And I will scare the hell out of you
I will scare the hell out of you
I will scare the hell out of you
I will scare the hell out of you

Whose memory would you bury,
whose corpse would you carry?
When the curtains fold, who will you resent?
Who will be your sole remaining friend?

WHOA! You're not dead.

It'll sell you out in the end?
And fear may be your sole remaining friend.

That second line, AH!!! Too long, metre wise. I like this though. Need to hear the song..

Hi. ^^ Yes, I have finally come out of remission.

That link actually takes you to the music! I swear, that line sounds normal in the song.
