The Structure

The pressure is building

And they are to see

The scaffolds are rising

And it's all about me

The bricks they are missing

Mortar can't be found

But still it's towering

And the structure seems sound

The fissures are spreading

Focused eyes can't see

The structure collapsing

And it's all about me

The fortunes dwindling

The coffers are bare

There's no more offering

For the structure's not there

The pressure keeps building

They finally see

The structure's a hoax and

It was all about me
