There's signs posted all around
|
take heed to the underworld
|
Sit back and relax as the plot unfolds
|
what you don't expect unfurls
|
You left your dignity
|
at the hands of the tip of your pen
|
Make something out of nothing
|
See what you're left with then
|
|
So let down, so frustrated
|
If you're looking to be loved
|
You're asking to be hated
|
|
Bound to the links, links of the chains
|
Bored sick of this episode of shame
|
|
How I've missed your blacklist
|
Beware of the unknown stranger
|
It's the price I pay; it's where I'll stay
|
You don't know me
|
|
How I've missed your blacklist
|
Beware of present danger
|
It's the price I pay; it's where I'll stay
|
You don't know me at all
|
|
No stranger to security
|
partisan to the criticized
|
How's that blacklist coming
|
Cross your T's, dot those I's
|
In the presents of all this wealth
|
a rash of moral poverty
|
Throw my beliefs under your microscope
|
Try to find what the eye can't see
|
|
So let down, so frustrated
|
If you're looking to be loved
|
You're asking to be hated
|
|
Bound to the links, links of the chains
|
Bored sick of this episode of shame
|
|
Here's a list of your punishments
|
One for every good deed
|
Pessimists make great activists
|
With built in enmity
|
|
The luxury of slander
|
Depends on who you trust
|
When your theories go up in smoke
|
Ash to ash dust to dust
|
