[Lyrics by Geoff Tate]
|
|
You think you're smart, inventive
|
Because you've figured out my game?
|
Pride is a handy substitute,
|
When you've got only yourself to blame.
|
All my dreams I've realized while you... were indisposed.
|
While you've spent eighteen years watching TV,
|
I've watched my fortune grow.
|
|
Here I am-I'm finally on the outside and
|
You're nowhere near where I've been!
|
I've got you where I want you... at last.
|
You've got no idea who I am!
|
We circle around each other waiting for reaction
|
We circle around each other waiting for reaction
|
Wanting satisfaction for the past.
|
I want nothing... from the past.
|
|
Always been so easy you're like a puppet on my string,
|
Throwing down hollow threats, unsure of what to think.
|
Why should I care?
|
You wouldn't dare!
|
You're nothing but worthless... I swear.
|
|
From where I stand I've got you where I want you.
|
You'll never take me! Never take me down!
|
I've seen all I need to put you in the ground
|
Revenge is normal, a typical reaction
|
I've seen your cynical reaction...
|
If you're standing outside of in.
|
Always on the outside of in.
|
|
Here we are at last facing oblivion...
|
And this is where finally it ends.
|
You don't belong here.
|
Holding fast to each of our sins.
|
With hope by my side, I'll survive to see the dawn.
|
Believe me or not... you owe me.
|
I owe you nothing!
|
I gave your life a purpose!
|
I owe you nothing but your death!
|
Without me you would have learned nothing!
|
