You’re getting by, you play it cool
You’re clearing out all that is best, a threat to you
Thread’s in your mind, cut it soon
Set your path without the traces
You found your mark, in for the kill
There is no hiding, face it
Watch your guard, that is the thrill
So, you’ve just made yourself the fool
It’s what you say now
Why don’t you leave us alone?
So, you should blame somebody soon
It’s what you do best yeah
It’s always the same.
Must be hard here at your throne
The king at last and no one knows but you alone
Wore out your ties with everyone
Your contradictions prevail, a favorite to no one at all
