They say the third time's the charm
Work your magic on us
Your illusions are a grand escape
Visionless mind to disarm
Was it all just a bust
Don't just stand there with your mouth agape
Act and the masses bow down
Never finding your faults
Oh how splendid, so magnificent
But should they worship your crown
When your mind's at a halt
Just your presence seems it's sufficient
Oh hear these words you would rue to forget
Constant eyes watching your every move
Useless to run, now, your maker is met
When you're set up to fail what you proved
I've lost all my sense of self
Take my identity
Make and sell me, I am yours to sink
Watch me as I move through hell
Drown in subversity
Idolize me, I'm your missing link
Capture by my sleight of hand
Now you're under my command
Looks like things turned out as planned
Glorify those you love on high
You stand in your disbelief
Have you sold out your soul
Seas of faces now assault your eyes
Longing for normalized grief
Circling out of control
No direction, time to improvise
