I can see your lips are moving…
But don’t care what you say…
You use your words like weapons…
Destroying all that you survey…
You make people feel anxious…
Try to make them feel so small…
But your power trip is useless…
And from a dizzy height you’ll fall…
I don’t respect who you are…
And I don’t care what you do…
If you were on fire in front of me…
I wouldn’t begin to try and help you…
Because I see right through your act…
You’re not who you claim to be…
I have witnessed your vicious side…
Perhaps I’m the only one who can see…
That you’re so evil and so vile…
Yet people fall for all your charm…
You cast a spell upon them all…
Somehow they all simply swarm…
And fall right before your feet…
As you stand proud and tall…
Looking down your nose upon them…
Without giving a damn at all…
Your smile is false and painted…
You grin through gritted teeth…
You patronise, they don’t realise…
That you’re a fucking soul thief…
One day, I swear, I’ll reveal you…
One day your empire will collapse…
One day you will feel my fucking wrath…
One day you’ll fall into my trap…
Because I have made it my mission…
You alone are in my sights…
I will bring you to your fucking knees…
And I will haunt your days and nights…
I can see your lips are moving…
But am not listening to what you say…
Because the time has come for me to act…
And avenge everyone you’ve betrayed…
