You change your mind while stabbing my back
You find that hysterical idea to achieve the advantage
You came at me with swords of the past
You made me tremble with bitter courage
You sold my self-esteem for popularity
You made those allies at my expense
"You didn't mean it, it's all a dream"
I told myself while the crowds surrounds me
You schemed to make peace
A peace corrupted by conspiracy
A peace proven unacceptable
That war has turned cold
That idea burned to dust
That building crumbled to ash
And I admit,
You are a smart person
Intelligence in the art of disguise
Showing the good
Erasing the bad
But the mark's still there
I see it, I know you do too
I can never do what you can
I can never let escape the envy in my heart
I can never wash out the taint in my soul
I can never breathe out the pollution
I can never be you
I want your puppet face to burn
But I can never be you
I want your kingdom to crumble
But I am not a conquerer
I want your that pure skin to shed
But then I will be empty
I want you to disappear
But I can never be you
