Watch You Burn

I didn't mean to give my soul away

To have the life I thought that everybody wants

And I need to let you know I was wrong

It's a sham

They stole my heart and took control away

And when I lost the life that everybody wants

Will you'd think they'd help you out

But they don't give a damn

They lift you up

(You might feel it, but don't believe it)

You take your turn

(You'll see it, when you achieve it)

They light that spark

(You can't fight it)

Then sit back and watch you burn

They lift you up

(You might feel it, but don't believe it)

Give you your task

(You'll see it, when you achieve it)

When your world goes dark

(You can't hide it)

They'll just smile and watch you burn

You can't believe a single word they say

You tried to have the life that everybody wants

Pretty soon you'll figure out that you don't

It's a scam

You're torn apart, and then you're thrown away

And you become the one that everybody talks

By then there's no way out

It's all part of the plan

They lift you up

(You might feel it, but don't believe it)

You take your turn

(You'll see it, when you achieve it)

They light that spark

(You can't fight it)

Then sit back and watch you burn

They lift you up

(You might feel it, but don't believe it)

Give you your task

(You'll see it, when you achieve it)

When your world goes dark

(You can't hide it)

They'll just smile and watch you burn

They lift you up

You take your turn

(You'll see it, when you achieve it)

They light that spark

(You can't fight it)

Then sit back and watch you burn

They lift you up

(You might feel it, but don't believe it)

Give you your task

(You'll see it, when you achieve it)

When your world goes dark

(You can't hide it)

They'll just smile and watch you burn
