Don't talk to me about justice, freedom, truth and
Democracy
When all you left me were false hopes, lies, empty
Promises
Now you're crying betrayal, demanding attention and
Sympathy
You forget your own treason, your actions and the
Consequences
Of your selfish behaviour, don't make out that you're the
Innocent party!
You played the cards you were dealt with unwisely; you
Didn't listen to me
You tried to bluff once too often, you were called out
Cheating in the first degree
Just a sheep in wolf's clothing, a cowboy, a charlatan a
Chevalier
A naive knave among princes you weren't quite what you
Appeared to be!
Now all you see is all you get; it's in your face, nowhere else left to hide
Just face the truth and face the facts you're on your own, no one left on your side
You blame it all on the system you worked in you helped to
Perpetuate
You sold out all of your secrets; you sold short all your big
Ideas
You were flying too high not a care in the world you thought that you'd never come down; You forgot all the rules, lost sight of the ground Didn't think that you ever could fall, A fool on the wing flew too close to the sun; you burned out and dropped out the sky, And everyone stared but did anyone care no-one remembers your name
Now you can't trust your own instincts, you don't know
Who or what to believe
You were blind in the spotlight you reached out for
Conspiracies
There's times you feel you lost your mind, you've lost control the very will to survive
Just pick yourself up of the ground, get dusted down, and get back in the fight
You were flying too high not a care in the world you
Thought that you'd never come down;
You forgot all the rules, lost sight of the ground
Didn't think that you ever could fall
A fool on the wing flew too close to the sun; you burned
Out and dropped out the sky
And everyone stared but did anyone care
No one remembers your name
Now that you're down to your last hope, the long shot, now
You're down on your knees
Begging me for one last chance, one more golden
Opportunity
And all you see is all you get; it's in your face, nowhere else left to hide
Just face the truth and face the facts you're on your own, no one left on your side
You once had the World at your feet but your conscience
Wandered in clouds
You lost sight of your goals; your vision was blurred when
The towers one day disappeared
Everyone stared, no one believed as the images burned on
Our screens
That a world had just changed, the dream evaporates, no
More innocent parties!
