The tragedy of reality
Where the lead roles
Are played by those
Who lack morality
Smoke and mirrors
A fancy title is all it takes
To cover up their mistakes
And make you think the sky is clear
In the shadows
Of their towering lies
You're suffocating
Under their disguise
Promises made
But all betrayed
Their poisoned authority
Won't fade away
Copy and paste
Everything stays the same
In this game of power and fame
You're a piece that can be replaced
In the shadows
Of their towering lies
You're suffocating
Under their disguise
Promises made
But all betrayed
Their poisoned authority
Won't fade away
No, they're here to stay
Tomorrow and today
No, they won't fade away
Until you realize
You're the one who keeps them alive
It's time to pull the plug
And see them close their eyes
Let's go
In the shadows
Of their towering lies
You're suffocating
Under their disguise
Promises made
But all betrayed
Their poisoned authority
Won't fade away
In the distance you can hear them
Scream for help but it's too late
Their voices fall on deaf ears
You have sealed their fate
With the dawn a new day breaks
One without their masquerade
