Given my understanding of the weather I never thought that May could be so cold I never thought you’d be with us forever But it tore us up to watch the end unfold I can’t curl up and die despite the cold that still remains And yes I am a student of the game I know all too well of death No one is to blame but nothing is the same When it’s time to lay our own to rest I can’t curl up and die despite the cold that still remains I know far too much about death This cold remains I can’t hide This cold retained Aspiring someday to forget I can’t curl up and die despite the cold that is retained

Your fear is a weapon against you They wield it all too well Tragically misled This farce will surely be your end These lies are a weapon against you They wield them all too well Relentlessly misled You’ll bear these scars on your head Did it feel like you turned to steel When you became the edge of the blade? Did you feel yourself cease to feel When you locked the door to your own cage? Did it feel like you turned to steel When you became the tip of the spear? Did you sense the forking of your tongue? These lies as a weapon you wield You know them all too well Willingly misled You’ve become the threat you fear Did it feel like you turned to steel When you became the edge of the blade? Did you feel yourself cease to feel When you locked the door to your own cage? Did it feel like you turned to steel When you became the tip of the spear? Did you sense the forking of your tongue? Fair to say that we had blind spots at the time Undercurrents and tides Cling for dear life Fair to say circumstance has pried open eyes Undercurrents and tides Cling to those lies These lies as a weapon you wield We know them all too well Refuse to be misled You’ve become the threat that you feared You are the threat you fear Cling to life Cling to lies Fear as Currency Taste the poison, it fills your mouth Taste like poison, you’re getting to like it now Your eyes can’t decide Taste the poison, it hits your veins Taste the poison, repeat these refrains Your eyes can’t decide Spin these lies: disseminate disseminate Recite these words: decimate decimate Repeat them now with a dash of truth You become them and they become you Your eyes can’t decide Taste the poison, it clouds your eyes Taste the poison, until you lose your mind Your eyes can’t decide Your eyes Wear them down and separate separate Recite these words: indoctrinate indoctrinate Repeat them now with a dash of truth You become them and they become you Finally fear is all you know in time it takes its toll Finally fear is all you know and you surrender control Finally fear is all that’s left what a sorry way to waste your last breath Finally fear is all you know this fear is all you know Fear is at the heart of this Traitors Become the poison

This den of thieves so comically corrupt Too fucking on the nose to be believed And yet you bow to them, kowtow to them Remaining blissfully deceived Knuckles gnarled fingers broken trusting in a hate unspoken And those rewards for all your toil? Choosing champions so depraved they’d steal the stone from off your grave, You’ve handed over all your spoils It’s treachery they try to hide This treachery I won’t abide It’s treachery they try to hide This treachery I won’t abide This den of fucking thieves Too inhumane to be believed And yet you bow to them, kowtow to them Remaining blissfully deceived So desperate to keep what’s yours you couldn’t see straight anymore Now you’ll have to pay the price You hired a fox to guard the henhouse and acted shocked at how it turned out And I cannot freight surprise at This double deal, This grift, This long con, This dirty trick Thieves, and targets on our back Thieves, till we start fighting back

Taste the poison, it fills your mouth Taste like poison, you’re getting to like it now Your eyes can’t decide Taste the poison, it hits your veins Taste the poison, repeat these refrains Your eyes can’t decide Spin these lies: disseminate disseminate Recite these words: decimate decimate Repeat them now with a dash of truth You become them and they become you Your eyes can’t decide Taste the poison, it clouds your eyes Taste the poison, until you lose your mind Your eyes can’t decide Your eyes Wear them down and separate separate Recite these words: indoctrinate indoctrinate Repeat them now with a dash of truth You become them and they become you Finally fear is all you know in time it takes its toll Finally fear is all you know and you surrender control Finally fear is all that’s left what a sorry way to waste your last breath Finally fear is all you know this fear is all you know Fear is at the heart of this Traitors Become the poison
