You are always on the spot
And you never change your cut
You obliterated every single one
Inside your squad
Do your job until you die
Your apartment's on the line
There is always just a tiny thing
You find about your time
Little things that you enjoy
Like a wacky brittle toy
All you ever really wanted
Was a life you can destroy
You're a puppet on a string
Setting fire to your friends
You can suffer as you like
Unless you're on a morning shift
You're just a stranger to yourself now
You're just a stranger to me
Take a coffee break at noon
Like you're living in a toon
You wish everyone applauded
As you're entering the room
But there's no one to be found
Go ahead and take a walk
They don't actually agree with you
They just don't wanna talk
So intentional and smart
You're the one they put in charge
But according to your résumé
You've never been a star
Like the people on your screen
Cuz you're nowhere to be seen
There has always been a part of you
That wanted to be me
You're just a stranger to yourself now
You're just a stranger to me
No means to ever hold a hand
No fiends to abuse you again
No war is ever to occur
No weakness in the land of the pure
No harm to any of your plants
Your life is gonna stay the same
Insane
