Play . . .
. . . your little game of self-importance
Show us just how wonderful you are
Dazzle with deception all the minions
Who have placed their trust in you
So innocent so true
Have you never placed yourself in someone else's shoes
Have you never tried to see their point of view
You're thorough to ensure that everything will go your way
Would you like them all to do the same to you
So now I find you don't want to look me in the eye
I hope I never sympathize with things you do
in the unrelenting interest of you
Back in school they taught us to be civil
Treat each other how you'd like to be
Even though you'd like to think you're special
We're the same both you and me
Have you ever tried to focus and just see
So now I find you don't want to look me in the eye
I hope I never sympathize with things you do
in the unrelenting interest of you
Walk a mile in someone else's shoes to know
Exactly how they feel
You might think the world owes you a favor but
It's still not right to steal
Please believe you me I'm not that sterling
Everyone does things they can regret
Even in the noblest you will find
Humanity will cause diversion from the truest path
But now I find you don't want to look me in the eye
I hope I never sympathize with things you do
in the unrelenting interest of you
Relentless
