Vicious Circle

You tear my soul apart By any means with wicked schemes, cut deep The way that you contrive Makes me wonder how you ever sleep Still, I held out every chance You'd come back to your senses But that path was filled with smoke To prove what you intended I stand against you as you rage My fate has struck your gilded cage I knew you'd bite and hurt us Vicious circle A parody of truth is mirrored in the mask You chose to wear With empathy so numb You never felt the lives that you despair Master of hypocrisy Who dislocates my reason Through constant lies that you implant This manifest of treason Provoked to go to any length I'll use up every ounce of strength And break the chain that binds this Vicious circle Still, I held out every chance You'd come back to your senses But that path was filled with smoke To prove what you intended I stand against you as you rage My fate has struck your gilded cage I knew you'd bite and hurt us Vicious circle
