The Setup

Viewing through this dark lens
You only see what they want you to see
Shot by shot, Framing the perfect picture
You watch as they play out the scene

No one suspects they're being played
But everyday it's just the same game
Can't trust your eyes or their lying lips
They've ensured their that grip won't slip

Is it all just a conspiracy in my head
I'm cast as the villain in this tragedy
They twist every word I ever said
Too question their verdict is blasphemy

Each paragraph carefully crafted lies
Like tasty morsels into core of the soul
Every one of their faults they do deny
You're not aware of your greatest role

Just one click to take the bait
The truth is just putty for them to manipulate
One of the fold, they have total control
Recite your lines, just doing what you're told

All just a conspiracy in my head
I'm cast as the villain in this tragedy
They twist every word I ever said
Too question their verdict is blasphemy

If their truth is a lie how can it set you free
If justice is perverted is it more than a mockery
Stream my execution, tune in to watch me bleed
It's too late for pardon, my head's on the guillotine

All just a conspiracy in my head
I'm cast as the villain in this tragedy
They twist every word I ever said
Too question their verdict is blasphemy
All just a conspiracy in my head
I'm cast as the villain in this tragedy
They twist every word I ever said
Too question their verdict is blasphemy
