Is This What You Wanted?

I'm not afraid of you, it's the other way around
I'm your worst nightmare, I'll bring you to the ground
Look at my face, I could see past your disguise
Look into my eyes, I could see through all your lies
Tired of seeing people act like someone they're not
One false move, and that mask will burn up and rot
You are dancing with the Devil now, is this what you wanted?
The power, money, and fame came, but at what cost?
Every time you close your eyes now, you'll see the color red
You're alone in your thoughts, confused, and lost

All these envious demons, who you thought were once angels
Only take up all your energy and wanna see you fall
Who are you? Why do you wanna be my friend, stranger?
They all keep coming as I'm trapped against the wall

Go out with the same simulated smile
While dying on the inside
Speaking with you meanwhile
Impressing the masses
Just by being myself
But do I care?
You love me better than me
I hate that I'm always feeling empty
Got everything to lose, but nothing at the same time

Please don't use and abuse me, I can't take it anymore
Rest in peace
Now go chop any remnants of him into bits and pieces
Then dispose of it and mop the floor

Is this what it feels like to be loved and adored?
It makes my thoughts run laps around my brain
Blessed to have everything I need around me, but I still feel poor
Don't know how much more of this I can maintain

Chasing money, chasing fame, chasing women, chasing gold
I was told to pay my dues up on this road
Trying to numb the pain to make my life last because
When you sell your soul, you tend to live life fast
