lyrics

Laugh at where we're going
You can't ignore the conversation
Ears are ringing
Still can't hear you

Running in circles
Ruined plans of world domination
Here's an opinion
There's some truth
It isn't easy to play the villain
But let's talk about you

Gather all your friendships
Gather your belongings up
You're old enough to know
That no one's getting out of here
But you can run for cover

Talk talk talk
Fast talk your way
Around a fabricated condescension
You built tough to last
Where there's smoke there's fire
Buried bodies under mass persuasion
You can change the locks
But you can't change the rules

So scared of what was lost here
On the grounds of losing hope
You're old enough to notice
We're not getting out of here
But we can run for cover
So here's to all your friends
Here's to all your longings
We're gonna run for cover
Run for cover
It isn't easy to be the villain

You could pick me up
I could put you down
I could step aside
You'd still run me over
You could carve me up
We could watch me drown
You really cut me up
When you cut me down
