Your popularity contest veiled as a revolution   wallow in misery, suffer your celebrity   hold your status above me   hold it high above me   wallow in your misery, suffer your celebrity   you hold a special place in my heart with handshakes and smiling faces...   ...and all your actions, they have a reason   premeditated compliments   your life - contorted, contrived - and you play the part so well   in their lives I've seen compromise but I will not compromise   your game, your rules, you win   I am their slave   I'm just a pawn in their game   Labels make the best the best targets   persecution is its own reward so still you carry your cross for all to see   why live without an audience?   in their lives I've seen compromise but I will not compromise   complacent slave!
