Last of my kind still standing
Sick of all your constant deriding
Chastised just for being me
So tell me who the FUCK do ya want me to be?
You think you can take me down
You just called down the thunder
Let's go another round
Watch your pride get torn asunder
Look who's laughing now
While you wallow in your own blunder
So, tell me how does it feel
To be the clown?
You're blinded by your own arrogance
Wondering what you did to deserve this belligerence
There's only so much that a man can take
Cross that line and your skull is GONNA BREAK
You think you can take me down
You just called down the thunder
Let's go another round
Watch your pride get torn asunder
Look who's laughing now
While you wallow in your own blunder
So, tell me how does it feel
To be the clown?
I will never hide
Who I am deep inside
You can try to kill my pride
But my soul will never die
You tried to take me down
But you called down the thunder
We went another round
And your pride was torn asunder
Guess you're not laughing now
You're wallowing in your own blunder
So, tell me how does it feel
To be the clown,
Sitting there alone
With your broken crown,
Having a reason
To sport an ugly frown?
HAHAHAH
Sucks real bad, don't it clown?

Alter Ego

You believe what you've been told
They said "dig", you hid your gold
Let the day shine in your eyes
But in the dark your paradise lies, so
Lend me your ears
I'll crush your fears
I don't need long
I'll make you strong
I'm the voice of your intention
Not a slave to their convention
Cut me loose, put an end to the strife and you'll
Feel the alter ego come to life
There is more than what you see
If you live deliberately
Smash the mirror in your head
'Cause trust me, friend, it wants you dead, so
Lend me your ears
I'll crush your fears
I don't need long
I'll make you strong
I'm the voice of your intention
Not a slave to their convention
Cut me loose, put an end to the strife and you'll
Feel the alter ego come to life
Lend me your ears
I'll crush your fears
I don't need long
I'll make you strong
I'm the voice of your intention
Not a slave to their convention
Cut me loose, put an end to the strife and you'll
Feel the alter ego come to life
I'm the beast of your invention
Fortified by your contention
Dig me in like the twist of a knife and
Feel the alter ego come to life

I came from loneliness
A burnt-out hopeless mess
You saw what I can't see
And wouldn't let it be
Saved me from my self-hate
Showed me it's not too late
Is this the path my life is takin'
Or a break from my frustration?
I'm just happy with what I've got, I
Enjoy the view
Enjoy the view from the top
I was the empty one
Who never saw the sun
Your smile was sweet relief
And cast away my grief
My doubts then you destroy
Wash out in floods of joy
Is this the path my life is takin'
Or a break from my frustration?
I'm just happy with what I've got, I
Enjoy the view
Enjoy the view from the top

Mark of the Traitor

You told me that no matter what this wouldn't fall on me
I did everything you asked and waited patiently
Soon enough I figured out that something had gone wrong
I guess this is what you really wanted all along
I should know by now
What just can't be true
I can't trust it
If it comes from you
Promise them utopia
But you're a reject replica
Feed your egomania
And hide the mark of the traitor
Once again I gave my trust and was taken for a ride
He gladly opened up the door and said he'd be my guide
He only wanted power and had no ability
It's the promise that you keep with false authority
I should know by now
What just can't be true
I can't trust it
If it comes from you
Promise them utopia
But you're a reject replica
Feed your egomania
And hide the mark of the traitor
It seems so endless, when nothing seems to change
The ones I leaned on have all become so strange
All this pain and anger can leave ya feeling numb
But what I never wanted is what I have become
Promise them utopia
But you're a reject replica
Feed your egomania
And hide the mark of the traitor
Hide the mark, hide the mark
Hide the mark of the traitor
