Marionettes

I spy with my own two eyes
A land soon to meet their demise
Let me give you my piece of mind
I was never on your side

You've got it all wrong, baby
Pulling the strings on your frail body
You think I'm here to make friends?
Collecting names as trophies

Crushing all your hopes and dreams
Rebuilding with a dream of my own
Don't act surprised, I warned you
No white flags to be seen

Chaos is my lover
Power is my best friend
You're all my marionettes
I will bring this nation to an end

Oh, I know how it feels
To be one of the gods
Crafting my steps so cautiously
Killing them softly

What is there
That you don't see?
Step down from the throne
Darling, bow to me

Chaos is my lover
Power is my best friend
You're all my marionettes
I will bring this nation to an end

Chaos is my lover
Power is my best friend
You're all my marionettes
I will bring this nation to an end

Stared down the November sky
They yelled a final goodbye
A bloody slash across their flag
A hatchet buried in their grave
