Lyrics
Was it too good to be true --
all those people looking up to you?
Take a guess:
do they listen ‘cause your mouth is blessed?
Or does it matter what you’d say, ‘cause they’d follow anyway?
You start to doubt. You test it out.
You take advantage of the devout.
But can your psyche take the shock of finding out?
And then doubt begins to root. It grows acute.
And if they find out then you’re screwed.
But your crown’s too heavy just to be
some shitty painted cardboard thing
you crowned yourself with,
oh you selfish sad and disillusioned man.
So who’s the scammer and who’s the scammed?
You narcissistic sad and disillusioned man.
Acting out and self destructive,
more drugs and women, but still reluctant
to admit that you’re a sad and disillusioned man.
