You tried hard but the harder you tried
you could have made something of your life.
You took the wrong turn down a one way street.
There's no U-turns, no success, only defeat.
You closed the doors leaving insults locked inside.
You didn't care about your looks began to slide.
Now you've become everything you didn't want to be,
you tried to hide it but now it's on show for all to see.
Become.
You're just a puppet while someone else pulls the strings.
You're down on your knees begging thrown morsels of better things.
You planned to conquer but now you're content with defeat
on the outside you pretend to fight but you've given up underneath.
You closed the doors leaving insults locked inside.
You didn't care about your looks began to slide.
Now you've become everything you didn't want to be,
You tried to hide it but now it's on show for all to see.
Become.
And the lies have been told so many times before.
It's no longer possible to distinguish them from the truth.
So you categorize your life and you stamp yourself with a price
And you get up on the meat rack with everybody else.
You closed the doors leaving insults locked inside.
You didn't care about your looks began to slide.
Become become
