Taking Over

lyrics

“Taking Over”

It’s silence that asks for a sound
It’s chains that ask you what it’s to be free
Now tell me what do your lies ask of you

I thought you’d be there to see me end
I guess it’s time for us to move along
So for now it’s goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

And it’s funny this song you liked is now about you
And I hope it seeps right in like they always do
I’ll carry on doing what I do the best
Despite you who came along with your short-lived stay

So sit back and watch me
Take over this world we see
Enjoy the show with who it is in place of me
There’s things left to be said and to be done
They won’t mend on their own
So don’t waste your time waiting for me

Choose your facade or to come clean
I well see the choice you made finally
So go bask in the cheers of the ones that don’t know you best

Leaving was easy wasn’t it?
You saw no need in exchanging words
And words you cannot expect when you try to return

So don’t waste your time waiting
