Brace For Impact
Brace for impact because it is everything you thought you wanted
and truth be told its ever so much more,
The lie was wrapped so brightly,
and it was advertised just right,
The fact that devil had the details
was cleverly held out of sight.
Brace for impact because it is all about to tumble down
it will be the tsunami you never expected
and a mess you can't clean alone.
Brace for impact of the blame game
You'll be set up with the smoking gun,
and you will feel the oppression that victim-hood brings.
The devil was the conductor
and he lied to you about the quality of the show,
so brace yourself for impact
because your suffering is about to set fire to its creepy glow.
