Lyrics
I didn't mean to give my soul away
I regret unintentionally giving away my inner self.
To have the life I thought that everybody wants
I pursued a life I believed everyone desired.
And I need to let you know I was wrong
I acknowledge my mistake and need to communicate it.
It's a sham
The pursued life is a deception.
They stole my heart and took control away
They manipulated and seized control of my emotions.
And when I lost the life that everybody wants
Lost the envisioned ideal life that many desire.
Well, you'd think they'd help you out
Expecting help, but they are indifferent.
But they don't give a damn
No concern or care from those who deceived.
They lift you up (You might feel it, but don't believe it)
They raise you up, but it's misleading; don't believe it.
You take your turn (You'll see it, when you achieve it)
It's your chance, but realization comes with achievement.
They light that spark (You can't fight it)
They ignite a spark within you.
Then sit back and watch you burn
Then step back and enjoy watching your downfall.
They lift you up (You might feel it, but don't believe it)
Similar to line 10, emphasizing skepticism.
Give you your task (You'll see it, when you achieve it)
Assigned tasks come with achievement, not genuine help.
When your world goes dark (You can't hide it)
When your world turns dark, they revel in it.
They'll just smile and watch you burn
They show no empathy, only watch you suffer.
You can't believe a single word they say
Don't trust anything they say; it's all deceitful.
You tried to have the life that everybody wants
Striving for the universally desired life is futile.
Pretty soon you'll figure out that you don't
Realization that the pursued life is a sham.
It's a scam
A scheme or fraud has been exposed.
You're torn apart, and then you're thrown away
Experiencing emotional turmoil, then discarded.
And you become the one that everybody talks
Becoming the subject of gossip and criticism.
By then there's no way out
At this point, there's no escape.
It's all part of the plan
All of this is part of their manipulative plan.
They lift you up (You might feel it, but don't believe it)
Reiterating the false elevation, warning against belief.
You take your turn (You'll see it, when you achieve it)
Your chance comes with achieving, not their assistance.
They light that spark (You can't fight it)
They instigate a change but won't support you.
Then sit back and watch you burn
They revel in your struggles and setbacks.
They lift you up (You might feel it, but don't believe it)
Similar to line 28, emphasizing skepticism.
Give you your task (You'll see it, when you achieve it)
Assigned tasks are part of the deceptive plan.
When your world goes dark (You can't hide it)
When you face difficulties, they take pleasure in it.
They'll just smile and watch you burn
They simply smile as they witness your suffering.
They lift you up
Reiteration of the false elevation, cautioning against it.
You take your turn (You'll see it, when you achieve it)
Your chance is tied to personal achievement, not their help.
They light that spark (You can't fight it)
They initiate change but won't assist in your journey.
Then sit back and watch you burn
They enjoy witnessing the consequences of their actions.
They lift you up (You might feel it, but don't believe it)
Similar to line 37, emphasizing skepticism.
Give you your task (You'll see it, when you achieve it)
Assigned tasks are not genuine help, but part of the plan.
When your world goes dark (You can't hide it)
When life becomes difficult, they find satisfaction.
They'll just smile and watch you burn
They derive pleasure from observing your suffering.
