Promises turn into to lies turn into treachery
Can it be sustained for long we'll just tune in and see
Laughing and smiling a stab in the back
Falsely portraying the character attack
Rub those elbows, worm your way in, power takes control
Funnel all that money to your shriveled blackened soul
Now all alone, you couldn't keep it up
Swimming with the sharks and they will not interrupt
You as you put the noose around your neck
There was no balance but still you wrote the check
What makes a person turn into a traitor
Greed and envy are a common indicator
Hiding intentions is key to their game
Coveting their power the stories all the same
Rub those elbows, worm your way in, power takes control
Funnel all that money to your shriveled blackened soul
Now all alone, you couldn't keep it up
Swimming with the sharks and they will not interrupt
You as you put the noose around your neck
There was no balance but still you wrote the check
