Who Failed the Most Lyrics
A man of his word, corrosive, like the promise, despicable
We are his pawns to lies about the gates of paradise
Closing on the new, irreplaceable
Behold, he's stacking his brick, like it's a wall
And now the world's on fire
And now the pyre draws those clouds on the sky
Staining a page of history
Walking the walk, killing the lights
The dawn of demise
[Chorus:]
You decide who is the Lord of the Rings
The master of puppets, burning the strings
Ask yourself, now, at the end of the day
Who failed the most?
Draw a thin line to cross while making unnerving promises
Leaving a state of dystopia behind
[Chorus x2]
Yesterday, tomorrow seemed more like yesterday
Now we long for those by gone days
The known unknown is now far away
Yesterday
How brief the moment, we once believed
The guiding hands of the ones who lead
Are big enough, like they were before
Are now so small…
Building a maze of Penrose steps within your head
And lead by example from the ivory tower and golden bed
The long shadow of the money man
Tantrum fits the plan - The new law of the land
[Chorus]
You decide who is the Lord of the Rings
The monster-like master, burning the strings
Ask yourself, when everything falls apart
Who failed the most?
[Outro:]
Who failed the most? (x7)
Who failed me the most? (x4)
You failed me
We are his pawns to lies about the gates of paradise
Closing on the new, irreplaceable
Behold, he's stacking his brick, like it's a wall
And now the pyre draws those clouds on the sky
Staining a page of history
Walking the walk, killing the lights
The dawn of demise
You decide who is the Lord of the Rings
The master of puppets, burning the strings
Ask yourself, now, at the end of the day
Who failed the most?
Leaving a state of dystopia behind
Now we long for those by gone days
The known unknown is now far away
How brief the moment, we once believed
The guiding hands of the ones who lead
Are big enough, like they were before
Are now so small…
And lead by example from the ivory tower and golden bed
Tantrum fits the plan - The new law of the land
The monster-like master, burning the strings
Ask yourself, when everything falls apart
Who failed the most?
Who failed the most? (x7)
Who failed me the most? (x4)
You failed me

These lyrics are preposterous. "You decide who is the Lord of the Rings"??? Everyone knows that there is only one Lord of the Ring, only one who can bend it to his will. And he does NOT share power. :)
Actually, let's say this song is about Saruman. That kinda fits, and I'd rather have a song about Saruman than yet another ecological or "orange man bad" one.
