There's a vulture perching right offscreen
And it's bitter and whispers chaotic things
And the weeps turn quick into bullying
It's so easy to see everyone can agree stop listening
I know you've heard it before
But then it wasn't enough
You don't want to be held back from the substitution
I know you've seen this before
And now enough is too much
You don't want to be set back when the substitution comes
I'm sorry
You're a marionette in the center of
The twisting of strings coming from above
It may seem too deep to recover from
It's so easy to see everyone can agree just let it go
I know you've heard it before
But then it wasn't enough
You don't want to be held back from the substitution
I know you've seen this before
And now enough is too much
You don't want to be set back when the substitution comes
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
When the voices start spitting just be aware
I've brought enough stones for us to share
That one's grinning, that one's burning aim for the throat
Let 'em choke on the stones that we have to throw
It's the great downfall
The big overthrow
If we shoot them down
It'll make you soar
When reactions turn into hurricanes
And the middle ground seems a little tame
Whether full or empty, it's all the same
It's so easy to see everyone can agree you're not to blame
I know you've heard it before
But then it wasn't enough
You don't want to be held back from the substitution
I know you've seen this before
But now enough is too much
You don't want to be set back when the substitution comes
I'm sorry
