In the middle you stood
as the world crumbled around you
you cared not what happened
for you were on top
you looked down and spat upon us
and we looked up and loathed you
you knew not what you made us
but we knew what we had made you
we had made you our leader
we had followed you
and you repaid us with this
we could do nothing
so you rose, and we fell
but in the end that would not matter
in the end
what would matter was who stood
on the right side

In the middle you stood
as the world crumbled around you
you cared not what happened

and we looked up and loathed you
you knew not what you made us

we had made you our leader
we had followed you
and you repaid us with this
we could do nothing
so you rose, and we fell
but in the end that would not matter
in the end
what would matter was who stood
on the right side
