Bystander

I'm out there with the thirty-yard stare
And the thousand dollar smirk
You look meaningless I mean it:
I'll put you to work
I will steer you wrong string you along
Like a marionette
My eye is on the clock your time's up 
But you don't know it yet

Conservation don't mean nothing
When you spent every cent of yourself
Conservation don't mean nothing

You take two steps forward but I'm always ten steps ahead
And it's so hard to follow when you're so easily led
Immoral? Sure! And I'll shovel the dirt on your grave
Bystander: You're standing in my way

C'mon! C'mon! Chameleon, 
Come out that camouflage
You rub your eyes to your surprise 
It's all one big mirage
You started a joke that made the world laugh
I know you know the rest
Life is what you make it
I'll make yours a mess

The reason you're leaving is the same as
The reason I showed up
But I never go home empty-handed
So what's with the hold up?
