Laughter speaks of no pain
fool's confession's never see a tear
so it's all in vain
like playing a fool's game
with lack of trying,
for the jester's mission
is to make believe,
that every detail
is so carefully thought through

Look into my eyes
when I talk to you
look into my eyes
can you still say it's [bad word] 
look into my eyes
when I talk to you
look into my eyes
can you still say it's [bad word] 

So are you buying
what they're selling you
with expertise in how you show no fear
this white collar lie
is this justifies
they'll have you bleeding
you'll have forever
finally at least I hope you see
how every detail
is so carefully thought through

look into my eyes
when I talk to you
look into my eyes
can you still say it's [bad word] 
Look into my eyes
when I talk to you
look into my eyes
can you still say it's [bad word] 

Look into my eyes, look into my eyes,
look into my, look into my,
look in, look in, look in, look in,
look into my eyes!

So you let your heart decay
left everything in disarray,
highlighted it with strokes of gray
yes you did
stole away my dignity
hung it out for everyone to see
a force of will to threaten me
oh, tell me why'd you let me down
why'd you choose to do it now
cuz consequences do get around
oh you must be aware of this,
this is how it's for us all
after every last build wall
even the greatest empire
must fall.
