Turned him into me...
the greatest devious comrade
Fostered him to mirror me
to repeat what I have done
Taught a snake to bite me
so now I say 'well played, bud'
I shouldn't have told you my secret
now you're using it against myself
I shouldn't have equipped you with my sword
now, I go unarmed as you stab my soul
I knew you were trouble
still, I taught you to be worse
I molded you into a liar
to defeat me with your truth
I trained you to put out a fire
now you burn me with the cold
I fed a famished stranger
now you deprive me with ardor
I created a monster
now you haunt me in my thoughts
You have become me,
that now, I think I can't defeat,
So congratulations!
You're my greatest downfall, buddy.
