I'll take your hand, you take mine
And we'll play follow the leader.
Match my steps as best you can-
Careful, I will try to trick you.
When you stumble, I succeed.
You want to win? Stop trusting me.
It's like you think you need me-
Don't you know we're playing a game?
Fine, keep your eyes swollen shut.
Why do you still have faith in me?
Can't you see you're on a leash?
Yes, but your loyal like a scar.
Unstitch your eyes and realize
I cannot match your perceptions.
I'm leading you to wasteland
Where I first learned to lose this game.
This time, you're going to lose.
If we ever get back, of course.
I'm not sure where I'm going.
I haven't seen well since he left.
No, I was blind before then.
