Description
Hey, sorry, I've just swung back around
Your face is looking gloomy, you could use a change
Don't worry, please don't look so down
You've got a problem, I've an answer, it's a perfect exchange
A jack-in-the-box
You're gonna pop if they keep twisting slowly
Trapped in with locks
It all can stop if you just listen closely
Wipe out what you've been told
It's your choice to be controlled, oh!
Their suits aren't made for you
So maybe try on out my new worldview
Step out across the line
Into a world that's just like mine, oh!
Ascendant to divine
Perfection isn't just a state of mind
Take a long look at all the people all around you
Do they look happy with the choices that they've made?
You question me like I'm the one called you here
I'm pretty sure you know the reason's crystal clear
They wind you up like you're their cheap little toy
But in the end I think we both know that it's all just a ploy
Wipe out what you've been told
It's your choice to be controlled, oh!
Their suits aren't made for you
So maybe try on out my new worldview
Step out across the line
Into a world that's just like mine, oh!
Ascendant to divine
Perfection isn't just a state of mind
Crafting a world that will set you free
It only costs but a little fee
Just leave it, it's nothing, I think that you'd agree
Remove it, just lose it, give up humanity
"Now, sit back, take a deep breath, and relax. As I count to three..."
"ONE."
I've shut the door
'Cause there was no place for me
"TWO."
I wanted more
Then just a life of envy
"THREE."
I've cut my ties
Now I've realized...
That you should too
Wipe out what I've been told?
It's my choice to be controlled, oh!
Their suits aren't made for me
But this isn't really quite my cup of tea
Step out across the line
Into a world that's truly sublime
Ascendant to divine
But perfection isn't quite what I had in mind
They're little words, they don't carry a threat
Yet they pull your strings like you're a marionette
They say you're not a pawn
But you're playing their game
No way
We'll change the rules
No, it won't be the same
Our way
Tick, tock, there goes the clock
Tickin' on down, no, it ain't gonna stop
You've made your decision now
Come on, ditch the club of "holier than thou"
A broken system isn't fixed with a broken solution
A revolution isn't built without a hint of delusion
We shut it down and rebuild from the ground
Ha, ha! It's too late now, we've taken over the town
Wipe out what you've been told
It's your choice to be controlled, oh!

Sometimes, Traveller sees someone out of the corner of his eye. Someone who Karsum...who HE used to be. War Markus. The progenitor. The first modern Warmonger. The Warmonger. The one who caused so much suffering and destruction across the worlds, until The Event cut him down. But it's a burden Traveller still carries. It's who he was, in one way or another. And he's always there. Asking for him to return to his "nature"...
...Or it's Shadow Traveller, but you know by now what I think about Shadowselves. :/
