SILHOUETTE CITIES lyrics : "Playing the Victim"

I call your bluff, make no mistake
You're full of %#@!, the evidence is pouring down your face
Crisis averted. A perfect slate

A one-two and you leave the room
And one wrong step has sealed my fate
But I'm still alive. So remove the tape

This time no alibis
Get on the stand and clear my name


'Cause I've been under your pressing thumb for way too long
And I've survived your stranglehold on me
I hope it's warm beneath my skin, the place that you've been living in

All this time

Hues blue and red illuminate

They light my path as I let down my guard and take the bait
A siren screams, we fire shots
A man down. Convince me now illusions aren't all you've got

Slap on the cuffs and read me my rights
You flash your badge, kick in my teeth
No witnesses in site

You plant the gun and leave me for dead
But try, try all you can to shake this image from your head


This is what you call settling the score
This is what you call peace of mind
Now you're a suspect

You're an accomplice
This is what you call getting what is yours
This is what you call reparation

This is what you call justified
