Betrayed

Serpentine Wisdomd

You left us all to be used, to be a master tool?

How could you make that choice so easily?

I'm sorry, I just can't understand all your pretty words,

Your long-winded explanation.

You know me,

The stupid, loud-mouth idiot.

You gotta spell it out for me,

I don't get these elaborate speeches.

There's a girl we know, she'd do anything for you.

I've seen her training and training,

Hoping she could be good enough for you to look at her twice.

Didn't her tears mean anything when you walked away?

Did our people mean so little that you could dispose of us like trash?

For years we were all there for you.

We were the ones that grew up with you,

The ones who shared your failures and your success.

But I guess our friendship couldn't quite measure up

To the power you crave and the hatred that lurks in your chest,

Because in the end you went to him

And our memories didn't mean anything.

Tell me,

Were we not good enough?

I thought you were someone that would come through in the end,

Someone I could trust.

We fought all the time but I thought you understood,

You, you're like the brother I never had.

Now I wonder if you can even see us in that tiny little world of yours?

The only thing that's on your mind,

Is the one thing that will destroy you.

Revenge – only one word, but it's your everything.

How can anyone go so far

That they're willing to sacrifice their body and self for such a thing?

Don't you have a dream?

A dream that doesn't involve killing or destruction,

Something you can strive for and be proud of once you've achieved it.

Oh, don't kid yourself!

Even if everything goes your way

And your brother bites the dust against all odds,

It's going to destroy you worse than anything I can imagine.

I'm not blind, I can see what's going on.

You say you hate him, but look at you!

Here you are doing everything he says,

Down to the miniscule detail.

Sometimes I think you hate him only because he told you to,

So congratulations, master puppet, I hope you're satisfied.

But the face I'm looking at, no way it's really you.

I'm going to beat that nonsense out of you

If you don't shape up.

I'm not going to let you go to your death as easy as that.
