lyrics

Locked in a room & staring at mirrors
Your vision gets blurred, but you can see clearer
I look at you, I see what you do
Nobody cares they're pulling you deeper
Humanity's slope is getting much steeper
I'm looking at you, I see what is true
Waving your hands, the danger is growing
But they'll come for you, intentions are showing
They're looking at you, don't see what I do
Picture a world that's safe and endearing
Achieving this though, it takes engineering
So what do we do? What point do we prove?

CHORUS:
Desperate times call for desperate measures
And desperate men forget consequences
Right & wrong are just quaint points of view
When sharks are involved & they're circling you
Desperate times & these desperate measures

Who do you trust, the man in the mirror?
The voice in your ear is pulling the trigger
The spark in my voice, you're making your choice
Stuck in a room, ambitions are growing
The cards are laid out, your heart beat is slowing
The knife in your hand, is not what you planned
I never lie, but am I a liar?
You want to see light, you best build a fire
But you might get burned, cause you never learn
Moves & removed, react & re-address
The fire is on, it's warming the furness
So what have you done? It's only begun...

CHORUS:
Desperate times call for desperate measures
And desperate men forget consequences
Right & wrong are just quaint points of view
When dark magic's involved and it's ruining you
Desperate times & these desperate measures
