Lyrics
Puppets on a tangled string
A hollow crown for a hollow king
They build the stage they write the script
Another lie from poisoned lips
We dance along to the frantic beat
Just trying to find our own two feet
But the floor is glass and it's built to break
Another soul for them to take
This whole charade a masquerade
A fragile house of cards they've made
Let it all collapse let it turn to dust
In this grand design there is no trust
The Devil may care but I do not
I'll watch it burn I'll watch it rot
The Devil may care but I do not
They preach of order preach of peace
While tightening the iron leash
They count their gold they place their bets
And just forget all their regrets
I see the wires I see the gears
Been watching this unfold for years
It's just a game I'm forced to play
And I'll just wait for the final day
This whole charade a masquerade
A fragile house of cards they've made
Let it all collapse let it turn to dust
In this grand design there is no trust
The Devil may care but I do not
I'll watch it burn I'll watch it rot
The Devil may care but I do not
What choice
What choice do I have
But to play
Play their broken game
What choice
What choice do I have
None
All the pieces set in place
Another rat in their sick race
They think we're blind they think we're tame
They don't even know my real name
I'll smile and nod I'll play the part
With a hollow beat inside my heart
But when it falls I'll be right here
The one who shed no single tear
This whole charade a masquerade
A fragile house of cards they've made
Let it all collapse let it turn to dust
In this grand design there is no trust
The Devil may care but I do not
I'll watch it burn I'll watch it rot
The Devil may care but I do not
Devil may care
But I do not
This world order
Is built to rot
Devil may care
I do not
Just a game
The only one we've got
