4. Tell It Like It Isn't

Who cares if I don't get the whole story from you?
I'll write it myself anyway, in my head.
Write it down again.
Tell it like it is.

Do you need me to tell you over and over and over?

I don't need the whole story from you.
I'll fill it out my way, to my ends.
Turn it around again.
Tell it like it isn't.

Do you need me to tell you over and over and over?

Deception is a timeless tradition.
There is no afterlife but to be remembered.

How should we be remembered?
Should we all be saints?
Should we be just men?
If just men we be; are we just, just men?
Should we be demonized in the eyes of those who follow us
for all the evil that we've done?

How do you want to be remembered over and over and over?

Deception is the trending tradition.
There is no afterlife, but how you're remembered.

In your grave will you roll over and over and over?
