Текст песни The Projector - Cyborg Octopus

Behold the projector

Replaying wretched scenes within your mind

Resentment is rehearsed to unfortunate perfection

Yearning for script correction, rapture is lost in time

Behold the projector

Spin those rusty reels until you find

Your favorite lines of misery, edit for continuity

This is the pain of your design

Project the past unto me

Descend to bitter familiarity

Gratitude can be so challenging

When despair of the past becomes comforting

No longer the man you once knew

Type casted into the role that you're used to

Act your way out of responsibility

Project your pain unto me

Violent Outbursts you forgot, I have not

Carved in my memories your insecurities forced upon me

Let your petulance flow from my temples

Wring my neck with abusive indulgence

As I behold the projector, films of wrath and anger fill my mind

But I direct which part I play and I will learn from your mistakes

Lying to family and friends, this cycle ends

Refusing to make amends, this cycle ends

Coping within delusion, this cycle ends

The stage is your only redemption, this cycle ends

Monologues prepared with resentment

False apologies meant for excellence

Take a bow it must be quite the challenge

Playing both the victim and the villain

Whatever it takes to save face

As if you weren't full of hate in the first place

Act your way out of responsibility

Project your pain unto me

Violent Outbursts you forgot, I have not

Carved in my memories your insecurities

Project your weakness with vengeance and regret protecting the depths of your scars

Protect the coarseness while building your fortress to hide from the coward you are

To Vain to see the cruelty that you boast

It twists and contorts you into the monster you hate the most
