[Verse 1]

Looks like the time has come

To pull the plug on the weak

Your independence gone

Control is not what it seems

It's time to rise up

And take it into the streets

The life support is cut

The transformation complete

[Pre-Chorus]

My actions don't seem so clean

You're out there

Pulling the strings

Anything in a cage that couldn't hold

Has escaped and it's out of your control

Everything you ever hoped that you could be

Only exists in a fake reality

[Chorus]

You and I are one and the same

One reflection

Bound by different names

Recognize that you have become

Everything you hate

Everything you hate

[Verse 2]

Master manipulate

I'm nothing more than a slave

I must capitulate

And start to dig my own grave

It's time to die and be

The person you've come to hate

I have come to see

Futility of the brave

[Pre-Chorus]

My actions don't seem so clean

You're out there

Pulling the strings

Anything in a cage that couldn't hold

Has escaped and it's out of your control

Everything you ever hoped that you could be

Only exists in a fake reality

[Chorus]

You and I are one and the same

One reflection

Bound by different names

Recognize that you have become

Everything you hate

Everything you hate

[Refrain]

Cut the cords

Cut the cords

That bind you

Cut the cords

Cut the cords

That bind you

Cut the cords

Cut the cords

That bind you

Cut the cords

And be free

[Bridge]

I am not the one that you hate

I am not the one that you hate

I am not the one that you hate

I am not the one that you hate

I am not the one that you hate

I am not the one that you hate

[Chorus]

You and I are one and the same

One reflection

Bound by different names

Recognize that you have become

Everything you hate

Everything you hate (You hate)

You and I are one and the same (You hate)

One reflection

Bound by different names (You hate)

Recognize that you have become

Everything you hate

Everything you hate

[Refrain]

Cut the cords

Cut the cords

That bind you

Cut the cords

Cut the cords

That bind you

Cut the cords

Cut the cords

That bind you

Cut the cords

And be free
