The Victim Lyrics by Sleep Signals

Ethereal

2021

[Verse 1:]
I wonʼt lie to you
I used to be exactly like you
Nobody knows you quite like I do
Youʼre so predictable
I try to walk away
But I have to say
ʼCause I know all those games that you play
And I know all the things that you say
Behind my back
Go run and hide again
Woah
Woah
[Chorus:]
Losing grip and now youʼre powerless
Seeking attention, feeling sorry for yourself
All the vain and all the wretched
The martyr has been resurrected
And now Iʼm looking for a remedy
A way to put you out of all your misery
Iʼve got the cure for all your sickness
I wonʼt play the fool while you play the victim
Woah
Yeah, you're the victim
[Verse 2:]
I canʼt help you
When you canʼt help yourself
And itʼs true
You think the world is out to get you
Oh, woe is me
Your own worst enemy
I canʼt help it
Now that I see through your weakness
Iʼm gonna watch you fall to pieces
Yeah, youʼll never learn until your bridges burn
[Chorus:]
Losing grip and now youʼre powerless
Seeking attention, feeling sorry for yourself
All the vain and all the wretched
The martyr has been resurrected
And now Iʼm looking for a remedy
A way to put you out of all your misery
Iʼve got the cure for all your sickness
I wonʼt play the fool while you play the victim
[Bridge:]
You want control!
You should beware my persistence
Or step back and feel the force of resistance
Iʼve heard this all before
And I wonʼt take it anymore
You want it all!
I watch you fade in the distance
Turn out the lights of your worthless existence
Youʼre broken to the core
I canʼt feel sorry anymore
Ohh
Woah
Ohh
*Solo guitar *
[Chorus:]
Losing grip and now youʼre powerless
Seeking attention, feeling sorry for yourself
All the vain and all the wretched
The martyr has been resurrected
And now Iʼm looking for a remedy
A way to put you out of all your misery
Iʼve got the cure for all your sickness
I wonʼt play the fool while you play the victim
Woah
Yeah, you're the victim
Yeah, you're the victim
