Easy Target
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Are you really talking about us?
Are you really talking about us?
With anonymity, as your security,
and prince authority,
you could be dangerous
so tap your fingers, to a beat I can't fight,
and watch the sparks fly out the press
BEWARE! Your friends have betrayed you,
BEWARE! We never knew you,
BEWARE! Your friends have betrayed you,
Beware, beware...
Are you really talking about us?
If you keep tapping your fingers, you will wear them to the bone,
Are you really talking about us?
If you keep tapping your fingers, you will wear them to the bone.
In your defence I was an easy target,
not every _______ enough with their mistakes to be ironic
you dotted the i's and crossed the t's,
but didn't keep your friends as close as your enemies.
What matter's in the end,
Is that you're writing in the right tense,
Can you spell objectivity?
spell objectivity?
BEWARE! Your friends have betrayed you,
BEWARE! We never knew you,
BEWARE! Your friends have betrayed you,
Beware, beware...
Are you really talking about us?
If you keep tapping your fingers, you will wear them to the bone,
Are you really talking about us?

BEWARE! Your friends have betrayed you,
BEWARE! We never knew you,

Beware, beware...
Are you really talking about us?
If you keep tapping your fingers, you will wear them to the bone,
Are you really talking about us?
If you keep tapping your fingers, you will wear them to the bone.
