What You Need
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.
I am everybody everyone you see around
I can hurt and love anything that I want
Maybe I will disappear without a sound
And maybe I will create a new cold war front
Blind you are walking through this dirty game
That you call your precious little life
All day searching for lust money and fame
My strings attached I hold the wheel I drive
What you´d do if I called you stupid
What you´d do if I called you a saint
What you´d do if I slapped in your face
What you´d do if I then regret it
There is no way out I roll the dice
I am everything you know hate love bleed
All that you really need are my sweet lies
Yes I am the one thing that you really need
What would you...
