World Leader Pretend Lyrics - Green - Rem

I sit at my table and wage war on myself 

It seems like it's all, it's all for nothing 

I know the barricades 

And I know the mortar in the wall breaks 

I recognise the weapons, I've used them well 

This is my mistake 

Let me make it good 

I raised the wall 

And I will be the one to knock it down 

I've a rich understanding of my finest defences 

I proclaim that claims are left unstated 

I demand a rematch

I decree a stalemate 

I divine my deeper motives 

I recognise the weapons 

I've practised them well 

I fitted them myself 

It's amazing what devices you can sympathize 

Empathise 

This is my mistake, let me make it good 

I raised the wall 

And I will be the one to knock it down 

Reach out for me 

Hold me tight 

Hold that memory 

Let my machine talk to me 

Let my machine talk to me 

This is my world, and I am the World Leader Pretend 

This is my life, and this is my time 

I have been given the freedom to do as I see fit 

It's high time I razed the walls that I've constructed 

It's amazing what devices you can sympathize 

Empathise 

This is my mistake, let me make it good 

I raised the wall 

And I will be the one to knock it down 

You fill in the mortar 

You fill in the harmony 

You fill in the mortar 

I raised the wall 

And I'm the only one 

I will be the one to knock it down
