Our path diverged upon a road
You chose a darker fate to sow
I watched you turn from friend to foe
It had to end like this, I finally know
(Chorus)
The things I hope, the failing dream
Has finally got the best of me
I wish that I could be there
I want to be the one to watch you die
I've finally learned what torture means
You sent my first born back to me
And put a gun in his dead hand
It's time I take an eye for mine, old friend
I sent a bullet with your name
I want to finally end this game
You are the one who wrote the end
You wanted war, now I just want revenge
(Chorus)
I want to be the one to watch you die
(Spoken)
Son, for one who wants so much to be human,
I fear you only see the worst of us.
How many more lives must end before he meets his?
Put a stop to this. End him. They will forgive you.
...and yet I wonder, am I right to ask this of you?
(Chorus)
The things I hope, the failing dream,
Has finally got the best of me,
I wish that I could be there,
I want to be the one to watch you...
You chose a darker fate to sow
I watched you turn from friend to foe
It had to end like this, I finally know
(Chorus)
The things I hope, the failing dream
Has finally got the best of me
I wish that I could be there
I want to be the one to watch you die
I've finally learned what torture means
You sent my first born back to me
And put a gun in his dead hand
It's time I take an eye for mine, old friend
I sent a bullet with your name
I want to finally end this game
You are the one who wrote the end
You wanted war, now I just want revenge
(Chorus)
I want to be the one to watch you die
(Spoken)
Son, for one who wants so much to be human,
I fear you only see the worst of us.
How many more lives must end before he meets his?
Put a stop to this. End him. They will forgive you.
...and yet I wonder, am I right to ask this of you?
(Chorus)
The things I hope, the failing dream,
Has finally got the best of me,
I wish that I could be there,
I want to be the one to watch you...
