We begin tonight
With one of the biggest
Wall Street insider trading cases ever
The subject of an FBI investigation
Mr. Osborne, Fox, and his media organizations
Have recently been under investigation
For a number of corporate misdemeanors
This is about a man who has
Over the decades, perhaps
Promoted wars
That have killed hundreds of thousands
Starting millions of people
It's a corporate cycle
The overarching(?) by far
Is probably the biggest
Insider trading prosecution ever
There will be other people
In other organizations
Come along
And take his place quite quickly
It's not fact (?)
Faces a maximum of 105 years of prison
And millions in fines
The staff have been indicted
And his former count
Pleaded guilty
And are cooperating with prosecutors
About a lot of lawsuits
Employees of (?)
Have had to endure
Weeks of speculation
Daily headlines charting the fall
Of a once-powerful business empire
Where I took all
A lot of very important people
Will be coming down with me—
It's off the chain
The beast is deranged
Broken out
No longer contained
I can't explain
The fear is ingrained
Fall from fame
Pieces to be claimed
This resignation
Paranoid fixation
Fractured and shameless
The ruins I created
This invitation
Frozen numb sensation
Fractured and shameless
Blamed on my temptation
Accept this fate
Endless parade
Kings I made
Thrones they will reclaim
My worst mistake
Weakness has tainted
The wire, a noose
No longer evades
This resignation
Paranoid fixation
Fractured and shameless
The ruins I created
This invitation
Frozen numb sensation
Fractured and shameless
Blamed on my temptation
You want me to entertain you
With fear and devastation
Blinded by the anger
You still asked for more
The bribes, the fraud
The notion
Of corporate extortion
The wolf is at the window
The pig is at the door
The world within stopped turning
This nightmare's still recurring
Take a look inside of this dark, rotten core
I can still stake my claim
Focus on all your pain
Keeping you awake at night if you explore
Betrayed my ways
No light inside
Jealousy and greed
Made a travesty of me
Young, alone
A stranger's bed, mislead
No power, no dignity,
I've dragged it all back to me
This empire of my creation
Devours my imperfections
Bonds have been broken
Won't take me alive
Moments of shallow glory
Finally come to haunt me
Scandalized and destitute
With nowhere to hide
Avoid it
This fear machine, eternal fortress
Ignore it
Breaks you down, the pain is endless
Escape it
Those who prey, remaining faceless
Destroy it
Submit to fate, I'm cheap and helpless
Fold beneath the weight of it all
Blood runs cold and the fear takes control
It's here in these walls
As this cage becomes my home
Turn, turn the pages of stone
The story untold like the dusk turns to dawn
Eyes beneath the blindfold
As this cage becomes my home
Stripped from the towers above
A fallen icon
Taken down from my throne
The seasons change
I am left alone
