lyrics
You’d be innefectual
If you lost your pinciples
I arrived at this conclusion with logical thoughts
I took things into my hands
I sold out to his demands
So I am making the wrong choice ‘cause you cannot
The worst punishment I’ve found
Is knowing that I let you down
Erred on the wrong side
But I will do better next time
We are victims of our rules
This scenario: We’re fools
But their hesitance to intrude you can’t decry
Your authority, userped
And it’s not what you deserve
Your knowledge of back-channel schemes- you can deny
The worst punishment I’ve found
Is knowing that I let you down
Erred on the wrong side
But I will do better next time
We have to get back to
Home for our stellar crew
Keep your conscience clean
Ends justify my means
Well the irony is just
The directive aimed at us
My logic was not in error but I was
Indeed I broke your trust
And this operation bust
You’ll see you can count on me to be your compass
The worst punishment I’ve found
Is knowing that I let you down
Erred on the wrong side
But I will do better next time
If you lost your pinciples
I arrived at this conclusion with logical thoughts
I took things into my hands
I sold out to his demands
So I am making the wrong choice ‘cause you cannot
The worst punishment I’ve found
Is knowing that I let you down
Erred on the wrong side
But I will do better next time
We are victims of our rules
This scenario: We’re fools
But their hesitance to intrude you can’t decry
Your authority, userped
And it’s not what you deserve
Your knowledge of back-channel schemes- you can deny
The worst punishment I’ve found
Is knowing that I let you down
Erred on the wrong side
But I will do better next time
We have to get back to
Home for our stellar crew
Keep your conscience clean
Ends justify my means
Well the irony is just
The directive aimed at us
My logic was not in error but I was
Indeed I broke your trust
And this operation bust
You’ll see you can count on me to be your compass
The worst punishment I’ve found
Is knowing that I let you down
Erred on the wrong side
But I will do better next time
