Candidate lyrics

[Verse 1]
Forced by the pressure
The territories marked
No longer the pleasure
Oh, I've since lost the heart
Corrupted from memory
No longer the power
It's creeping up slowly:
The last fatal hour
Oh, I don't know what made me
Or what gave me the right
To mess with your values
And change wrong to right

[Verse 2]
Please keep your distance
The trail leads to here
There's blood on your fingers
Brought on by fear
I campaigned for nothing
I worked hard for this
I tried to get to you
You treat me like this
It's just second nature
It's what we've been shown
We're living by your rules
That's all that we know
[Outro]
I tried to get to you
I tried to get to you
I tried to get to you
Oh, I tried to get to...
