Cassandra, I know you're angry, I get it
Believe me, I know what it's like
But you are making a mistake
The path of hate is a dangerous track
You take one step and it's hard to turn back
It pulls you along
And though it seems wrong, it feels right
Don't you see the path you're on leaves a permanent mark?
It feels good at first, then it slowly turns dark
With each passing day, you're further astray from the light
Suddenly, you lose your way and lose the thread
Lose your cool, then lose your head
Every loss is harder to excuse
Then you'll see you'll lose your faith and lose your soul
'Til you lose complete control
And realize there's nothing left to lose
Nothing left to lose
Cass, trust me
Becoming the villain
(Isn't the answer) is that what you think I am?
The path I'm on is a path paved in black
I'm taking that road and I'm not looking back
Each twist and each turn lead straight where I'm yearning to go
Yes, it's true, my path is dark but I see where it ends
My rivals will fall as my power ascends
Despise me, that's fine, I'm taking what's mine, even so
Not like you
You've lost your nerve, you lose the game
But you and I, we're not the same
I'm not lost, this fate was mine to lose
So I chose to lose my doubts and lose my chains
Lose each weakness that remains
Now that I have nothing left to lose
Nothing left to lose
You have so much to hold on to!
I only want my rightful due
Listen please, you've lost your grip
And lost your mind (ooh, I'm not gonna lose)
All's not lost, don't be so blind! (I refuse)
Cut your losses, drop the IOUs (I refuse)
(Oh-oh, choose) I lose no tears and lose no sleep
What I want, I'll take and keep (it's time for you to choose!)
You can't stop the turning of the screws
You'll stay in that cage until this is done
And just in case you think of escaping
Now I have
Nothing left to lose...
