oroboros They hail you as their morning star
Because you are the way you are.
If you return the sentiment,
They'll try to make you different;
And once they have you, safe and sound,
They want to change you all around.

They influence and educate.
They'd alter all that they admired.
They make me sick, they make me tired.
