Underneath the crushing weight of the world someone searching for a purpose Play the part that you've been dealt by the herd mouth and nose beneath the surface
For all the times you held your tongue and rehearsed (things you would say) if ever brave enough to stand in their way All with lies we make our beds and sleep (tucked away) Out of sight and out of mind we remain
And you start to paint a picture of the world just out of view Bring it with you as you dream and maybe you can wake up too
Do you believe in the world they made for you Do you belong or do you try to Erase yourself just to pass as one of them, a different day today, and that was then
Walk the streets with newfound eyes and see things from a whole new perspective Maybe not what you believed you’d be but something so much more addictive
Put on your new face and run run run (through the night) And take on those who rape and kill and steal And though the war path hardly knows your name (all the same) The taste of blood between your teeth feels real
You find it easier to play along but you are wrong And that is why you need those emo songs Why don’t you get that you have killed yourself And you’re in hell And it is your own fault for once as well
