|
Underneath the crushing weight of the world |
|
is 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 |
|
And 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 |
|
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 |
|
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 |
|
You're in Hell |
|
And it is your own fault for once as well |
|
Now 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 |
|
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 |
