lyrics

I guess I run a little more than I would like to admit. I pick the hill I want to die and just go full sprint. I used to think I'd change the world back when I was a kid, but in the end, it's just a sentimental feeling I get.

I try to focus on what's best for me, but in the end, it always hits just like a brick to see what I want versus what I think I want to be.

Shame on me for thinking I could do both: play their rules and get ahead in this rat race.
Being honest doesn't pay what it should, and in a world full of sheep, I want to eat like a wolf.

I guess I've got a few more problems than I'd like to admit. I take as much of it I can and try to bury it. I keep on lying to my friends until it’s all that they see and keep on lying to myself until I finally believe.

I used to pray for my friends. I used to hurt when they hurt. I used love without expecting any love in return. I used to push to be better. I used to try for change, but now I can't begin to feel those same old things. Cause I left the church, cause I saw no grace. I just saw people judging other people exactly the same. But instead of love, I just gave up, and I just gave in, just like them.

I always thought I’d be a better fucking person than this.
