I wake up every morning, bright and early
Roll out of bed but I’m never quite alone
Tension is pulling me in all directions
And all of these problems use me as their own
Sometimes the pressure will just drive you crazy
At any time I could explode
I need some piece of mind, it’s got me tired
Don’t wanna lose it, [...]
Can’t you see I’m easily bothered by persistence
One step from lashing out at you…
You want in to get under my skin

as the final chapter fades away
Cuz they can’t hide;

Hide in the light
Everything is paid for tonight
while at the party of the dead dancing in their graves
The drinks here are free so [...]
I feel insane
Every single time I’m asked to compromise
‘Cause I’m afraid and stuck in my ways
And that’s the way it stays
So how long did I expect love to outweigh ignorance?
By the look on your face I may have forced the scale to tip
