We are the ones taking all the pain Falling on our faces They don’t care anyway Anyway, now You’re the one that makes me feel like I’m alive You’re the one that pushes me all the time All the time, now We are hard and grey Always praised to do what they say Calling me deranged Feeling power, I must take its place some way Never gonna run away Seeking out the path But the pain always gets in the way Slowly watch me die I’m insane, so dangerous Don’t you dare get in my way Throwing in the towel Got me strained, so betrayed Get the f*ck out of my way Looking at my thoughts, I take my time Pounding all these spikes in my veins We are the ones reaching out in vain Trying to solve our problems They won’t go away, go away now You’re the one that makes me feel like I’m alive You’re the one that pushes me all the time All the time, now We are hard and grey Always praised to do what they say Calling me deranged Feeling power, I must take its place some way Never gonna run away Seeking out my path But the pain always gets in the way Slowly watch me die I’m insane, so dangerous Don’t you dare get in my way Throwing in the towel Got me strained, so betrayed Get the f*ck out of my way Looking at my thoughts, I take my time Pounding all these spikes in my veins Pounding all these spikes in my veins Pounding all these spikes in my veins Pounding all these spikes in my veins Never gonna run away Seeking out my path But the pain always gets in the way Slowly watch me die I’m insane, so dangerous Don’t you dare get in my way Throwing in the towel Got me strained, so betrayed Get the f*ck out of my way Looking at my thoughts, I take my time Pounding all these spikes in my veins Pounding all these spikes in my veins Pounding all these spikes in my veins Pounding all these spikes in my veins Pounding all these spikes in my veins Pounding all these spikes in my veins Looking at my thoughts, I take my time Pounding all these spikes in my veins
