lyrics

Take me by the neck and throw me away,
Suffocating thoughts and an appetite for fear,
Fucked up illusions that we're never real,
Listen to my whispers, oh I'm so content!

I love this life inside my head!
Fuck reality!
That life is dead!

Inside my head I see all clear,
I feel twisted but at home in my own thoughts,
In the outside world ignorance is a disease,
The people that I see bring hate to my every thought,
All I see is hypocrisy and lies
Don't I sound so fucking cynical?
Is this all I'll ever know?

I'll keep all faith and know all hope but I can't promise I'll keep control!

I can't just blend in!
I'm not a fucking sheep!
Try follow a mind set and stop with the trends,

Stop with the smiles cause no ones really friends!
This is your life on repeat till the very end!

The system owns you and your worlds fallen apart,
You never realised you were fucked from the start

Life is just a game and it's full of liars and cheats!
But that's the game that we chose to play,
Is life just one big mistake?

Life is just a game and it's full of liars and cheats!
But that's the game that we chose to play,
Is life just one big fucking mistake?

Is life just a mistake?
Sometimes I just feel this way,
I've felt so lost that I thought I'd never be found,
I just wish I could turn life around,
I put all my faith that there is light,
at the end of this fucking tunnel,
You don't wanna get inside my head!
My thoughts are just too sublime,

Why do we live such hollow lives?
Such hollow fucking lives!
I just need to see the light!
Show me the fucking light!

I'm glad I can't escape my mind,
I feel like it's better this way!
I can't stand the bad intensions
in every single thing you do!
This psychosocial behaviour is killing me inside!
Always with the third degree,
Demons forever haunting me,
Why can't you just let me be?
This is not how it's meant to be!
It's not how it's meant to be,
It's not how it's fucking meant to be!
