lyrics

I'm getting sick of hearing talk
None of this means a thing to me
If what they say is true then I'm not half of what I'm supposed to be
Blessed with talent, yet for years I've pissed away my prime
Millions born deprived of hope, I'll let them have what's left of mine
It isn't fear of god that drives the nail right through my open chest
It's knowing that I had it all but didn't care to give my best
I've screamed my bitter judgement at the one who's earned the blame
I hardly recognize him even though we share a name
I'm under no illusions
I've tried to find solutions
I know I've failed you and worst of all I've failed myself
I've always had my secrets, there's things I swore I'd never tell
I spent most nights alone so wandering eyes can't fix their gaze
Humans crave destruction and who knows what lying mouths will say
It's one thing to live with the fact I killed my very soul
But bad things become worse with words that I cannot control
I used to feel a sense of pride but replaced it all with hate
I didn't realize the future of my world was still at stake
I'm under no illusions
I've given up on solutions
I seek some new direction before I lose connection
A piece of me feels incomplete
I must surrender to defeat
My thoughts are words I can't repeat
I'm rendered obsolete
Expected to become elite
Not so simple to delete
Nothing kept discreet when news has hit the street
If my desire turns up dead you'll know I just could not unlock the door inside my fucking head
If I cannot live up to what you said then I've become the thing that I most dread
I can't look myself in the face
If I'm so fucking great then why do I feel like everyone else?
