Your lies! Yeah! I didnt think that I had a debt to pay Til they came to take all I had left away You said you wouldnt put me to the test today But I remember you saying that yesterday There was a time when your mind wasnt out of control Every memory and confession pouring out of your soul Like a pill you couldnt swallow and it swallowed you whole Another lie hard to follow til it followed you home And like that Broken down A victim of your lies You hide behind lies You dont know why You crossed the line Wrapped up inside your lies You hide behind lies Youre lost inside that cold disguise Behind your lies I dont know what you thought I might say Seems like we never would talk the right way Every other minute I fought for my place And drop what I made thought and you might stay so Im guessing that you probably know When your insides hollow then you ought to be cold Like a pill I couldnt swallow and it swallowed me whole Another lie hard to follow til it followed me home And like that Broken down A victim of your lies You hide behind lies You dont know why You crossed the line Wrapped up inside your lies You hide behind lies Youre lost inside that cold disguise Behind your lies Youre faking, youre mistaken If you think that you could climb out of this hole Forsaken, what we take when All our lies come from the power of control Broken down A victim of your lies You hide behind lies You dont know why You hide behind lies You dont know why You hide behind lies You dont know why You hide behind Wrapped up inside your lies You hide behind lies You dont know why You crossed the line Wrapped up inside your lies You hide behind lies Youre lost inside that cold disguise Behind your lies

Dont you hold your breath cause Im not coming down The battlefields have left me only scars And floating in the dark, Im swimming in the sound Of voices that should never been apart Darker than the blood Higher than the sun This is not the end You are not the only one With venom on their tongues, they paint it on the walls Where justice doesnt have the strength to hold The higher that they climb, the harder they will fall And we will break their bones until they fall Darker than the blood Higher than the sun This is not the end You are not the only one Ahh, ah-ah, ahh, ahh Ahh, ah-ah, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh Darker than the blood Higher than the sun This is not the end You are not the only one This is not the end You are not the only one This is not the end You are not the only one

One, then multiplies til you can taste the sun And burned by the sky you try to take it from But if it falls, theres no place to run Crumbling down, its so unreal Theyre dealing you in to determine your end And sending you back again, to places youve been And bending your will til it breaks you, within And still, they fill their eyes With the twilight through the skylight And the highlights on a frame of steel See the brightness of your likeness As I write this on a pad with the way I feel Hear the screaming in my dreaming As its seeming that youve played your part Like youre heartless, take apart this In the darkness, but I know that Ive tried so hard I tried so hard and got so far But in the end, it doesnt even matter I had to fall to lose it all But in the end, it doesnt even matter Ive looked down the line And whats there is not what ought to be Held back by the battles they fought for me Calling me to be part of their property And now, I see that I get no chance I get no break Fakes and snakes quickly lead to mistakes And as the tightrope within slowly starts to thin I can only hope that they close their eyes To the twilight through the skylight And the highlights on a frame of steel See the brightness of your likeness As I write this on a pad to the way I feel Hear the screaming in my dreaming As its seeming that youve played your part Like youre heartless, take apart this In the darkness, but I know that I tried so hard I tried so hard and got so far But in the end, it doesnt even matter I had to fall to lose it all But in the end, it doesnt even matter Ive put my trust in you, pushed as far as I can go For all this, theres only one thing you should know Ive put my trust in you, pushed as far as I can go For all this, theres only one thing you should know Ive put my trust in you, pushed as far as I can go For all this, theres only one thing you should know I tried so hard and got so far But in the end, it doesnt even matter I had to fall to lose it all But in the end, it doesnt even matter

Standing alone with no direction How did I fall so far behind? Why am I searching for perfection Knowing its something I wont find? In my fear and flaws I let myself down, again All because I run til the silence splits me open I run til it puts me underground Til I have no breath And no roads left but one When did I lose my sense of purpose? Can I regain whats lost inside? Why do I feel like I deserve this? Why does my pain look like my pride? In my fear and flaws I let myself down, again All because I let myself down In my fear and flaws I run til the silence splits me open I run til it puts me underground Til I have no breath And no roads left but one No roads left but one In my fear and flaws I let myself down, again All because I run and the silence splits me open I run and it puts me underground But theres no regret And no roads left to run

Where should I start? Disjointed heart Ive got no commitment to my own flesh and blood Left all alone, far from my home No one to hear me, to heal my ill heart I keep it locked up, inside I cannot express to the point Ive regressed If angers a gift, then I guess Ive been blessed I keep it locked up, inside Keep my distance from your lies Its too late to love me, now You have never shown me Its too late to love me, now You dont even know me Breaking a part of my heart to find release Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace Breaking a part of my heart to find release Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace Breaking a part of my heart to find release Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace Breaking a part of my heart to find release Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace Keep it locked up, inside Keep my distance from your lies Breaking a part of my heart to find release Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace Breaking a part of my heart to find release Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace Breaking a part of my heart to find release Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace Breaking a part of my heart to find release Taking you out of my blood to bring me peace Keep my distance Keep my distance Keep my distance Keep my distance Spit drips from the jaw of the witless witness Cryptic colloquialisms shift your mid rift Dog paddle through a bog of shadows and smog With my thought catalog, analogue rap battle log Keep my distance and fear resistance Hurt by persistence, the twisted web of tangled lies Strangles my hope to waste and numbs the taste And Im forced to face these hate crimes Against the state of being Feeling the weightlessness press me to the ceiling Reeling around rooms, riding a bubble of sound Tuned to the frequency making your chest shake With every boom Involuntary muscle contraction Ignoring your necks breaking, musical gas fume euphoria The sound pounds to make the dead flush To hand you a head rush with read rhymes and said stuff

She cant hide, no matter how hard she tries Her secret disguise behind the lies And at night, she cries away her pride With eyes shut tight, staring at her inside All her friends know why she cant sleep at night All her family asking if shes alright All she wants to do is get rid of this hell Well, all shes gotta do is stop kidding herself She can only fool herself for so long She can only fool herself for so long She can only fool herself for so long She can only fool herself I never know just why you run So far away, far away from me I never know just why you run So far away, far away from me When it comes to how to live his life, he cant be told Says hes got it all under control Thinks he knows its not a problem hes stuck with But in reality, itd be a problem to just quit An addict and he cant hold the reigns The pain is worse cause his friends have it the same Tries to slow down the problem hes got But cant get off the carousel until he makes it stop He can only fool himself for so long He can only fool himself for so long He can only fool himself for so long He can only fool himself I never know just why you run So far away, far away from me I never know just why you run So far away, far away from me Fly with me, under the wings I gave you Try to be closer to me and Ill save you Fly with me, under the wings I gave you Try to be closer to me and Ill save you I never know just why you run So far away, far away from me I never know just why you run So far away, far away from me I never know just why you run So far away, far away from me I never know just why you run So far away, far away from me

Part of me wont go away Every day, reminded how much I hate it Weighed it against the consequences Cant live without it, so its senseless Wanna cut it out of my soul And just live with the gaping hole Take control of my life and wash out all the burnt taste I made the problems in the first place Hang my head low cause its part of me You hardly see right next to the heart of me Hurting me, the wounds soon scar New cuts cover where the old ones are And now Im sick of this I cant stand the sandpaper thoughts that grate on my sanity I rather not even be Than the man thats staring in the mirror through me Cut myself free willingly, stop just whats killing me Cut myself free willingly, stop just whats killing me Cut myself free willingly, stop just whats killing me Cut myself free willingly, stop just whats killing me I feel it every day I feel I made my way I feel it swell up inside Swell up inside, swallowing me Freedom can be frightening if youve never felt it Once its been dealt with You feel like youve been touched by something angelic And then melted down into a pool of peace Cease to be the animal you used to be Remove the broken parts you know were wrong And feel the calm when the problems all gone And then you start to see Another piece of yourself that you cant let be Memories of the last fight to free yourself Taken to the depths of the bottom of the well And now you know that you can choose To lose the part in your heart where your insides bruise You can live if youre willing to Put a stop to just whats killing you Cut myself free willingly, stop just whats killing me Cut myself free willingly, stop just whats killing me Cut myself free willingly, stop just whats killing me Cut myself free willingly, stop just whats killing me I feel it every day I feel I made my way I feel it swell up inside Swell up inside, swallowing me This part of me wont go away Part of me wont go away Everywhere I look around, I see how everything ought to be Every time I see myself, theres always something wrong with me Everywhere I look around, I see how everything ought to be Every time I see myself, theres always something wrong with me I feel it every day I feel I made my way I feel it swell up inside Swell up inside, swallowing me I feel it every day I feel I made my way I feel it swell up inside Swell up inside, swallowing me I feel it swell up inside Swell up inside, swallowing me I feel it swell up inside Swell up inside, swallowing me

In this desert, in darkness Lying with the gun across his chest Pretending hes heartless As the fire flashes in the sky He was fragile and frozen When the bullet took away his friend And now hes somehow more broken Hes pulling his weapon to his side Loading it full of his goodbyes Holding an enemy across the line Hes pulling his weapon to his side Loading it full of his goodbyes Holding an enemy across the line Sweating and shaking Lying with her hands across her chest She wakes with her cravings As the fire flashes in her eye She was fragile and frozen When the needle took away her friend But now shes somehow more broken Shes pulling her weapon to her side Loading it full of her goodbyes Holding an enemy across the line Shes pulling her weapon to her side Loading it full of her goodbyes Holding an enemy across the line With every battle hes chosing With every fight hes losing His enemys not far behind With every promise shes broken With every lie shes spoken Her enemys not far behind Its your time Its your time Its your time Its your time! Hes pulling his weapon to his side Loading it full of his goodbyes Holding an enemy across the line Shes pulling her weapon to her side Loading it full of her goodbyes Holding an enemy across the line With every battle hes chosing With every fight hes losing His enemys not far behind With every promise shes broken With every lie shes spoken Her enemys not far behind

Im swimming in the smoke Of bridges I have burned So, dont apologize Im losing what I dont deserve The blame is mine, alone For bridges I have burned So, dont apologize Im losing what I dont deserve What I dont deserve

Crawling in my skin Crawling in my skin Without a sense of confidence Consuming, confusing Crawling in my skin Without a sense of confidence Im convinced that there’s just too much pressure to take There’s something inside me that pulls beneath the surface Crawling in my skin, crawling in my skin These wounds, they will not heal, these wounds wont heal Fear is how I fall, fear is how I fall Confusing, confusing what is real Confusing what is real Theres something inside me that pulls beneath the surface Consuming, confusing This lack of self-control, I fear is never ending Controlling, I can’t seem To find myself again, my walls are closing in Without a sense of confidence Im convinced that theres just too much pressure to take Ive felt this way before, so insecure Crawling in my skin These wounds, they will not heal Fear is how I fall Confusing what is real Discomfort endlessly has pulled itself upon me Distracting, reacting Against my will, I stand beside my own reflection It’s haunting how I cant seem To find myself again, my walls are closing in Without a sense of confidence Im convinced that theres just too much pressure to take Ive felt this way before, so insecure Without a sense of confidence Without a sense of confidence Without a sense of confidence I’m convinced that there’s just too much pressure to take Without a sense of confidence Without a sense of confidence Without a sense of confidence I’m convinced that there’s just too much pressure to take To find myself again, my walls are closing in Without a sense of confidence Im convinced that theres just too much pressure to take Ive felt this way before, so insecure Crawling in my skin These wounds, they will not heal Fear is how I fall Confusing what is real Crawling in my skin These wounds, they will not heal Fear is how I fall Confusing, confusing what is real

I have a dream of a scene between the green hills Clouds pull away and the sunlights revealed People dont talk about keeping it real Its understood that they actually will And intoxicated and stimulated MCs Staring in the trees, paranoid, are gone in the breeze Watch them flee, hip-hop heads Take a walk with me and what youll see Is a land where the sand is made up of crushed up wax And the sky beyond you is krylon blue And everybody speaks in a dialect of rhyme And MCs have left materialism behind them Meanwhile, I just grip my mic And hope me and my team make it through alright Because say what you will and say what you might But dont ignore who its for at the end of the night Because this is dedicated to the kids Dedicated to wherever music lives Dedicated to those tired of the same ol same And dedicated to the people advancing the game Whats real is the kids who know that somethings wrong Whats real is the kids who think they dont belong Whats real is the kids who have nowhere to run Who are hiding in the shadows, waiting for the sun Ive seen a lot of , Ive talked to a bum Out on Sunset Strip, he asked me, How would you feel If everybody acted like you didnt exist? Youd lose your grip, probably eventually flip So let it be known, the only reason that we do this Is so you can pick it up and just bang your head to it While MCs fight to see who can be the commonest Be floating overhead like a space odyssey monolith Over seeing the game, over being part of the same old thing Its all gonna change in a hurricane of darkness and pain And acidic rain and promises that you wont do it again Meanwhile, I just grip my mic And hope me and my team make it through alright Because say what you will and say what you might But dont ignore who its for at the end of the night Because this is dedicated to the kids Dedicated to wherever music lives Dedicated to those tired of the same ol same And dedicated to the people advancing the game Whats real is the kids who know that somethings wrong Whats real is the kids who think they dont belong Whats real is the kids who have nowhere to run Who are hiding in the shadows, waiting for the sun Pulling me close, the shadow is warm inside This is where I feel at home, this is my place to hide Pulling me close, the shadow is warm inside This is where I feel at home, this is my place to hide This is dedicated to the kids Dedicated to wherever music lives Dedicated to those tired of the same ol same And dedicated to the people advancing the game Whats real is the kids who know that somethings wrong Whats real is the kids who think they dont belong Whats real is the kids who have nowhere to run Who are hiding in the shadows, waiting for the sun This is dedicated to the kids Dedicated to wherever music lives Dedicated to those tired of the same ol same And dedicated to the people advancing the game Whats real, everybody who doesnt feel safe Whats real, everybody who knows theyre out of place Whats real, anybody with nowhere to run Who hides in the shadows, waiting for the sun

And it makes you so mad That somebody else could be stepping in front of you And it makes you so mad That I wont give you the respect that the others do And you cant understand it was over Before its begun, hope you had fun Youve got a lot to discuss on the bus Headed back where youre from You guys ready to sing that shit? Fuck So say goodbye and hit the road Pack it up and disappear You better have some place to go Cause you cant come back around here Good goodbye Good goodbye Good goodbye Good goodbye Yo, ayy Let me say goodbye to my demons Let me say goodbye to my past life Let me say goodbye to the darkness Tell em that Id rather be here in the starlight Tell em that Id rather be here where they love me Tell em that Im yours, this is our life Still keep raising the bar like Never seen a young black brother in the chart twice Goodbye to the stereotypes You cant tell my kings we cant Mandem were linking tings in parks Now I got a tune with Linkin Park Like goodbye to my old hoes Goodbye to the cold roads I cant die for my postcode Young little Mike from the Gold Coast And now Im inside with my bro bros, gang So say goodbye and hit the road Pack it up and disappear You better have some place to go Cause you cant come back around here Good goodbye Good goodbye Good goodbye Good goodbye Stormzy! Make some fucking noise! Make some noise for Stormzy ladies and gentlemen! Oh London, I love you guys, thank you

Why does it feel like night today? Something in heres not right today Why am I so uptight today? Paranoias all I got left I dont know what stressed me first Or how the pressure was fed But I know just what it feels like To have a voice in the back of my head Like a face that I hold inside Face that awakes when I close my eyes Face that watches every time I lie Face that laughs every time I fall And watches everything So I know that when its time to sink or swim That the face inside is here in me Right underneath my skin Its like Im paranoid, looking over my back Its like a whirlwind inside of my head Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin Hey yo Here we go again with the pain I feel isnt real but in my mind I find myself in places with names but not faces My memory races at speeds, hundred degrees My soul, bleeds devil must have planted the seed Now it feels like my backs against the wall Im taking the fall Whenever I call nobodys responding at all But I dont know who I can trust, they screaming my name I need somebody to help me out of the flames All Im trying to do is just master me All I wanna do is smoke and blast a beat But something keeps talking to me consciously Responsibly, it keeps haunting me From dusk till dawn everything has something for ya That voice inside of your head got you projecting paranoia Cold sweat shining on your face exposing your purpose And if I ripped off the skin Id probably find another person Theres nothing worse than trying to bring yourself up back from the dead So I advise you listen to that voice in the back of your head Its like Im paranoid, looking over my back Its like a whirlwind inside of my head Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within Its like the face inside is right beneath the skin Its like Im paranoid, looking over my back Its like a whirlwind inside of my head Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin The face inside is right beneath your skin The face inside is right beneath your skin The face inside is right beneath your skin The face inside is right beneath your skin The sun goes down I feel the light betray me The sun goes down I feel the light betray me The sun (Cant stop what Im hearing within Its like the face inside is right beneath the skin) Its like Im paranoid, looking over my back Like a whirlwind inside of my head Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within Its like the face inside is right beneath the skin Its like Im paranoid, looking over my back Like a whirl whirlwind inside of my head Its like I cant stop what Im hearing within Its like the face inside is right beneath my skin

Come on! I woke up in a dream today To the cold of the static and put my cold feet on the floor Forgot all about yesterday Remembering Im pretending to be where Im not anymore A little taste of hypocrisy And Im left in the wake of the mistake, slow to react Even though youre so close to me Youre still so distant and I cant bring you back Its true, the way I feel Was promised by your face The sound of your voice Painted on my memories Even if youre not with me Im with you You, now I see, keeping everything inside With you You, now I see, even when I close my eyes With you You, now I see, keeping everything inside With you You, now I see, even when I close my eyes I hit you and you hit me back And we fall to the floor, the rest of the day stands still Fine line between this and that But when things go wrong, I pretend the past isnt real Now Im trapped in this memory And Im left in the wake of the mistake, slow to react Even though youre close to me Youre still so distant and I cant bring you back Its true, the way I feel Was promised by your face The sound of your voice Painted on my memories Even if youre not with me Im with you You, now I see, keeping everything inside With you You, now I see, even when I close my eyes With you You, now I see, keeping everything inside With you You, now I see, even when I close my eyes I won’t let you control my fate While I’m holding the weight of the world on my conscience I won’t just sit here and wait While youre weighing your options, you’re making a fool of me You didn’t dare try to say that you don’t care And solemnly swear not to follow me there It ain’t like me to beg on my knees Oh please, oh baby, please, that’s not how I’m doing things No, I’m not upset, no, I’m not angry I know love is love, love and sometimes it pains me With or without you, I’ll always be with you You’ll never forget me, I’m keeping you with me No, I won’t let you take me to the end of my rope While you burn it and torture my soul No, I’m not your puppet And, no, no, no, I won’t let you go No, no matter how far we’ve come I cant wait to see tomorrow No matter how far weve come I, I cant wait to see tomorrow With you You, now I see, keeping everything inside With you You, now I see, even when I close my eyes With you You, now I see, keeping everything inside With you You, now I see, even when I close my eyes

Youre terrified, terrified Youd rather throw it all away! Fear is dancing inside your lies Exposing secrets that youve disguised And Im biting my tongue as you become Victim of a compromise Cause I know who you really are Not a scratch where you pretend youre scarred And its time that you seek the truth without me I can only get you so far, far, far, far Youre terrified, terrified Youd rather throw it all away, all away, all away! Youre terrified, terrified Youd rather throw it all away! Throw it all away, all away, way! Throw it all away, all away, all away, way! Throw it all away, all away, all away, way!

Cause you will never have a thing Unless youve got your word What are you worth? Last straw as the sky turns to red Free fall, while I fight to forget All the back and forth and yes and no All the right and wrong and high and low And you set me up to let me down But it all comes back around What are you worth now? What are you waiting for? When every battlefield you run from generates a war? What are you chasing? What do you think you deserve? Cause you will never have a thing Unless youve got your word What are you worth? What are you worth? All the back and forth and yes and no All the right and wrong and high and low And you set me up to let me down But it all comes back around What are you worth now? What are you waiting for? When every battlefield you run from generates a war? What are you chasing? What do you think you deserve? Cause you will never have a thing Unless you’ve got your word What are you worth?

She had never really understood She demanded her respect Twenty years of falling under foot Twenty reasons to regret You would look for what you couldnt see Scared to be what she became She would tell you what you couldnt be And why you had yourself to blame Alone again, you try to disappear And hold it in, pretending not to hear This voice without a sound Voice that tears you down Youre trying not to fear, saying this is in your head But it whispers in your ear, saying this is what you get She was ready with your penalty When eventually, youd fall She was there, inside your memory Saying this was all your fault Alone again, you try to disappear And hold it in, pretending not to hear This voice without a sound Voice that tears you down Youre trying not to fear, saying this is in your head But it whispers in your ear, saying this is what you get Alone again, its all becoming clear You hold it in, pretending not to hear This voice without a sound Voice that tears you down Youre trying not to fear, saying this is in your head But it whispers in your ear, saying this is what you get This voice without a sound Voice without a sound This voice without a sound Voice without a sound

Down on the floor Back behind the door I try to catch my breath again I cant ignore Whats back behind the door Wondering whats next again I can say that youre the one That battles always choose But sometimes I realize That Im the one confused I dont know what were fighting for Or why we have to scream I dont know why I instigate And say what I dont mean I dont know how we got this way I know its not alright So Im breaking the habit Im breaking the habit, tonight Memories consume, pacing in the room Cleaning broken glass again Suddenly soon youre leaving from the room Its happening so fast again I can say that youre the one That battles always choose But sometimes I realize That Im the one confused I dont know what were fighting for Or why we have to scream I dont know why I instigate And say what I dont mean I dont know how we got this way I know its not alright So Im breaking the habit Im breaking the habit, tonight Crashing into walls It never was your fault So here we are again And this is how it ends I dont know what were fighting for Or why we have to scream I dont know why I instigate And say what I dont mean I dont know how we got this way I know its not alright So Im breaking the habit Im breaking the habit Im breaking the habit, tonight

All these things I could not say Made me so much more afraid Just too scared of what Id find To look behind, to look behind All these things I could not say Made me so much more afraid Just too scared of what Id find To look behind, to look behind If you go, theres no turning back If you go, theres no turning back If you go, theres no turning back Theres no turning back No, no, no, no, no, no... No, no turning back! No, no turning back! No, no turning back! No, no turning back! All these things I could not say Made me so much more afraid Just too scared of what Id find To look behind All of these things I could not say Made me so much more afraid Just too scared of what Id find To look behind, cant look behind!

And I wanna thank all the people I see every night at all these shows You know who you are Love you guys I got a long way to go And a long memory I been searching for an answer Always just out of reach Blood on the floor Sirens repeat I been searching for the courage To face my enemies When they turn down the lights I hear my battle symphony All the world in front of me If my armor breaks I’ll fuse it back together Battle symphony Please just don’t give up on me And my eyes are wide awake For my battle symphony For my battle symphony They say that I don’t belong Say that I should retreat That I’m marching to the rhythm Of a lonesome defeat But the sound of your voice Puts the pain in reverse No surrender, no illusions And for better or worse When they turn down the lights I hear my battle symphony All the world in front of me If my armor breaks I’ll fuse it back together Battle symphony Please just don’t give up on me And my eyes are wide awake If I fall, get knocked down Pick myself up off the ground If I fall, get knocked down Pick myself up off the ground When they turn down the lights I hear my battle symphony All the world in front of me If my armor breaks I’ll fuse it back together Battle symphony Please just don’t give up on me And my eyes are wide awake For my battle symphony For my battle symphony

Thank you very much I feel like I havent been over on this side like the whole night Whats up you guys? It starts with one One thing, I dont know why Doesnt even matter how hard you try Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme to explain in due time All I know Time is a valuable thing Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings Watch it count down to the end of the day The clock ticks life away Its so unreal Didnt look out below Watch the time go right out the window Tryin to hold on, they didnt even know I wasted it all just to watch you go I kept everything inside And even though I tried, it all fell apart What it meant to me will eventually be a memory Of a time when I tried so hard I tried so hard and got so far But in the end, it doesnt even matter I had to fall to lose it all But in the end, it doesnt even matter One thing, I dont know why It doesnt even matter how hard you try Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme To remind myself how I tried so hard In spite of the way you were mockin me Actin like I was part of your property Remembering all the times you fought with me Im surprised it got so far Things arent the way they were before You wouldnt even recognize me anymore Not that you knew me back then But it all comes back to me in the end You kept everything inside And even though I tried, it all fell apart What it meant to me will eventually Be a memory of a time when I tried so hard I tried so hard and got so far But in the end, it doesnt even matter I had to fall to lose it all But in the end, it doesnt even matter Ive put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go For all this Theres only one thing you should know Ive put my trust in you Pushed as far as I can go For all this Theres only one thing you should know I tried so hard and got so far But in the end, it doesnt even matter I had to fall to lose it all But in the end, it doesnt even matter Amsterdam, you are incredible!

I watch how the moon sits in the sky on a dark night Shining with the light from the sun Sun doesnt give light to the moon assuming The moon’s gonna owe it one Makes me think of how you act to me You do favors then rapidly Just turn around and start asking me About things that you want back from me I’m sick of the tension, sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place, to feed your greed While I find a place to rest I want to be in another place I hate when you say you don’t understand I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy A Place for My Head Maybe someday I’ll be just like you and Step on people like you do and Run away the people I thought I knew I remember back then who you were Used to be calm, used to be strong Used to be generous but you should’ve known That you’d wear out your welcome And now you see how quiet it is, all alone Im so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place to feed your greed While I find a place to rest Im so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place to feed your greed While I find a place to rest I want to be in another place I hate when you say you don’t understand I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy A Place for My Head You try to take the best of me You try to take the best of me You try to take the best of me You try to take the best of me, go away! You try to take the best of me, go away! You try to take the best of me, go away! You try to take the best of me, go away! You try to take the best of me, go away! I want to be in another place I hate when you say you don’t understand I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy A Place for My Head Ugh! Shut! Up! Why! I am so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place to feed your greed While I find a place to rest Im so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger Sick of you acting like I owe you this Find another place to feed your greed While I find a place to rest

You take, you take Away, away Why does it feel like night, today? Something in heres not right, today Why does it feel like night, today? Paranoias all I got left You take, you take Away, away This is so fun This whole project is, like, fun Did that sound good? Thats right

This is where the pain comes from This is how the payback sounds This is why the fire goes up This is why the walls come down You aint never been in these shoes Never know a word that Im saying So the only thing to keep the blood flowing Is to let you know Im not playing Ima see your lies exposed Ima see the justice done Ima see the sun come back Ima see the kingdom come Take it where it cant come back Take it where the shadows been Take it to the breaking point Take it to the end Saying that the end is near God, you have no idea Used to be afraid, but now Only thing I fear is fear This is where the line gets drawn Something that youve always known This is what youre hiding from True fellows, never yours to own Give me back the fire I had Give me back the faith I lost Give me back the trust you broke Give me back the pride it cost Take the venom out of my blood Take the pain you put me in Take it when I tell you so Take it to the end
