Lost in a dream Nothing is what it seems Searching my head For the words that you said Tears filled my eyes As we said our last goodbyes This sad scene replays Of you walking away Me duele todo el cuerpo por los errores, presionados por la lujuria Nos mentimos tanto el uno al otro que ya en nada confiamos Time and again She repeats, "Let's be friends" I smile and say, "Yes" Another truth bends, I must confess I try to let go But I know we'll never end 'til we're dust We lied to each other again (I wish I could trust) But I wish I could trust Me duele todo el cuerpo por los errores, presionados por la lujuria Nos mentimos tanto el uno al otro que ya en nada confiamos Dios, te lo pido de rodillas, ayudame por favor, presionados por la lujuria Nos mentimos tanto el uno al otro que ya en nada confiamos ¿Como pudo sucederme esto a mi? Miento cuando digo, "Confia en mi", no puedo creer que esto sea verdad... La confianza duele ¿Porque la confianza es igual a sufrimiento? Me duele todo el cuerpo por los errores, presionados por la lujuria Nos mentimos tanto el uno al otro que ya en nada confiamos (in nothing we trust) Dios, te lo pido de rodillas, ayudame por favor, presionados por la lujuria Nos mentimos tanto el uno al otro (so much) que ya en nada confiamos Me duele todo el cuerpo por los errores, presionados por la lujuria Nos mentimos tanto el uno al otro (we lied to each other so much) No confiamos absolutamente en nada!

Generation of the dark, watch their lives decay Persecuting their own kind, there's nothing you can say Don't ask anyone for help, they won't know what to do If you try, if you don't die, you'll end up black and blue Epidemic of addiction, worshiping the pill Drown them all with alcohol, anything for thrills Precious life goes up in smoke, going nowhere fast The world is running rampant and you know that this can't last I want everything that makes me feel alright That feels alive, don't ask me why I want everything, right before my eyes, I can't deny I want to be the King, Kingmaker! Kingmaker! Searching for an answer, but you see you're all alone Mom and Daddy's lights are on but nobody's home They glorify their tortured life; they talk of days like this Sentencing their children, when they need to eat a fist Narcotics have enslaved them; now it's coming after you Pearls of wisdom hit the floor, there's nothing you can do Out of control, you sell your soul, so blind, you couldn't see Ten feet tall, it made you crawl; it's better you than me I want everything that makes me feel alright That feels alive, don't ask me why I want everything, right before my eyes, I can't deny I want to be the King, Kingmaker! Kingmaker! I want everything that makes me feel alright That feels alive, don't ask me why I want everything, right before my eyes, I can't deny I want to be the King! It makes me feel alive (I want everything) It makes me feel alright (I want everything) The things I can't deny (I want everything) I want to be the King!
