Had enough, I've really had enough Had enough of denial I'm not alright but I'm not gonna lie I don't know that I ever was All alone, I've waited, all alone Held it in as I played by your rules I've been biting my lip But I'm losing my grip I'm coming down, down, down When all the hate burns off I'm left here with the pain Behind our vain devices Are we all the same? Change me into something I believe in Change me so I don't have to pretend Take a breath and try to play along But I'm a terrible liar I feel the world like a brick on my chest And the party's just begun Throw the rope I'm wading Through the mud From your mouth flow a thousand truths But you know There's only one When all the hate burns off I'm left here with the pain Change me into something I believe in Change me so I don't have to pretend Sweet words, they mean nothing, they're not true 'Cause the game is over I want it all or I want nothing at all Maybe I can Change me into something I believe in Change me so I don't have to pretend Your sweet words, they mean nothing, save your breath The game is over

Ever loved a woman Who made you feel tall? Ever loved a man Who made you feel small? If you were a sailor I'd raise the anchor To sail the sea In search of you and me And god conjures currents To break our fragile boats And both the innocent and the damned Are swallowed up in his wake If you were a huntress I'd be your bow For your silver arrows To seek out his heart Ever loved a woman Who made you feel tall? Ever loved a man Who made you feel small? Who are you to complain For lack of understanding? We are all created equal In just one thing alone Alone in your thoughts That consume you through your life They'll take you outwards To the dark edge of time And there's nothing more dangerous Than a man with nothing to lose Nothing to live for And nothing to prove
