lyrics

You tore my soul and broke my mind
While leaving common sense behind
I'm left without a beating heart
Where do I even fucking start

All the inner parts of me
Detached from all reality
I cannot care for anything
From all the thoughts you thought you'd bring

I haven't got a place to be
The whole damn world down on their knees
What do you think you fucking know
When you haven't got a thing to show


Well I've toiled and turned, worked my life away
To be hurt by you in every single way
Lost all sense of time, my colors fade to grey
While you're watching
But I'm made to stay
So I'll build it up and I'll break it down
It's all gone to shit in this whole damn town
And I'm left looking like a fucking clown
While you're laughing
So don your crown


Calling forth your own decree
It's just another victory
Life's a game and you have won
Tell me, are you having fun

I can't stand your stupid grin
When everything I do's a sin
You can never be at fault
Using guilt as your assault

Pulling everything apart
I don't know where I should start
Twisting words and placing blame
Now I'm the one who's feeling shame


Well I've toiled and turned, worked my life away
To be hurt by you in every single way
Lost all sense of time, my colors fade to grey
While you're watching
But I'm made to stay
So I'll build it up and I'll break it down
It's all gone to shit in this whole damn town
And I'm left looking like a fucking clown
While you're laughing
So don your crown


For once the plan won't go your way
So hit me now, don't go astray
Your manipulation has failed
And now that ship has finally sailed

Come on, hit with your best shot
And show me everything you've got
Won't take your bullshit anymore
Things aren't like they were before


Well I've toiled and turned, worked my life away
To be hurt by you in every single way
Lost all sense of time, my colors fade to grey
While you're watching
Now you're made to stay
So I'll build it up and I'll break it down
It's all gone to shit in this whole damn town
And you're left looking like a fucking clown
While I'm laughing
So don your crown
