Jealousy's an ugly word, but you don't seem to careConverse behind my back, but now I'm hereNeed no one to comply with me though everyone that I defeatDon't need you, fuck camaraderie, this rage will never go awayHatred fuels my blood, I'll burn ya down (you can't help me)One king to watch the horsemen fall, I'll fight 'til the end (I won't help you)I can't trust anyone, see it in my eyesNow I can understand, it's sorrow that feeds your liesYou're on my back when the water gets too deep for you to breathA crutch for you that won't always be thereHide in the dark another day, the fear in you is here to staySo keep the fuck away from me and learn to trust the words I sayHatred fuels my blood, I'll burn ya down (you can't help me)One king to watch the horsemen fall, I'll fight 'til the end (I won't help you)I can't trust anyone, witness and see it in my eyesNow I can understand, put faith in you for the last timeIt's sorrow that feeds your liesRun from me before I tear you down (be afraid)You chose the wrong side (it feels so right)I won't help you, let you rot away (despise what you say)Run towards the light exposing your soul (we won't be there by your side)Salvation's dying (somebody's crying)We're all gone in the end, sweet child we'll miss youNo, so far away, far awayI can't trust anyone, witness and see it in my eyesNow I can understand, put faith in you for the last timeIt's sorrow that feeds your liesFalling away, can't buy back timeBurned it down anyways

"He who makes a beast out of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man"Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay. I tried to drive all through the night, the heat stroke ridden weather, the barren empty sights. No oasis here to see, the sand is singing deathless words to me. [Chorus:]Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone). Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction. My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone). No one can save me and you know I don't want the attention.As I adjust to my new sights the rarely tired lights will take me to new heights. My hand is on the trigger I'm ready to ignite. Tomorrow might not make it but everything's all right. Mental fiction follows me; show me what it's like to be set free.[Chorus]So sorry you're not here I've been sane too long my vision's so unclear. Now take a trip with me but don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem. Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay. These eyes won't see the same, after I flip today. Sometimes I don't know why we'd rather live than die, we look up towards the sky for answers to our lives. We may get some solutions but most just pass us by, don't want your absolution cause I can't make it right. I'll make a beast out of myself, gets rid of all the pain of being a man.[Chorus]So sorry you're not here I've been sane too long my vision's so unclear. Now take a trip with me but don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem.I've known it from the start all these good ideas will tear your brain apart. Scared but you can follow me I'm too weird to live but much too rare to die
