Rookie |
I never thought this could be me |
I guess you never do until it"s happening to you |
Like all the fun turns into shame |
And all the «could have beens"rearrange |
So little time, so many crimes |
Guilt like a chain chokes my will away |
Redemption never seemed so cruel |
And all my gods never seemed so weak |
Wake up, engage, now derailed and enraged |
It used to be so easy |
Get up, I"m game, now sick and I"m tame |
Counting cost with lost |
Where is the hope they gave? |
Don"t think that I can"t hear you laugh |
I used to be a lot like you |
But now I"m only me I used to be a lot like you |
But now I"m only me, I"m only me |
«Drinks to pills to shots, |
Fun turns into shock |
A habit and a pawn |
For every hand goes round |
The pain gets so damned loud |
the hammer hits.» |
.and I"m down and I"m down and I"m down and I"m down and |
Trust no one. |
Hey, why should I? |
They gave me this poison dressed like life Cheated, smacked up and diseased |
Cry to sleep and fight to eat |
I used to be a pro at this |
Now I"ve broken my own wrist |
Rotten teeth and life unsung |
You"ll forget me when I"m gone |
Wake up, engage, |
now derailed and enraged |
It used to be so easy |
Get up, I"m game, now sick and I"m tame |
Counting cost with lost |
I used to be a lot like you |
But now I"m only me I used to be a lot like you |
But now I"m only me, I"m only me |
