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 |
