Somebody give me a sign
That everything’s going as planned
And then everything falls away
Into the darkness of this shallow place
The detail is striking
The room’s cold and frightening
You’ll kick and you’ll scream
You’ll try everything to survive
But you should know your fate by now
They told me (they told me)
How I should be
But I broke the mold somehow!
It’s too late, too late
You keep trying to resolve the past right now
But I swear I’ll be the one
To let the world know what you’ve done to me
You, you know you gotta assert yourself
Leave what you need for now
It’s not the time or place you’re searching for
All I can give them’s my worst of intentions
You’re nothing to me and everyone can see that
Your life’s a lie, there’s nowhere left to hide
They told me (they told me)
How I should be
But I broke the mold somehow!
It’s too late, too late
You keep trying to resolve the past right now
But I swear I’ll be the one
To let the world know what you’ve done
It’s too late, too late
You keep trying to resolve the past right now
But I swear I’ll be the one
To let the world know what you’ve done
Watch your back, you’ll lose yourself!
This is a battleground!
When will they know
Your life’s a lie
It’s too late, too late
You keep trying to resolve the past right now
But I swear I’ll be the one
To let the world know what you’ve done
It’s too late, too late
You keep trying to resolve the past right now
But I swear I’ll be the one
To let the world know what you’ve done
They told me (they told me)
How I should be
But I broke the mold somehow!
