Lyrics
Had enough of kneeling, I've had enough
Had enough of denial
I'm not alright but I'm not gonna lie, I don't know
That I ever was
All alone, I've waited, all alone
Held it as I played by your rules
I've been biting my lip
But I'm losing my grip
I'm coming down, down, down
When all the hate burns off, I'm left here with the pain
Behind our vain devices, aren't we all the same?
Ooh, ah, ah, ah, ah
Change me into something I believe in
Change me so I don't have to pretend
Take a breath, I'll treat you, play along
But I'm a terrible liar
I feel the world like a brick on my chest
And the party's just begun
Throw the rope, I'm wading through the mud
From your mouth flow a thousand truths
But you know
There's only one
When all the hate burns off, I'm left here with the pain
Change me into something I believe in
Change me so I don't have to pretend
Sweet words they mean nothing, they're not true
'Cause the game is over
I want it all, or I want nothing at all
Maybe I can
Change me into something I believe in
Change me so I don't have to pretend
Your sweet words they mean nothing, save your breath
The game is over
