lyrics

I'm a disappointment to myself
my mind keeps running back and forth
between depression and true happiness
between beautiful eloquence
and hideous incoherence.
I cannot be held accountable
for my results.
My actions are all the proof
that I've got to show to keep on going.
I can't stop now
but can't I just please slow down?

I never thought that I would see the Devil
But now I feel his presence everywhere.
He lives in the eyes of the vacant -
those numb to the world can inflict the most pain.
Am I still preaching to the choir
when I say I wanna set the whole world on fire?
Funding's been cut.
We're losing our minds.
Hey! I'm the child that you left behind!

So I will be the monster
that you've always wanted.
I will counterbalance
everything you trust in.
Make myself a scapegoat
for your losses.
Hold your fire people,
there are no hostiles here.
