Here am I, fighting for the gold in me
Save myself from getting sick and all from knowing
On all fours, collecting scars
Punishing myself for giving a shit
About all of it, not knowing...
The force that guides can also crush

How can you steal so selfishly the innocence...
Knowing this, brother how can you
Pretend to care so selflessly for me
With all your shit
Betray's a great decay in everything that's sacred now...
Knowing this, how can you
Steal so selfishly the innocence
That's already been taken from me?

I beat them at their own game
Still I'm the one who screams awake at night
From suddenly now knowing the truth
About the inner glow,
And how it's sucked by leeches, snakes, and
Everything that's underneath me growing...
Like strife that's bred to wreck this core

Knowing this,
How can you pretend to care so selflessly for me
When all my dreams are gone?
