High horse cut at the knee
And yet you march on
Waking up every day battle-starved
You can count me out
I am not a pawn in your game
And I am not weaker than my rage
And I'll never be ashamed to say
That I will walk a different fucking way
♪
There's nothing you can do to me
That someone hasn't done before
You are just a slave to your fists
Win the fight and still lose the war
Because I'll get back up every time
And I don't live my life by "eye for an eye"
I'll turn my back and count to ten
And I will have power over you in the end
♪
And I will walk away
♪
And that's the difference between
You and me
♪
Just because you have grown
Comfortable inside your cage
Doesn't mean that everyone is empty inside, without their pain
You can cover me in fire but we will never be the same
Silently in spite of you, I will find peace in the flames
♪
Shackled to the weight of your emptiness
Please don't take my silence as passiveness
Reaching out with broken hands just to be pushed away again
Head held high when your friends are around
But a scared little boy hides deep down
♪
And still you clench your fist
Swing at nothing, and you always miss
And still you bite the hand
Reaching out just to understand
You made this bed
And you will
Lie in it
