[D. Wayne / K. Vanderhoof] Hear the sounding, feel the pounding Pain is coming, you don't know where Blood is thick, you're feeling sick Live with the choices you have made Hard as stone it must be so In a systematic life of lies Flight or fight, run or die You can't stand to even try Rip it open, no more hoping Time for you to rise and shine I control the names I hold But I can't fit into your mold I know that I'm stronger than you are In a world where nothing is faster than life Search for answers, even after Truth is whats upon your mind On your face, its left no trace Can't you read between the lines Brand new day to do your crime Pay your debt without a dime Left unspoken, tales are broken Carve a smile upon your face Hear the phone, it's just a drone No one hears your lonely moan I can't change the world I see But i can change the world in me Now you know that the dying is easy But its harder just staying alive There are parts of the heart that are harder Than the race that we run Is faster than life
