[Intro]
You think you know his game and he’ll flip another gaslight
Rich motherfucker with his hands on your wind pipe
Gather up
I’ll sing a song for you suckers if you gather up
Counter ops
We're going to fit right in if we act real dumb

[Verse 1]
Say the fucking pledge and be amazed at some other guys accomplishments
Lock a toddler up inside a cage, make him wonder where his father is
Publish every single word you say and somehow you're still anonymous
If a sergeant thinks you disobeyed him then he's gonna fuck up your esophagus

[Pre-Chorus]
Now gather up
They put a price on confusion and it's not enough
Counter ops
'Cause we can fit right in if we act real dumb

[Chorus]
I'm burning alive‚ I'm burning alive
Yeah‚ this must be hell
But I learned to get by‚ I learned to get by
'Cause I can lie to myself

[Verse 2]
I don't need your point of view, I'll never care what your perspective is
Get the fuck up out my face, I don't need to deal with the punishment
I could go impersonate you‚ making everything you're saying meaningless
Absurdity's my only god and I'm pretty zealous in believing it
Woo!
You got your thumb in your mouth and you love a good lie
You got a rapist signing bills and you all feel fine

[Pre-Chorus]
Gather up
I’ll sing a song for you suckers if you gather up
Counter ops
We're gonna fit right in if we act real done

[Chorus]
I'm burning alive, I'm burning alive
I guess this must be hell
But I learned to get by, I learned to get by
'Cause I can lie to myself
Burn out 'til I've lost the sun
It makes a fool of everyone
But I learned to get by‚ I learned to get by
'Cause I know I can lie, I know I can lie
(Whoa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oh)
I can lie to myself
(Whoa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oh)

[Pre-Breakdown]
You think you know his game and he’ll flip another gaslight
Rich motherfucker with his hands on your wind pipe
Staring at his phone while the world becomes a gunfight
Help him get his way and he'll keep you all safe, right?

[Breakdown]

[Bridge]
There is a place where your convictions all began
I want to nuke it and never think about it again

[Chorus]
I'm burning alive, I'm burning alive
I guess this must be hell
But I learned to get by, I learned to get by
'Cause I can lie to myself
Burn out 'til I've lost the sun
It makes a fool of everyone
But I learned to get by, I learned to get by
'Cause I know I can lie, I know I can lie
(Whoa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oh)
I can lie to myself
(Whoa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oh)
