[Intro]
This is what it feels like when
You feel unreal in the world of pretend

[Verse 1]
Beaten down
Thrown away
Took the highroad and waited for better days
Insults, yeah, I've been called names
Call it whatever
'Cause I'm used to the head games

[Chorus]
Rules of the universe
I can always fall apart
All of my life
Till I'm in the back of a hearse
Always been a war I've been willing to fight
And this is what it feels like when
You feel unreal in the world of pretend
We're only just scratching the surface, oh
Feels like the world hurts you on purpose, oh

[Verse 2]
Stood up
Turned down
Took the highroad and hoped it would turn around
I kept faith
I held ground
Blocked the outside, and now I'm living underground
[Chorus]
Rules of the universe
I can always fall apart
All of my life
Till I'm in the back of a hearse
Always been a war I've been willing to fight
And this is what it feels like when
You feel unreal in the world of pretend
We're only just scratching the surface, oh
Feels like the world hurts you on purpose, oh

[Outro]
And this is what it feels like when
You feel unreal in the world of pretend
We're only just just scratching the surface, oh
Feels like I'm the world hurts you on purpose, oh
We're only just scratching the surface, oh
Feels like the world hurts you on purpose, oh
