[Verse 1]
I found my voice
When I was young
I screamed 'til I couldn’t speak
But they couldn't hear me
But they couldn't hear me
My broken words
Rolled off my tongue
From lungs that could barely breathe
But they couldn’t hear me
But they couldn't hear me
[Pre-Chorus]
I was the salt of the earth
I was spawned from the red dirt
Stuck inside my head
With the ones that I hurt
Unholy hallucination
Reliving a relentless
Fixation
[Chorus]
And I'm dead to rights
It's I against I
An eye for an eye
If the good must die
I live this lie
This ends tonight
[Verse 2]
I live my truth
So don't you fucking ask
What I have been through
Is it because I have no control?
Does my emptiness complete you?
[Pre-Chorus]
I was the salt of the earth
I was spawned from the red dirt
Stuck inside my head
I made everything worse
Unholy hallucination
I'm feeling like a living abomination
[Bridge]
It follows
It follows
[Chorus]
And I'm dead to rights
It's I against I
An eye for an eye
If the good must die
I live this lie
This ends tonight
[Verse 3]
I sold myself out to sickness
(A thousand lives I have witnessed)
Branded our name in my skin
(I let the wrong ones in)
Dissolved into static
Lived life in a panic
It’s I against I
Sometimes the good have to die
[Verse 4]
Someday I’ll become
Just a photo in a frame
Have I really changed at all
Am I exactly just the same
Why does life feel
Like some kind of fucking game
Will my legacy end here
Or with my god damned name
Have I actually touched
A single fucking soul
Did I ever lift you up
Tell me did I fulfill my role
I never meant to be the one
To let you down
I was just too busy
Drifting in my own sound
Forever in debt to the dream
Why do we come here just to leave
