[Verse 1]
You say your mind is never shut
But you've got everything locked up
You've got a sentimental feeling
But you're under someone else's thumb

[Chorus]
Gonna act this way, gonna think this way, gonna talk this way
Gonna be the same, gonna look away, gonna play this game
Gotta fit this way, gotta find a way, gonna throw away all the things you say
Never gonna change, gonna walk away to the next charade

[Verse 2]
Now you'll play the victim from the start
Show off your sacred, bleeding heart
You claim to know the path to healing
Empathy for all, but not for some

[Chorus]
Gonna act this way, gonna think this way, gonna talk this way
Gonna be the same, gonna look away, gonna play this game
Gotta fit this way, gotta find a way, gonna 'splain away all the things you say
Never gonna change, gonna walk away to the next charade

[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
Gonna act this way, gonna think this way, gonna talk this way
Gonna be the same, gonna look away, gonna play this game
Gotta fit this way, gotta find a way, gonna throw away all the things you say
Gonna change your name, before you take the stage, I'm gonna walk away
