[Intro: Crowd and Brian "Head" Welch]
Please, please, please
I gotta beg you guys to back up please, please
We're getting crushed out here, man, for real
Back it up, back it up
Please be quiet

[Verse 1: Jonathan Davis]
Realized I can never win
Sometimes feel like I have failed
Inside where do I begin?
My mind is laughing at me

[Pre-Chorus: Davis]
Tell me, why am I to blame?
Aren't we supposed to be the same?
That's why I will never tame
This thing that's burning in me

[Chorus: Davis]
I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me

[Verse 2: Davis]
Sometimes I can never tell
If I got something after me
That's why I just beg and plead
For this curse to leave me
[Pre-Chorus: Davis]
Tell me, why am I to blame?
Aren't we supposed to be the same?
That's why I can never tame
This thing that's burning in me

[Chorus: Davis]
I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me

[Bridge: Davis]
Betrayed, I feel so enslaved
I really tried, I did my time
I did my time, I did my time
I did my time, I did my time

[Chorus: Davis]
I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me

[Chorus: Davis]
Oh God, the anger's changing me
Oh God, the anger's changing me
