[Verse 1]
The hating and the waiting, hesitating
I just wanna be done with you
Faking for the taking but I'm waking
Up to the fact that you're lying and denying
Justifying all the actions you take
It's pathetic and poetic
[Pre-Chorus]
It's just sick
It's just sick
[Chorus]
Is compromise something you don't understand?
You force your hand but my eyes are wide open
Caught in the web of your self-serving plan
Don't force my hand when my eyes are wide open
[Verse 2]
Seeing is believing, now I'm leaving
All the damage is done
You've broken any notion of trust
Cause you're lying and denying
Justifying all the actions you take
It's pathetic and poetic
[Pre-Chorus]
It's just sick!
It's just sick!
[Chorus]
Is compromise something you don't understand?
You force your hand but my eyes are wide open
Caught in the web of your self-serving plan
Don't force my hand when my eyes are wide open
[Breakdown]
Seeing is believing, now I'm leaving
All the damage is done
All the damage done
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
All the damage done
[Chorus]
Is compromise something you don't understand?
You force your hand but my eyes are wide open
Caught in the web of your self-serving plan
Don't force my hand when my eyes are wide open
[Outro]
Don't force my hand when my eyes are wide open
(Force my hand…)
(Eyes are wide open…)
The lying and denying is just sick
The lying and denying is just sick
It's just sick
