[Intro: Mike Shinoda]
You go too fast
[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda, Chester Bennington]
I watch how the moon sits in the sky in a dark night
Shining with the light from the sun
Sun doesn't give light to the moon assuming
The moon's gonna owe it one
Makes me think of how you act to me
You do favors, then rapidly
Just turn around and start askin' me about
Things that you want back from me
[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda Chester Bennington]
I'm sick of the tension, sick of the hunger (Sick, sick, sick)
Sick of you actin' like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed (Find)
While I find a place to rest
[Chorus 1: Chester Bennington & Mike Shinoda]
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
(You'll see it's not meant to be)
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda, with Chester Bennington]
Maybe someday, I'll be just like you and
Step on people like you do
Run away all the people I thought I knew
I remember back then who you were
Used to be calm, used to be strong
Used to be generous, you shoulda known
That you'd wear out your welcome
And now, you see how quiet it is all alone
[Pre-Chorus: Mike Shinoda, Chester Bennington]
I'm so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you actin' like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest
I'm so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger
Sick of you actin' like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed
While I find a place to rest (Yeah)
[Chorus 2: Chester Bennington, Mike Shinoda, both]
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
(You'll see it's not meant to be)
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
[Interlude: Chester Bennington]
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
[Bridge: Chester Bennington]
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
You try to take the best of me, go away
[Chorus 2: Chester Bennington, Mike Shinoda, both]
I wanna be in another place
I hate when you say you don't understand
(You'll see it's not meant to be)
I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy
A place for my head
[Outro: Chester Bennington & Mike Shinoda]
Stay away (Ready?)
I am so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger (Sick)
Sick of you actin' like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed (Oh)
While I find a place to rest
I'm so sick of the tension, sick of the hunger (Why?)
Sick of you actin' like I owe you this
Find another place to feed your greed (Stay away from me)
While I find a place to rest (Mothafucka)
