[Verse 1]
Truth will be concealed
I refuse to feel
To suffer is human, I'm using excuses
Anticipate the war
Control the burn before it gets to you
Before dependencies weigh down on me
[Chorus]
Life is so unfair, there's always something I can blame
Now ask yourself; how did you hide today?
I control my own fear and my shame
Naked in a world that doesn't owe me anything
[Verse 2]
Give all you got
Get nothing back
Footprints will leave no impression
Without a weight that I will have to choose to bear
I succumb to short term benefits, left with long term deficit
The choices I made are not made to help
A bottomless pit always has further down
Save me from myself
Save me from myself
(Groan, like my foundation stone)
[Chorus]
Life is so unfair, there's always something I can blame
Now ask yourself; how did you hide today?
I control my own fear and my shame
Naked in a world that doesn't owe me anything
[Breakdown]
Groan, like my foundation stone
Groan, like my foundation stone
Getting crushed
Getting crushed
Crushed
[Pre-Chorus]
Anticipate the war
Control the burn before it gets to you
Before dependencies weigh down on me
[Chorus]
Life is so unfair, there's always something I can blame
Now ask yourself; how did you hide today?
I control my own fear and my shame
Naked in a world that doesn't owe me anything
