[Chorus]
It's not like me to feel this way
It's not like me to feel this way
It's not like me to feel this way
It's not like me to feel this way
Cruel compensation
Cruel compensation
[Verse]
I'm resistant now to change
Feeling different can be very strange
I am feeling a compelling urge
To enact some kind of purge
[Chorus]
It's not like me to feel this way
It's not like me to feel this way
Cruel compensation
Cruel compensation
[Verse 2]
Living a lie gets so easy to take
Because time has no friends, no beginning, no end
Perpendicular anomalies
Crowd my space and sap my energies
Take my weapon before I forget
I'll do something that we both regret
[Verse 3]
Dynamite to the intellect
With an NDA not to resurrect
But to purify, not eliminate
Through a mental disorder we struggle to elevate
[Chorus]
Cruel compensation
Cruel compensation
[Verse 4]
Dignity for the human race
Is like getting a leather boot in the face
It's an insult that no one should ever have to
Take from the man who shouts out a command for
Respect and compliance
An act of defiance
Is everything, but it's never enough
Without energy, it's the only acceptable
Answer, and it's never enough
And it feels like it's going to be tough
[Outro]
Feel this way
Feel this way
It's not like me—
It's not like me to feel this way
Feel this way
It's not like me to feel this—
Everything needs to get turned upside—
Turned upside down
