Pursuit of Happiness

Dig down deep into your pockets
Take out everything because I want it
Don't trust strangers in dark lit places
I swear its just a change of pace

On my own, I'm walking alone
Terribly lost, I'm just trying to get home
You lurk in the shadows, we lock eye to eye
You slowly approach me. Should I question why?

You don't deserve this, I'm hurting. I've earned it
I've witnessed everything. I'm highly concerned that
I'm deeper than I've ever been. One more step, and you'll be dead
You're turning me into stone. (Turning me into stone)

You're turning me into stone

You'll justify anything to fulfill your agenda, leaving your conscious behind

Don't let it go to your head
Building empires instead of
Empathy for smaller things, no need to conquer everything
Your sanities being mislead
Don't try to change my perception, you're in no position to

I'll take you for a ride in my brand new car
It was yours before, but now its mine
Push you down again, cuz I wanted too

Give me malice, give me your piece of mind
I'm inside talking daggers
My breathe as sharp as my wit
I'm going after what you cling so tight to your hip

"I'm not alone!" She screamed, reaching to her side
She grabbed a knife and looked me straight into the eye
I'm gonna walk away. And you'll do the same

Don't let it go to your head
Building empires instead of
Empathy for smaller things, no need to conquer everything
Your sanities being mislead
