[Verse 1]
I had your back, but it's no use
False accusations are on the loose
You know what?
It makes no sense that you tied your own noose
You never felt the sores decay
Your perfect world is ending today
So what?

[Lead – Holt]
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Is this your paradise?
You think you thought this through?
'Cause when you rolled the dice

Don't care what you do or say

Hindsight just laughs at you

You panic lit the fuel
Now it's you against you
[Chorus 2]
You against you

Shitty time to make a stand
All without a master plan, just you
You against you
[Lead – Holt/King]
[Verse 3]
These seeds are what you've sown
Never should have lit that fuse
Enjoy your paradise
This hell is just for you
[Chorus 2]
You against you
Wasn't looking for a fight
But I'm showing up tonight
Shitty time to make a stand
All without a master plan, just you
You against you
[Lead – King]
