[Verse 1:]
Had enough of kneeling
Had enough
Had enough of denial
I'm not alright but I'm not gonna lie
I don't know that I ever was
All alone, I've waited, all alone
Held it in as I played by your rules
I've been biting my lip but I'm losing my grip
I'm coming down, down, down
[Chorus:]
When all the hate burns off, I'm left here with the pain
Behind our vain devices, aren't we all the same?
Change me into something I believe in
Change me so I don't have to pretend
[Verse 2:]
Take a breath, I'll treat you, play along
But I'm a terrible liar
I feel the world like a brick on my chest
And the party's just begun
Throw the rope, I'm wading through the mud
From your mouth flow a thousand truths
But you know, there's only one
[Chorus:]
When all the hate burns off, I'm left here with the pain
Change me into something I believe in
Change me so I don't have to pretend
Sweet words, they mean nothing, they're not true
'Cause the game is over
[Outro:]
I want it all or I want nothing at all
Maybe I can...
Change me into something I believe in
Change me so I don't have to pretend
Your sweet words they mean nothing, save your breath
The game is over
