I was born without a voice I was told I had no choice And my mind was always made up Because I always gave up Get in line, single file Bite your tongue, try not to hold back a smile Is this how we're supposed to be? a product of a family tree I always tell myself not to just give in I contradict everything that I've wanted But it seems too easy to keep the hand feeding me Day after day I keep complaining and I'll still be waiting I can't take credit for something I read and Recited for my own wealth and recognition I try too hard to be somebody else's The feeling suffocates It helps the pressure build I'm running out of time, I can't sit still Don't cross your boundaries ideals have found me To become just another statistic Consciously accepting, willingly neglecting Everything I try to give up I'm a loser, I'm fucking scum I get off on having no fun Give me love, give me abuse Do I have the right to choose? The feeling suffocates It helps the pressure build I'm running out of time, I can't sit still

They think for you They speak for you Just try and think for yourself? A self righteous crusader Starts a self righteous crusade Still speaking? Cause I'm not listening while you think these empty words have meaning Recycled thoughts and a paper heart that you wear so proudly on your sleeve

Don't be so quick to identify me with everything that you see Its crippling my self esteem I'm not a hero, I'm not anything I'm only here to entertain an idea this is not who I am or what you think I'm supposed to be I can only admit that you're wrong I can only stand when I stand on my own Am i really so blind? stuck on the outside I'm done explaining, my words will only be left behind Don't even think for a minute that I'm asking to be A part of your collection So you can save the attention you're giving me If I'm not there, I know that I'm not welcome So i'm on my own just where i belong And I've been holding on to my last line I keep telling myself that I'm alright So feed me sympathy, so I can stop my begging I'm falling over, there's nothing left for me to prove
