Rat Race

I don’t live wanna live a lie
I’m diving into what seems like hell againI’m still waking up in the same place, stuck in the rat race
Seeing the same old shit
Everyday is a headache, feeling my soul take hits I can’t withstand
When will the tide change for my own sake?
The pain is relentless
Can someone stop me from falling head first over the precipiceThis isn’t how I wanted to be
Rejection inside, reflects what I see
Show me the path that I was meant to lead
The fire inside, it’s all that I breatheDon’t listen to them it’s their apathy
Holding you back when I’m stuck in this misery
All I can teach you is mistakes are memories
Follow your heart again, reclaim the light I needNow you know what it’s like to be a stranger with no home
I feel the fire, it’s coursing through my throat
Can you hear the cry my soul makes? It’s weeping all aloneBreaking down my walls and it pulls me away
To an ocean surrounding this abysmal ache
In the end, this is hell(This is hell)Almost human
It’s how we’re engineered
Chemistry brings us safety
You can’t delete what we fear
Our vision ever-changingTeleport to a world away
We’re leaving, retreating in a whirlwindEvery day we fucking compromise
So sick and tired of feeling that I’m not alive
My conscious blurs the line between the truth and lies
Fantasy, I want to live a life beyond the stars
Reality, always searching for an exitI wanna see the skies of other lands
And not pretend
Please understandHuman sense, take it back
Programmed lies, system hack
All these versions of my past
Yearn for answers I don’t haveTeleport to a world away
We’re leaving, retreating in a whirlwind
I’m loosing my grip and there’s nothing to say
We’re healing, believing in our own skinOur rebellion has no endRusted shells obscure
Networks of hollow core
We’re all dead and gone
(We’re dead and gone)Teleport to a world away
We’re leaving, retreating in a whirlwind
I’m loosing my grip and there’s nothing to say
We’re healing, believing in our own skinWe’re all dead and gone
