If you should see, who took the blame,
down on their knees, shot down in flames,
battered and bruised and out of the game.
People like these, again and again.
Tell 'em from me that I feel the same,
fucked up and used, driven half insane.
Don't listen to me, I got nothing to say.

Time to sleep but you're feelin' the waves,
the mind is weak 'cos you're stayin' awake.
I gotta conceed, get it out of the way.
Like mindless sheep driven in through the gates.
You are what you eat, what shit 'you eaten today?
Shovel it down 'til you're old and grey.
Don't give it to me, I've got enough on my plate.

It hurts my eyes when I walk into the Sun.
I don't feel like being anyone special, no.
I still beat my head like I've always done before,
a thousand times but I'm always back for more,
'cos I'm so clever?

Hung out to dry while you're eaten away,
by the parasite that left you totally drained.
Fueled by greed and driven by hate.
The lies you hear are given to you straight.
Nobody can see as the view dialates,
shit wrapped with a bow and you think it's great.
Don't give it to me, I've got enough on my plate.

It hurts my eyes when I walk into the Sun.
Same for you, it's the same for everyone.
Still beat my head tryin' to make some sense of it,
I don't mind jumping to my own defence, never. (x2)
