lyrics

Here we go. Another day. To fall apart. To fade away.
Insecure. Susceptible. And still we go.
More Work. Less Pay. More Things. To fade away.
Immature. Corruptible. Surely you know. Listen Up!

I'm in the middle of
A total break down
can't you see
I don't want to go down into the hole.
The weight of the world is on my shoulders, and I break down.


Giving up. Giving in. A lottery. You never win.
Game of chance. Game of life. That's what we play.
Wound up. Worn thin. More games. You didn't win.
Play nice. Play the fool. But don't break the rules. Listen Up!

I'm in the middle of
A total break down
can't you see
I don't want to go down into the hole.
The weight of the world is on my shoulders, and I break down.

One day. You realize. No one cares. Everyone dies.
Cracking up. Wearing down. It's inevitable.
Open mind. And open eyes. It's all the same. There's not a prize.
Learn to live. Learn to cope. Learn to push when they pull.

Strange as it seems, I really want to hold on
To the last bit of human I can feel, so I go…
Solo

Hey!
I'm in the middle of
A total break down
can't you see
I don't want to go down into the hole.
The weight of the world is on my shoulders, and I break down.
The weight of the world is on my shoulders, and I break down.
