Watch those idiosyncrasies
Watch all the idiots fall on me
Running out of ways to get outta the way
Take another shot just to stay the same
But I need some balance – Back it off
Fill your lungs ’til it makes you cough
Tell me everything’s gonna be alright
‘Cause I don’t think I’ll make it through tonight

The only way – Is all the way

Oh – my – God
It’s judgement day and I’m not prepared
Everybody out there’s running scared
So – Take a little bit off the top
I don’t care, just make it stop

I won’t give another soul… to you
I won’t give another life… to you
You have to stop
Stop!

Do one thing and say something cryptic
But the styles always clash
One thing I know for sure
The hypothetical won’t work anymore
One wrong move and they will pound!
My nails are tight inside my wrists
This sacrament is sacrilege and sentimental
Deity experimental – Faith is accidental

I won’t give another soul… to you
I won’t give another life… to you
I won’t give another thought… to you
I won’t give anymore of my hope… to you
