Put me in dirt I'm sick can't breath
Why do the expect the world of me
I try to find balance and I try to find peace
But I end up giving in
Sacrifice my needs
I'm back to circling the drain
My heart's beating out of pace
Now I think I've fried my brain
But the show must go on they hit play
Barely have any real friends
I can count them on my fingers (One, Two)
Though when I pull them down
It's the middle one pointed right back at the mirror
Now I'm stuck in my daydreams
And I know I'm gonna get hurt
'Cause the pressure's getting heavy
Walls are closing in around me (Cough, Cough)
Gotta fever
Wish I could escape my thoughts
But I can't find the exit door
Lost the key inside my mind
The re-runs are my horror show
'Cause ah, ah, ah, I'm dead alive
Like I'm another prototype
I smile 'cause that's just what they like
Ah, ah, ah, I'm dead alive
(Cough, cough)
Staring at the ceiling
And it's staring right back, ya
Me, I can't count sheep
'Cause I'm an insomniac
And the window to my soul
Has an itty bitty crack
When I let the light in
It all fades to black
Try to cut the puppet strings
But I'm tangled in the slack
Wish that I could break free
But this is all I have
Barely have any real friends
I can count them on my fingers (One, Two)
But when I pull them down
It's the middle one pointed right back at the mirror
Now I'm stuck in my daydreams
And I know I'm gonna get hurt
'Cause the pressures getting heavy
Walls are closing in around me (Cough, Cough)
Gotta fever
Wish I could escape my thoughts
But I can't find the exit door
Lost the key inside my mind
The re-runs of my horror show
'Cause ah, ah, ah, I'm dead alive
Like I'm another prototype
I smile 'cause that's just what they like
But ah, ah, ah, I'm dead alive
(My dreams don't let me sleep at night)
(Ah, ah, ah, I'm dead alive)
(They just won't let me sleep at night)
('Cause ah, ah, ah, I'm dead alive)
