Dog eat dog

Cleave me in two I know what I asked for But I haven't gotten it yet So take me for truth And I'll play defensive If it leads me out of my head I know what I'm doing But everyone's always breathing down my neck I wanna be new And I want something typical to keep me in check But that's just the way that it goes I get that nobody knows I wanna stop, take it home I'm sick of playing so dumb But I can't ever seem to give myself a rest I'm falling out of my comfort now I'm falling out But I can't keep going on this exhausted Hang my head and tuck my tail between my legs And the sight and smell are making me nauseous So I'll sing my tune 'til the sensation goes away And I could tie myself to a target It'd be so nice to feel like something's after me And I can't help but think it's just what you wanted We're both alive, why can't we both just be at peace? Weave me from you I can't be in a million places at once So tell me the truth I don't need to know anything except who's won And I know it's your rules You don't need me to tell you that I've been outdone That just seems too cruel I'm too tired of all of this to turn and run But that's the way that it goes I get that nobody knows I wanna stop, take it home (I'm sick of playing so dumb) (But I can't ever seem to give myself a rest) (I'm falling out of my comfort now) (I'm falling out) (I'm sick of playing so dumb) (But I can't ever seem to give myself a rest) (I'm falling out of my comfort now) (I'm falling out) Pull my eyes from their sockets You'll see everything I do at once And if you wanted me off it I'll be there in a couple of months So I'll fix my back to a target I can keep playing jester for fun And if anything's left to the harvest I can give it everything it wants Everything it wants Everything I wasn't Everything is gone But everything is nothing Everything it wants Everything I wasn't Everything is gone And everything means nothing Everything it wants Everything I wasn't Everything is gone But everything is nothing Everything it wants Everything I wasn't Everything is gone And everything means nothing
