Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Had enough, I've really had enough

Had enough of denial

I'm not alright but I'm not gonna lie

I don't know that I ever was

All alone, I've waited, all alone

Held it in as I played by your rules

I've been biting my lip

But I'm losing my grip

I'm coming down, down, down

When all the hate burns off

I'm left here with the pain

Behind our vain devices

Are we all the same?

...

Change me into something I believe in

Change me so I don't have to pretend

Take a breath and try to play along

But I'm a terrible liar

I feel the world like a brick on my chest

And the party's just begun

Throw the rope I'm wading

Through the mud

From your mouth flow a thousand truths

But you know

There's only one

...

When all the hate burns off

I'm left here with the pain

...

Change me into something I believe in

Change me so I don't have to pretend

Sweet words, they mean nothing, they're not true

'Cause the game is over

...

I want it all or I want nothing at all

Maybe I can

Change me into something I believe in

Change me so I don't have to pretend

Your sweet words, they mean nothing, save your breath

The game is over

...
