(Breathe in, Breathe out)

(Breathe in, Breathe out)

Board up your windows but I'm telling you

That it's not gonna do a thing.

It always finds you, but it all depends

On how you battle with the pressure.

You take a left and it's standing in the way

You try to shake it off, but it seems to wanna stay

Your poker face could make them melt

Just sit back and deal with the hand you're dealt.

Face Facts, it won't be easy this time.

Sticks like a tack in the back of my mind.

Hurts so deep when I think too much

And breathing gets harder.

Take a look at me

From one side I seem to be

So calm, so cool, collected

And on the other side, I'm melting down

Stop and think about it

You only have one life

So why mistake it

As something negative?

I am my own worst enemy

Paranoid, can't avoid this killing spree.

I am a victim, but I choose to be

My favorite weapon, lies behind my teeth.

I strive to solve myself

So chin up and deal with the hand you're dealt.

Face Facts, it won't be easy this time.

Sticks like a tack in the back of my mind.

Hurts so deep when I think too much

And breathing gets harder.

Take a look at me, from one side I seem to be

So calm, so cool, collected

And on the other side

I'm melting down. Until then, I will choose to display

All these feelings that I hate

You think you know me but you don't

So look who's laughing now.

Ladies and Gentlemen! Boys & Girls!

Lend me your eyes and ears

I have something to tell you!

Please listen up, right now.

Don't you dare close it off

I can never get enough

When they close cold eyes

Is when I will give it up.

Don't you dare close it off

I can never get enough.

Don't you dare close it off

I can never get enough

When they close cold eyes

Is when I will give it up.

Don't you dare close it off

I can never get enough, get enough.

Take a look at me, from one side I seem to be

So calm, so cool, collected

And on the other side

I'm melting down. Until then, I will choose to display

All these feelings that I hate

You think you know me but you don't.

Take a look at me, from one side I seem to be

So calm, so cool, collected

And on the other side

I'm melting down. Until then, I will choose to display

All these feelings that I hate

You think you know me but you don't

So look who's laughing now.
