the world?
who ya think you are?
you are just another p.o.s. like me
feel the sickness that i have inside
did i say you matter, well i guess i lied
who wants to tell me i can't give a big f**k in to
the world?
Don't try to save my life
So you can feel alive
its no body's right to tell me how im suppose ta
feel
get away just ta fool
you dont even know whats real
see how f**ked up i am inside
dont even try to disect my mind
its no body's right to tell me how im suppose ta

Don't try to save my life
So you can feel alive
