Songtexte

I used to be an optimist
So centered on the positive
A silver lining addict, now I've had it
Jaded habits and slaughtered rabbits
You want a little luck for free
Feel fine taking advantage of me
Malevolent acts
Take an ax to a tree
I'm falling, and taking you down with me
Nevers never been my strong suit
I'll never do it again
I'll never do it again
Can't pretend that I don't know how it ends
I'll never do it again
Maybe I could throw a fist
Frustrated, burnt out pacifist
You lit the fire, gave me desire
Never was a liar nor a fighter
Its seems so villainous
We're all trained to be idiots
Focus groups focus the youth
Glued to their screens give up their dreams
And flee the scene once so serene
I'll never do it again
I'll never do it again
Can't pretend that I don't know how it ends
I'll never do it again
Instead I'm asking
Why are we fighting each other?
Behind the glass there's a man
Drunk off his ass with power
Laughing while lining up the masses
Single file, single file, single file might take a while
Single file, single file, single file skip the trial
Single file, single file, single file might take a while
Single file, single file, single file wait a little longer
Never again
No, never again
I'll never do it again
Never believe again
