Lyrics

Today your life's a riot
And you'll need to make a choice
They're seeking all your violence
But you can't listen to that voice
They're looking for a fight
And they will push you like before
But you know if you give in
You will lose yourself once more
Well
Not today
Not today
You're not gonna do this
No
Not again
Just nod away
And face the hate
You're not to blame
If everybody else is on the rage
Damn
Not again
Not again
You're not gonna lose it
No
Not today
Don't do this
You're about to go and break
Don't choose it
You're about to blow away
Today your life's a riot
But this time you are poised
You've built yourself to keep your calm
And block out all their noise
They're looking for reactions
And they want to start a war
Will you go release your rage
Or be stronger than before
Calm
You're hiding all your thoughts
You're choosing not to talk
The silent phase is just a play
To hide your inner warps
You're acting ever so plain
To keep their eyes away
To make out you're ok and
That's the way you want to stay
But somebody's pushing
All of your buttons are crushing
The blood in your veins is pulsing
Starting to change
Your eyes are erupting
You're tryna hold it back
To bury it under the hatch
Putting the lock on the latch
Bolted it down
Then all of a sudden you
Snap
Putting them all on their backs
Mind in a rage as you go to attack
Words aren't the way that you settle it now
All of their voices you're sick of the sound
You trying to bring yourself back
To pull yourself out of the black
But nothings escapes
Out of this place
Then all of a sudden you're calm
Calm
You're calmer than a storm
You've been this way before
You'll never show anyone flaws
Or let your anger take the floor
But everyone's breathing gas
You're playing around with a match
You're starting to change the tact
No running away
You're ready to raise the flag
Cause somebody's pushing
All of your buttons kept crushing
The blood in your veins is pulsing
Too late to change
Your eyes have erupted
You're trying to hold it back
To bury it under the hatch
Broken the lock on the latch
Let it all out
Then all of a sudden you
Snap
Then all of a sudden you're calm
Calm
You're hiding all your thoughts
You're choosing not to talk
The silent phase is just a play
To hide your inner warps
You're acting oh so plain
To keep their eyes away
To make out you're ok
And that's the way you want to stay
The way you want to stay
The way you want to
The way you want to
The way you want to
And that's the way
That we are flawed
One will just be angry
And the other will be calm
One will find peace
The other will seek harm
One will not release
All the pain inside their heart
But that's not you
Or at least one day you'll see
That no matter
What the world throws
You deserve to just be free
From all the the things that tear you
And drive you up the walls
For when you go to snap
Step back
Breathe
And pause
You're better than you think
Just because they bring you down
You still don't need to sink
Their level isn't worthy
And if they pick your flaws
Step back
Breathe
Do it twice
And pause
