I have nothing left to hide
Watched the flower wilt
Disrobed of all my pride
Left shackled with all the guilt
Living under a guise
Wouldn't have made it on my own
Without the aid of the wise
Even the bravest heroes have died alone
We all make the same mistakes
Yet we all pass it on
We only care for our own sake
Aimless they sling their barbs
Blind to the offence
Why is it so hard
To shed yourself of the arrogance
Ashamed of the past
At one point that was me
Fascinatingly fast
Anger blossoms out of insecurities
We all know all the steps
We'll be damned if we dance along
We'll never be in their debt
Wish you were here all along
Follow you around
Now it's alright
Treated so severely
With defiance you resist
Now I see it so clearly
You made a believer out of an atheist
Can't say that they'll get better
'Cause I don't know if and when
Our suffering gives them amusement
We'll live this life for revenge
We all know all the steps
We'll be damned if we dance along
We'll never be in their debt
Wish you were here all along
Follow you around
Now it's alright
I've gained new insight
Follow you around
