Lyrics:
Fear can drive stick
And it's taking me down this road
A road down which
I swore I'd never go Verse 1
And here I sit
Thinking of God knows what
Afraid to admit
I might self-destruct
So lock the windows
And bolt the door
Cuz I've got enough problems Pre Chorus 1
Without creating more
I feel like I was born
To devastation and reform
Destroying everything I loved
And the worst part is Chorus
I pull my heart out, reconstruct
And in the end it's nothing but
The shell of what I had when I first started
Usually I'll cause my own first hit
It seems to me to be slightly masochistic
But there'd be no story
Without all this descension Verse 2
So I inflict the conflict
With the utmost of contemption
So lock the windows
And bolt the door
Cuz I've got enough problems Pre-Chorus 2
Without creating more
I feel like I was born
To devastation and reform
Destroying everything I loved
And the worst part is Chorus 2
I pull my heart out, reconstruct
And in the end it's nothing but
The shell of what I had when I first started
Thank you God
For giving me the insight
So I might make
These wrongs right Intermission
If and when
There ever is a next time
Cuz failure is a blessing in disguise
Pull my heart out, reconstruct
And in the end it's nothing but
The shell of what I had when I first started Interlude
The shell of what I had when I first started
I feel like I was born
To devastation and reform
Destroying everything I loved
And the worst part is Chorus
I pull my heart out, reconstruct
And in the end it's nothing but
The shell of what I had when I first started
When I first started
The shell of what I had when I first started Outro
THE END your done, now do it again. Then rate it. Now comment. Good job.
