Before

The first time through
You can’t conceive
The more you view
The less you know what the hell you’re supposed to believe

And I cant control these power surges and urges holding me

‘Cause I don’t understand
And I’m not really sure
‘Cause I want to expand
But it’s hard to ignore
When you open your hand
You open your door
To every single demand
To every personal war
And we’re trying to stand
On this hole in the floor
I don’t know if we’ll land
We’ve never been here before...

We used to know the game
We understood the court
Now we compete for the blame
And playing Victim is our favorite new bloody sport

And I can’t patrol these little scourges and purges scolding me

I don’t want to say for sure until the case is through
I just have a feeling that the evidence will prove
The test has gone sour
Vying for power
Lying hour by hour…
