These days, 
I'm gettin' older
Before my time
To say, I'm gettin' stronger
Would be a lie
I think, you're tryin' to break me
Seems so unreal
Don't know how to take me
Don't know how 
I feelLook around you
Do you see what 
I see?Other people think you try to
Make a fool of me
It seems to take so long
Till anything gets done
Why do I have to lose to get things
I've never won?
I'm defeated again
I see the look on your face
I've got that feelin' again
My mouth has a bad taste
Look around you
Do you see what 
I see?Other people think you try to
Make a fool of me
My hope in empty promise
Put me to shame
I know, it's what you wanted
I need the pain
I was gonna be someone
You held me down
Didn't want me to move on
You let me drown
Look around you
Do you see what 
I see?Other people think you try to
Make a fool of me
Look around you
Do you see what 
I see?Other people think you try to
Make a fool of me
