[Intro]

Stepping out of my ego

Ego

[Verse 1]

Coming in evil I might go off the rails

I might just burn him down and start from scratch

Take a dive, make a deal

To see how it feels

I might just test the waters, I might just pull out my hair

I just might pretend to be evil, see if anybody would care

Cause I bit the hand that feeds, only to find it was attached to me

It’s funny how I can be all I need, I am the best force in this body

Yeah yeah yeah I’m self-sustaining, glory-obtaining, I am the itch on your brain

I am the only way out, three faces stacked behind one, I’m the best of the sum

[Chorus]

Everything’s so good now

We’re doing just fine

So when I brеak down

Everyone will know why

I’m trying to help you

Don’t want us to diе

But you’ve got me confined

Everything’s so good now

We’re doing just fine

So when I break down

Everyone will know why

I’m trying to help you

Don’t want us to die

But you’ve got me confined

Stepping out of my ego

[Verse 2]

I have to refine you, I turn your raw desire to conformity

And no I never liked you, but you’re only alive because of me

We can’t think like this, either we obey the world or we meet our demises

And hell is when you pluralize this, cause how many times do we have to digress?

How could you let this happen?

How could you let this fail so well?

I’m so used to rejection, I’ll probably bring a ladder to hell

Take this guilt I’m sure you’ll never grasp it

Curb that monster, never let it happen

We’re all part of this structure, if one goes down then we all go under

[Chorus]

Everything’s so good now

We’re doing just fine

So when I break down

Everyone will know why

I’m trying to help you

Don’t want us to die

But you’ve got me confined

Everything’s so good now

We’re doing just fine

So when I break down

Everyone will know why

I’m trying to help you

Don’t want us to die

But you’ve got me confined

[Bridge]

Won't you just give into me?

You'll never learn from victory

Won't you just give into me?

You'll never learn from victory

[Outro]

How many times do I have to fight you?

How many times until I can shine through?

How many times do you have to kill me?

How many times do I have to deny you?

Deny your existence, hope that no one notices I’m missing

Everybody’s here but they’re never gonna listen

Everybody hears but they’re never gonna listen

This is not the be-all end-all, this is not where everybody’s fine

This is just the high point of my life, those are just wasted years gone by, so wave as they go

Because nobody wants to see me cry, too sappy

But nobody cares if I die unhappy

Feelings are heavy and they’ll always hurt, so put in the work

I call it passion, you call it violent

Which one of us do you think will be thriving?

In five years time when the crowds have all parted, and nobody here will care how it started

I come back now with a price on my head, with blood on my hands and a limp in my step

Cause you broke me down, took two years off my life, but when I come out that side you’ll still be behind
