Testing Gravity

[Verse]

Everybody thinks you’re awesome

But you reckon that could not be right, just a lie

That they have made to aid ulterior motives

People wanted you to blossom

But you chose another way of life, just to try

To be alone with no one taking notice


[Pre-Chorus]

We’ve seen this all before

Let yourself identify your core

Or keep forcing the falsehood to hold you

We’ve been through this and more

Let us help your way out of this war

Where the soldiers who’re soullеss will fault you:


[Chorus]

Don’t you try to escape

You’re stuck likе a prey, a baited animal

Stay afraid of the subliminal

Sewn to live up to fate

To give up your name, your taste, your venom, all

To make your wasted minutes minimal


[Verse]

What a struggle to be famous

You burn your face off yet you’re recognized all the time

Imagine being so great that you deserve this

Testing gravity is dangerous

'Cause you will stumble into your demise, close your eyes

And you’ll remain in pain beneath the surface


[Pre-Chorus]

We’ve looked behind the doors

Seen what’s held by paradise in store

Waiting for you, with fortune, it calls you

We’ve been through this and more

Let’s root out that parasite of yours

‘Cause ignoring its torment controls you


[Chorus]

No, don’t try to escape

You’re stuck like a prey, a baited animal

So cave, your shame is broken after all

Sewn to live up to fate

To give up your name, your taste, your venom, all

To make your wasteful soul less miserable


[Bridge]

Oo-ooh, oo-ooh, ooh

Oo-ooh, oo-ooh, ooh

You’ve gone optimistic

Waiting for the time to come, when

You’re finally someone

You have long since missed it

Feeding off a lifeless orchard

This life is torture

Your time was wasted

You didn’t embrace it

Your minimum wage made you faceless

Well, you will try to escape

But it’ll all be in vain, insane, inimical

You either play a slave or stay a criminal


[Outro]

Mm-mmm, mm-mmm

Mmmm, ohh-ohh

Oh-ohh, oh-ohh, ohh
