Lyrics
Ditch the show
Time to go
Feel the sunshine on my face
On the street
Feel complete
Time to join the human race
Yet the news
On the hour
Is the same as yesterday
Why don?t I
Have the power
To colour in this grey
Ch)
So many others getting through
I?m just one step behind
I need the breaks to make it too
I?m just one step behind
While others save the world for lunch
I?m just one step behind
When it?s gone, then it?s gone
I?m just one step behind
V2)
Please renew
Don?t review
All my memberships to life
Must impress
Beat the best
Got to cut them like a knife
Tap my wires
Stoke my fires
For it?s open house for all
Gotta score
Open doors
Must be ready for that call
Ch )
Mid 8)
Open your eyes
And it?s no surprise
That you realise
You?ve now just lost the plot
And the beat
That you looped repeat
Life has clicked delete
Yes you have lost the lot
And the frame
At the Hall of Fame
Don?t have your name
Just everybody else
VAMP Ch)
I thought I understood the game
Yet the rules don?t stay the same
All that?s understood is pain!
V3)
I?d create
My own fate
But I?ve waited far too late
See the youth
So aloof
With their skins so bulletproof
Mustn?t rest
For this test
Fighting hard for second best
Gotta try
Reach the sky
Gotta make it ?for I die
