Verse 1
Fear can drive stick and it's taking me down this road
A road down which I swore I'd never go
And here I sit thinking of God knows what
Afraid to admit I might self-destruct
Pre Chorus:
So lock the windows and bolt the door
Cuz I've got enough problems without creating more
Chorus
I feel like I was born to devastation and reform
Destroying everything I loved and the worst part is
I pull my heart out, reconstruct and in the end it's nothing but
The shell of what I had when I first started
Interlude
Verse 2
Usually I'll cause my own first hit it seems to me to be slightly masochistic
But there'd be no story without all this dissension
So I inflict the conflict with the utmost of contemption
(Pre Chorus) (Chorus)
Bridge
Thank you God for giving me the insight
So I might make these wrongs right
If and when there ever is a next time
Cuz failure is a blessing in disguise
Pull my heart out, reconstruct
And in the end it's nothing but
The shell of what I had when I first started
The shell of what I had when I first started
(Chorus)
Outro
When I first started
The shell of what I had when I first started
