lyrics

You're a vicious snake, filling me with poison with every kiss
I bottled up the feelings that I dearly miss
When you bite the hand of innocence like you're some kind of saint
Be prepared to feel the universe retaliate

If you can't understand yourself, how can you understand me?
You think with your head, but I see the world through different eyes

Why do bad things happen to me when all I want is to do good?
Karma has a way with words, so speak your mind
When good things happen to me? I'm still dreaming and hoping for more
Existence is double-sided; an empty book, and we're the ones who write it

One pair of lost souls, one set of bones
These are the things that I fear most
Violence is the first instinct in a coward's brain
Is your faith really worth causing others pain?

Why do bad things happen to me when all I want is to do good?
Karma has a way with words, so speak your mind
When good things happen to me? I'm still dreaming and hoping for more
Existence is double-sided; an empty book, and we're the ones who write it

I'm unaware of the things I can't
I'm dying to know, so please enlighten me

Remember the things you've said, the things you've done
The wars you've won; you will always be the dirt on my feet

Why do bad things happen to me when all I want is to do good?
Karma has a way with words, so speak your mind
When good things happen to me? I'm still dreaming and hoping for more
Existence is double-sided; an empty book, and we're the ones who write it
