From the recording Control
Lyrics
I always end up in the background
I just wish that I was special like you
So sick of being treated this way
Stop and listen to the words I'm saying
im so sick of being treated this way
Stop and listen to the words I'm saying
im so sick of trying to find a new way
Took a stand, but you don't see it that way
Im so sick of being treated this way
But this time my voice won't end up in the background
Im gonna burn this motherfucker down
Riot
A social contract in the street
Bleeding out for all to see
Crying out before you
Again its time to look at me
But still you turn your eyes away, consciously avoid my gaze
Pretend like it was all a dream and coax yourself right back to sleep
But its not supposed to be this way
It was never supposed to be this way
It was never supposed to be this way
Wake up, wake up, enough
no we're not gonna take it
