lyrics

Take me as I am
I am just a man
Trying to find my way
Falling down on my face
I get up again
And I'm dusting it off
All of the ash
All of the smoke
From the attacks
That the world has leveled on me
Stealing innocence like a thief

I am standing on my own feet
Screaming out in silence
But it doesn't feel like anybody sees me
Standing with my monsters
Us against the dangers
And they will be with me 'til the very bitter end
My friends

Everyday I put it on
A smile on my face
Like a suit of armor
Protecting me from this place
And the critical eyes
And hypocrites
Saying that I don't seem to fit in
With all their lofty expectations
But I'm faking it the best I can

I am standing on my own feet
Screaming out in silence
But it doesn't feel like anybody sees me
Standing with my monsters
Us against the dangers
And they will be with me 'til the very bitter end
My friends
