"I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat"

Take a look at me father 
Sitting right on the heights of despair 
Prematurely faithless, worn out, dead 
I ain’t the proud man you swear I’d be 

The shadows I called friends 
Just paint myself into a corner 
And if it’s as [bad word] as it may seem 
I’ll cast the first stone before they make me fade (FADE) 

Cheating fate, 
Fighting out of boredom ‘til your spirit breaks (BREAKS) 
Is this worth the risk of living ? 

Take my rage out 
Take my pain away 

Sad are only those who understand 
Face the facts! 

I’ll never drown in their [bad word] old BURNING LIES 
“Boy you must put your fists down 
Resign yourself and let go” (BURNING LIES) 

Ain’t nothing grand in this life 
But oppression and bad blood (BURNING LIES) 
Why should I love this world back 
While it pushes me off track (BURNING LIES) 

Father how can you breath, 
When you can’t find strength to live 
UNLOVED, UNCHEKABLE ?
