The more you try to fight it, he more you try to hide it

The more infected, rejected, you feel alone inside it

You know you can't deny it: the world's a little more

n.c.

[VERSE 2]
E7
The way you look us over, your counterfeit composure
E7
Pushing again and again and sinking lower and lower

Em
You want a little of it, you just can't let go of it
E
You've got an ego to feed
E7
Too late to rise above it
Em7
Don't look now but the little girl's got a grenade

We stand undefined
