I'm a hostage to my own beliefs
So before you give your love away
To a hostage in their own beliefs
Better turn around and walk away
Been around enough to know the afterlife
I had to go back for another fight
Holding onto breath because it only lasts me so long
I've been evaluated
And I'm valued by what I bring in
So take society
It's not the life that I want to lead
I feel you starting to let go
And my grip is all I have to show
But my hands are worn
Peeling back, they're paper thin
I'm trying to be more
I'm trying to not be the loss I am
I always knew that I was different
I always knew that you'd be there
I always knew that we would make it
I always knew it would not be fair
I always knew it would not be fair
It's not that I'm tired
Because I could go for years
It's not that I'm over it
It's the moaning fear
Singing to me every morning
Sing it to me every night
Yell it at my reflection
Disgusted by the trail of waste I can't hide
Been around enough to know the afterlife
I had to go back for another fight
Holding onto breath because it only lasts me so long
I've been evaluated
And I'm valued by what I bring in
So take society
It's not the life that I want to lead
I always knew that I was different
I always knew that you'd be there
I always knew that we would make it
I always knew it would
I'm picking up the pieces
Even if they don't all fit
And I'll put them all together
Regardless of the shape they're in
And life will hand you mayhem
And you have to make it work
But it's not life just society
And we're all slaves to what we earn
I've been evaluated
And I'm valued by what I bring in
I've been evaluated
And I'm valued by what I bring in
I've been evaluated
And I'm valued by what I bring in
I've been evaluated
I've been evaluated
