  • Realized I can never win
    Sometimes feel like I have failed
    Inside, where do I begin?
    My mind is laughing at me

    Tell me, why am I to blame?
    Aren't we supposed to be the same?
    That's why I will never tame
    This thing that's burning in me

    I am the one who chose my path
    I am the one who couldn't last
    I feel the life pulled from me
    I feel the anger changing me

    Sometimes I can never tell
    If I've got something after me
    That's why I just beg and plead
    For this curse to leave me

    Tell me, why am I to blame?
    Aren't we supposed to be the same?
    That's why I will never tame
    This thing that's burning in me

    I am the one who chose my path
    I am the one who couldn't last
    I feel the life pulled from me (that's burning in me)
    I feel the anger changing me

    Betrayed, I feel so
    Enslaved, I really tried
    I did my time
    I did my time

    I did my time
    I did my time
    I did my time

    I am the one who chose my path
    I am the one who couldn't last
    I feel the life pulled from me (that's burning in me)
    I feel the anger changing me

    Oh God, the anger's changing me
    Oh God, the anger's changing me Writer/s: Brian Welch, David Silveria, James Shaffer, Jonathan Davis, Reginald Arvizu
