    I felt it when they said
    (We only ever love you when you're seeing red)

    Seeing red

    You oughta know that I'm like a broken machine
    I'm not as bulletproof as you all paint me to be
    Time hasn't frozen
    Why do you want me to scream?
    Are you a junkie punk medicating for free?

    (We're all you need)
    (We'll make you royalty)
    (We'll be the best of enemies)

    Read me all my rights
    I'll never grow tired of your great advice
    Won't somebody tell me what I believe?
    I'm sorry for your sacrifice
    I guess I must've sounded like the Anti-Christ
    Won't somebody tell me
    Won't somebody tell me
    What I believe?

    No debts, all love, I don't give a fuck
    My head, my heart wouldn't be enough
    I won't think twice
    I'm afraid I'm the priest
    You're the poltergeist

    We're like one big family
    Gee, thanks so much (for the death threat)
    Do you hear the audacity?
    You dummies only live (on the internet)

    We're all (oh, yeah?)
    You need (that's right)
    We'll make you royalty (gimmie that gold)
    We'll be the best enemies

    Read me all my rights
    I'll never grown tired of your great advice
    Won't somebody tell me what I believe?
    I'm sorry for your sacrifice
    I guess I must've sounded like the Anti-Christ
    Won't somebody tell me
    Won't somebody tell me
    What I believe?

    (Are you happy now?)

    Rent free living in your head
    "R.I.P" they commented
    I felt it when they said
    "We only ever love you when you're seeing red"

    Heaven burning bright
    You've really gotta wonder how I sleep at night
    Won't somebody tell me
    Won't somebody tell me

    Read me all my rights
    I'll never grown tired of your great advice
    Won't somebody tell me what I believe?
    I'm sorry for your sacrifice
    I guess I must've sounded like the Anti-Christ
    Won't somebody tell me
    Won't somebody tell me
    What I believe
    (What I believe)
    What I believe
    All eyes on me
    What I believe Writer/s: Dan Searle, Sam Carter
