I scraped my knees while I was praying And found a demon in my safest haven Seems like it's getting harder to believe in anything Than just to get lost in all my selfish thoughts
I wanna know what it'd be like To find perfection in my pride To see nothing in the light But turn it off in all my spite, in all my spite I'll turn it off
And the worst part is, before it gets any better We're headed for a cliff And in the free fall I will realize that I'm better off when I hit the bottom
The tragedy, it seems unending I'm watching everyone I looked up to breaking, bending We're taking shortcuts and false solutions Just to come out the hero
Well I can see behind the curtain The wheels are cranking turning It's all wrong the way we're working Towards a goal, that's non-existent, it's non-existent But we just keep believing
turn it off † paramore
I scraped my knees while I was praying
And found a demon in my safest haven
Seems like it's getting harder to believe in anything
Than just to get lost in all my selfish thoughts
I wanna know what it'd be like
To find perfection in my pride
To see nothing in the light
But turn it off in all my spite, in all my spite
I'll turn it off
And the worst part is, before it gets any better
We're headed for a cliff
And in the free fall I will realize that
I'm better off when I hit the bottom
The tragedy, it seems unending
I'm watching everyone I looked up to breaking, bending
We're taking shortcuts and false solutions
Just to come out the hero
Well I can see behind the curtain
The wheels are cranking turning
It's all wrong the way we're working
Towards a goal, that's non-existent, it's non-existent
But we just keep believing
